Image processing device, image processing method, and program

Abstract

There is provided an image processing device including a superimposition display position determining unit which determines a position of an object having a predetermined flat surface or curved surface out of an object imaged in an input image based on an environment map, a superimposition display image generating unit which generates a superimposition display image by setting superimposition display data at the position of the object determined by the superimposition display position determining unit, an image superimposing unit which superimposes the superimposition display image on a visual field of a user, an operating object recognizing unit which recognizes an operating object imaged in the input image, and a process executing unit which executes a process corresponding to an item selected based on a position of the operating object recognized by the operating object recognizing unit.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An image processing device comprising:
 a feature data storage unit which stores feature data indicating a feature of appearance of an object;   a superimposition display data storage unit which stores superimposition display data which is to be a source of an image that is superimposed on a visual field of a user and an item position which is a position of an item forming the superimposition display data;   an environment map generating unit which generates an environment map representing a position of one or more objects existing in a real space based on an input image obtained by imaging the real space using an imaging device and the feature data stored in the feature data storage unit;   a superimposition display position determining unit which determines a position of an object having a predetermined flat surface or curved surface out of an object imaged in the input image based on the environment map;   a superimposition display image generating unit which generates a superimposition display image by setting the superimposition display data at the position of the object determined by the superimposition display position determining unit;   an image superimposing unit which superimposes the superimposition display image on the visual field of the user;   an operating object recognizing unit which recognizes an operating object imaged in the input image; and   a process executing unit which executes a process corresponding to the item selected based on a position of the operating object recognized by the operating object recognizing unit.
