Image-capture device, image-capture method, and image-capture program
First Claim
1. An image-capture device comprising:
- an image-capture section that captures an image of a subject;
a detector that detects a portion of the subject, the portion having a specific feature, from the image captured by the image-capture section;
an evaluator that determines a numerically expressed evaluation value of the specific feature of the portion detected by the detector;
a buffer section that temporarily stores delayed images corresponding to a predetermined amount of time; and
a recording-operation controller that controls the image-capture device to record image data including a predetermined delayed image in the buffer section, upon determining that the evaluation value satisfies a predetermined condition.

Abstract
An image-capture device includes: an image-capture section that captures an image of a subject; a detector that detects a portion of the subject, the portion having a specific feature, from the image captured by the image-capture section; an evaluator that determines a numerically expressed evaluation value of the specific feature of the portion detected by the detector; a buffer section that temporarily stores delayed images corresponding to a predetermined amount of time; and a recording-operation controller that controls the image-capture device to record image data including a predetermined delayed image in the buffer section, upon determining that the evaluation value satisfies a predetermined condition.

9. An image-capture method for an image-capture device, the method comprising the steps of:
-
capturing an image of a subject; detecting a portion of the subject, the portion having a specific feature; determining a numerically expressed evaluation value of the specific feature of the detected portion; determining whether or not the evaluation value satisfies a predetermined condition; determining a recording-start time; and recording image data from the recording-start time.

10. An image-capture program for causing an image-capture device to execute the steps of:
-
capturing an image of a subject; detecting a portion of the subject, the portion having a specific feature; determining a numerically expressed evaluation value of the specific feature of the detected portion; determining whether or not the evaluation value satisfies a predetermined condition; determining a recording-start time; and recording image data from the recording-start time.
