| 20080291283 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - In an image processing apparatus which generates an input signal when a mobile information terminal contacts a display surface and makes a wireless communication with the contacting mobile information terminal, it is difficult to make an appropriate display by discriminating whether a contact object is a mobile information terminal or a user's finger. To accomplish this, when a mobile information terminal ( | 11-27-2008 |
| 20090161155 | IMAGE OUTPUT APPARATUS AND IMAGE OUTPUT METHOD - An image output apparatus including a first storage unit and a second storage unit having a slower data access speed than the first storage unit, an input unit configured to input image data, a setting unit configured to set a threshold of remaining amount of the first storage unit, a detection unit configured to detect the remaining amount of the first storage unit in which the image data is stored, a determination unit configured to determine whether the remaining amount is smaller than the threshold, a control unit configured to control the storage units so that, when the determination unit determines the remaining amount is smaller than the threshold, image data which is smaller than the image data input by the input unit among the image data stored in the first storage unit is transferred to the second storage unit. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20100271668 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME - This invention provides an image processing apparatus which includes a plurality of circuit configuration units each of which can be reconfigured into one of a plurality of types of circuit configurations, and reduces an overhead incurred in the switching time period by fixing a circuit configuration of an optimal type in accordance with the frequency of appearance of pixel data having a certain attribute in a plurality of pixel data and the number of times of switching of the attribute of the pixel data from one to another. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20110157608 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF - An image processing apparatus stores pixel data of an input image in a storage apparatus after performing resolution conversion encoding, and performs a pixel interpolation process after reading out the pixel data stored in the storage apparatus and performing resolution conversion decoding. The image processing apparatus determines, when resolution conversion encoding the pixel data of the input image, whether a resolution of the pixel data will decrease due to the pixel interpolation process, based on attribute information indicating an attribute of the pixel data, and performs processing to decrease the resolution of the pixel data in the resolution conversion encoding, if it is determined that the resolution will decrease. | 06-30-2011 |
