Abstract

A non-transitory recording medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process including: generating a modified image by executing modification processing on an image of a mark affixed to a product; and providing the generated modified image as a determination-use image employable in determination as to whether or not the product affixed with the mark is included in a captured image.

Claims

1. A non-transitory recording medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

generating a modified image by executing modification processing on an image of a mark affixed to a product; and

providing the generated modified image as a determination-use image employable to determine whether or not a product affixed with the mark is included in a captured image.

3. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 1, wherein a feature amount of the modified image differs from a feature amount of the image of the mark by more than a specified reference amount.

4. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 1, wherein a feature amount of the modified image differs from a feature amount of an image obtained by executing the modification processing on the image of the mark by more than a specific reference amount.

5. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 3, wherein the process further comprises:

receiving information that determines a content of the modification processing, and generating the modified image based on the received information.

6. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 5, wherein the information is information that identifies the shape of the product affixed with the mark.

7. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 5, wherein the information is information that identifies a material of the product affixed with the mark.

8. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 5, wherein the information is information identifying a type of ambient light source illuminating the product affixed with the mark.

9. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 5, wherein the information is information indicating a content of image processing executed on the image of the mark.

10. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 5, wherein the information is information related to a 3D model of the product affixed with the mark, and the process further comprises:

employing, as the modified image based on the information, respective reference images obtained by repeating processing that sets a reference image as a reference from images of the mark affixed to the 3D model, that rotates the 3D model of the product affixed with the mark, that acquires an image of the mark at an angle at which the feature amount differs from the feature amount of the reference image by more than the specified reference amount, and that sets the acquired image of the mark as a new reference image, further rotates the 3D model of the product affixed with the mark, and acquires an image of the mark at an angle at which the feature amount of the new reference image differs by more than the specified reference amount.

11. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 5, wherein the information is information related to a 3D model of the product affixed with the mark, and the process further comprises:

employing, as the modified image based on the information, respective reference images obtained by repeating processing that sets a reference image as a reference from images of the 3D model of the product affixed with the mark, that rotates the 3D model of the product affixed with the mark, that acquires an image of the 3D model affixed with the mark at an angle at which the feature amount differs from the feature amount of the reference image by more than the specified reference amount, that sets the acquired image of the 3D model of the product affixed with the mark as a new reference image, that further rotates the 3D model of the product affixed with the mark, and that acquires an image the 3D model of the product affixed with the mark at an angle at which the feature amount differs from the feature amount of the new reference image by more than the specified reference amount.

12. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 1, wherein the captured image is an image acquired from the Internet.

2. A non-transitory recording medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

storing, in a memory, a modified image obtained by executing modification processing on an image of a mark affixed to a product; and

using the modified image stored in the memory to determine whether or not a product affixed with the mark is included in an acquired captured image.

13. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 2, wherein the process further comprises:

identifying a provision source of the captured image when, as a result of the determination, determination has been made that the product affixed with the mark is included in the captured image; and

outputting a message to the identified provision source.

14. The non-transitory recording medium of claim 13, wherein the process further comprises:

outputting information that identifies the provision source of the captured image when, as a result of the determination, determination has been made that the product affixed with the mark is included in the captured image.
