Abstract:
An operation display apparatus includes: an operating unit; a display unit; a position detecting unit configured to detect a position of a predetermined portable terminal; a free region detecting unit configured to detect a free region on a display screen of at least one of the display unit and the portable terminal; and an operation control unit configured to display an image of the operating unit in the free region when the position of the portable terminal detected by the position detecting unit is in front of a front side of the operating unit, and accept an operation performed on the image, as an operation received by the operating unit, the free region being detected by the free region detecting unit.
Abstract:
In the case where a projector is used in combination with another projector, individual use of only one projector is enabled. A slave projector operates together with a master projector. In this case, the operation methods to start up the projector are a first method in which only a first key is pressed, a second method in which the first key and a second key are pressed simultaneously, and a third method in which the first key and a third key are pressed simultaneously. When the slave projector detects a user's operation with a remote controller, if the operation is done by the first method or the second method, the slave projector ignores this operation. Meanwhile, if the operation is done by the second method, the slave projector starts up the own device irrespective of the command from the master.
Abstract:
A display system displays images projected by a plurality of projection type display devices so as to overlap each other. When a user uses this system, events occurring in these devices can be reliably delivered to the user. A commander and a slave project and display images so as to overlap each other. When a notification-required event occurs in the commander or the slave, the commander specifies this notification-required event. Then, the commander displays a first OSD image between the first OSD image and a second OSD image, which form an image corresponding to the specified notification-required event, in a predetermined region of a first screen of screens on which images are displayed. Also, the commander outputs to the slave a control signal to display the second OSD image in the predetermined region. The slave displays the second OSD image in the predetermined region when the control signal is received.
Abstract:
Device B requests a network service of device A, and devices B and A are set in a client mode and server mode, respectively. Further, a mode is set in which the console unit of device A is controlled from that of device B, and image data scanned and created by the scanner of device B is processed as image data scanned by that of device A. In response to process start designation input from the console unit of device B, device A designates device B to scan an image using the scanner of device B. In response to the designation, device B transmits image data scanned by the scanner of device B to device A. Device A executes a process corresponding to setting information for the image data.
Abstract:
A digital multi-function peripheral includes a function executing unit that executes plural functions including a printing function and a network communication function and a control circuit that controls this function executing unit. The control circuit includes a cooperation control unit that checks connection to a network, selectively combines the functions of the function executing unit with functions unique to other digital multi-function peripherals present on the network, and controls cooperation of these functions.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus that executes information sharing among a plurality of image forming apparatuses includes a communication circuit, a set value management circuit, a storage circuit, and a distribution hold list management circuit. The communication circuit ensures communication with another image forming apparatus of the plurality of the image forming apparatuses. The set value management circuit distributes, based on a master authority as an authority for distributing a changed set value to the other image forming apparatus, the changed set value to the other image forming apparatus. The storage circuit, when the distribution fails, stores a distribution hold list that includes a combination of: an identifier of another image forming apparatus where the distribution has failed, and an item name and value of a set value where the distribution has failed. The distribution hold list management circuit manages the stored distribution hold list.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer program products for capturing and analyzing image data, preferably video data, are disclosed. The inventive concepts include using multiple frames of image data to generate a composite image, where the composite image may be characterized by a higher resolution than one or more of the individual frames used to generate the composite image, and/or absence of a blurred region present in one or more of the individual frames. Inventive techniques also include determining a minimum capture resolution appropriate for capturing images of particular objects for downstream processing, and optionally triggering generation of a composite image having sufficient resolution to facilitate the downstream processing in response to detecting one or more frames of image data are characterized by a resolution, and/or a region having a resolution, less than the minimum capture resolution appropriate for capturing images of those particular objects.

Abstract:
An information processing system includes first information processing devices, and a second information processing device. Each of the first information processing devices includes a request transmitter for transmitting a connection request to the second information processing device; a first storage unit for storing job information to be executed by an apparatus; a retrieval unit for transmitting a request for job information to the second information processing device and receiving the job information; and a first reply unit for transmitting the job information to the apparatus. The second information processing device includes a collection unit for collecting the job information from each of the first storage units of the first information processing devices other than a source of a retrieval request; and a second reply unit for transmitting the job information to the source of the retrieval request.
Abstract:
A memory card is described, the memory card having a wireless transceiver module, a central processor, and a storage module. The memory card when physically and operably engaged in and with a digital camera, is configured to export digital data captured by the digital camera to a remote camera through the wireless transceiver module in response to an instruction received by the central processor from an inbuilt processor of the digital camera, and receive digital data from the remote camera through the wireless transceiver module in response to an instruction received by the central processor from the inbuilt processor.
