Image processing method using sensed eye position
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for processing an image previously captured by a camera and stored in a memory of the camera, the method comprising the steps of:
- sensing a position of an eye in the captured image;
generating eye position information based on the sensed position of the eye; and
processing said captured image using the eye position information, wherein the step of processing involves detecting a face within the captured image, applying a morph to the detected face to modify the captured image, and applying a graphical object at a location within the image and relative to the detected face.

Abstract
A method for processing an image previously captured by a camera and stored in a memory of the camera, includes the steps of sensing the position of an eye in the captured image; generating eye position information; and processing said captured image using the eye position information. The step of processing involves detecting a face within the capture image, and applying a morph to the detected face to modify the captured image. The step of processing further involves a step of applying a graphical object at a location within the image and relative to the detected face.

8. A non-transitory processor readable storage medium located at a camera and configured with processor executable instructions for performing the steps of:
-
sensing the position of an eye in an image captured by a camera and stored in the memory of the camera; generating eye position information; and processing said captured image using the eye position information, wherein the step of processing involves detecting a face within the captured image, and applying a morph to the detected face to modify the captured image, and the step of processing further involves a step of applying a graphical object at a location within the image and relative to the detected face. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A hand held camera device comprising:
-
an eye position sensor; a memory; and a processor; wherein the eye position sensor is configured to sense a position of an eye in an image captured by the hand held camera and to generate eye position information based on the sensed position of the eye; wherein the memory is configured to store the image captured by the hand held camera device and to store the eye position information; and wherein the processor is configured to detect a face within the captured image, apply a morph to the detected face to modify the captured image, and apply a graphical object at a location within the image relative to the detected face. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
