Image management apparatus and system, and method for controlling display of captured image
First Claim
1. An image management apparatus for controlling a display of a captured image, the apparatus connected to a communication terminal through a network, the apparatus comprising:
- a receiver to receive, from the communication terminal, an instruction for displaying a drawn image drawn by a user on a captured image while the captured image is being displayed to the user, the captured image being a full spherical panoramic image; and
circuitry togenerate an attachment image containing the drawn image, andattach the attachment image containing the drawn image to the captured image, the attachment image containing the drawn image being a planar image,wherein the circuitry is configured to attach the attachment image to the captured image along a normal of a straight line passing through a center of the drawn image and a reference position, the reference position representing a point of view from which a predetermined area of the captured image is within a field of view.

Abstract
An image management apparatus controls a display of a captured image, the apparatus being connected to a communication terminal through a network. The apparatus includes a receiver and circuitry. The receiver receives, from the communication terminal, an instruction for displaying a drawn image drawn by a user on a captured image while the captured image is being displayed to the user, the captured image being a full spherical panoramic image. The circuitry generates an attachment image containing the drawn image, and attaches the attachment image containing the drawn image to the captured image, the attachment image containing the drawn image being a planar image.

5. An image management system for controlling a display of a captured image, comprising one or more processors configured to:
-
receive, from a communication terminal, an instruction for displaying a drawn image drawn by a user on a captured image while the captured image is being displayed to the user, the captured image being a full spherical panoramic image;
whereingenerate an attachment image containing the drawn image; and attach the attachment image containing the drawing image to the captured image, the attachment image having the drawn image being a planar image wherein the one or more processors are configured to attach the attachment image to the captured image along a normal of a straight line passing through a center of the drawn image and a reference position, the reference position representing a point of view from which a predetermined area of the captured image is within a field of view.

6. A method for controlling a display of a captured image, comprising:
-
receiving, from a communication terminal, an instruction for displaying a drawn image drawn by a user on a captured image while the captured image is being displayed to the user, the captured image being a full spherical panoramic image; generating an attachment image containing the drawn image; and attaching the attachment image containing the drawn image to the captured image, the attachment image containing the drawn image being a planar image, wherein the attaching step includes attaching the attachment image to the captured image along a normal of a straight line passing through a center of the drawn image and a reference position, the reference position representing a point of view from which a predetermined area of the captured image is within a field of view.
