To display an image list stored in a memory with good visibility and to display the image list at a high speed, an image display device reads an image file in an Exif format, extracts a thumbnail image included in the image file in the Exif format, and generates a displayed image having a predetermined size and a square shape, thus displaying it in the image list. It is possible to improve visibility in displaying the image file aligning square-shaped displayed image having the same size while precluding blanks. It is possible to perform high-speed processing in producing an image list using thumbnail images included in image files in the Exif format.

An imaging apparatus includes imaging units that image a subject, a title generation executing unit that generates title images each including a display title for classifying a plurality of captured images acquired by the imaging unit and inserts the title image into the captured images, a storage unit that stores the captured images and the title images, a display unit that displays the captured images and the title images stored in the storage unit in the form of a list, and an image search executing unit that searches for a desired captured image from the plurality of captured images and the title images displayed on the display unit in the form of the list. The title generation executing unit hierarchically generates the title images in accordance with a priority set in each type of display title for classifying the captured images.

An image captured by a camera can be processed by a scanning application to identify multiple regions within the image that are suitable for scanning. These regions can be detected and selected for scanning automatically. The captured regions for the single image can be stored as individual image content files.

Provided are a damage diagram creation method, a damage diagram creation device, a damage diagram creation system, and a recording medium capable of detecting damage with high accuracy based on a plurality of images acquired by subjecting a subject to split imaging.

In a damage diagram creation method, damage of a subject is detected from each image (each image in a state of being not composed) constituting a plurality of images (a plurality of images acquired by subjecting the subject to split imaging), and thus, damage detection performance is not deteriorated due to deterioration of image quality in an overlapping area. Therefore, it is possible to detect damage with high accuracy based on a plurality of images acquired by subjecting the subject to split imaging. Detection results for the respective images can be composed using a composition parameter calculated based on correspondence points between the images.

An image processing apparatus displays, as a list, thumbnail images of files stored in a storage device. An extension determining portion identifies an extension the files, and when identified extensions are of file types that possibly contain thumbnail images, determines whether or not thumbnail images are contained in the files. An image list generating portion reads thumbnail images from files that have been determined as containing the thumbnail images, generates an image list in which the read thumbnail images are arranged in spaces for the files that have been determined as containing the thumbnail images, and blank images or fixed-form images are arranged in spaces for files that have been determined as not containing thumbnail images, and displays the image list. An thumbnail generating portion generates thumbnail images from the files that have been determined as not containing thumbnail images, and additionally displays those thumbnail images in the image list.

An image processing method includes: (a) displaying a plurality of candidate image processes to be performed on image data, the plurality of candidate image processes including a color modification process; (b) receiving an instruction indicating the color modification process selected from among the plurality of candidate image processes; (c) displaying a display image corresponding to the image data on the display; (d) designating a display image; and (e) displaying a processed display image that represents a result of the selected color modification process performed on the image data corresponding to the designated display image before the selected color modification process on the image data corresponding to the designated display image is performed.

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 transmission method includes receiving region of interest (ROI) information sent by a display device, performing image processing on a captured image according to the ROI information to intercept a partial image indicated by the ROI information from the captured image, and sending the partial image to the 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.
