Imaging device and imaging method
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An imaging device, comprising:
- an image pickup device which images a subject; and
a motion estimating device which estimates an actual motion of the subject and an actual motion of the imaging device based on a through image which includes the subject imaged by the image pickup device prior to the actual imaging of a still image of the subject by the image pickup device,wherein the motion estimating device determines a subject region and a background region in the through image prior to the actual imaging, obtains a first motion vector indicating a motion in the subject region and a second motion vector indicating a motion in the background region, wherein the motion of the subject is a difference between the first motion vector and the second motion vector and the motion of the imagine device is the second motion vector.

Abstract
An imaging device, comprising:
- an image pickup device which images a subject; and
- a motion estimating device which estimates a motion of the subject and a motion of the imaging device based on a dynamic image or a plurality of still images which are imaged to include the subject prior to actual imaging of a still image of the subject by the image pickup device.

21. An imaging method that uses an imaging device which images a subject, comprising:
-
estimating an actual motion of the subject and an actual motion of the imaging device based on a through image which includes the subject imaged by the imaging device, and then performing an actual imaging of a still image of the subject and, determining a subject region and a background region in the image prior to the actual imaging, obtaining a first motion vector indicating a motion in the subject region and a second motion vector indicating a motion in the background region, wherein the motion of the subject is a difference between the first motion vector and the second motion vector and the motion of the imaging device is the second motion vector.
