摘要:
When a content output apparatus which can use a plurality of content providing devices switches from a first content providing device to a second content providing device and displays a content, a determination section predicts a start-up timing of starting to prepare for making a content of the second content providing device available on the basis of an operation input by a user, which is obtained by an input section. The switching section supplies power to a second device processing section on the basis of the predicted start-up timing.

A vector block information indicating a plurality of line segment rows is read out from a block map. Each line segment row divides an area of a block from an area of a road in an image drawing region. Each point at which one end of a line segment row contacts with a boundary line of the image drawing region is set as a boundary point. In this case, a road crossing the boundary line of the image drawing region is indicated by a pair of line segment rows having a pair of boundary points close to each other. To determine an area of the road, the pair of boundary points are connected with each other through a connecting line segment. Therefore, a road area in the image drawing region can be automatically extracted from the block map. In addition, an end area of the road placed at the boundary line of the image drawing region is reshaped to have two right-angle corners at the end area of the road, a length of a road area at the boundary line of the image drawing region is shortened, an area of a narrow road is deleted from the road area, an area of a narrow road is widened, or a plurality of blocks placed in an administrative district is unified by deleting areas of a plurality of roads dividing the blocks.

A map editing apparatus is provided with various sections having respective editing functions which can be selectively specified for operating on one or more user-selected elements of a displayed map, with each editing function serving to automatically execute a specific editing operation, which may utilize one or more predetermined parameters. The apparatus includes a conformity management section having a function for detecting when execution of an editing operation will result in nonconformity in the map, such as mutual overlapping of map elements, and for automatically causing such an editing operation to be executed in a modified form, such as to prevent occurrence of the nonconformity.

An auditory display apparatus is provided that places sounds such that sounds whose fundamental frequencies are close to each other are not adjacent to each other. A sound transmission/reception section receives sound data. A sound analysis section analyzes the sound data, and calculates a fundamental frequency of the sound data. A sound placement section compares the fundamental frequency of the sound data with a fundamental frequency of adjacent sound data, and places the sound data such that a difference in fundamental frequency is maximized. A sound management section manages a placement position of the sound data. A sound mixing section mixes the sound data with the adjacent sound data. A sound output section outputs the sound data obtained by the mixture to a sound output device.

There is performed processing for displaying content on a video image so that the content is superimposed on the video image without blocking an important portion of the video image. A content display processing device includes a video image acquisition section that acquires a video image made up of a plurality of still images; a content acquisition section that acquires content to be displayed on the video image in a superimposed manner; an image processing section that extracts the still image from the video image; an image recognition section that detects, from the still image extracted by the image processing section, an area which includes at least a portion of an outer edge of the still image and a portion except a main display object in the still image; a content layout section that determines content display information indicating a layout and a size of the content according to the area detected by the image recognition section; and a display processing section that performs processing so as to display the content while the content is superimposed on the video image, in accordance with the content display information determined by the content layout section.

When a content output apparatus (100) which can use a plurality of content providing devices switches from a first content providing device (201) to a second content providing device (202) and displays a content, a determination section (130) predicts a start-up timing of starting to prepare for making a content of the second content providing device (202) available on the basis of an operation input by a user, which is obtained by an input section (110). The switching section (120) supplies power to a second device processing section (180) on the basis of the predicted start-up timing.

Disclosed is a display control apparatus that enables a plurality of users to view their respective desired content simultaneously while suppressing a sacrifice of screen size. In a display control section (204), a content screen display section (2041B) controls a display position and display size in an overall screen area for a plurality of content screens that display respective content so that each content display screen includes an occupied area that does not overlap another content screen, and generates and outputs display data of the plurality of content screens. A determination section (2043) determines whether or not one content screen displayed in a predetermined occupied area from among a plurality of occupied areas has been identified by a user. The content screen display section (2041B) generates display data for performing superimposed display of the plurality of content screens in an area larger than an occupied area based on a determination result of the determination section (2043).
摘要:
It is an object of the present invention to provide an information transmitting device which can transmit information through a network by using a powerless processor and insufficient storage capacity, and an information distributing system provided with the information transmitting device. The status describing unit 13 of the information transmitting device 1 produces a sentence written in natural language on the basis of the status information stored in the status storage unit 12 in response to the trigger signal from the application executing unit 11, produces a status abstract written in a markup language by marking the sentence, and stores the status abstract in the data holding unit 14. The transmission server unit 16 transmits the status abstract stored in the data holding unit 14 in response to a data transmission request received from the information acquiring terminal 2 through the network connecting unit 15.
