Imaging device and information acquisition system in which an acquired image and associated information are held on a display
An imaging device includes an imaging portion that images a subject; a positional information acquisition portion that acquires positional information of an imaging position; a control portion which acquires information on the subject based on the positional information, and displays image data of the subject and the information on the subject on a display portion; and a hold control portion that outputs a hold control signal, which holds the image data of the subject and the information on the subject, to the control portion.
Method for proactive creation of image-based products
A method for proactively creating an image product includes capturing an image of an object in a first environment by a device, storing a library of personalized products each characterized by a product type, automatically recognizing the object in the image as having a product type associated with the library of personalized products, automatically creating a design for the personalized product of the product type using personalized content, automatically displaying the design of the personalized product of the product type incorporating the selected photo in the first environment on the device, and manufacturing a physical product based on the design of the personalized product.
Selection of microphones in a camera
A camera, having: microphones including: a first microphone; and a second microphone. The camera including a sensor controller. The sensor controller being configured to receive audio, select between the microphones, and record the audio. The sensor controller receives the audio inputs from the first microphone and the second microphone. The sensor controller selects the first microphone or the second microphone based on the audio inputs so that one of the first and second microphones is a selected microphone, wherein the selected microphone receives the audio input having the lowest level of background noise within a predetermined frequency range associated with background noise. The sensor controller records audio data from only the selected microphone.
Browser-based mobile image capture
Systems and methods for integrating mobile image capture with an internet browser application on a mobile device are provided, wherein a user viewing a web page via the internet browser application can initiate a mobile image capture process on the mobile device through the web page, capture images with a mobile image capture user interface, and then provide secure access to the captured images for the web page in order to utilize the content of the captured images. The mobile image capture process is accessible through any internet browser application via the mobile device and allows any service running on a web page to benefit from the ability to capture an image on the mobile device and obtain the content of the image through mobile image processing. The browser-based mobile image capture allows mobile devices which do not run certain third party applications to utilize mobile image capture and processing.
Communication terminal, image communication system, and method for displaying image
A communication terminal including circuitry to: receive images captured by a plurality of image capturing devices in a distribution site; accept designation of a point of interest in the distribution site by a user; acquire predetermined-area information indicating a predetermined area including the designated point of interest, the predetermined area being included in an image captured by a specific image capturing device selected based on a position of the point of interest and positions of the image capturing devices; and display a predetermined-area image based on the acquired predetermined-area information, the predetermined-area image being an image of the predetermined area in the image captured by the specific image capturing device.
IMAGING APPARATUS WITH DISPLAY AND IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS
A digital camera is provided with a vertically long camera body having an approximately rectangular solid shape. An LCD panel provided in a rear surface of the camera body is arranged such that longitudinal directions of the display screen and the camera body correspond to each other. The digital camera is operated through a touch panel provided in a lower portion of the display screen. In a taking mode, an image is displayed in a small size on an upper portion of the display screen. In reproducing, the camera body is rotated sideways by 90 degree. In a reproducing mode, display posture of the image is also rotated by 90 degree, and the image is displayed in a large size on the entire display screen.
THROUGHPUT REDUCTION IN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE CAMERA SENSORS
Throughput reduction in autonomous vehicle camera sensors, including: generating, by a camera sensor, a frame; selecting an area of focus for the frame; and generating, by the camera sensor from the frame, a downsampled frame and a cropped frame, wherein the cropped frame is based on the area of focus.
REDUCING CAMERA SENSOR THROUGHPUT VIA AN INTERMEDIARY DEVICE
Throughput reduction in autonomous vehicle camera sensors, including: generating, by a camera sensor, a frame; selecting an area of focus for the frame; and generating, by the camera sensor from the frame, a downsampled frame and a cropped frame, wherein the cropped frame is based on the area of focus.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR INFORMATION PROCESSING AND STORAGE MEDIUM
An apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to obtain a signal indicating an address of a pixel in which a change in luminance has occurred and time of the change and a generation unit configured to generate a time-series image indicating a position of at least one pixel in which a change in luminance has occurred and a direction of the change in luminance based on the signal, wherein, when the time-series image is to be displayed in reverse chronological order, the generation unit generates the time-series image in which the direction of the change in luminance is reversed.
IMAGING APPARATUS AND SWITCH
A configuration is implemented that can adjust a stroke of an operation section of a switch required to cause predetermined processing to be executed. The present disclosure includes an operation section that can move in a predetermined direction from an initial position by a user operation, a position adjustment section that adjusts, in the predetermined direction, an amount of movement of the operation section from the initial position to a detection position, a position detection section that detects a position of the operation section with respect to the detection position, and a control section that controls execution of processing corresponding to the detection position based on a detection result from the position detection section.
