Abstract:
A workflow control device includes a workflow management processing portion, a clumsiness detection processing portion, and a display processing portion. The workflow management processing portion manages a workflow for combining processes corresponding to specific operations on an electronic apparatus, in a specific order and performing execution instructions for the processes. The clumsiness detection processing portion detects clumsiness in an operation which has been performed by a user on the electronic apparatus and delayed from a threshold. The display processing portion causes an order of processes based on a workflow through which execution instructions for processes corresponding to operations of the user can be performed in order, to be displayed on a screen based on detection of the clumsiness.
Abstract:
Provided is an electronic device, including: a display unit that displays, on one screen, a plurality of objects to be selected by a user; a line-of-sight detection unit that detects visually-recognized coordinates on the display unit to which the user's line-of-sight is directed; an object visually-recognized time period calculation unit that calculates a time period during which the visually-recognized coordinates detected by the line-of-sight detection unit fall within a range of the object; and a selection exclusion unit that excludes the object from candidates to be selected by the user if the time period calculated by the object visually-recognized time period calculation unit is longer than a time period threshold value and a frequency at which the object is selected is higher than a frequency threshold value.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a server configured to create a web page including modifiable device information, wherein the web page is displayed on a client terminal, in response to a creation request transmitted from the client terminal. The image forming apparatus also includes a request standby unit configured to place the received creation request in a standby state upon reception of the creation request from the client terminal on which the web page is being displayed. The image forming apparatus additionally includes an event detecting unit configured to detect a modification indicating event for the device information. The image forming apparatus further includes a standby releasing unit configured to release the creation request from the standby state when the modification indicating event occurs and cause the server to create a web page including modified device information.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a sound output circuit, a notification sound control circuit, and a stop instruction accepting circuit. The sound output circuit outputs a sound. The notification sound control circuit controls a notification sound output by the sound output circuit. The stop instruction accepting circuit accepts a stop instruction of the notification sound. The notification sound control circuit increases frequency of the notification sound in phases as time elapses when the notification sound is output by the sound output circuit, and stops the notification sound output by the sound output circuit when the instruction is accepted by the stop instruction accepting circuit.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes an image reading unit configured to read information as image data, a character recognition unit configured to recognize individual characters included in the image data, a grouping unit configured to group the individual characters recognized into one or more character string based on character information indicating a format of the character, a character extraction unit configured to extract a character string for which a link is to be created based on an importance of the character string obtained by the grouping, a character search unit configured to search the image data in which the characters have been recognized for the character string having the same character base among the character strings extracted, and a link setting unit configured to link the character strings having the same character base that are retrieved to each other based on the importance.
Abstract:
A document management apparatus includes: a handwriting extracting unit configured to extract a handwritten comment area within a document image; a data management unit configured to store, in a storage device, document image data indicative of the document image and, in association therewith, handwritten data that defines content of the handwritten comment area within the document image; and a handwriting operation unit configured to update, upon receipt of an operation for editing content of the handwritten comment area, the handwritten data in accordance with the operation for editing.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a touch panel that detects operation point coordinates of touch input by a user and a line-of-sight detection section that calculates the coordinates of a gaze point on the touch panel at which a line of sight of the user is directed in a specific time range from a time point of the touch input on the touch panel by the user. The electronic device further includes a line-of-sight correction area calculation section that calculates a line-of-sight correction area in a specific range from the coordinates of the gaze point on the touch panel. The electronic device also includes an operation coordinate line-of-sight correction section that a) changes the operation point coordinates to the coordinates of the gaze point if the operation point coordinates are within the line-of-sight correction area; and b) does not change the operation point coordinates if the operation point coordinates are not within the line-of-sight correction area.
