This abstract describes an apparatus that includes various components such as an imaging unit, drive unit, control unit, detection unit, correction unit, acquisition unit, and setting unit. The imaging unit acquires an image, while the drive unit is responsible for driving the imaging unit. The control unit controls the drive unit, and the detection unit detects any blur in the acquired image. The correction unit then corrects the detected blur. The acquisition unit acquires the drive velocity at which the drive unit operates, and the setting unit sets the detection unit accordingly. Specifically, if the drive velocity falls within a resonance velocity range where resonance occurs in the imaging unit, the detection unit is set to detect blur at a specific frequency band that corresponds to the blur caused by the resonance.
Abstract
An apparatus includes an imaging unit configured to acquire an image, a drive unit configured to drive the imaging unit, a control unit configured to control the drive unit, a detection unit configured to detect a blur of the acquired image, a correction unit configured to correct the detected blur of the image, an acquisition unit configured to acquire a drive velocity at which the drive unit drives the imaging unit, and a setting unit configured to set the detection unit. The setting unit sets the detection unit such that in a case where the drive velocity is in a resonance velocity range in which resonance occurs in the imaging unit, the detection unit detects the blur of the image at a first frequency band corresponding to a blur due to the resonance.

Main Inventor
Keisuke MATSUOKA
Brief explanation
This abstract describes an imaging apparatus that can communicate with a wireless terminal held by an object. The apparatus has two detection units - one that detects the position of the wireless terminal based on radio waves and another that detects the position of the object based on image data. A tracking unit controls the apparatus to track the position detected by either detection unit. A determination unit assesses the stability of detection by both units. If the stability of one unit is low, the control unit activates the other unit. If the stability of the other unit is high, the operation of the first unit is stopped.
Abstract
An imaging apparatus capable of communicating with a wireless terminal held by an object, comprising: a first detection unit configured to detect a position of the wireless terminal based on a direction of radio waves received from the wireless terminal held by the object; a second detection unit configured to detect a position of the object based on image data obtained by an imaging unit; a tracking unit configured to control the imaging apparatus so that a position detected by the first detection unit or the second detection unit is tracked; a determination unit configured to determine a stability of detection by the first and second detection units; and a control unit configured to, if the stability of detection by one from among the first and second detection units is determined to be less than a first value by the determination unit, cause the other detection unit to operate, and configured to stop the operation of the one detection unit if the stability of the other detection unit is determined to be a second value or above by the determination unit.
CONTROL APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF (18302251)
Main Inventor
Kyoko KOBAYASHI
Brief explanation
The abstract describes a control apparatus that is used to control the tracking shooting function of an image capturing apparatus. The control apparatus detects a subject in the captured image and tracks its movement by adjusting the capturing direction of the image capturing apparatus. However, if the subject is lost during tracking, the control apparatus performs certain processing. If the control apparatus can determine the direction in which the subject was moving before it was lost with a certain level of reliability, it uses this information to determine the capturing direction after the subject is lost.
Abstract
A control apparatus controls tracking shooting performed by an image capturing apparatus. The control apparatus detects a subject in an image obtained by the image capturing apparatus; tracks the subject by controlling a capturing direction of the image capturing apparatus based on the detected position of the subject; and performs predetermined processing when a lost state in which a subject is unable to be detected during tracking of the subject occurs. If it is possible to derive the direction of movement of a subject immediately before occurrence of the lost state, with the predetermined degree of reliability or higher, the control apparatus performs processing for determining the capturing direction of the image capturing apparatus after occurrence of the lost state based on the direction of movement.
