| 20080225311 | Image forming apparatus, image forming method and computer readable medium - An image forming apparatus includes a combining unit, an image forming unit, a verification unit and a controller. The combining unit combines data from a first path and data from a second path. The image forming unit forms a combined image based on combined image data which is obtained by combining, by the combining unit, original image data from the first path and additional image data from the second path and which is transmitted through a third path. The verification unit verifies combined data which is obtained by combining, by the combining unit, verification data from the first path and verification data from the second path and which is transmitted through the third path. The controller detects, based on a verification result by the verification unit, falsification of data in the first path, the second path and the third path. | 09-18-2008 |

| 20090015918 | DISPLAY DEVICE, DISPLAY CONTROLLING METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A display device which is capable of generating more parallaxes without reducing resolution and an image quality, a display controlling method, and a program are provided. An aperture ratio of a light source is set as 1/N, and liquid lenses are disposed at distances of focal lengths of the first liquid lens and the second liquid lens from the light source, respectively. A position controlling portion changes a position of a nonpolar liquid by a size of each of luminescent pixels as represented by the first liquid lens and the second liquid lens, which results in that emitted lights from respective luminescent pixels pass through either the first liquid lens or the second liquid lens to be emitted in directions different from one another as shown in the form of lights. The present embodiments can be applied to a parallax image displaying device. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090102827 | DRIVING METHOD FOR DISPLAY APPARATUS - A display apparatus is capable of performing a gradation display and a high-speed low-power-consumption display by controlling the colored state of each pixel to an appropriate state. A driving method for the display apparatus displays images through deposition and dissolution of a metal by impressing a predetermined voltage on each pixel. A voltage pulse or AC voltage having an amplitude of not more than a threshold for deposition of the metal is impressed, and a writing pulse or an erasing pulse is controlled according to the resultant current. Alternatively, an additional writing pulse is impressed when the current is lowered to or below a predetermined value, after the writing. Further, the state of the pixel is detected through the current, and a rewriting operation is selected according to the detected state. | 04-23-2009 |
