Abstract:
An image processing system includes a brightness polarization superimposing unit 20. The brightness polarization superimposing unit 20 superimposes, on a brightness image, polarization information of an image IMP that includes the polarization information, as a change in brightness of each pixel. The image processing system has a function of outputting an image obtained by superimposition by the brightness polarization superimposing unit as an output image IMO.
Abstract:
According to an embodiment, provided is an image processing system that includes: a light source that emits light; an imaging unit including an imaging element that captures light emitted and reflected from a foreign matter attached to the other surface of the transparent member and that captures light transmitted through the transparent member from the other surface side; and an image analyzing unit that analyzes captured image data. The captured image data is formed of a first image area frame used for detecting a foreign matter, and is formed of a second image area frame that corresponds to an effective imaging area excluding a predetermined area. Different rules are applied to read pixel data of between the first image area frame and the second image area frame.

Abstract:
A biological information measuring technique with improved reliability is proposed. A method of measuring biological information using an optical element with a totally reflecting surface, which is to be brought into contact with an object to be observed, is provided. The method includes, after the optical element has been in contact with the object to be observed, acquiring an absorbance at the totally reflecting surface in a state where the optical element is not in contact with the object to be observed, and determining by an information processing apparatus whether the object to be observed needs to be cleaned, based on the absorbance.

ABSTRACT An object identifying apparatus is disclosed, including: an imaging part, and an object identification processing part. The imaging part receives two polarized lights having a different polarization direction included in light reflected from the object existing in the image pickup area and captures two polarization images. The object identification processing part conducts an identification process for identifying the object existing at a place corresponding to each of multiple process areas in the image pickup area by using the two polarization images captured by the imaging part.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus that includes an edge-enhancement filter that enhances sharpness of an image is provided. The edge-enhancement filter includes distance calculators that calculate values of a distance between a target pixel and an optical center of a captured image in two or more axial directions, edge detection filters that detect edge amounts in two directions, multipliers that multiplies each of the edge amounts detected by the edge detection filters by one of the distance values of a corresponding one of the axial directions, a first adder that adds outputs of the multipliers together, and a second adder that adds a pixel value of the target pixel and an output of the first adder. A coring unit can be interposed between the first adder and the second adder if necessary.
Abstract:
A wide-angle lens is disclosed that includes a front lens group and a rear lens group that are arranged in order from an object side to an image side with an aperture being arranged between the front lens group and the rear lens group. The front lens group includes at least two lenses arranged toward the object side that have positive powers, and at least one lens arranged toward the image side that has a negative power. The rear lens group includes at least one lens having a positive power. One of the lenses of the front lens group arranged second in order from the object side has a lens face that is arranged into an aspheric surface. The front lens group, the aperture, and the rear lens group make up an image forming system having an angle of view greater than 180 degrees.
