An image processing apparatus includes a composition unit configured to composite a plurality of captured images to generate a composite image, a recording control unit configured to record the captured images or the composite image as a recorded image in a recording unit, and a determination unit configured to determine an imaging mode or a method of composition performed by the composition unit, in which the recording control unit records type data determined on the basis of a result of the determination in association with the recorded image that is captured or composited according to the imaging mode or the method of composition determined by the determination unit.

A method of automatically displaying a predetermined set of print attributes of a print job, the method including receiving an image of a first printed sheet, the first printed sheet including one or more at least partial machine-readable codes, the one or more at least partial machine-readable codes encoded with data related to the predetermined set of print attributes, decoding the data from the one or more at least partial machine-readable codes, determining if the data includes all of the print attributes in the predetermined set of print attributes, and if the data includes all of the print attributes in the predetermined set of print attributes, displaying the data using augmented reality (AR) over the first printed sheet.

A method and an apparatus to provide a service using a sensor and image recognition in a portable terminal that supports Augmented Reality (AR). The method includes determining whether the portable terminal is parallel to ground using an acceleration sensor. When the portable terminal is parallel to the ground, either a map including nearby Point Of Interest (POI) information or constellation information is displayed.

A digital camera includes a communicator that communicates with other digital camera, a receiver that receives a camera information of another digital camera and an imaging device that forms a digital image of an object. The digital camera further includes a processor that creates a digital image data from the digital image based upon the camera information.

The electronic camera has an imaging device that images a subject with subject reflectance R (%) with a dynamic range wider than that at displaying or printing to acquire image data and a recording device that converts the image data acquired by the imaging device with a predetermined function and records the converted image data and the information on the function as digital values (digit). Therefore, a printed image with an automatically or manually corrected density can be obtained at the displaying or the printing.

A communication apparatus capable of controlling an image capture apparatus is disclosed. The communication apparatus receives live image data from an image capture apparatus in which information regarding a predetermined parameter related to a capturing of the live image is added. When the reception of the live image data is restricted, the communication apparatus restricts an instruction to change the value of the predetermined parameter. This enables to prevent the occurrence of a difference between an actual state of the image capture apparatus and a state assumed by a user of the communication apparatus, in a state where a moving image captured by the image capture apparatus is not displayed on the communication apparatus.

A communication apparatus includes a data sender and a processing record sender. The data sender sequentially sends data to m destinations, where m is an integer of two or greater. The processing record sender sends a processing record concerning the data sent to the first destination through a processing record concerning the data sent to the n-th destination to the n-th destination when the data sender sends the data to the n-th destination, where n is an integer of 1 to m. The processing record sender sends the processing record concerning the data sent to the first destination through a processing record concerning the data sent to the m-th destination to the first through (m1)-th destinations when the data sender sends the data to the m-th destination.

A digital camera includes a communicator that communicates with other digital camera, a receiver that receives a camera information of another digital camera and an imaging device that forms a digital image of an object. The digital camera further includes a processor that creates a digital image data from the digital image based upon the camera information.

A method and an apparatus to provide a service using a sensor and image recognition in a portable terminal that supports Augmented Reality (AR). The method includes determining whether the portable terminal is parallel to ground using an acceleration sensor. When the portable terminal is parallel to the ground, either a map including nearby Point Of Interest (POI) information or constellation information is displayed.

An information recording device includes a data acquisition unit and a service information recording unit. The data acquisition unit acquires data. The service information recording unit records in a recording unit service information including information regarding each of a plurality of services which may be performed utilizing the data acquired by the data acquisition unit in association with the data acquired by the data acquisition unit.
