Abstract:
In an image processing apparatus, an encoding unit encodes a processed image; a determining unit determines whether a reference pixel has been subjected to the image processing; and a decoding unit decodes, when the determining unit determines that the reference pixel has been subjected to the image processing, a piece of rectangular block code data of a rectangular block thereby acquiring a second decoded image. The encoding unit refers to, when the determining unit determines that the reference pixel has been subjected to the image processing, the processed image and encodes the second decoded image.
Abstract:
An imaging system includes a plurality of imaging bodies, a moving part, and an imaging control unit. Each of the imaging bodies includes a first optical element that images a range containing a hemisphere that is centered at an optical axis and oriented in a first direction of the optical axis, and a second optical element that images a range containing a hemisphere that is centered at the optical axis and oriented in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The imaging bodies is arranged in a direction orthogonal to the optical axis. The moving part moves the imaging bodies on a straight line. The imaging control unit is configured to cause the imaging bodies to perform imaging in synchronization with each other, and acquire a taken image from each of the imaging bodies.
Abstract:
An image coding device encodes image data in units of encoding line number that is number of lines necessary for implementing encoding. The image coding device includes: an image-data transforming unit that transforms image data of lines, number of which is smaller than the encoding-line number, into to-be-encoded image data of the encoding-line number of lines; and an encoding unit that encodes the to-be-encoded image data.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes an image separating unit that separates and creates a plurality of derivative images from an input image based on feature of the input image; a coding unit that codes each of the derivative images separately, couples coded data of the derivative images, and generates multilayer structure data; and a controller that controls a code amount of coded data of at least one derivative image with a low code assignment priority out of the derivative images so that a data amount of the multilayer structure data is equal to or less than a limit amount.
Abstract:
A control apparatus may include a processor configured to execute one or more programs in order to control a control target, and an accepting unit configured to accept a user input. The processor may start a first program to cause the accepting unit to function at a time of starting the control apparatus, and thereafter start a second program for executing a function selected by the user input accepted by the accepting unit, amongst a plurality of functions executable by the control target, with preference over programs for executing other functions.
Abstract:
A map creation apparatus includes an image receiver configured to receive images in time series while moving; a first calculator configured to extract an image area indicating an object from the images and calculate a coordinate of the object in a world coordinate system; a second calculator configured to track the object in the extracted image area with the images and calculate an optical flow of the object; an eliminator configured to calculate a difference in coordinate between vanishing points generated by the movement of the image receiver and the object based on the optical flow, and eliminate the image area of the object from the images when determining the object as a moving object based on the calculated difference; and a storage controller configured to store map information including the coordinate of the object, not eliminated by the moving object eliminator, in the world coordinate system.

Abstract:
A determining unit determines whether a background pixel value of image data matches a predetermined comparison value. A replacing unit replaces, when the determining unit determines that the background pixel value does not match the comparison value, a pixel value of a pixel of the image data with a replacing value that is obtained by subtracting the pixel value from a predetermined maximum pixel value. An encoding unit generates encoded data by encoding the image data in which the pixel value is replaced with the replacing value by using a predetermined encoding system.
