20080240673 | PLAYBACK APPARATUS, PLAYBACK METHOD, DISTRIBUTION SERVER, DISTRIBUTION METHOD, RECORDING MEDIUM AND INTEGRATED CIRCUIT - The present invention aims at providing a playback apparatus that performs playback control so as to prevent, in playback of content recorded on a recording medium, a decline of the value of the recording medium and content. | 10-02-2008 |
20100100969 | COPYRIGHT PROTECTION DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM AND REPRODUCTION DEVICE - If playback devices are prohibited from playing back contents recorded in R media, there occurs a problem that it takes more time to manufacture commercial ROM media. Conversely, if playback devices are permitted to play back contents recorded in R media, there occurs a problem that copyrights might be infringed. In view of these, the aim of the present invention is to provide a content protection data processing system and a playback device capable of determining whether to permit playback of a content recorded in a recording medium, based on a medium type of the recording medium and a signature type of a signature attached to a program, and switching a procedure relating to a digital signature for each signature type of the digital signature. This enables both the protection of the copyright of the content and the efficient manufacturing of commercial ROM media. | 04-22-2010 |
20100281263 | RECORDING DEVICE, SERVER DEVICE, RECORDING METHOD, RECORDING MEDIUM WITH COMPUTER PROGRAM RECORDED THEREIN AND INTEGRATED CIRCUIT - A recording device for recording one or more of a plurality of subcontents recorded on a first recording medium, onto a second recording medium, the first recording medium having further recorded thereon digest values of the subcontents, and a medium signature generated based on the digest values of the subcontents, the plurality of subcontents constituting one content, the recording device comprising: a subcontent acquisition unit operable to select and acquire one or more of subcontents permitted to be copied; an excluded digest value acquisition unit operable to acquire excluded digest values from the first recording medium, the excluded digest values being digest values of nonselected subcontents; a signature acquisition unit operable to acquire the medium signature from the first recording medium; and a write unit operable to write, onto the second recording medium, (i) the one or more selected subcontents, (ii) the excluded digest values, and (iii) the medium signature. | 11-04-2010 |
20120127337 | IMAGE CAPTURE DEVICE - An image capture device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes an image capture section | 05-24-2012 |
20120229669 | IMAGE CAPTURE DEVICE AND IMAGE PROCESSOR - In one embodiment, an image sensor includes, a bank | 09-13-2012 |
20120229677 | IMAGE GENERATOR, IMAGE GENERATING METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM - An exemplary image generator includes: an image quality improvement processing section configured to receive signals representing first, second, and third moving pictures, obtained by shooting the same subject, and configured to generate a new moving picture representing that subject; and an output terminal that outputs a signal representing the new moving picture. The second moving picture has a different color component from the first moving picture and each frame of the second moving picture has been obtained by performing an exposure process for a longer time than one frame period of the first moving picture. The third moving picture has the same color component as the second moving picture and each frame of the third moving picture has been obtained by performing an exposure process for a shorter time than one frame period of the second moving picture. | 09-13-2012 |
