Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an excellent output image including a concerned image region by excluding an image region that exerts an adverse influence on the output image. SOLUTION: A concerned region detection unit 112 detects a concerned image region such as a moving object region and a human detection region. A high luminance region detection unit 113 detects a high luminance image region. A complicated texture region detection unit 114 detects an image region including complicated texture. A framing control unit 115 has mask region coordinate information by itself. The framing control unit 115 controls at least a pan/tilt/zoom motor 103 which performs mechanical PTZ control or an image segmenting unit 108 which performs electronic PTZ control, so as to remain the concerned image region within a picture frame range of the output image and to exclude a removal image region from the picture frame range of the output image on the basis of coordinate information indicative of the concerned image region and coordinate information indicative of the removal image region (high luminance image region, image region with complicated texture pattern, and mask region).

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an image signal on which revision of settings of a signal processing operation is correctly reflected when frames are summed to vary a frame rate. SOLUTION: A pre-process section 14 uses an image signal DVa generated by imaging an object to carry out signal processing operations. A frame summing processing section 15 sums frames of an image signal DVb obtained through the signal processing operation by the pre-process section 14 to generate an image signal DVc whose frame rate is varied. When the signal processing operation of the pre-process section 14 is revised, the signal processing operation is revised in the unit of a frame summing period at a frame summing processing section 15 based on a discrimination signal TW denoting the frame summing period.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cartridge case combination device and its method, by which the temporary assembling of a cartridge case can be performed at low costs and with high productivity. SOLUTION: The cartridge case combination device is provided with an inversion part 44 for transforming the inner part of a lower shell 12 upward by gravity, while dropping the lower shell 12 and a combination part 45 for combining the inverted lower shell 12 and an upper shell 11 and constituted so that a temporarily assembled cartridge case 10 is dropped by self-weight and is carried out to the next succeeding process. Consequently, driving systems required for the combination of the cartridge case can be reduced as much as possible, installation costs can be reduced, and productivity can be improved by reducing the generation frequency of troubles.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To synthesize an image without sense of incongruity even when a subject moves by generating an image by replacing a pixel value correction image with a high sensitive image with an area where a low sensitive image can not be represented in sufficient gradation to an area where the high sensitive image can be represented in sufficient gradation with the luminance level of the high sensitive image and the luminance level of the low sensitive image or a pixel value correction image as reference. SOLUTION: A coefficient calculation 13 generates a contrast correction coefficient (g) (i, j) in accordance with a signal level of a low frequency component (r) (i, j) being an area decision signal SS as image pickup results. The coefficient (g) (i, j) also corrects the pixel value (x) (i, j) of the image pickup results in a multiplication circuit 14, Thus, a pixel value is corrected by an equal gain in an area where the signal levels of the component (r) (i, j) are equal as the image pickup results, while the pixel value can be close in accordance with the setting of a level conversion function in a use area where the signal levels of the component (r) (i, j) are different.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To form a sample holding part into a comparatively simple constitution and to contrive reduction of the cost of the sample holding part, by a method wherein when a sample held by the sample holding part of a shaft member is put in contact with a molten solder, a force to act on the sample is detached. SOLUTION: A upward and downward displacement by a sample holding part 42 of a sample 55 is transferred to an elastic plate member 51 provided at a measuring part 50 via a shaft member 41 and a coupling member 45. Thereby, in the measuring part 50, detection of a force to generate the displacement of the member 51 by a transducer built in the measuring part 50 is conducted, and at the same time, a detection output signal SD to respond to the detected result is formed and the signal SD is led out between one pair of output terminals 53a and 53B as a solderability measuring output signal to the sample 55. As a result, the sample holding part is formed into a comparatively simple constitution and reduction of the cost of the sample holding part is contrived.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent deterioration of the image quality.SOLUTION: A tap selection section selects a pixel as a prediction tap, which is used for prediction operation to calculate a pixel value of a target pixel in a second image which is a converted first image, from the first image. A class classification section classifies the target pixel into any class in plural classes according to a predetermined rule. An operation section calculates a pixel value of the target pixel by performing a prediction operation using a tap coefficient of the target pixel class and a prediction tap of the target pixel. A dynamic range detection section detects a piece of dynamic range information which represents a local dynamic range of a position of the first image corresponding to the target pixel. A tap selection section updates the tap number which is the number of the pixels as the prediction taps according to the dynamic range information. The present art is applicable to, for example, the case when image conversion processing to give sharpness to images etc.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image processor significantly improved in contrast and sharpness of the whole image in comparison with conventional ones. SOLUTION: Portions other than the edges are amplified while conserving the edges whose pixel values change sharply out of input image data S1. The portions other than the edges can thereby be displayed in an emphasized manner to significantly improve the contrast and sharpness of the whole image in comparison with the conventional ones.
