Abstract:
A game controller includes a plurality of LEDs formed on the rear of a case. The plurality of LEDs are arranged two-dimensionally in its layout area. The game controller has a plurality of PWM control units which are provided inside the case and control the lighting of the plurality of LEDs, respectively. The PWM control units control the lighting of the LEDs based on a control signal from a game apparatus. The game apparatus acquires a captured image of the game controller, and acquires the position of the game controller in the captured image based on the positions of the LEDs in the captured image.
Abstract:
A tile image sequence obtained by dividing a frame into a predetermined size is further divided into another predetermined size on an image plane to generate a voxel (for example, a voxel. If a redundancy in a space direction or a time direction exists, then data is reduced in the direction, and sequences in the time direction are deployed on a two-dimensional plane. Voxel images are placed on an image plane of a predetermined size to generate one integrated image. In a grouping pattern which exhibits a minimum quantization error, pixels are collectively placed in the region of each voxel image for each group (integrated image). The integrated image after the re-placement is compressed in accordance with a predetermined compression method to generate a compressed image and reference information for determining the position of a needed pixel.
Abstract:
An image pickup apparatus includes: an image data production unit configured to produce data of a plurality of kinds of images from an image frame obtained by picking up an image of an object as a moving picture for each of pixel strings which configure a row; and an image sending unit configured to extract a pixel string in a region requested from a host terminal from within the data of each of the plurality of kinds of images and connect the pixel strings to each other for each unit number of pixels for connection determined on the basis of a given rule to produce a stream and then transmit the stream to the host terminal. The image sending unit switchably determines whether the unit number of pixels for connection is to be set to a fixed value or a variable value in response to the kind of each image.
Abstract:
A frame sequence of moving picture data is divided into a tile image sequence, and the color space of the tile image sequence is converted to generate a YCbCr image sequence. Each frame is reduced to ½ time in the vertical and horizontal directions, and a compression process is carried out to generate compression data of a reference image. The compression data of the reference image is decoded and decompressed similarly as upon image display to restore a YCbCr image as the reference image, and a difference image sequence is generated from the reference image and the original YCbCr image. Then, compression data of a difference image is generated, and compression data obtained by connecting the compression data of the reference image and the compression data of the difference image is generated for every four frames of a tile image.
Abstract:
Methods and Apparatus provide for obtaining a data sequence representative of a three-dimensional parameter space; forming a plurality of coding units by dividing, in three dimensions, the data sequence subject; and generating, for each of the plurality of coding units: (i) a palette defined by two representative values, and (ii) a plurality of indices, each index representing a respective original data point as a value, determined by linear interpolation, to be one of, or an intermediate value between, the representative values, and setting the palette and the plurality of indices for each of the coding units as compressed data.

Abstract:
An original image to be edited is displayed using hierarchical data. As a user draws a figure in a region of the image as an edit action, an image data updating unit generates a layer having a hierarchical structure composed of the rendered region only. More specifically, the image of the region to be edited is used as the lowermost hierarchical level, and upper hierarchical levels than this lowermost level are generated by reducing the lowermost level, as appropriate, so as to produce hierarchical data. As, during image display, it is checked that the updated region is contained in a frame to be displayed anew, the image of the layer is displayed by superposing the frame on the original hierarchical data.
