In the image processing device, method and system of the present invention, a destination identifier of an image file is stored, the destination identifier indicating one of a plurality of external stations as a destination station which receives the image file from the image processing device through a network. At least one of a sender identifier of the image file, a subject identifier of the image file and a scan condition of the image file is stored. The image file is transmitted, together with at least one of the sender identifier, the subject identifier and the scan condition, through the network to one of the external stations indicated by the stored destination identifier.

There is provided an information processing apparatus and a control method thereof. The information processing apparatus and a control method acquires user information from an external apparatus by using near field wireless communication, determines how to handle the acquired user information according to a type of a screen displayed by a display unit. For example, when the displayed screen is an authentication screen, authentication processing is executed by using the acquired user information.

There is provided a signal processing device including a signal generation unit that generates a control signal for controlling an imaging device connected via one cable, a signal superimposition unit that superimposes the control signal generated by the signal generation unit on a video signal received from the imaging device via the cable without an influence on display of a video corresponding to the video signal, and a transmission unit that transmits the signals superimposed by the signal superimposition unit to the imaging device via the cable.

A mobile terminal improved in operability concerning fax transmission. A CPU of the mobile terminal sets information indicative of a fax transmission destination, sets reading and transmission information concerning fax transmission and original reading, and sends a request for fax transmission, to an image forming apparatus. When a response notifying capability of fax transmission is received from the apparatus, the CPU causes a message for prompting a user to set an original, to be displayed on a display section. When the original has been set and an instruction for fax transmission from the user is received, the CPU sends an instruction for reading the original and executing fax transmission, together with the transmission destination information, and the reading and transmission information, to the apparatus. The CPU causes a result of fax transmission by the apparatus to be displayed on the display section.

A service providing system and an information processing method. The service providing system stores in one or more memories, a plurality of settings of an application that receives an execution request from the electronic device, duplicates the application that uses one of the plurality of settings stored in the one or more memories to generate duplicated application, and transmits information on the duplicated application to the electronic device, and the electronic device displays on a display, a screen for selecting an application to be executed by a user, the screen including the duplicated application for selection by the user.

An image processing apparatus includes a scan unit that scans an image of a document and generates image data, a reception unit that receives information for identifying a whiteboard of a whiteboard function provided by an information processing apparatus, a processor that determines position information for indicating a position on the identified whiteboard where the generated image data is to be inserted, and a transmission unit that transmits the generated image data, the received information for identifying the whiteboard, and the position information to the information processing apparatus.

An image processing system comprises a first image processing apparatus and a second image processing apparatus. The first image processing apparatus obtains image data and transmits, to the second image processing apparatus, the obtained image data and information relating to the image data. The second image processing apparatus receives the image data and sets a condition for determining whether the image data is the image data to be processed, and determines whether or not the received image data is the image data to be processed, based on the set condition and the information. The second image processing apparatus executes, when it is determined that the received image data is the image data to be processed, image processing on the image data, based on the information and stores a result of the execution of the image processing.

An image processing apparatus and a method of controlling the image processing apparatus are provided. The image processing apparatus sets whether or not a function provided in the image processing apparatus requires user authentication, and upon issuance of an instruction to activate an application, determines whether or not a function used by the application is set to require the user authentication. If it is determined that the function used by the application is set to require the user authentication, the image processing apparatus permits the application to use the function in a case that the user authentication has succeeded.

A method includes receiving a subscription request to obtain notifications of events pertaining to the data file that has been previously uploaded by a user account associated with a user device and stored at the cloud-based file system. The subscription request identifies a destination address for the notifications generated in accordance with the subscription request and one or more events, among multiple events, corresponding to the data file that are to prompt the notifications to be transmitted to the destination address associated with the networked device. The method includes determining that the subscription request is authorized, and identifying an occurrence of an event from the one or more events specified in the subscription request and involving the data file. The method includes transmitting to the destination address a notification indicating the occurrence of the event involving the data file.

It is an object to realize a correcting process for correcting a defective image in a region of interest (ROI) that is a partial region segmented from a captured image. A transmitting apparatus includes a controlling section that controls the holding of defect correcting information for use in correcting a defect in an image included in a ROI and a transmitting section that sends out image data of the image included in the ROI as payload data and sends out ROI information as embedded data.
