Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a presentation device for performing highly convenient zoom operation. SOLUTION: A presentation device 100 includes an image capture part for capturing a subject and generating a raw image, a detection part adapted to analyze whether the raw image contains a prescribed pointing member and to detect the location and direction on the subject to which the pointing member points if the raw image contains the pointing member, an extraction part adapted to extract from the raw image an enlargement target area of prescribed size that lies in an area extraction direction determined according to the detected direction from the detected location, an enlarged image generation part adapted to enlarge the extracted enlargement target area to generate an enlarged image, and an output part for outputting the enlarged image.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simply enable an imaging device that is not in use and holds a camera head above a base mount by arms. SOLUTION: In the imaging device 100, a second arm 132 is pivoted rotatably by an arm rotary pivoting mechanism 134 at an upper end of a first arm 131 erected from the base mount 110, and a head side arm 160 of a camera head 150 is pivoted rotatably by a head rotary pivoting mechanism 180 with respect to the second arm 132. When the device is not in use and housed, the second arm 132 overlaps the first arm 131 together with the head side arm 160 of the camera head 150. When imaging a small-size object at a low position using the housed camera, it is only required to rotate the head side arm 160 of the camera head 150. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a document presentation device which expands an imaging range by a simple operation without using a pedestal, is excellent in usability, and captures only images of documents by preventing materials other than the documents from being captured even if the imaging range is expanded. SOLUTION: The document presentation device sets a first horizontal portion 13b at a horizontal position and a second horizontal portion 13c at a horizontally advanced position. A distance between an apparatus installation surface 20 and an imaging lens set at the widest angle can be set longer by the distance H between a first supporting shaft 16 and a second supporting shaft 17, thereby expanding the imaging range 22. Since when the imaging range of a camera head 14 is expanded, the position of the camera head 14 simultaneously moves forward by the distance H between the first supporting shaft 16 and the second supporting shaft 17, the front face of the pedestal 11 can be prevented from being captured.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image device 10 which has a simple comparison circuit and reduces the delay of an image signal. SOLUTION: The image device 10 comprises: a defect information memory means 22 which stores defective pixel data in advance; a signal converting means 24 which converts the pixel value of an image signal output from an imaging means 12 into the pixel value excluding a defective value; a defective pixel setting unit 20; an image signal memory unit 40 which stores the defective value for each frame in time series and in the order of address; and a second comparing means 42. A first comparing means 30 obtains defective pixel data from the defective information memory means 22 for each frame in a plurality of times for comparison with the image signal. When all defective pixel data are obtained and compared, comparison of the image signal data with the defective pixel data is stopped and a comparing is carried out by a second comparing means 42.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately establish a mask area for a masking target in a camera system with a masking function. SOLUTION: A camera system includes a camera, a shooting field shifting unit, a shift amount acquiring unit that acquires the shift amount of a shooting field, and a masking processor that masks a prescribed target within a captured image flame on the captured image. The masking processor includes first and second position computing units, and mask area establishing unit. The first and the second position computing units compute, on the basis of the shift amount in first and second time during exposure time, first and second relative positions of the prescribed target relative to the shooting field in the first and the second time. The mask area establishing unit establishes a mask area to mask the prescribed target on the captured image, on the basis of the first and the second relative positions. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify device settings based on commands while reducing the number of physical operation switches. SOLUTION: In a command setting mode where a composite image of a menu image with a source image as a background is displayed on a monitor 114, a menu switch 112M functions to set a selected command icon. An up switch 112U and other circumferentially positioned switches surrounding the menu switch 112M function to select one of command icons included in the menu image. In a mode other than the command setting mode, the circumferentially positioned switches function as physical operation switches to change over an on-off condition of a lighting unit and to select an image input source.
