Abstract:
This invention provides a technique of preventing determination of image alteration when digital image data has undergone, e.g., rotation without any substantial change in contents. To do this, an area separation processing unit separates image data into areas. For each of the separated areas, an area feature value calculator calculates an area feature value independent of the coordinate information of the image. An area order sorter sorts the separated areas in accordance with the calculated area feature values. A validation data generation processing unit generates validation data based on the sort result.
Abstract:
In verification of image data of a captured image as to whether it is original one, the verification is possible even for image data subjected to a peripheral illumination correction or an exposure correction. An order information calculation unit selects a pixel set including two or more pixels based on pixel values and information on an image space of image data of a captured image, and calculates an order of magnitude between pixels in the selected pixel set. A verification data producing unit generates verification data used in verification of whether the image data has not been tampered with, based on the calculated order of magnitude. An image output unit outputs the image data and the verification data.
Abstract:
The invention enables a verifier to easily confirm that the image data was captured in the multiple exposure mode, and also to easily confirm which area in the image captured in the multiple exposure mode was greatly affected by multiple exposure. An image generating unit generates exposure image data pieces by exposing an image sensor a plurality of times. An image composition unit combines exposure image data pieces to generate a single piece of composite image data. A reference image generating unit generates reference image data composed of data pieces for distinguishing pixel positions at which the exposure amount exceeds a threshold from the other pixel positions. A verification data generating unit generates verification data for determining whether alteration has been made from the composite image data and the reference image data to output a single file.

Abstract:
An information processing system includes an information processing apparatus and a display apparatus including an imaging unit. The display apparatus superimposes an image of a first processing apparatus not having a predetermined function, captured by the imaging unit, and an image of a second processing apparatus having the predetermined function to display the superimposed image, and sends an image captured by the imaging unit to the information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus performs processing for providing the predetermined function, when detecting, from the captured image received from the display apparatus, that a user of the first processing apparatus has performed an operation for using the predetermined function.

Abstract:
A method of controlling a plurality of electrical devices which control an operation of an internal combustion engine wherein an operation period of time required for each of the electrical devices is computed by computing means in response to operating conditions of the engine, the computed required operation period of time is counted by time-counting means, and each of the electrical devices is caused to operate during the counting. At each start of the time-counting from the computing means, a different one of the electrical devices is selected and the operation thereof is started, an interrupt signal is generated when the time-counting means has counted up, and the operation of the selected different one of the electrical devices is deenergized in response to the generation of the interrupt signal. Preferably, the time-counting means comprises a signal time counter.
