First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, executed by a computer, comprising:
- extracting a plurality of lines from each of a plurality of traveling-straight images that are acquired in advance from captured images that are acquired from an image capturing device carried in a vehicle and are stored in a storage unit along with speed data and acceleration data of the vehicle for each of the captured images, the speed data for the traveling-straight images exceeding a predetermined speed and the acceleration data for the traveling-straight images being less than a predetermined acceleration, indicating that the vehicle was traveling, while the traveling-straight images were captured, in a straight line among lines in which the vehicle was traveling, by performing a filter respectively on the traveling-straight images to generate an edge image data and then by performing a Hough transform on a central portion of the generated edge image data; and
determining an abnormal tilt of an image capturing direction of the image capturing device, based on a number of the extracted plurality of lines and a tilt of an axis that is the image capturing direction of the image capturing device, the tilt being detected from a magnitude of an angle that is an average of calculated angles between a vertical axis direction or a horizontal axis direction of a traveling-straight image and each of the extracted plurality of lines.

Abstract
An image processing device includes an acquisition unit, an extraction unit, and a detection unit. The acquisition unit acquires image data for each of frame numbers from a drive recorder or the like. The extraction unit extracts a plurality of straight lines from the image data on the basis of drive recorder information. The detection unit detects a tilt of an image capturing direction of a camera according to a magnitude of an angle between a vertical axis direction of the image data and the extracted plurality of lines.
