An image inspection apparatus includes a first reader and a second reader that acquire read images by respectively reading one side and the other side of a sheet having an image printed thereon, a first background material and a second background material provided at positions as the backgrounds of the sheet in reading by the first reader and the second reader respectively, and a hardware processor that acquires sheet outline information from the read images and measures misalignment of the image with respect to the sheet based on the acquired sheet outline information. The hardware processor acquires read images with the first background material and the second background material having different densities, and acquires sheet outline information of one read image by estimating the sheet outline information of the one read image based on sheet outline information of the other of the read images.

Provided is an image exposure device capable of recording a favorable image and capable of decreasing the size of the device. An image exposure device (10) includes an image display device (12) having pixels (13), a photosensitive recording medium support portion (21) that supports a photosensitive recording medium (14) for recording an image of the image display device (12) in a state in which an exposure surface (14A) of the photosensitive recording medium (14) faces the image display device (12), and a transmitted light control portion (16) that is provided between the image display device (12) and the photosensitive recording medium support portion (21) and is formed by laminating three or more layers of transmission members (100) that have a plurality of openings (102) formed therein and transmit only light incident on the openings (102).

A three-dimensional (3D) measuring system that includes an external projector and an imager device. The imager device having a projector, a first camera and a second camera. The system further having one or more processors operably coupled to the display, the projector, the first camera and the second camera. The processors are responsive to executable computer instructions when executed on the one or more processors for projecting one or more random patterns on an object, recording one or more stereo images of the object, estimating a position and orientation of an imager device and registering scan data generated from the estimated position and orientation of the imager device into a coordinate system.

An electronic device includes a display and a control unit. The control unit includes a processor and functions, when the processor executes a control program, as a screenshot executing section and a control section. The screenshot executing section acquires an image being displayed on the display. The control section performs authentication processing authenticating a user. When an image that requires authentication of the user is being displayed on the display, the control section forbids the screenshot executing section to acquire the image. When an image that requires no authentication of the user is being displayed on the display, the control section permits the screenshot executing section to acquire the image.

A personalized pattern-based commodity virtual code assignment method and system, which assign commodity codes to commodities but not print out. The present invention prints a naturally formed, two-dimensional and random personalized feature pattern on each commodity with the traditional processes such as forme-based printing; collects personalized feature information and assigns commodity codes; and associates and stores the personalized feature information and the commodity codes into a preset database. The commodity code can be retrieved and acquired from the database by scanning the personalized feature pattern on a commodity with a client. With the present invention, code assignment can be conducted without a digital printer, so no digital printing process is required, and the code assignment cost can be reduced. With the method of printing personalized patterns and associating commodity codes, the present invention opens up another way to realize commodity code assignment and creates the code assignment of non-digital printers.

An image forming apparatus includes: a memory that stores a setting for a first process in association with an identifier; a receiver that receives the identifier, image data, and a request for a second process from a host apparatus capable of requesting the second process but incapable of requesting the first process; and a processor that performs the first process on a basis of the image data according to the setting stored in association with the identifier.

An electronic device includes a display and a control unit. The control unit includes a processor and functions, when the processor executes a control program, as a screenshot executing section and a control section. The screenshot executing section acquires an image being displayed on the display. The control section performs authentication processing authenticating a user. When an image that requires authentication of the user is being displayed on the display, the control section forbids the screenshot executing section to acquire the image. When an image that requires no authentication of the user is being displayed on the display, the control section permits the screenshot executing section to acquire the image.

An image acquisition device including: an imaging optical system forming two images having parallax; and an element acquiring the parallax images, the imaging optical system includes: a first negative lens group having negative refractive power; a first positive lens group having positive refractive power; and a second positive lens group having positive refractive power, the first negative lens group includes two negative lens groups disposed side by side in the parallax direction and having central axes respectively, the first positive lens group is a common lens group having a single central axis, and light rays emitted from the negative lens groups pass therethrough, the second positive lens group includes two positive lens groups disposed side by side in the parallax direction and having central axes respectively and the first positive lens group includes a moving lens group moved along the central axis of the first positive lens group.

An information processing apparatus includes a controller. The controller changes, in accordance with an order in which images related to devices that have been identified are linked to each other, an order of priority in which one or plural cooperative functions that use functions of the devices are displayed.
