Abstract: A conference apparatus is adapted to advantageously perform a conference with a remote counterpart apparatus, store information on the events of the conference and then provide a realistic reproduction of those events. To this end, the conference apparatus includes an image memory for storing image information entered during the conference. A shared board presents the same image frame to the conference apparatus and to the counterpart apparatus, where the shared board is adapted to have shared information written therein by both the conference apparatus and by the counterpart apparatus, and a shared information memory, different from the image memory time-sequentially stores the shared information written into the shared board. To reproduce the conference in response to time information indicating a time corresponding to a portion of the stored shared information, the conference apparatus reproduces the stored shared information time-sequentially at a high speed until reaching the portion and thereafter synchronously reproduces both the stored image information and the stored shared information time-sequentially at a lower, substantially real-time speed to provide a realistic reproduction of events at the conference.

Abstract: An image system which captures, along with the images, information defining both the position and the orientation of the camera along with the distance to the subject. A video camera is attached to three accelerometers, two gyroscopes, and a rangefinder. Data gathered from these devices and defining the pitch, yaw, and roll of the camera, the camera's acceleration, and the distance to the subject is captured and recorded along with video images. The video images are later stored within a computer's data base along with data defining the position and orientation of the camera and the distance to the subject for each image, this latter data being computed from the captured data. The images may then be presented to the user in a three-dimensional display in which the user can navigate through the images using a joystick device, with the images located in positions corresponding to the positions in space of the objects that were imaged.

Abstract: The present invention is a video signal recording and reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing video signals (SvN) inputted from a plurality (n) of different cameras (CMn). A frame switcher (2) sequentially selects one of the video signals (SvN) in prescribed order, and identifying signal adders (10a, 10b) add an identifying signal (Sid) representing a corresponding camera number (N) to the selected video signal (SvN) and generate recording signals (Sr1, Sr2). A recording signal processor (11) modulates the recording signals (Sr1, Sr2) and recording magnetic heads (16a, 16b) record them on a magnetic tape (4). Reproducing heads (15a, 15b) reproduce a recorded recording signal (Sr′) from the magnetic tape (4) and a reproducing processor (14) demodulates the signal. A camera number detector (23) detects the identifying signal (Sid) from a demodulated video signal (Sr2′). Memory (24) stores the demodulated video signal (Sr2′) in relation to the detected identifying signal (Sid), thereby allowing high-speed and normal-speed replay of video from a desired video signal source without video signals from a plurality of video signal sources mixed into.
