The method may include the following steps: maintaining a plurality of video editing parameters; obtaining from a plurality of users, a plurality of footage sets each set comprising at least one of: a video sequence, and a still image; editing the plurality of footage sets, based on the plurality of video editing parameters, to yield respective edited videos; deriving user-satisfaction indicators from the plurality of users, responsive to viewing the respective edited videos; and automatically modifying at least one of the video editing parameters, based on the user-satisfaction indicators, to yield modified video editing parameters.

A surface covering layout system includes a processing circuit configured to receive image data regarding one or more images associated with a surface to be covered with a surface covering, and generate a surface covering layout based on the image data, the surface covering layout providing an indication of a pattern of a plurality of covering members included in the surface covering.

This invention relates to creating a narrative description of media content. In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method describes content of a group of images. The group of images includes a first image and a second image. A first object in the first image is recognized to determine a first content data. A second object in the second image is recognized to determine a second content data. Finally, a narrative description of the group of images is determined according to a parameterized template and the first and second content data.

Systems and methods for customizing a kiosk device are disclosed. The methods may include, by a processor: providing a web-interface portal that enables a user to generate a customized application package for customization of a kiosk device that provides document processing services via a print device, receiving one or more custom files to be included in the customized application package from the user via the web-interface portal, and generating the customized application package. The customized application package includes the received one or more custom files stored in a format compatible with the kiosk device. The user does not have access to the format, and the customized application package when installed on the kiosk device will cause customization of the kiosk device in accordance with the one or more custom files.

A server computing device can (1) managing a plurality of album artwork templates, wherein each album artwork template of the plurality of album artwork templates includes a plurality of entries, and each entry of the plurality of entries defines a respective manner by which a respective album artwork image is to be generated, (2) receiving, from a client device, a request for an album artwork image, wherein the request includes: a first identifier that corresponds to a particular image of an artist, a second identifier that corresponds to a particular album artwork template of the plurality of album artwork templates, and locale information that corresponds to a particular entry of the particular album artwork template, and (3) generating the album artwork image according to the respective manner defined by the particular entry, wherein the album artwork image is based at least in part on the particular image of the artist.

There is provided an information processing apparatus. A processing unit receives original document data defining a design of an original document and processes the original document data so as to conform to a completion state of the original document during output. A creating unit creates output data in which the original document based on the processed original document data is disposed in an arrangement region on a recording medium having the original document formed thereon in a case where a ratio of a region of the original document based on the processed original document data to the arrangement region falls within an arrangement limitation, in a case where an amount of processing performed by the processing unit falls within a processing limitation.

This invention provides an imaging apparatus comprising a storage storing correction values, a correction circuit which corrects captured image data based on the correction values, a first memory and a second memory, a transferring circuit which transfers the correction values in the storage to the correction circuit, a write circuit which writes the transferred correction values to either the first memory or the second memory, and a controller which controls, in a case where a transfer time of the correction values is longer than a time for image capture processing of one frame, so that, over an image capturing period of a plurality of frames, the write circuit writes new correction values to one of the first and second memory and the correction circuit corrects the captured image data using the current correction values in the other memory.

An image to be printed is displayed in an image display region EA1 set on a center line L passing through a center of a screen in a width direction. A print button PB for providing an instruction for printing of the image and an image editing menu buttons EB1 to EB3 are displayed in a button display region EA2 side by side along the width direction of the screen. The print button PB is disposed on the center line L and displayed in a larger size than other buttons EB1 to EB3. In a case in which the image editing menu button is touch-operated, a plurality of operation buttons for image editing are expanded and displayed in an operation region EA3 between the button display region EA2 and the image display region EA1. The operation buttons for image editing are displayed in a radial pattern on the same circumference around a point set on the center line L.

A digital camera with a printer is a digital camera with a printer and includes a communication unit that communicates with a digital camera with a printer that is another apparatus, and an image composition unit that generates a composite image in which a first image captured by the digital camera with a printer that is an owned apparatus and a second image captured by the other apparatus are composited, in which the communication unit transmits the composite image to the other apparatus. A user of the other apparatus can also obtain the composite image. Accordingly, the composite image can be enjoyed by capturing images using a plurality of cameras.
