Disclosed is a printing device including: a finger stage which has a nail rest, having an identifier, to place a tip of a nail, the nail being a printing target, and on which a finger corresponding to the nail is placed; and at least one camera which obtains an image from a first direction and an image from a second direction. The identifier which detects a position of the nail is provided on one surface of the nail rest such that the identifier does not exist in the image from the first direction but the identifier exists in the image from the second direction.

A display device includes a display and a controller. The controller may obtain whether at least two or more thumbnail images of the plurality of thumbnail images are identical, and control to display the plurality of photo images on the display by executing the slide show in a deterioration prevention mode from among a normal mode and the deterioration prevention mode when the at least two or more thumbnail images of the plurality of thumbnail images are identical.

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.

An image forming apparatus which is capable of appropriately producing displays using installed expansion application modules without using a window manager module. The image forming apparatus produces a display in accordance with a display instruction for at least one of the installed expansion application modules. When display instructions for the expansion application modules overlap each other, priorities for display are assigned based on starting conditions related to the expansion application modules.

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.

Disclosed is a display control method for displaying, along a virtual axis, a given number of images in an image bundle including a first area and a second area. The display control method includes arranging two adjacent images in the first area apart with a first interval, arranging two adjacent images in the second area apart with a second interval in an overlapping manner, and hiding some of the images in the second area when the given number is greater than a predetermined first threshold number. The first area includes a first number of images, and the first number is less than the given number. The second area includes a second number of images, the second number is less than the given number, and the first interval is greater than the second interval.

A portable electronic device with a touch screen display for photo management is disclosed. One aspect of the invention involves a computer-implemented method in which the portable electronic device displays an array of thumbnail images corresponding to a set of photographic images. The device replaces the displayed array of thumbnail images with a user-selected photographic image upon detecting a user contact with a corresponding thumbnail image in the array. The user-selected photographic image is displayed at a larger scale than the corresponding thumbnail image. The portable device displays a different photographic image in replacement of the user-selected photographic image in accordance with a scrolling gesture. The scrolling gesture comprises a substantially horizontal movement of user contact with the touch screen display.

According to this method, the mapping color LUT has input colors that sample not only a source color gamut (included in an input encoding color space in which inputs colors of this LUT are encoded) but also a portion of the input encoding color space which is not included in the source color gamut. Preferably, this color LUT further includes output colors located outside the target color gamut. Accuracy of the mapping is improved, notably for source colors located near the boundary of the source color gamut.

Optical devices and cognitive prosthetics based on novel components for enhanced human vision, selective video/television display, digital processing and/or unique image analysis to modify the image that a user sees and significantly improve the perception of that user are disclosed. What the user sees is responsive to specific perceptual and informational needs of the user in real time. Devices from the parent patents are herein made both more useful in practical day-to-day use and are more widely applicable to improving the ability of a user to perceive visual stimuli.

An apparatus includes a recognition unit configured to recognize a function included in a communication partner and a determination unit configured to determine processing, which the communication partner performs on transmission data, according to the recognized function and a type of the transmission data.
