Abstract:
A control device for controlling a network device connected to a network. The control device comprises a communication interface adapted to receive description information of the network device from the network device via the network, and a controller adapted to automatically generate an object for the network device using the description information after the description information is received from the network device. The object is adapted to generate a control panel for controlling the network device.
Abstract:
A peripheral device which is connected with a host computer is prevented from unexpectedly coming to be in a disconnection state due to control of the host computer. Further, even when the peripheral device such as an electronic camera can not enough receive power necessary for the device itself from a connection line such as a USB, the peripheral device is made to be able to use the power effectively. To achieve the above, there is disclosed a computer peripheral device which is connected with the host computer and comprises a connection signal transmission unit for transmitting to the host computer a signal to control the connection with the host computer and a control unit for shifting an operation state of the computer peripheral device to a low consumption current mode after the connection signal transmission unit transmitted to the host computer a signal to control into the disconnection state.
Abstract:
A sliding type portable telephone has: a first operation unit for receiving input operations from the user while the open/close unit is in a contracted state; a second operation unit for receiving input operations from the user while the open/close unit is in an extended state; and a control unit for performing processing in response to the input operations that the operation units and received from the user. When the extended state is detected after processing is performed that responds to the first input operation received from the user via the first operation unit while in the contracted state, the control unit performs processing that responds to a second input operation, which can be a next input operation, before receiving the input operation subsequent to the first input operation from the user via the second operation unit.
Abstract:
An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit, a record and reproduction unit for recording and reproducing image data on and from a record medium, a display unit, a communication unit arranged to transmit captured image data and reproduced image data to an external device, and a mode switch unit for switching over a plurality of operation modes in accordance with a connection status of the communication unit. The plurality of operation modes includes a first mode in which the communication unit is operated and operations of the imaging unit and the display unit are stopped; a second mode in which the communication unit and the display unit are operated to display an image reproduced from the record medium on the display unit, and an operation of the imaging unit is stopped; and a third mode in which the imaging unit, the display unit, and the communication unit are operated to display an image captured by the imaging unit on the display unit.
Abstract:
To provide a high-performance image pickup system capable of reducing an image area and effectively using a memory, in transfer of one-frame image data from an image pickup device to an image processing circuit, the one-frame image data is divided into a plurality of blocks, and the blocks are transferred. The image processing circuit temporarily stores the one-block image data in a memory circuit and performs predetermined image processing of the stored one-block image data. The image processing circuit then temporarily stores the next one-block image data in the memory circuit and performs predetermined image processing for this stored one-block image data. The predetermined image processing can be performed in units of blocks. The necessary image area can have a capacity of at least one block in the memory circuit in the image processing circuit.
