An image acquisition device includes a computer configured to: acquire image data; store a plurality of parameter sets each constituted of a plurality of parameters including photographing conditions and developing conditions; obtain a change from a reference parameter for one of the parameters relating to the photographing conditions, the change being made by a user at the time of acquisition of the image data; extract the parameter sets remaining after excluding the parameter sets involving the change in the changed parameter in a case where the change in the parameter has been obtained; and develop, using the extracted parameter sets, the acquired image data.

An approach is provided for the presentation of guidance information for capturing media content by a mobile device. Location information of the mobile device is acquired. A presentation is initiated of guidance information for capturing media content by the mobile device as part of a sequence of media contents. The guidance information is based on the location information and specifies distance and directional angle for the capture of the media content according to the sequence of media contents. Whether there is a deviation from guidance information is determined. A signal is generated to provide feedback relating to the determined deviation.

Methods, devices, and computer-readable storage media for providing a user with augmented guidance to capture images of products placed on a store shelving unit, the method including using an image sensor of a mobile device to capture and display in real-time a video stream depicting a store shelving unit, augmenting the video stream with a marking identifying an area of the store shelving unit and receiving an image including an area outside the marked area. A plurality of images captured by the image sensor and associated with a discontinuous first area of the store shelving unit with at least two non-overlapping regions and having image resolution higher than an image resolution of the video stream are used to mark the area of the video stream representing discontinuous first area and a second area outside the discontinuous first area. The received image overlaps the discontinuous first area and second area.

A digital image display device comprising: a display screen; a processor; a network connection for receiving digital media assets provided by a plurality of individuals; an image memory; a user interface for receiving input from a user of the digital image display device; and a program memory. The program memory stores instructions to execute the steps of: receiving a digital media asset; displaying the received digital media asset on the display screen; determining an asset classification for the displayed digital media asset; selecting a set of classified feedback message choices responsive to the determined asset classification; displaying the selected set of feedback message choices, receiving input from the user to select a particular feedback message choice; and providing an indication of the selected feedback message to the individual who provided the displayed digital media asset.

A method and system for organizing slides by analyzing content and offering alternative solutions for placing content on the slides in an effective and visually interesting organization is provided. The presentation application automatically generates alternative design suggestions for the provided content that effectively utilize the slide space pursuant to analytics performed on the content. Providing alternative design suggestions for organizing content on a slide assists in quickly and easily creating presentations that effectively utilize slide space.

Aspects relate to computer implemented methods and system to obtain self-pictures with an image capture device. The methods include receiving, by a processor, an input regarding a selected picture type to be captured, receiving, by an image sensor, a live image capture, identifying a subject in the live image capture, comparing the live image capture of the subject with a reference set based on the selected picture type, determining, based on the comparison, if the live image capture matches with the reference set, and providing feedback instructions regarding an adjustment to be made to improve matching between the live image capture and the reference set.

A computer-implemented method includes capturing, with a camera, a first image of a physical item at a first camera position, detecting borders associated with the physical item, based on the first image, generating an overlay that includes a plurality of objects that are positioned within one or more of the borders associated with the physical item, capturing, with the camera, subsequent images of the physical item, where each subsequent image is captured with a respective subsequent camera position, and during capture of the subsequent images, displaying an image preview that includes the overlay. The method further includes establishing correspondence between pixels of the first image and pixels of each of the subsequent images and generating a composite image of the physical item, where each pixel value of the composite image is based on corresponding pixel values of the first image and the subsequent images.

A detection apparatus according to an embodiment includes a first output control unit and a living body detection unit. The first output control unit performs controlling to output first output information in a first output form for giving a stimulus to a sense other than a sense of sight, and the first output information is made according to an action for a subject to make after closing of an eye. The living body detection unit detects whether the subject included in a first captured image captured after the first output information is output is a living body.

A system and method are provided. The method comprises obtaining a camera live stream from a camera in a user device, the camera live stream including image data of a particular product; determining one or more image features common to images of one or more products based at least on image analysis of image data of the images of the one or more products; comparing the one or more image features to one or more image features of the image data of the particular product to generate one or more potential adjustments to the one or more image features of the image data of the particular product; and providing, for presentation together with the camera live stream on the user device, at least one indication based on the one or more potential adjustments to the one or more image features of the image data of the particular product.

A terminal device, comprising: a capturing unit capturing a subject; a light emitting unit; a display unit, a processor, and a storage unit containing a program that causes the processor to execute a process of acquiring a drawing target drawn by a user from a captured image of the subject including the drawing target and causing the drawing target to be displayed on a screen of the display unit, the program causes the processor to execute; controlling the light emitting unit to emit the light when the capturing unit captures the subject according to the user's operation, acquiring the captured image that is obtained by capturing the subject irradiated with the light emitted from the light emitting unit, performing image correction corresponding to a brightness distribution of the light emitted from the light emitting unit on the captured image, and extracting the drawing target from the captured image acquired.
