A shared terminal includes: circuitry to control a display to display an image to a plurality of users, the plurality of users sharing a use of the shared terminal, and obtain, from a first privately-owned terminal owned by a first user of the plurality of users, first terminal identification information for identifying the first privately-owned terminal; a transmitter to transmit, to a terminal management server, an authentication request for authenticating the first privately-owned terminal to allow login of the first user into the shared terminal, the authentication request including the first terminal identification information of the first privately-owned terminal; and a receiver to receive an authentication result indicating whether the first privately-owned terminal is authenticated to allow login of the first user, from the terminal management server. When the authentication result indicates that the first privately-owned terminal is a legitimate terminal and login of the first user is successful, the circuitry controls the display to display a screen for allowing the plurality of users including the first user to draw an image. When the authentication result indicates that the first privately-owned terminal is not a legitimate terminal and login of the first user fails, the circuitry controls the display to display a screen with an error message.

It is an object to realize a correcting process for correcting a defective image in a region of interest (ROI) that is a partial region segmented from a captured image. A transmitting apparatus includes a controlling section that controls the holding of defect correcting information for use in correcting a defect in an image included in a ROI and a transmitting section that sends out image data of the image included in the ROI as payload data and sends out ROI information as embedded data.

A message processing method includes: acquiring a mark adding operation for at least a part of a target message; acquiring an input remarking message according to the mark adding operation; and outputting a marking identification for the remarking message. The marking identification can include the remarking message and an associative identification for associating the remarking message with the target message.

An image processing apparatus includes a registration unit configured to register a destination of file transmission, a selection unit configured to select whether to require a user to input, at time of transmission, authentication information required for the file transmission for each destination registered by the registration unit, a transfer unit configured to transfer received image data, and a control unit configured to prevent a destination for which it is selected to require the user to input the authentication information at time of transmission from being set as a transfer destination of the image data.

An image forming apparatus includes a user interface, circuitry, and an image forming device. The user interface receives, from an applicant, an instruction for selecting a desired application form having an entry field in which personal information is to be entered, and receives an input of individual authentication information of the applicant. The circuitry unlocks an IC card based upon the individual authentication information of the applicant to acquire personal information of the applicant from the IC card, and generates an application form for output from a template of the selected application form and the personal information acquired from the IC card. The image forming device outputs the generated application form.

The present application discloses an image transmission device and method. The image transmission device includes a receiver configured to receive pixel data in image data from a camera in sequence and buffer the pixel data into a memory, and determine, upon reception of a line of pixel data, a line number of the line of pixel data in the image data and a frame number of the image data; and a processor configured to obtain the line of pixel data, the line number of the line of pixel data and the frame number of the image data from the receiver, package the obtained line of pixel data, line number of the line of pixel data and frame number of the image data into a data packet, and transmit the data packet to a server.

An information processing system includes a first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus that use setting information. The first information processing apparatus includes a transmission unit that transmits information including at least function identification information and user identification information to the second information processing apparatus, the function identification information identifying a function for which first setting information is used, and the user identification information identifying a user associated with the function identification information. The second information processing apparatus includes a request unit that makes a request for the first setting information to the first information processing apparatus in a case where second setting information is stored in the second information processing apparatus; and an update unit that updates the second setting information in accordance with the first setting information that has been transmitted from the first information processing apparatus.

An image capture system includes a first image capture device, a second image capture device and a processing device, and the processing device is electrically connected to the first image capture device and the second image capture device. The first image capture device is configured to capture a first image, and the second image capture device is configured to capture a second image. The processing device is configured to receive first information transmitted from the first image capture device and second information transmitted from the second image capture device, and determines whether the first image and the second image have a same object based on the first information and the second information. If the processing device determines that the first image and the second image have the same object, the processing device synchronizes timestamps of the first image and the second image according to an event of the object.
