Abstract:
An approach is provided that captures a digital image of an object that has a number of facets. The approach further determines the actual sizes of various facets found on the object. The actual sizes of the facets are used to identify compatible objects based, with the compatible objects being objects that can work with the object.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor executes a process comprising acquiring a frame with taking a photograph, acquiring document image data of a document from the frame, detecting shine on the document image data, determining whether the shine is equal to or smaller than a shine baseline, and acquiring a frame with retaking a photograph when the shine is neither equal to nor smaller than the shine baseline.
Abstract:
The invention relates to capturing a still or moving image as well as object position and displacement data for the image, storing the image and the data as a dimension extractable object, and utilizing the dimension extractable object.
Abstract:
An image processing system includes a portable terminal and an image processing apparatus. The portable terminal includes a transmission processing unit that transmits each of the image data in units of the page of the document. The image processing apparatus includes a reception processing unit, a determination processing unit, and an output processing unit. The reception processing unit receives each of the image data in units of the page of the document transmitted from the portable terminal. The determination processing unit determines a page sequence of each of the image data in units of the page of the document based on each of the image data in units of the page of the document received by the reception processing unit. The output processing unit outputs each of the image data in units of the page of the document received by the reception processing unit in accordance with the page sequence.
Abstract:
A mobile electronic device may have two or more rear facing camera to capture a first part of an environment, a second part of the environment, and a part of an item in the environment. A camera and a depth sensor of the mobile electronic device may capture biometric facial data to perform security verification. Characteristics of the environment may be identified based on the environmental data and results of the performed security verification.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system includes a processor and logic executable by the processor. The logic is configured to cause the processor to: capture video data using a mobile device, the video data comprising a plurality of frames; determine whether one or more of the frames depict a document exhibiting one or more defining characteristics; determine whether one or more of the frame(s) determined to depict the document also satisfy one or more predetermined quality control criteria; and in response to determining one or more of the frames depict the document and also satisfy the one or more predetermined quality control criteria, automatically capture an image of the document. Corresponding computer program products are also disclosed.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a magnification device for use by blind and/or low vision individuals. The device includes an X-Y table upon which an item to be magnified can be placed. A stationary camera arm and a pivotal monitor arm are oriented over the X-Y table. The monitor arm includes a video monitor pivotally mounted at its distal end. The camera arm also includes two laterally disposed lighting arms. A series of controls are provided along a lower edge of the monitor via a mounting bracket.
Abstract:
A method and device for aligning an image of a printed substrate using a mobile device. The method includes receiving, by an image capturing device, an image stream of a printed substrate; determining, by a processing device operably connected to the image capturing device, a location and a geometry of the printed substrate from the image stream; displaying, on a display operably connected to the processing device, the image stream; overlaying, by the processing device, at least a first visual marker onto the printed substrate as displayed in the image stream using the location and geometry; and instructing, by the processing device, a user of the mobile device to move the mobile device to align the mobile device and the printed substrate. The device includes the various hardware components configured to perform the method of aligning.
Abstract:
An image reader includes a first judging section which judges whether a newly captured image is an image obtained by page-turning of a book to a destination position of the page; a temporary storage section which temporarily stores the newly captured image as a previous captured image when it is judges that the newly captured image is not an image obtained by page-turning to a destination position; a second judging section which, prior to temporarily storing the newly captured image as a previous captured image, judges whether, based on a latest image temporarily stored as a previous captured image and the newly captured image to be temporarily stored, the latest captured image and the newly captured image are an image of same pages; and a determining section which determines the latest captured image as a storage target when it is judged that the latest captured image and the newly captured image are not an image of a same page.
Abstract:
A distance image acquisition unit captures a low-resolution image of an object placed on a document board, and an object detection unit corrects the low-resolution image and generates a low-resolution corrected image. A camera image acquisition unit captures a high-resolution image of the object placed on the document board, and an image processing unit corrects the high-resolution image and generates a high-resolution corrected image. A display unit displays the low-resolution corrected image until the high-resolution corrected image is generated, and displays the high-resolution corrected image when the high-resolution corrected image is generated.
