A method and apparatus for generating a synthetic image wherein a specific object region is extracted, a three-dimensional shape information is extracted, and a video image and a CG image are drawn compoundly. A three dimensional shape information to the specific object region called a video image object, and the video object is be synthesized with CG images is created and stored on a hard disk. By using this data, a synthetic image is generated in non-real time fashion.

A CPU of a navigation device includes a clock unit, a continuous driving time measurement unit that measures continuous driving time from a traveling start time, a course stage prediction unit, and a presenting information controller. The course stage prediction unit selects based on the traveling start time, a first transition determination reference time for transition from a “first stage” to a “middle stage” from prepared data of the first transition determination reference time and a second transition determination reference time for transition from the “middle stage” to a “last stage” from prepared data of the second transition determination reference time. The course stage prediction unit then predicts a course stage by comparing the continuous driving time with the selected transition determination reference times. Depending on the predicted course stage, the presenting information controller presents information convenient for a driver in the predicted course stage.

A map image display device, a map image display method and a map image display program are disclosed. Upon determination of a map image for an objective to be displayed in response to a user's command input, a standard surface area setting unit 21 divides a surface area of a whole area shown in the map image to be displayed into n equal divisions to assign resulting values to standard surface areas. Then, a particular designation selecting unit 16 selects n pieces of relevant particular designations of areas, whose surface areas are closer to the standard surface areas, among areas involved in the map image for the objective to be displayed. A display image preparing unit 17 prepares image data to cause the selected n pieces of the relevant particular designations to be displayed on the map image as icons, and a display control unit 18 controllably drives the display unit based on image data. This causes the map image, determined responsive to the user's command input, to be displayed over the display unit, while enabling the n pieces of the particular designations to be displayed on the map image as the icons in a superimposed manner.

A shift control system of a toroidal CVT for a vehicle is arranged to calculate a command gear ratio by adding a desired gear ratio and a torque shift compensation quantity for compensating a difference between the desired gear ratio and an actual gear ratio which difference is generated by a shifting operation of the toroidal CVT, and to set a magnitude of the torque shift compensation quantity employed in an automatic shift range to be larger than a magnitude of the torque shift compensation quantity employed in other shift range except for the automatic shift range when the actual gear ratio is in a first gear ratio region except for a second gear ratio region including a largest gear ratio.

In a stereoscopic landform display apparatus disclosed herein, landform data comprising altitude value of landform are stored in an external storage (3), and when a display subject region to be displayed is designated by a display reference point and-the-like output section (5), landform data designated by this display subject region are read from the external storage (3), altitude magnification for emphasizing and displaying undulation state is obtained by a computation unit (1) based on landform data in this region, a computation of a stereoscopic landform image is performed from an altitude value which is multiplied by this altitude magnification, and this stereoscopic landform image is displayed to an image display section (7).

In a shadow elimination method and apparatus and a recording medium, a three-dimensional model is superimposed on a picture of a three-dimensional object contained in an image so as to fit the model to the picture. When the plane on which a shadow is created in the picture is designated, a position of a light source is estimated based on the plane of the three-dimensional model which is superimposed on the designated plane. Then, an area on which a shadow is to be created by a rendering for the three-dimensional model is searched from the estimated position of the light source. The area on which the searched plane is superimposed is decided to be the shadow area of the image and the shadow is eliminated from the shadow area.
摘要:
The minimum spacing between wires disposed on a printed circuit board of a printed circuit board ball grid array package is reduced. Wiring layers are narrower than in the prior art because they are not plated and because only one metal layer is plated on the wiring layers. The narrower wiring layers can be formed easily with small spaces between wires.

In an IN where the same service is provided by a plurality of SCPs, data consistency is maintained when an update occurs to subscriber data as a result of processing a service for a subscriber. When an update is made to a subscriber database in an SCP, update information is sent to the other SCPs by way of a route selected from among a route via a common channel signaling network, a route via a LAN, and a route via an SMS. Updates occurring during backup or restore processing on a main subscriber database in the SMS are accumulated within the SMS, and the accumulated updates are applied to the main subscriber database after completion of the processing.
