Abstract:
An image processing system comprises a photocopier and an information processor. The photocopier scans and images each page of a document, creates a thumbnail image from each scanned image, and sends the thumbnail images to the information processor. Using the information processor, a user then specifies an image output sequence by rearranging the thumbnail images with a pointing device. The photocopier receives this output sequence information from the information processor, and using the printer section of the photocopier prints the scanned images according to the specified output sequence contained in the received sequence information.
Abstract:
A docking assembly serves as an interface between (1) a portable digital media storage and playback (PDMSP) device, and (2) a media reproduction system. A remote controller preferably controls the docking assembly and PDMSP device, which may receive electric charge from the assembly. Media reproduction systems may reproduce audio and video signals in user-perceptible form. Telephonic relay capability is further provided between a telephonic PDMSP playback device and a telephonic remote controller by way of a telephone rebroadcast receiver associated with the docking assembly. Methods for downloading digital media files, and for creating or modifying playlists with a remotely controllable docking assembly adapted to provide a television-compatible video output signal, are further provided.
Abstract:
A control system for digital camera makes it possible to control a digital camera from a personal computer and to operate the digital camera simultaneously from both of the digital camera side and the personal computer side by means of performing a communication between the digital camera on which a WWW server function is equipped and the personal computer having a WWW browser function.
Abstract:
A system, method, and device for remotely controlling the camera functions of a mobile camera phone are disclosed. The mobile camera phone and another device are communicable with one another using the Bluetooth™ protocol. Each includes a Bluetooth module that establishes a wireless connection with one another such that data and instructions can be exchanged. The other device receives and displays data representative of the mobile camera phone's viewfinder. A camera application is coupled with the Bluetooth module for establishing a master/slave relationship with a corresponding camera application in the mobile camera phone. The other device sends camera control commands to the mobile camera phone wherein the camera control commands can manipulate camera settings, take a picture, and dispose of the resultant picture. The other device further includes a user interface coupled with the display that provides a means of inputting data to manipulate the camera application.

Abstract:
An image input section pre-inputs an image. A temporary storage section temporarily stores the image input by the image input section. An attribute control section controls at least attribute information of the input information temporarily stored in the temporary storage section. A selection section permits a user at the origin of image request to select a desired one of already stored images stored in the temporary storage section in accordance with the attribute information controlled by the attribute control section. An image transfer section reads out the desired image selected by the selection section from the temporary storage section at the time of the request by origin of the image request and transfers the desired image to the origin of the image request via a network.
Abstract:
A remote control apparatus and method are provided for controlling an image forming device using wireless data communication by establishing a wireless connection with the image forming device. A wireless interface receives image data stored in a storage medium of an image forming device and transmits a signal requesting an activity for an image corresponding to the received image data, using wireless data communication. A display unit displays an image using the received image data, and a user input unit receives an activity to be performed. By displaying images stored in the image forming device, or an external storage medium, using the wireless remote control apparatus and allowing a user to select an image among the displayed images and request the image forming device to perform an activity, such as a printing or editing activity, a specific activity can be requested from the image forming device without spatial limitation.
Abstract:
In a case where a display screen of a transmission originator, including image data such as photographs, is displayed remotely on a device of a transmission destination, compressed image data of the image portion such as photographs on the display screen which is stored in a storage unit of the transmission originator is transmitted to the transmission destination device so that the image of the photograph portion can be displayed remotely on the screen of the transmission destination device with high image quality.
Abstract:
A photographic processing system is disclosed in which subject and other data is stored in a database and such data is automatically linked to photographs taken using either a film or digital camera.
