Abstract:
There is provided an electronic apparatus, and an improved design flexibility and minimized power consumption for biometric authentication in an electronic apparatus that performs biometric authentication, the electronic apparatus including: a wearable part movable to be worn on a user's body; and a biometric information acquisition unit provided on the wearable part and configured to acquire biometric information of the user for user authentication. This configuration makes it possible to improve design flexibility and minimize power consumption for biometric authentication in an electronic apparatus that performs biometric authentication.
Abstract:
There is provided a speckle measurement apparatus to improve accuracy of flow velocity measurement or the like of particulates such as erythrocytes, the speckle measurement apparatus including an imager that captures scattered light images returned from an object to be measured when the object to be measured is irradiated with coherent light as speckle images, and a controller that determines a measurement area that is the same site of the object to be measured in a plurality of the speckle images captured continuously in time series by the imager by incorporating a displacement amount of a relative positional relationship between the object to be measured and the imager.
Abstract:
Provided is an image processing device including an acquisition unit configured to acquire information on an imaging position and an imaging direction in units of frame images that constitute a moving image obtained through capturing by an imaging unit, a converted image generation unit configured to generate converted images having different imaging directions for each frame image that constitutes the moving image based on the frame image itself and preceding and succeeding frame images of the frame image, an evaluation value calculation unit configured to calculate an evaluation value for each converted moving image constituted by combining the converted image and the original frame image, the evaluation value being used to evaluate a blur between the converted images or between the original frame images, and a selection unit configured to select a converted moving image with less blur based on an evaluation value calculated by the evaluation value calculation unit.
Abstract:
A device and a method are provided which perform movement vector calculation processing from photographing images for which a microlens array is used without generating whole images. Specifically, consecutive photographing images photographed by an imaging section having a microlens array are input, and a movement vector between the images is calculated. A movement vector calculating section calculates the movement vector corresponding to a feature point by using microlens photographing images photographed by respective microlenses. When the movement vector corresponding to the feature point within duplicate image regions having the same image region within a plurality of microlens photographing images is calculated, an average value of a plurality of movement vectors corresponding to the same feature point is calculated and is set as the movement vector of the feature point. Alternatively, an average value of plural movement vectors remaining after an outlier (abnormal value) is excluded is calculated and is set as the movement vector of the feature point.
Abstract:
An apparatus including circuitry configured to determine a position of a mouth of a user that is distinguishable among a plurality of people, and control an acquisition condition for collecting a sound based on the determined position of the user's mouth.

Abstract:
There is provided an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program capable of obtaining accurate blood flow information while suppressing power consumption. The information processing apparatus includes: an estimation unit configured to estimate another kind of blood flow information associated with one kind of blood flow information from the one kind of blood flow information obtained through blood flow measurement on the basis of relation information indicating a relation between the two different kinds of blood flow information.
Abstract:
Provided is an image processing device including an eye-gaze direction detection unit configured to detect an eye-gaze direction of a user toward an image, an estimation unit configured to estimate a gaze area in the image on the basis of the eye-gaze direction and the image, the eye-gaze direction being detected by the eye-gaze direction detection unit, a chased object detection unit configured to detect a chased object being eye-chased by the user in the image, on the basis of the time-series gaze areas estimated by the estimation unit, a tracking unit configured to search for and track the chased object detected by the chased object detection unit, and an image control unit configured to control an image of the chased object tracked by the tracking unit.
