Abstract
Provided are an image conversion device, a camera, a video system, an image conversion method and a program which are capable of performing a desired image conversion even when the orientation of multiple regions within one image is to be changed in different directions. This system is provided with: a region dividing unit (13) which divides one inputted image into multiple regions, and an image conversion unit (14) which converts the image of at least one of the regions created by the region dividing unit (13) to an image imaged from a virtual viewpoint different from the imaging viewpoint of the inputted image.
