Abstract
An imaging device includes an imaging portion that images a subject; a positional information acquisition portion that acquires positional information of an imaging position; a control portion which acquires information on the subject based on the positional information, and displays image data of the subject and the information on the subject on a display portion; and a hold control portion that outputs a hold control signal, which holds the image data of the subject and the information on the subject, to the control portion.
Claims24
An imaging device comprising:
- a body;
- an imager;
- a display;
- and
- a computer configured to
- display, on the display, (i) a real-time image acquired via the imager capturing a subject and (ii) subject information acquired based on a result of an image recognition for the real-time image,
- hold, on the display, the real-time image and the subject information displayed on the display based on an action detection of at least one of (i) a movement of a detected characteristic point of the real-time image in a preset distance in a time of a preset range, (ii) a change of a detected contrast of the real-time image, (iii) a change in an image pattern of the real-time image, which is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, (iv) a change of a position and/or a posture of the body, (v) a detection by a sensor of a motion of the body, (vi) a user action in which a button is pressed down, and (vii) a user action in which a touch panel is touched, and
- continue displaying the held real-time image and the held subject information on the display after the action detection.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a program that allows a computer to execute functions of an imaging device so that the computer executes the steps comprising:
- acquiring subject information based on a result of an image recognition for a real-time image, which is acquired via an imager of the imaging device capturing a subject;
- displaying the real-time image and the subject information on a display;
- holding, on the display, the real-time image and the subject information displayed on the display based on an action detection of at least one of (i) a movement of a detected characteristic point of the real-time image in a preset distance in a time of a preset range, (ii) a change of a detected contrast of the real-time image, (iii) a change in an image pattern of the real-time image, which is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, (iv) a change of a position and/or a posture of the body, (v) a detection by a sensor of a motion of the body, (vi) a user action in which a button is pressed down, and (vii) a user action in which a touch panel is touched;
- and
- continuing displaying the held real-time image and the held subject information on the display after the action detection.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a program that allows a computer to execute functions of an imaging device so that the computer executes the steps comprising:
- acquiring subject information based on a result of an image recognition for a subject image, which is imaged via an imager of the imaging device;
- displaying the subject image and the subject information on a display;
- holding, on the display, the subject image and the subject information displayed on the display when a change in an image pattern, which is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, is detected, or when a motion of the body is detected by a sensor;
- and
- continuing displaying the held subject image and the held subject information on the display after the detection.

An information acquisition system comprising:
- an imaging device which includes an imager, a body, a display and a computer;
- a database;
- wherein the computer is configured to
- display a subject image acquired via the imager and subject information acquired based on a result of an image recognition for the subject image;
- store the subject image and the subject information in the database, while the subject image and the subject information is displayed on the display, based on an action detection of at least one of (i) a movement of a detected characteristic point of the subject image, (ii) a change of a detected contrast of the subject image, (iii) a change in an image pattern of the subject image, (iv) a user action in which a button is pressed down, (v) a user action in which the display is touched, (vi) a user action of operating a panel.

An imaging device comprising:
- a body;
- an imager;
- a display;
- and
- a computer configured to
- display, on the display, (i) a real-time image acquired via the imager capturing a subject and (ii) subject information acquired based on a result of an image recognition for the real-time image,
- hold, on the display, the real-time image and the subject information displayed on the display based on an action detection of at least one of (i) a movement of a detected characteristic point of the real-time image in a preset distance in a time of a preset range, (ii) a change of a detected contrast of the real-time image, (iii) a change in an image pattern of the real-time image, which is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, (iv) a change of a position and/or a posture of the body, (v) a detection by a sensor of a motion of the body, (vi) a user action in which a button is pressed down, and (vii) a user action in which a touch panel is touched, and
- switch between a first mode and a second mode based on an action by which an icon displayed on the display is touched or an action by which a button provided on the body is pressed-down, the first mode in which the real-time image and the subject information are displayed, the second mode in which the subject information is not displayed.
