20080282292 | RECEIVING APPARATUS AND METHOD - Partial data related to information data is received, image data corresponding to the received partial data is generated by sequentially processing the received partial data, and the generated image data is output to a display unit. Before output of the image data corresponding to the partial data to the display unit is completed, reception of the information data is started. Then, image data corresponding to the information data is generated by processing the received information data, and image data to be displayed on said display unit is switched to the image data corresponding to the information data from the image data corresponding to the partial data after the reception of the information data is started. | 11-13-2008 |
20120155769 | IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - An image processing device comprises a region dividing unit which divides a captured image obtained by a camera unit into a plurality of regions, and an image compressing unit which compresses each of region images obtained by the division by the region dividing unit while changing the compression rate according to the distance from a predetermined point in the captured image to each of the region images and the distance from the camera unit to a target included in each of the regions. For example, the image compressing unit compresses the region image having a larger angle from the optical axis at a larger compression rate, thereby achieving compression in which the amount of data in low-quality regions is greatly reduced and the quality of high-quality regions is maintained. | 06-21-2012 |

20140164413 | FEATURE VALUE EXTRACTION APPARATUS AND FEATURE VALUE EXTRACTION METHOD - A feature value extraction apparatus includes: an image input unit that receives an input of an image; a converted image generation unit that converts the input image into at least one converted image for extracting a feature value of the input image; a feature value generation pattern holding unit that stores a feature value generation pattern that includes a plurality of comparison pairs of unit positions for comparing unit values in a unit array in which units, each of which includes at least one pixel, are arranged; and a feature value extraction unit that compares the unit values corresponding to the comparison pairs through referring to the feature value generation pattern with respect to the converted image, and extracts the feature value of the converted image. | 06-12-2014 |
20140313415 | CAMERA DEVICE, SERVER DEVICE, IMAGE MONITORING SYSTEM, CONTROL METHOD OF IMAGE MONITORING SYSTEM, AND CONTROL PROGRAM OF IMAGE MONITORING SYSTEM - An image monitoring system that efficiently utilizes a network band and decrease the processing load of a server is provided. A second image decision processor analyzes an extracted image transmitted from a monitoring terminal, and evaluates the quality (reliability) of the extracted image. A reliability decision unit outputs an individual ID of the analyzed extracted image to a load estimation unit when the numerical value from the analysis output by the second decision processor becomes less than the preset threshold. The load estimation unit estimates the server processor load of a server and the network load. A resend request unit controls the resend request for an individual ID output from the negative load estimation unit corresponding to the server processor load and the network load. | 10-23-2014 |
20150016684 | OBJECT DETECTION DEVICE, OBJECT DETECTION METHOD, AND OBJECT DETECTION PROGRAM - An object detection device includes a raster scan execution unit that executes a raster scan on an input image using a scan window in order to detect an object within the input image which is input by an image input unit, a scan point acquisition unit that acquires scan points of the scan window which are positions on the input image during the execution of the raster scan, and a size-changing unit that changes a relative size of the input image with respect to the scan window. When the relative size is changed by the size-changing unit, an offset is given to the starting positions of the scan points after the change with respect to the starting positions of the scan points before the change. | 01-15-2015 |
