CONTROL APPARATUS, IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18458012 titled 'CONTROL APPARATUS, IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The control apparatus described in the patent application is designed to transition between two states for changing the angle of view of an image pickup apparatus based on user operation.

  • Memory stores instructions for the control apparatus.
  • Processor acquires the position of an object on the image and determines a target position for displaying the object when transitioning between states.

Original Abstract Submitted

A control apparatus for a system configured to transition between a first state for changing an angle of view of an image pickup apparatus according to an operation of a user and a second state for changing the angle of view so that an object is displayed at a target position on an image includes a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions to acquire a position of the object on the image, and determine the target position based on the position of the object on the image in a case where the system transitions from the first state to the second state.
