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.

According to an aspect of the disclosure, an information processing apparatus comprising a communication circuit and a control circuit is provided. The control circuit transmits reduced image data of captured image data, to a first external apparatus through the communication circuit; receives, from the first external apparatus, a result of evaluation processing applied to the reduced image data; on the basis of the result of the evaluation processing, determines whether to apply image processing to the captured image data corresponding to the reduced image data, by a second external apparatus; transmits the captured image data that is determined to be applied the image processing, to the second external apparatus through the communication circuit; and receives, from the second external apparatus, a result of the image processing applied to the captured image data.

A digital camera with a printer is a digital camera with a printer and includes a communication unit that communicates with a digital camera with a printer that is another apparatus, and an image composition unit that generates a composite image in which a first image captured by the digital camera with a printer that is an owned apparatus and a second image captured by the other apparatus are composited, in which the communication unit transmits the composite image to the other apparatus. A user of the other apparatus can also obtain the composite image. Accordingly, the composite image can be enjoyed by capturing images using a plurality of cameras.

An information processing apparatus includes at least one processor, in which the processor is configured to acquire an image of a participant participating in an event, and output a two-dimensional code in which attribute information indicating an attribute of the participant estimated based on the image and identification information assigned for each participant are coded.

The present technology relates to a file management system, an information processing apparatus, an image capturing apparatus, and a file management method that enable a start of an image capturing operation before issuance of a formal file name.

The image capturing apparatus saves an image file including a captured image, with a temporary file name irrespective of whether or not the image capturing apparatus is connected to the information processing apparatus, and transmits the temporary file name to the information processing apparatus at an image capturing timing. The information processing apparatus fires a formal file name for the image file when the temporary file name is received. The present technology is applicable to, for example, a file management system that saves image files with sequential file names in a plurality of image capturing apparatuses.

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.

The processor recognizes a first act for an imaging and print instruction that combines an imaging instruction and an instruction to print an image, the first act being performed by a person to be imaged who is included in a subject and within an imaging range of a camera unit, causes the camera unit to perform an imaging operation of outputting an image required to be printed in a case where the first act is recognized, recognizes a second act for an instruction to stop printing the image required to be printed, and causes a printer unit to print the image required to be printed in a case where the second act is not recognized during a predetermined print standby period and instructs the printer unit to stop printing the image required to be printed in a case where the second act is recognized during the print standby period.

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.

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.
