An imaging apparatus includes a first output unit configured to output, outside the imaging apparatus, a first image that an image sensor, an imaging region of which is divided into a plurality of regions, has captured while an exposure condition is controlled for each of the plurality of regions, and a second output unit configured to output, outside the imaging apparatus, exposure information for each of the plurality of regions, the exposure information indicating the exposure condition to be applied to the corresponding one of the plurality of regions when the first image is captured. The second output unit is configured to complete outputting exposure information for a region to be subjected to exposure correction processing in the first image, out of the plurality of regions, before the first output unit completes outputting an image of the region to be subjected to exposure correction processing.

A document management facility may process volumes of physical documents for digital imaging. The document management facility may utilize robotic apparatus to perform the various functions for processing the documents, which may include document intake, document storage, document digitization, and/or document removal. Digital versions of the documents may be accessed with a document management system.

A Web browser is installed on an information processing apparatus coupled to a server apparatus that provides a single-page application. The Web browser obtains a Web content for displaying pages in the single-page application. The Web content includes screen definition information in which content elements are defined for respective page identification information items and includes configuration information in which a configuration between the page identification information items is defined. The Web browser creates, based on the configuration information, component information including, for the respective page identification information items, page components of the pages. When an operation for a page transition is performed, the Web browser displays a page after the transition based on a content element corresponding to a page identification information item of the page after the transition and on a page component corresponding to the page identification information item of the page after the transition.

An image transmitting apparatus is provided that automatically displays an address before transmission if a user gives an instruction for adding a mark such as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “IMPORTANT”. The image transmitting apparatus of the present invention is the image transmitting apparatus transmits image data to a specified address includes an image adding portion that adds a predetermined specific image to the image data in accordance with a user's operation, wherein displays a specified address of image data before transmitting the image data to which it is indicated to add the specific image and transmits the image data with the specific image added in accordance with a user's confirming operation.

An information processing system includes at least one information processing apparatus. The system includes a memory and circuitry. The memory stores, for each of a plurality of flows, each flow containing a series of processes executable to electronic data, flow information that defines program identification information identifying one or more programs executing the flow of series of processes and an execution order of the one or more programs, in association with flow identification information. The memory further stores event identification information in association with the flow identification information. Based on an occurrence of an event, the circuitry reads the flow identification information associated with the event identification information identifying the occurred event, and controls the at least one information processing apparatus to execute each of the one or more programs in the execution order, as defined in the flow information identified by the read flow identification information.

A surface object comprises a surface with a boundary, the surface having a background color. At least one optical marker is provided on the surface for assisting of image processing for improving appearance of an image of the surface with the boundary. At least one optical marker includes at least one color which is lighter or darker than the background color and the color different ΔE between the background color and the at least one color of the optical marker being between ΔE=2 and ΔE=18.

A document management facility may process volumes of physical documents for digital imaging. The document management facility may utilize robotic apparatus to perform the various functions for processing the documents, which may include document intake, document storage, document digitization, and/or document removal. Digital versions of the documents may be accessed with a document management system.

A portable device and a method for controlling the same are disclosed, which senses an image including a pattern code. The mobile device includes a camera unit configured to sense an image; a display unit configured to display the image; a sensor unit configured to detect an input signal and transmit the detected input signal to a processor; and the processor configured to control the display unit, the camera unit and the sensor unit, wherein the processor further configured to: provide an image capturing interface, wherein the image capturing interface displays the image sensed by the camera unit and an image capturing trigger for storing the image, simultaneously display a pattern code trigger for storing information of a pattern code in the image capturing interface only when the pattern code is recognized from the image.

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.

An example cloud server includes a communication interface apparatus, a processor, and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor. The processor may receive a request for an image forming job including a metadata tag through the communication interface apparatus by executing the instructions, may convert the metadata tag included in the received request for the image forming job into option information used for the image forming job, and may process the image forming job based on the option information.
