Abstract:
A management server obtains rating information indicating a second user's rating of a dish or restaurant, generates a first evaluation value of the first user's sense of taste based on a measurement test regarding the sense of taste, and generates a second evaluation value of the second user's sense of taste based on a measurement test regarding the sense of taste. One search filter for filtering dishes or restaurants based on rating results of the dishes or the restaurants rated by a second user who has a sense-of-taste characteristic similar to that of the first user is provided on a dish search screen. When the first user uses the search filter to filter dishes or restaurants, and when a first difference between the first and second evaluation values is in a first predetermined range, the second user's rating results are used to filter the dishes or the restaurant.
Abstract:
In a photographing method in which a terminal device performs photographing, a clock of the terminal device is synchronized with a clock of a server that is a reference, photographing clock time information indicating a photographing clock time based on the clock is acquired through a network, and the photographing is performed at the photographing clock time indicated by the photographing clock time information based on the clock of the terminal device already synchronized with the clock.
Abstract:
An image photographing method for sharing a shared image, which is a plurality of images obtained by photographing an identical subject 103 with a plurality of cameras or an image generated from the plurality of images, between a plurality of users of the plurality of cameras, the image photographing method including: judging whether a target camera that is one of the plurality of cameras photographs subject 103 (S401); and allowing a user of the target camera to browse the shared image according to a period in which the target camera photographs subject 103 (S403) when the judgement that the target camera photographs subject 103 is made (Yes in S402).
Abstract:
In a method, M (M is a natural number smaller than N) cameras capturing images to be displayed are selected from N (N is a natural number equal to or larger than 2) cameras capturing images of a same scene. The method includes obtaining positions and image capture angles of the N cameras and selecting M cameras from the N cameras on the basis of the obtained positions and image capture angles of the N cameras.
Abstract:
A method for providing information includes: arranging, on the basis of taste information regarding a user and the menu information regarding a second restaurant indicated by a store identifier, first menu items included in the menu information in order according to the taste information; and causing the first menu items arranged in the order according to the taste information to be displayed in a first display area of a display screen of a terminal apparatus, and causing second menu items specified by the second restaurant to be displayed in a second display area of the display screen.
Abstract:
A method includes: acquiring, from a first communication terminal of a first user via a network, i) a request for an advertisement corresponding to a store and ii) a device identifier (ID) specifying a beacon signal transmitter disposed in the store, the beacon signal being received from the beacon signal transmitter; determining, based on the device ID, one branch store; generating, based on limited product information, the request for the advertisement, and branch store information, privileged advertisement information; and outputting the privileged advertisement information to the first communication terminal.
Abstract:
A management server obtains first data indicating an input value in a measurement test regarding a user's sense of taste, obtains rating information indicating the user's rating of a dish or a restaurant, generates an evaluation value of the user's sense of taste based on the first data. One search filter for filtering dishes or restaurants by using rating results of dishes or restaurants rated by sense-of-taste top scorers is provided on a dish search screen. When the evaluation value of the user's sense of taste satisfies a certain condition for the sense-of-taste top scorers, the rating information indicating the user's rating of the dish or the restaurant is included in the rating results of the dishes or restaurants rated by the sense-of-taste top scorers.
Abstract:
A method includes: acquiring chewing/swallowing information from a sensing device installed on a user, wherein the chewing/swallowing information is related to chewing of the user when the user eats a first printed food; determining based on the chewing/swallowing information, a number of chews made by the user, and determining based on a first print pattern and the number of chews, a second print pattern for a second printed food to be created by a food printer; and transmitting print control information to the food printer via a network, wherein the print control information is used for causing the food printer to create the second printed food using the determined second print pattern.
Abstract:
A distance measurement apparatus comprises a light emitter that emits light toward a scene, a light receiver that includes at least one light-receiving element and detects reflected light from the scene produced by the emission of light with the at least one light-receiving element, and a signal processing circuit that generates and outputs, for each frame, output data including measurement data indicating the positions or distances of a plurality of points in the scene on the basis of a signal outputted by the light receiver. The output data includes reference time data indicating a reference time determined for each frame and time difference data determined for each point, the time difference data indicating the difference from the reference time.
Abstract:
A distance measurement apparatus comprises a light emitter that emits a plurality of light beams toward a scene in different directions and at different timings, a light receiver that includes an array of a plurality of light-receiving elements and detects reflected light from the scene produced by the emission of each light beam with the plurality of light-receiving elements, and a signal processing circuit that generates and outputs output data including measurement data indicating the positions or distances of a plurality of points in the scene on the basis of a signal outputted by the light receiver. The output data includes the data of a plurality of blocks, and individual time data is attached to each of the plurality of blocks.
