INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240127626 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that can select an image capturing a part other than the face of a target person among multiple images by using the position of the face image of a person other than the target person in the acquired image.

  • Acquisition unit for acquiring an image including a face image of a person
  • Selection unit for selecting an image capturing a part other than the face of a target person based on the position of the face image of a person other than the target person

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in security systems for identifying individuals based on specific features other than their face, such as body shape or clothing.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in efficiently identifying and selecting images that capture specific parts of individuals, which can be useful in various applications like surveillance and personal identification.

Benefits

- Improved accuracy in selecting images based on specific criteria - Enhanced security measures by focusing on unique identifying features other than the face

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing Security Systems with Image Selection Technology"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to image processing and selection techniques in the field of computer vision and surveillance systems.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology handle images with multiple people in them?

The patent application does not specify how the apparatus deals with images containing more than one person. It would be interesting to know if the selection unit can accurately identify and select the target person in such scenarios.

What is the processing time required for selecting the image with the desired criteria?

The patent application does not mention the processing speed of the apparatus in selecting the image based on specific criteria. Understanding the efficiency and speed of this technology would be crucial for its practical implementation.


Original Abstract Submitted

the information processing apparatus includes: an acquisition unit for acquiring an image including a face image of a person; and a selection unit for selecting the image in which the part other than the face of a target person is captured among the plurality of images by using the position of the face image of a person other than the target person in the acquired image.
