INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18025795 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing device, method, and program that can accurately calculate the distance between a photographing position and a target.

  • The device acquires the signal value of a specific pixel where the target is located in multiple frames taken over different time sections.
  • The distance calculation section uses the acquired signal values to calculate the distance between the photographing position and the target.
  • The innovation aims to improve the accuracy of distance calculation in photography.
  • The device can be used in various applications such as distance measurement in photography or object tracking.


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided an information processing device, an information processing method, and an information processing program which are capable of calculating the distance between a photographing position and a target with higher accuracy, and thus, are new and improved. The information processing device includes an acquisition section that acquires a signal value of a corresponding pixel where the same target is located in each of multiple frames which are obtained when a subject is photographed over multiple time sections, and a distance calculation section that calculates the distance between the photographing position and the target on the basis of the signal values acquired by the acquisition section.
