Abstract

There is provided an information processing apparatus including a recording control unit that changes time intervals of frame images in a process target image, the frame images being to be recorded, on the basis of detection results of events corresponding to the frame images, which are images corresponding to respective frames of the process target image, which is a moving image generated by imaging.

Claims

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a recording control unit that changes time intervals of frame images in a process target image, the frame images being to be recorded, on the basis of detection results of events corresponding to the frame images, which are images corresponding to respective frames of the process target image, which is a moving image generated by imaging.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the recording control unit

decides a recording time at which the frame images in the process target image are caused to be recorded by setting, as a reference time, a time at which the corresponding event in the process target image is detected, and

causes the recording medium to record the frame images corresponding to the decided recording time.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the recording control unit decides the recording time on the basis of association information in which an actual time based on the reference time and the recording time are associated.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

an image processing unit that generates processed images in which a portion of the frame images corresponding to a time at which the event is detected is represented as a moving image on the basis of the frame images the recording medium is caused to record in the process target image.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein when the processed images are generated, the recording control unit causes the recording medium to record the processed images, instead of the frame images corresponding to the time at which the event is detected or together with the frame images corresponding to the time at which the event is detected.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5, further comprising:

a display control unit that causes a display screen to display the time at which the event in the process target image is detected, in association with the processed images corresponding to the time at which the event is detected.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a detection unit that detects the corresponding event in the process target image, wherein

the recording control unit changes the time intervals of the frame images in the process target image, the frame images being to be recorded, on the basis of detection results of the event detected by the detection unit.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a display control unit that changes a playback speed of the recorded frame images on the basis of a user'"'"'s operation.

9. An information processing method comprising:

changing time intervals of frame images in a process target image, the frame images being to be recorded, on the basis of detection results of events corresponding to the frame images, which are images corresponding to respective frames of the process target image, which is a moving image generated by imaging.

10. A program for causing a computer to execute:

changing time intervals of frame images in a process target image, the frame images being to be recorded, on the basis of detection results of events corresponding to the frame images, which are images corresponding to respective frames of the process target image, which is a moving image generated by imaging.
