Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an information input device performing high-convenience processing according to input of information related to an external proximity object. SOLUTION: The information input device acquires position information and area information of the external proximity object in a detection signal processing part 13 and an image processing part 14 based on a detection signal of the external proximity object obtained by an input/output panel 11. In a control part 21, by use of the acquired position information and area information, display data are generated such that size of a display object designated by the external proximity object changes according to an area value of the external proximity object.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image processor capable of performing a labeling process more rapidly than in the past. SOLUTION: In a picked up image represented by binarized data Din, each pixel is sequentially scanned. During the sequential scan, additional information (position information and area information) of each connection area corresponding to each label information is updated at any time while allocating, at any time, while a register number (the label information) showing an identification number of each connection area inside the picked up image is allocated at any time in a pixel of interest according to values of pixel data of the notice pixel and peripheral pixels thereof. Thereby, the label information, the position information, and the area information about the whole picked up images can be respectively obtained by a single sequential scan.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a display apparatus capable of performing advanced operations by detecting a plurality of contact places on a display screen and continuously detecting the positions, sizes or the like of the contact places. SOLUTION: By using the display apparatus which performs display with a plurality of display elements arranged in a matrix shape as a display/light receiving display panel unit 120, wherein light receiving elements arranged near the respective plurality of display elements can acquire an image of an object that comes into contact with or approaches a display surface, a light receiving image generation unit 114 generates a light receiving image on the basis of a light receiving signal acquired by a light receiving signal receiver 113, and an image processing/operating unit 115 detects the shape and position of a contact part. A command determination unit 116 determines a command corresponding to the shape and position of the contact part detected by the image processing/operating unit 115, and performs prescribed processing in accordance with the command.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a display, which can precisely detect light having a predetermined wavelength from light incident from a screen. SOLUTION: A liquid crystal display 1 comprises: color filters 31 of a plurality of colors for transmitting light for displaying images on a screen 55a; a CF board 9 arranged in a different area from an area in which the color filters 31 of a plurality of colors are arranged and having an IR filter 33 for transmitting light incident from the screen 55a; and a main sensor 19 arranged in the rear side of the IR filter 33 for detecting light incident from the screen 55a and transmitted through the IR filter 33. The IR filter 33 is constituted of the layered same filter materials as filter materials respectively constituting the color filters 31 of at least two or more colors. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image-taking apparatus that enables an entire object to be illuminated from an image-taking device side even when the state of the object is not uniform, and a method thereof. SOLUTION: An object OBJ is partially illuminated with illumination light, and the image-taking device 12 takes an image thereof. A plurality of images taken while the irradiation position of the illumination light is sequentially changed (moved) are synthesized by an image synthesizing part 13 to obtain an image.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image display device capable of reliably detecting an object with a simple construction regardless of its used condition. SOLUTION: Non-visible light LIR is emitted from a display surface 10 of a display part 1. The non-visible light LIR reflected by the object 12 to be detected in contact with or close to the display surface 10 is received on the display surface 10. Detection of the object 12 to be detected is performed on the basis of the received non-visible light LIR. The object can be reliably detected without being affected by a used condition such as a display condition of the display part 1 and an ambient condition (bright or dark). Since it is not necessary to separately provide a component such as a touch panel, detection of the object can be achieved with the simple construction. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a display imaging apparatus for detecting an object regardless of use circumstances. SOLUTION: An image A(shadow image) is acquired by picking up the image of the shadow of a proximity object which makes a contact with or approaches an I/O display panel 20. Then, information relating to at least one of the position, shape, or size of the proximity object is detected based on the image A. Concretely, a moving average image MA is generated based on the image A, and a difference image D between the moving mean image MA and the original image A, an image E obtained by subtracting a threshold TH from each image data of the difference image D, or a binary image F of the difference image D are used for detection.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a display apparatus enabling advanced operation by detecting a plurality of contact parts on a display screen and continuously detecting the positions and sizes. SOLUTION: By using the display device which displays a plurality of display elements arranged in a matrix as a displaying/light-receiving display panel part 120 and which can obtain an image of an object whose light-receiving elements arranged near each of a plurality of display elements is in contact with or close to a display surface, a light-receiving image generation part 114 generates a light-receiving image based on a light-receiving signal obtained by a light-receiving signal receiver 113, and detection of shape and position of a contact part is performed by an image processing calculation part 115. An instruction determination part 116 determines an instruction corresponding to the shape and position of the detected contact part by the image processing calculation part 115, and a predetermined process is performed according to the instruction.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily remove the effect of external light or noise in simultaneous parallel execution of light emission and light receipt. SOLUTION: When display of image and light receipt are simultaneously or alternately performed on a display screen, receipt of light incident on the display surface is performed in addition to processing for making the display surface emit light to display the image. The light receipt is performed twice with emission for display and without emission, a difference between the two amounts of light received in a non-contact or non-adjacent state to the display surface is stored as an initial value (step S27). Thereafter, the difference between two amounts of light received is detected for detecting a contact or adjacent state to the display surface (step S16), and the stored initial value is deduced from the detected value (step S17) to detect the contact or adjacent state to the display surface.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable high-accuracy pulse width modulation depending on the output resolution, while securing a minimum pulse width. SOLUTION: The number of bits segmented from first digital data is determined, corresponding to the result of comparison between a data value of the first digital data composed of a plurality of bits and a prescribed threshold, a pulse width is modulated based on second digital data created by segmenting the number of bits from the first digital data, the segmented bit data are fed back to a front stage, and noise shaping is conducted by adding the fed bit data to digital data that are cyclically inputted, thus creating the first digital data.
