The predetermined-area management system includes: a storage unit that stores image identification information for identifying image data and predetermined-area information for identifying a predetermined area in the image data in association with each other; a receiving unit that receives image identification information that is transmitted from the communication terminal; an extraction unit that searches the storage unit by using the image identification information received by the receiving unit so as to extract associated predetermined-area information; and a transmitting unit that transmits, to the communication terminal, the predetermined-area information extracted by the extraction unit. | 06-05-2014 |
20150015664 | IMAGING SYSTEM AND IMAGING OPTICAL SYSTEM - An optical system includes a central portion having a magnification per unit angle of view which increases from a center to an outside at an increase rate and a circumferential portion being outside the central portion and having a magnification per unit of view which increases from the central portion to an outside at an increase rate smaller than the increase rate of the central portion. | 01-15-2015 |
20150043019 | IMAGE OUTPUT SYSTEM AND METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM - An image output system includes an obtaining unit, a duplication unit, a generation unit, and an execution unit. The obtaining unit obtains image data. The duplication unit stores duplicate data of the image data in a memory. The generation unit generates a log image based on the duplicate data, and generates log data including the log image, the log data indicating a log of an image output process corresponding to the image data. The execution unit executes, in a case where the duplicate data has been stored, an image output process based on the image data before completion of generation of the log data. | 02-12-2015 |
