Title:
ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, METHOD, AND PROGRAM FOR CALCULATING HEIGHT OF SUBJECT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014033392
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To solve the problem associated with a conventional method for measuring a height of a subject from a photographed image in which, when a person is photographed from obliquely above for example, an actual head-top area of the person to be a subject may not be captured in an image due to a thickness of the head, thereby easily causing an error in the measurement, and the height may not be accurately measured due to the subject wearing a cap and a hair style of the subject.

An electronic apparatus is held by a user to photograph a subject, and includes a first imaging unit that photographs the subject, and a calculation unit that calculates a relative height of the subject to the user on the basis of a first image obtained by photographing the subject.
