A messaging apparatus for wearable items. The messaging apparatus may comprise a light source, at least one sensor to detect an event, and a controller to control the flashing of the light source in response to the detection of the event. The controlling of the flashing of the light source may generate at least one visible element that is visible to a viewer. Further, the light source may not be adapted in the form of the at least one visible element, but rather, the controlled flashing of the light source may be in the form of the at least one visible element.

A display control apparatus includes one or more processors, a conversion unit configured to convert a color of the image based on a predetermined condition, and a display control unit configured to perform control such that, in a case where a non-color-converted image is displayed in which the color of the non-color-converted image is not converted, a display item is displayed at a superimposed position at which the display item is superimposed on the image, and in a case where a color-converted image is displayed in which the color of the color-converted image is converted, the display item is displayed at a non-superimposed position at which the display item is not superimposed on the color-converted image.

An information processing device includes: circuitry configured to: obtain a captured image including position identification information identifying a position at which a virtual abject representing a target to be placed is to be displayed; generate a composite image in which the virtual object is combined at a position on the captured image, the position identified by the position identification information; receive an operation causing the virtual object included in the composite image, to operate; and control display depicting operation of the virtual object based on display setting information including specification information defining specifications of the target to be placed, in response to the operation receiving unit receiving the operation causing the virtual object to operate.

Conversion of text-based images to vector graphics (VG) is disclosed. The text-based images may include images of equations, custom typefaces, or other types of text that may not be included in a font selection of an optical character recognition (OCR) device or an application stored on a viewing device. A textual image may be converted from a raster graphics (RG) image to a VG image, which may enable resizing and alignment of the VG image with body text. In some aspects, the server may determine a body size of a reference character in the VG image. The server may determine a baseline of the VG image that may be used to align the image with the body text.

An electronic device includes a flexible display, a sensing unit configured to obtain bending information including at least one of a bending degree, the number of times of bending, a bending maintaining duration, and a bending speed of the display, and a controller configured to additionally display a second image on the display when the display is bent in a state in which a first image is displayed, and complementarily change transparency of the first image and that of the second image to reflect the bending information obtained by the sensing unit.

An image-displaying device includes an image output section, an image data generation section, and a display section. The image output section outputs output data corresponding to an image of a subject. The image data generation section converts the output data to image data by each line and converts image data of a line in a first period. The display section displays the image data of the line in a horizontal synchronization period of the display section. The first period is shorter than the horizontal synchronization period.
