The present invention is concerning to an image management system that communicates with a first communication terminal via a communication network, the image management system comprising: an image storage unit configured to store image data; a receiving unit configured to receive, from the first communication terminal, link information that includes image identification information for identifying the image data and includes predetermined-area information that indicates a predetermined area in the image data; and a transmitting unit configured to transmit, to the first communication terminal, the image data that is indicated by the image identification information included in the link information received by the receiving unit and the predetermined-area information included in the link information.

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.

Throughput reduction in autonomous vehicle camera sensors, including: generating, by a camera sensor, a frame; selecting an area of focus for the frame; and generating, by the camera sensor from the frame, a downsampled frame and a cropped frame, wherein the cropped frame is based on the area of focus.

A portable electronic device with a touch screen display for photo management is disclosed. One aspect of the invention involves a computer-implemented method in which the portable electronic device displays an array of thumbnail images corresponding to a set of photographic images. The device replaces the displayed array of thumbnail images with a user-selected photographic image upon detecting a user contact with a corresponding thumbnail image in the array. The user-selected photographic image is displayed at a larger scale than the corresponding thumbnail image. The portable device displays a different photographic image in replacement of the user-selected photographic image in accordance with a scrolling gesture. The scrolling gesture comprises a substantially horizontal movement of user contact with the touch screen display.

An electronic device and a method for processing an image by the electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention are provided. The method may comprise: generating password information for a first image using security information of a user; changing the first image to a second image using the generated password information; and transmitting the second image and the password information in response to a transmission request of the first image. Various other embodiments may be available.

An electronic apparatus includes a communicator, an image capturer configured to acquire a capture image of a display apparatus including a screen, and a processor configured to identify a screen area of the screen, within the capture image. The processor is further configured to sample a plurality of patch images, each of which having a predetermined unit size, from a background area outside the screen area within the capture image, generate a screen image to be displayed on the screen, based on the plurality of patch images, and control the communicator to transmit the screen image to the display apparatus.

The present invention is concerning to an image management system that communicates with a first communication terminal via a communication network, the image management system comprising: an image storage unit configured to store image data; a receiving unit configured to receive, from the first communication terminal, link information that includes image identification information for identifying the image data and includes predetermined-area information that indicates a predetermined area in the image data; and a transmitting unit configured to transmit, to the first communication terminal, the image data that is indicated by the image identification information included in the link information received by the receiving unit and the predetermined-area information included in the link information.

An image forming apparatus includes a processor configured to create a preview image of an image created by executing a job; store image data of the created preview image in a memory; create an information code representing a storage area of the memory where the image data is stored; and display the information code created by the processor on a display.
