摘要:
A recording and/or reproducing apparatus arranged to permit an interchange of record bearing media and selection between recording and reproducing modes of operation on the medium comprises look-up device for looking up the presence or absence of an existing record in each recording or reproducing position on the record bearing medium loaded on the apparatus, and control unit arranged to control the look-up device to cause it to perform a look-up action in response to opening of a lid for replacement of the record bearing medium and to cut off the power supply upon completion of the look-up action. The control unit thus lowers electric energy consumption and saves electric energy from being wasted by the look-up action.
摘要:
A recording apparatus comprises a recording head arranged to record signals on a recording medium; a motor for shifting a relative position between the recording medium and the recording head; and a control circuit arranged to apply electric energy to the motor in starting the motor either in a first mode in which the electric energy is limited to a first value or in a second mode in which the electric energy is limited to a second value which is lower than the first value. Also disclosed is a motor control circuit which is highly suited to the recording apparatus. Detecting apparatus is also included to detect whether the power source is an A.C. adapter or a battery.

A solid-state image pickup apparatus having an electrode to eliminate surplus charges by surface charge recombination. The operating frequency which is applied to the electrode to perform the recombination is changed in accordance with the variable exposure time during the converting operation to change anti-blooming capability.
摘要:
An electronic imaging apparatus in which an exposure is controlled by using that output of an image pickup element which is obtained with exposure adjusting means in a corresponding position to the output of a photosensitive element solely used for light measurement, being characterized by including a control circuit for changing the reading-out speed over between a prescribed portion of the image sensing area to be used for the exposure control and the other portion than that prescribed portion, wherein the size and location of the aforesaid prescribed portion is made changeable by an adjusting member accessible from the outside of the apparatus.
摘要:
Control device for controlling the driving motion of an exposure member, such as a diaphragm or shutter, so as to variably control the aperture opening thereof, wherein a particular value for the diaphragm or shutter is determined and the diaphragm or shutter is set to the determined value, and if the determined value is detected by a detector while the diaphragm or shutter is in the initial state, the diaphragm or shutter is initially driven in the opening or closing direction.

An image pickup device including: a solid state image pickup element; a memory; an image pickup data generating unit for generating image pickup data through an image pickup operation of reading data from the solid state image pickup element and A/D converting the data; a first processing unit for storing the image pickup data in the memory; a noise data generating unit for generating noise data through an operation, similar to the image pickup operation in a non-exposure state, of reading data from the solid state image pickup element and A/D converting the data; and a second processing unit for generating a desired image pickup data by subtracting an average data of a plurality of noise data obtained by a plurality of repetitive operations of the noise data generating unit, from the image pickup data stored in the memory means.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus and method for providing images which coincide in reproduction time and atmosphere with BGM as a slideshow to a user. From sound data to be used for production of BGM, a head no-sound interval detection section detects a head no-sound interval and a tail no-sound interval detection section detects a tail no-sound interval while a tail fade-out interval detection section detects a tail fade-out interval. A play interval specification section specifies a play interval of the sound data other than the head and tail no-sound intervals, and an image content allocation section allocates photo album information and effect data to the play interval to produce vector data. A fade-out process setting section updates the vector data so that a fade-out process may be applied to images within the tail fade-out interval.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus and method is disclosed wherein slideshow images can be reproduced for an arbitrary period of time. A scaling coefficient calculation section divides a slideshow reproduction time period by a selected effect total time period to calculate the ratio between them as a scaling coefficient and supplies the calculated scaling coefficient to a correction section. The correction section corrects the reproduction time period of each effect of a deletion result supplied from a deletion candidate deletion section or each selected effect supplied from an effect selection section using the scaling coefficient supplied from the scaling coefficient calculation section so as to make the total reproduction time period of the selected effects coincide with a slideshow reproduction time period. The invention can be applied to a personal computer or the like which can handle still pictures.
