An imager for capturing and processing images for a variety of applications which may be connected to a transceiver such as a cell phone, a personal digital assistant or an internet appliance for transmitting the images over a limited bandwidth network, is described. The imaging applications include bar code and photograph still images, and permanent video and video phone motion images. The imager may be self-contained providing the image signal to be transmitted by the transceiver, or the imager and the transceiver may be combined into a single integrated unit. The imager comprises a high resolution CMOS image sensor, a processor for controlling the image sensor and for processing image data from the image sensor, and an interface for providing commands to the processor and for viewing displays generated by the processor. The method of processing the images includes the steps of determining the bandwidth of the network, selecting an imaging application, determining the image format required, acquiring image data in the image sensor, processing the image data into the format required, and transferring the data for transmission over the network.

摘要:
Publication articles each composed of a headline having relatively high information emphaticality and a text having relatively high information detailednessare coded on an article basis in an information provider apparatus. The coded information is transmitted to a user terminal. The transmitted information is first displayed on a display device of the user terminal in low magnification to display the headlines. The user selects a desired headline. The text corresponding to the selected headline is displayed in a magnification sufficient for making the displayed text legible. The novel setup realizes a publication contents information transmitting/viewing system by which a publication page can be viewed over and each can be read in generally the similar feeling and convenience as those of paper-based publications.
摘要:
The present invention comprises a display unit (10) which displays a composite image (38); a stylus (24) which is used to "write" on the composite image (38); a way of detecting (20) the position of the stylus (24) over the composite image (38); a video camera (12) mounted a short distance away from the video display (11) and aimed at the composite image (38); a light (23) which provides uniform illumination to the composite image (38); a mechanism for preventing video feedback (26); and a computer (22). A special configuration of cables (16, 28, 30, 32, 34) is used to interconnect the display (10), the stylus (24), the position detector (20), the video camera (12) and the computer (22). Two or more workstations (11) can be electrically connected to each other via cables (34) or over a network (76). Many variations of this invention can be created by connecting other components into the computer network (76). Various combinations of video mixers (39) and video buses (78) can be utilized instead of directly connecting the video cameras (12) to the computers (22) with cables (16). Three dimensional effects can be created by employing a second video camera (112), adjacent to the first (12), in combination with a pair of shuttering spectacles (102). Images of additional objects (98) can be provided by extra cameras (70) electrically connected in several different ways to the network. To enhance communication between operators (25) separated by large distances, microphones (74), loudspeakers (72), auxiliary cameras (70) and auxiliary video displays (66) can be provided at each workstation (11). Large scale versions of this invention can be constructed. In large scale versions the video display unit (10) is replaced with a large screen (88) and a video projector (90).

Methods and systems for allowing a contents list of a video camera recorder to be smoothly displayed on a television receiver and improve the performance of a selecting operation on video content by a user. A video camera recorder (source device) 10A and a television receiver (sink device) 30A are connected through an HDMI cable 1. The video camera recorder 10A is provided with an HDMI transmission unit (HDMI TX) 28 and a high-speed data line I/F 28A. The television receiver 30A is provided with an HDMI reception unit (HDMI RX) 32 and a high-speed data line I/F 32A. In response to a transmission request from the television receiver 30A side, the video camera recorder 10A transmits, at high speed, additional information (contents list and thumbnail data) to the television receiver 30A by using a high-speed data line constituted by specific lines of the HDMI cable 1.

摘要:
An information providing device is capable of communicating with an image forming device, a data managing device, and a transmission terminal. The information providing device includes a storage unit; a communication unit that transmits a forming instruction to instruct the image forming device to perform image forming, and receives, from the image forming device, storage location information indicating the data managing device that stores data obtained by image forming by the image forming device and indicating a storage location in the data managing device; and a storage location managing unit that generates, in the storage unit, management information in which identification information of the image data is associated with the storage location information. The communication unit receives the data saved in the storage location indicated by the storage location information from the data managing device and transmits the received data to the transmission terminal.

A control device of the present invention includes: a face position detecting section for detecting a position of a user's face in an image captured by a capturing device; a face recognition processing section for checking a partial image against reference face images, the partial image being at the position detected in the captured image, and extracting a reference face image that matches the face in the partial image; a user authentication section for specifying a user name that corresponds to the extracted reference face image; and a data checking section for (i) checking whether or not a multifunction printer receives print data added with the specified user name, and (ii) if it is confirmed that the multifunction printer receives the print data, operating an image forming section of the multifunction printer to form an image based on the print data. This realizes a control device which (i) authenticates a user in an easy way in which impersonation can be prevented without inconvenient operation, and (ii) prevents another user from accidentally viewing a printed matter.
