INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, COMPUTER PROGRAM, AND IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive first information on a posture of a head of an observer and second information on a posture of a body other than the head of the observer; and
an image rendering processing unit configured to generate a display image corresponding to a posture of the observer based on the first information and the second information.

Abstract
Provided is an image display device configured to display a free viewpoint image that tracks a movement of observer'"'"'s head and trunk.
The line-of-sight direction and trunk orientation of the user are individually oriented in a free viewpoint space displayed on a display device 500 based on posture information of the user'"'"'s head and trunk, which are respectively obtained from a head motion tracking device 200 and a trunk motion tracking device 300. A behavior that is natural in real space can be represented by moving a line of sight to a front direction of the trunk on a space in a state where the line of sight does not match the front direction of the trunk. An unnatural UI that goes straight to the line-of-sight direction is prevented regardless of orientation of the trunk.

19. A computer program written in a computer readable format to cause a computer to function as:
-
a head posture operation unit configured to calculate posture information of a head of an observer based on a result obtained by detection in a head posture detection unit configured to detect a posture of the head of the observer; a second posture operation unit configured to calculate posture information of a second part of a body other than the head of the observer based on a result obtained by detection in a second posture detection unit configured to detect a posture of one or more of the second part; and an image rendering processing unit configured to process an image to be displayed on a display unit based on a posture of the head of the observer and a posture of the second part, the display unit being fixed to the head or a face of the observer.

20. An image processing system comprising:
-
a display unit fixed to a head or a face of an observer; a head posture detection unit configured to detect a posture of the head of the observer; a second posture detection unit configured to detect a posture of one or more second parts of a body other than the head of the observer; and an image rendering processing unit configured to process a display image on the display unit based on a posture of the head of the observer and a posture of each of the second parts.
