MULTI-IMAGING APPARATUS, MULTI-IMAGING METHOD, PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A multi-imaging apparatus comprising:
- a display unit;
an internal imaging device that acquires a first live view image or a first image captured by a main imaging operation thereof;
a wireless communication unit that performs wireless communication with an external imaging device that acquires a second live view image or a second image captured by a main imaging operation thereof; and
a controller that is connected to the display unit, the internal imaging device, and the wireless communication unit,wherein the controller receives an input of the first live view image from the internal imaging device, receives the second live view image from the external imaging device through the wireless communication unit, and causes the display unit to display the input first live view image and the received second live view image as a multi-live view,the external imaging device includes a mechanical pan/tilt mechanism or an electronic pan/tilt mechanism that displays only a specific region in the second image to perform a pan/tilt control, andthe controller outputs a motor driving instruction for driving the mechanical pan/tilt mechanism or the electronic pan/tilt mechanism.

Abstract
A multi-imaging apparatus includes: a display unit; an internal imaging device that acquires a first live view image or a first image captured by a main imaging operation thereof; a wireless communication unit that performs wireless communication with an external imaging device that acquires a second live view image or a second image captured by a main imaging operation thereof; and a controller. Here, the controller receives an input of the first live view image from the internal imaging device, receives the second live view image from the external imaging device through the wireless communication unit, and causes the display unit to display the input first live view image and the received second live view image as a multi-live view.

12. A multi-imaging method comprising:
-
an internal imaging step of acquiring a first live view image or a first image captured by a main imaging operation thereof; and an external imaging step of acquiring, from an external imaging device that acquires a second live view image or a second image captured by a main imaging operation thereof, the second live view image or the second image through wireless communication, wherein the first live view image is input in the internal imaging step and the second live view image is received in the external imaging step, the method further comprising; a display step of displaying the first live view image and the second live view image as a multi-live view, wherein the external imaging step includes a step of acquiring the second live view image or the second image captured by the external imaging device that includes a mechanical pan/tilt mechanism or an electronic pan/tilt mechanism that displays only a specific region in the second image to perform a pan/tilt control, and a step of outputting a motor driving instruction for driving the mechanical pan/tilt mechanism or the electronic pan/tilt mechanism. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory recording medium on which a computer-readable code of a program that causes a computer to execute a multi-imaging method, the method comprising:
-
an internal imaging step of acquiring a first live view image or a first image captured by a main imaging operation thereof; and an external imaging step of acquiring, from an external imaging device that acquires a second live view image or a second image captured by a main imaging operation thereof, the second live view image or the second image through wireless communication, wherein the first live view image is input in the internal imaging step and the second live view image is received in the external imaging step, the method further comprising; a display step of displaying the first live view image and the second live view image as a multi-live view, wherein the external imaging step includes a step of acquiring the second live view image or the second image captured by the external imaging device that includes a mechanical pan/tilt mechanism or an electronic pan/tilt mechanism that displays only a specific region in the second image to perform a pan/tilt control, and a step of outputting a motor driving instruction for driving the mechanical pan/tilt mechanism or the electronic pan/tilt mechanism.
