A guidance processing apparatus (100) includes an information acquisition unit (101) that acquires a plurality of different pieces of guidance information on the basis of states of a plurality of people within one or more images, and a control unit (102) that performs control of a plurality of target devices present in different spaces or time division control of a target device so as to set a plurality of different states corresponding to the plurality of pieces of guidance information.

A display device is used for a number-of-fish counting system for counting the number of fish. The display device is provided with a display unit that displays a plurality of selectable instruction items on a main screen. The plurality of instruction items include a recording instruction item that instructs a processing device of the number-of-fish counting system to execute or stop recording of video of fish, and an analysis instruction item that instructs the processing device to count the number of the fish by analyzing the fish on the basis of the recorded video.

Disclosed are image based counting systems and methods. Image based counting systems and methods employ one or more imaging devices (e.g., one or more color cameras) and one or more illumination devices (e.g., one or more illumination sources to provide variable and/or dynamic lighting). In some examples, the image based counting system provides illumination to a tray upon which one or more items (e.g., pills) are placed. The illuminated items are then imaged by the one or more imaging devices based on one or more imaging techniques or processes to determine and/or present information associated with one or more properties of the item.
