An electronic apparatus capable of communicating with an image processing server, the electronic apparatus including transmitting means for transmitting, to the image processing server, an image and information indicating an image processing parameter to be used when the image processing server performs image processing on the image, and controlling means for controlling display of a guidance indicating that an image obtained by applying the image processing by the image processing server to the image is to be checked on another apparatus from the electronic apparatus.

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.

A display apparatus transmits a picture acquisition request for getting picture information to an external image apparatus connected through a predetermined interface to the display apparatus from the external image apparatus at predetermined intervals and gets a plurality of pieces of picture information from the external image apparatus to be displayed. The plurality of pictures may be switched at predetermined intervals, for example, to be displayed, so that the plurality of pictures may be displayed in a so-called slide show manner. A plurality of pictures for thumbnail may be produced from the plurality of pieces of picture information and be arranged together to be displayed in one picture screen of a display device.

A material data collection system allows capturing of material data. For example, the material data collection system may include digital image data for materials. The material data collection system may ensure that captured digital image data is properly aligned, so that material data may be easily recalled for later use, while maintaining the proper alignment for the captured digital image. The material data collection system may include using a capture guide, to provide cues on how to orient a mobile device used with the material data collection system.

An image processing apparatus includes a movement estimation unit that estimates, on the basis of a first timestamp provided to an image captured by synchronous scanning, an event signal generated corresponding to an intensity change of light at one or a plurality of pixels of the image, and a second timestamp that is provided to the event signal and is in synchronism with the first timestamp, a movement of an imaging target in the image, an inverse filter generation unit that generates an inverse filter on the basis of the movement, and a filter application unit that applies the inverse filter to the image.

A display apparatus transmits a picture acquisition request for getting picture information to an external image apparatus connected through a predetermined interface to the display apparatus from the external image apparatus at predetermined intervals and gets a plurality of pieces of picture information from the external image apparatus to be displayed.

A plurality of pictures for thumbnail may be produced from the plurality of pieces of picture information and be arranged together to be displayed in one picture screen of a display device.

This invention provides an image capturing apparatus comprising an image capturing unit, and a communication unit for communicating with a distribution server via internet, wherein the image capturing apparatus comprises a time measuring unit for measuring, if a distribution instruction for live distribution using the distribution server has been given, an elapsed time since the instruction has been given; and a control unit for starting, if the elapsed time measured by the time measuring unit has reached a predetermined set time, distributing an image captured by the image capturing unit to the distribution server via the communication unit.

An image capturing apparatus comprises an interface configured to connect to an external apparatus, a transmitting unit configured to transmit image data to an external apparatus connected by the interface, a processing unit configured to encode the image data with a predetermined format, a determination unit configured to determine whether or not image data to be encoded by the processing unit includes decoding information for decoding the image data, and a control unit configured to switch, based on the determination result, between processing for transmitting image data encoded by the processing unit and the decoding information to the external apparatus and processing for transmitting an image file in which image data including the decoding information is encoded to the external apparatus.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to adjusting an illumination of a user depicted in one or more images when using a video conferencing application. In one example, one or more images depicting the user may be received from an image sensor. Further, an illumination of the user depicted in the one or more images may be determined to be unsatisfactory. For example, the user's face may be too bright or too dim. Accordingly, content displayed at a display device may identified and then modified. The modified content may then be rendered to a display device thereby changing the illumination of the user depicted in subsequent images. In examples, the modified content may include a graphical element, such as a ring of a specific color at least partially surrounding content rendered to and displayed at the display device.
