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

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18028486 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing device for vehicles that can process images captured by an imaging unit on the vehicle.

  • The device includes an image acquisition unit that captures images.
  • It also has a target detection unit that can identify a specific region in the captured image that contains a target.
  • A classification identification unit is included to determine the type and size of the detected target.
  • Finally, a region determination unit is used to define the image processing region by adding a margin around the target region based on its classification.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing device includes: an image acquisition unit configured to acquire an image captured by an imaging unit mounted on a vehicle; a target detection unit configured to detect a target region including a target in the acquired image; a classification identification unit configured to identify classification including a type of the detected target and a size of the detected target region; and a region determination unit configured to determine a region obtained by adding a margin corresponding to the identified classification to the target region as an image processing region.
