An image forming apparatus 10a includes (i) an image input apparatus 1, (ii) a control section 5a, (iii) a document detecting section 24 including a blank page detecting section and a separator sheet detecting section, and (iv) a file creating section 31 for creating a file of image data. The image input apparatus 1 has a double-side reading function. The file creating section 31 has a blank page skipping function and a separating function. The control section 5a includes a function setting section 51 for enabling the double-side reading function and the blank page skipping function when enabling the separating function.

An image matching device includes a section calculates feature points on an input document image, a section that calculates features of the input document image in accordance with a relative position between the calculated feature points, and sections for comparing the calculated features of the input document image with features of a reference document image to determine whether the input document image is similar to the reference document image. When it is determined that the input and reference documents are similar, a document discrimination section determines a position of an image on the input document and similar to the reference document image, in accordance with the positions of the coordinates of the feature points on the input document and on the reference document.

The present printing system comprises a host computer (1)that orders scanners (2), digital cameras (3) and printers (4) to execute image processing, the host computer (1) setting up items of image processing to be performed by the printer (4) depending on the model of scanner (2) or digital camera (3) being used. The host computer (1) can set up the most suitable image processing items according to what kind of scanner (2) or digital camera (3) is used. Of the scanner (2), digital camera (3) and printer (4), the device having better processing ability can be assigned to more processes so that the time required for printing is shortened efficiently.

In the image processing apparatus of the present invention, when a document is read, a document matching process section determines whether the document is similar to a reference document or not. When the document is similar to the reference document, the document matching process section further determines whether the document has been zoomed (size of the document has been changed). When the document has been zoomed, an editing process section restores the size of the document to the size of the reference document. This provides an image processing apparatus capable of restoring the changed size of a document in a predetermined format such as a form document and an application document to its original size.

A display system includes a liquid crystal display apparatus and an operating device. The operating device can point a desired position on a display screen of the display apparatus and capture an image of the display apparatus to obtain the captured image including the desired position pointed by the operating device. The display system includes an image analyzing section for analyzing the captured image obtained by the capture to find reference light areas in the display apparatus and to detect the desired position on the display screen based on positions of the reference light areas in the captured image. The display apparatus also includes a blinking controlling section which controls blinking conditions of all the backlight units in the display apparatus to differ a blinking condition of two or more reference light area backlight units from that of the other backlight units. This allows properly detecting the desired position on the display screen pointed by the operating device.

In an image data output processing apparatus of the present invention, an image matching section is capable of determining whether a similarity exists between each image of an N-up document and a reference document when input image data is indicative of the N-up document. An output process control section is capable of regulating an output process of each image in accordance with a result of determining whether the similarity exists between each image of the N-up document and the reference document. This allows detecting with high accuracy a document image under regulation on the output process and regulating the output process, when the input image data is indicative of an N-up document and includes the document image under regulation on the output process.
摘要:
A plurality of infrared-light-emitting areas are displayed in a display screen of a liquid crystal display apparatus in a method that allows each of the infrared-light-emitting areas to be distinguished. Then, an image in a direction of a pointed position is captured by an operating device. Based on a result of distinguishing each of the infrared-light-emitting areas and a position of each of the infrared-light-emitting areas, a pointed position on the display screen is calculated. This makes it possible to properly detect the pointed position on the display screen pointed by the operating device, regardless of (i) a distance between the operating device and the display apparatus and (ii) a rotation angle of the operating device around an axis in an image capture direction of the operating device.
摘要:
In an image matching apparatus of the present invention, only a connected region in which the number of pixels included therein exceeds a threshold value, among connected regions that are specified by a labeling process section, is sent to a centroid calculation process section from a threshold value processing section, and a centroid (feature point) of the connected region is calculated. When it is determined that a target document to be matched is an N-up document, the threshold value processing section uses, instead of a default threshold value, a variant threshold value that varies depending on the number of images laid out on the N-up document and a document size that are found and detected by an N-up document determination section and a document size detection section. This makes it possible to determine a similarity to a reference document with high accuracy even in a case of an N-up document, i.e., a case where each target image to be matched is reduced in size from an original image.
