Abstract:
A photosensor includes first and second light receiving elements (12, 16, 18) which detect light, and a light source which is disposed behind the first and second light receiving elements and which emits light containing a predetermined color component. A first filter (102) is disposed in front of the first light receiving element and transmits light of the predetermined color component, and a second filter (104) is disposed in front of the second light receiving element and shuts off the light of the predetermined color component and transmits a color component other than the predetermined color component. A judging section judges whether or not a detection target is present in front of the first (102) and second filters (104) in accordance with outputs from the first and second light receiving elements (12, 16, 18).
Abstract:
In an encoding process, a CPU (9121) transforms an audio signal from the real-time domain to the frequency domain, and transforms the signal into spectra consisting of MDCT coefficients. The CPU (9121) separates the audio signal into several frequency bands, and performs bit shifting in each band such that the MDCT coefficients can be expressed with pre-configured numbers of bits. The CPU (9121) re-quantizes the MDCT coefficients at a precision differing for each band, and transmits the values acquired thereby and shift bit numbers as encoded data. Meanwhile, in a decoding process, a CPU (9121) receives encoded data and inverse re-quantizes and inverse bit shifts the data, thereby restoring the MDCT coefficients. Furthermore, the CPU (9121) transforms the data from frequency domain to the real-time domain by using the inverse MDCT, and restores and outputs the audio signal.
Abstract:
An image apparatus records images of a subject corresponding to a photo opportunity without intensifying complex operations after the imaging. When a SLOW button is depressed, a process is started in which frame image data that is obtained at an imaging frame rate is stored sequentially in a buffer memory (Step S110). The frame image data is read out from the buffer memory at a display frame rate that is set in advance (Step S111), and images are displayed on a display device based on this frame image data (Step S112). When a shutter key is depressed, the frame image data read out from the buffer memory (S111) is recorded to storage memory (Step S114).
Abstract:
A light-emitting element (OLED) is caused to emit light with preferred brightness and gradation level depending on display data. During a precharge period, a data driver (14) applies a precharge voltage (Vpre) to a capacitor (Cs) via a data line (Ld). After the application of the precharge voltage a voltage converter (143) reads, after a transient response period (Ttrs), a reference voltage Vref of the data line Ld to generate a compensation voltage (a-Vref). A voltage calculator (144) compensates, based on the compensation voltage (a-Vref ), an original gradation level voltage Vorg having a value in accordance with display data generated by a gradation level voltage generator (142). As a result, the voltage calculator (144) generates a compensated gradation level voltage Vpix corresponding to a variation amount of an element characteristic of a transistor Tr 13 for driving light emission the compensated gradation level voltage Vpix is applied to the data line Ld to set the brightness of the pixel (PlX).
Abstract:
In quickview display processing, a counter N is set to an initial value of 1 (step SlOl), and a counter L is set to 4 times the counter N (step S102). Then, from a storage memory, the Lth frame of image data in frame data recorded by high-speed consecutive photographing is extracted (step S 103), and an image based on this extracted image data is displayed by a display device (step S 104). Consequently, by iteratively executing the processing according to this flowchart, the fourth, eighth, twelfth, etc., frames of image data are read from the frame data, and as a result of the processing in step S 104 and S 105, images based on these read image data, being every fourth frame of the frame data, are displayed at a predetermined time interval by the display device.

Abstract:
When a user instructs photographing by operating an operating unit (302), an image captured by an image sensor (102) is stored as a photographed image in a memory (201). When a mode for performing color fading correction is set, the CPU (204) instructs an image processing device (203) to extract, from the photographed image, an area which is supposed to bring about color fading. The image processing device (203) generates a binary image by detecting edges of the area.
