摘要:
An image recorder is provided which assures recording even if its primary recorder is inoperable. The recorder includes an image compression processor to compress input images, a buffer to buffer the compressed image data, a first recorder to record the image data, and a second recorder for recording the image data if the first recorder is inoperable. The second recorder typically operates with a recording rate different from that of the first data recorder.

A stereoscopic imaging system includes a stereoscopic imaging apparatus having a plurality of imaging modules to pick up an image and an imaging sync control module to arithmetically process the video signals output from the plurality of the imaging modules for the stereoscopic imaging operation. In the case where the imaging modules control the exposure using an electronic shutter function and come to have different timing of the center of gravity of the exposure period, an imaging sync control module sets the plurality of the imaging modules at the same timing of the center of gravity of the exposure period by displacing the phase of the timing of the center of gravity of the exposure period of the imaging modules thereby to prevent the image processing capability of the stereoscopic imaging operation from being reduced.

An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit that receives image data in response to a photographic subject, a face detection unit that detects a human face from the received image data, a photometry unit that performs a photometry of the detected human face, an exposure control unit that calculates a target exposure amount in accordance with a photometry result to calculate an exposure control value, and an exposure correction control unit that determines an exposure in response to the target exposure amount, wherein an exposure correction unit performs an exposure correction by using an exposure target determined by the exposure correction control unit, as an area smaller than a domain of the human face detected by the face detection unit is set to the photometry area.
摘要:
A scheduling method in which a communication apparatus communicates data with a plurality of users by preferentially allocating a data sequence to a default subchannel segment that is different from another-cell allocation subchannel segment. As many data sequences as can be allocated to the default subchannel segment are selected and the selected data sequences allocated to the default subchannel segment. In downlink scheduling, the data sequences are selected in order from a data sequence subjected to a maximum level of interference from an adjacent base station. In uplink scheduling, the data sequences are selected in order from a data sequence that causes a maximum level of interference to the adjacent base station because of data communication. A data sequence not allocated to the default subchannel segment is allocated to the other-cell allocation subchannel segment when allocation of all the data sequences to the default subchannel segment fails.

When video data is reproduced by a recording/reproduction unit, an output unit outputs occurrence information on an object, which is not included in the video data being output by the output unit but is included the video data recorded on a recording medium, to a display unit. While the video data is being reproduced from the recording medium by the recording/reproduction unit, an instruction specifying a predetermined object condition including a non-reproduction object is input based on the occurrence information and the reproduction operation is performed by extracting video data satisfying the object condition.

An on-board wireless communication apparatus using an OFDMA scheme includes: a position information acquisition unit which estimates a position after a predetermined time period based on base station position information, mobile station position information, and speed information of mobile station as estimated mobile station position information; a transmission path information storage unit which determines a transmission rate to be applied based on the estimated position information and a distribution of the transmission rate determined by a distance from the base station; a reception buffer unit which stores received data; a reception buffer amount adjustment unit which determines a data amount to be received based on a data storage amount from the buffer unit and a type of the data therein; and a band allocation unit which determines a band requested to the base station by the transmission rate from the storage unit and the data amount from the adjustment unit.

A hybrid video camera with a built-in hard drive and optical disk drive plus removable media read/write unit is disclosed. The video camera has a face detection function, which is used to split a video stream of a scene shot at the position of a frame containing no human face images, thereby realizing automatic scene-split dubbing without impairing the scene continuity. With this feature, it is possible, when watching a home video movie, to avoid sudden stop of playback of the scene otherwise occurring due to improper splitting of the scene at its run-on part during dubbing by letting the scene be dividedly recorded on a plurality of disks.
