Patent Images
1. An image reproducing apparatus capable of outputting an image of an object, picked up by a camera unit;
- to a display device, comprising;
a storage device to store images of a plurality of objects, together with information of direction of the camera unit, wherein the direction is determined on the basis of the positional relation between the image reproducing apparatus and the camera unit, and includes a first direction and a second direction, and the object to be picked up in the first direction and the object to be picked up in the second direction are different from each other;
a reproducing device to reproduce a plurality of images picked up by the camera unit, to output the plurality of images to the display device; and
a reproducing control device to control reproduction by said reproducing device so as to reproduce a group of images picked up by the camera unit, wherein directions of the group of images are the same as one of the first direction and the second direction, among the plurality of images stored in said storage device, in accordance with the information of direction of the camera unit.
