20080250096 | DATA MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD OF DATA MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE - A service providing unit adapted to provide a first service which transmits image data to the external apparatus under the control of the external apparatus on the network; a service retrieval unit adapted to retrieve the external apparatus, on the network, capable of providing a second service which processes the image data transmitted from the data management apparatus under the control of the data management apparatus; a service controlling unit adapted to control the external apparatus on the network such that the external apparatus provides the second service; and a switching unit adapted to switch between a first state that deactivates the service controlling unit and a second state that activates the service controlling unit based on a retrieval result by the service retrieving unit. | 10-09-2008 |
20090153692 | IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND PROGRAM - An image capturing apparatus having a plurality of communication modes comprises an image capturing unit adapted to capture an object image and obtain image data, and a control unit adapted to control the image capturing apparatus, wherein the plurality of communication modes include a host mode in which the image capturing apparatus is able to communicate with a plurality of external devices and a client mode in which the image capturing apparatus is disable to simultaneously communicate with the plurality of external devices, and wherein the control unit is able to automatically switch the image capturing apparatus to the host mode after an image capturing instruction is applied to the image capturing unit. | 06-18-2009 |
20090304238 | IMAGING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM THEREOF - An imaging apparatus is provided including an imaging unit configured to obtain image data, a display unit, and a communication unit configured to communicate with a plurality of external apparatuses. The imaging apparatus further includes a storing unit configured to store person identification information including at least face image data while associating the person recognition information with information relating to the external apparatuses, a collation unit configured to collate a target in the image data with the person identification information, a detection unit configured to detect an external apparatus that is communicating with the imaging apparatus, and a display control unit configured to display a plurality of pieces of face image data on the display unit each as a candidate of a transmission destination of the image data in an order based on a result of collation by the collation unit and a result of detection by the detection unit. | 12-10-2009 |
20110254965 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - An electronic system comprising an image pickup unit | 10-20-2011 |
20120099007 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - An image processing apparatus obtains a black image captured in the light-shielded state, and applies a cyclic type filter to each line in a direction parallel to the streak in the black image, reducing random noise in the first direction. The image processing apparatus deletes, from a black image obtained by applying the cyclic type filter, lines in the second direction by the group delay of the cyclic type filter. Further, the image processing apparatus generates an image having a line count corresponding to the group delay by using a final line in the second direction in the image from which lines corresponding to the group delay have been deleted. The image processing apparatus adds the generated image to the image from which lines corresponding to the group delay have been deleted, and outputs the resultant image. | 04-26-2012 |
20120194700 | IMAGING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM THEREOF - An imaging apparatus is provided including an imaging unit configured to obtain image data, a display unit, and a communication unit configured to communicate with a plurality of external apparatuses. The imaging apparatus further includes a storing unit configured to store person identification information including at least face image data while associating the person recognition information with information relating to the external apparatuses, a collation unit configured to collate a target in the image data with the person identification information, a detection unit configured to detect an external apparatus that is communicating with the imaging apparatus, and a display control unit configured to display a plurality of pieces of face image data on the display unit each as a candidate of a transmission destination of the image data in an order based on a result of collation by the collation unit and a result of detection by the detection unit. | 08-02-2012 |
20120306738 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS CAPABLE OF DISPLAYING OPERATION ITEM, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image processing apparatus which is capable of preventing the display of an operation item, such as an icon, from hindering user's viewing an image which the user desires to view. A distance and position-detecting section and a system controller detect a distance between a screen and an operation element. The system controller displays at least one operation candidate item on the screen when the detected distance becomes not larger than a first threshold distance. Further, when the detected distance becomes not larger than the first predetermined threshold distance, the system controller changes a display form of the operation candidate item depending on the detected distance and displays the operation candidate item as an operable item. | 12-06-2012 |
20130194463 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A black image captured in a light-shielded state is obtained, and the streak intensity is determined for each pixel of the black image from the absolute value of an AC component in a region containing the pixel. An extraction image which extracts streak-like fixed pattern noise in a captured image is generated using a black image obtained by applying, to the obtained black image, the first filter for reducing random noise in the first direction. | 08-01-2013 |
