摘要:
An endoscope that is free from a dead area and capable of preventing the physician from overlooking any nidus is an endoscope for taking the inside of digestive organs, and the endoscope is provided with an omnidirectional camera (32), a light (34), a forceps (36) and a rinse water injection port (38) at the tip (24). The omnidirectional camera (32) is a device for taking the inside of digestive organs, and is able to take 360-degree images of its surroundings. A probe-type endoscope (20) is provided with a receiver (26) composed of orthogonal coils, and the receiver (26) is used for estimating the position and attitude of the probe-type endoscope (20). An image taken by the omnidirectional camera (32) is presented on a display unit (28) of an image processing device (22) connected to the probe-type endoscope (20). In the image processing device, a video mosaicking process is performed on a plurality of images obtained by the omnidirectional camera (32) to generate a panoramic image of the inside of a digestive organ.

The present invention discloses a capsule endoscope image display controller (26) including: an image-to-image similarity calculating unit (36) that calculates, for each image included in an image sequence captured by a capsule endoscope which moves within the digestive organs, a similarity between the image and its temporally consecutive image; an amount-of-movement calculating unit (47) that calculates, for each image included in the image sequence, an amount of movement of a feature area included in the image; a video state classifying unit (41) that classifies, for each image included in the image sequence, a video state of the image into one of the following states, based on the video state, the similarity, and the amount of movement of the image: (a) “stationary state” indicating that the capsule endoscope is stationary, (b) “digestive organs deformation state” indicating that the digestive organs are deformed, and (c) “capsule moving state” indicating that the capsule endoscope is moving, based on the similarity and the amount of movement of the image; a rendering duration determining unit (42) that determines, for each image included in the image sequence, a rendering duration between the image and its temporally consecutive image; and a display controlling unit (44) that sequentially displays, on a screen, the images included in the image sequence with the determined rendering durations.

摘要:
The invention provide methods and apparatus for effectively identifying the occlusion of objects, such as persons, having a high degree of freedom. In an example embodiment, after initialization, an image is input, and an image region is extracted from image data. The distance is employed that is obtained when the shape of a two-dimensional histogram in the color space is transformed into the feature space. A graph is formed by using, the regions between the frames. A confidence factor is provided and image features are provided as weights to the edges that connect the nodes. Processing is performed, and the confidence factor is examined. A connection judged less possible to be a path is removed. When there is only one available connection for the occlusion point, this connection is selected.
摘要:
A method and an apparatus for using the trajectory of an object to access video contents, for example, to specify and display a specific video image scene. Such a video contents access method comprises the steps of: extracting objects from video contents; displaying movements of the objects as trajectories on a specific projection screen; specifying locations on the trajectories; and accessing a desired scene of the video contents. An apparatus is so designed that it performs the above method.
摘要:
A method and system for maneuvering a mobile robot are disclosed, which include a mobile robot having a plurality of sensors, including a sensor which detects the presence of an object and a sensor which detects image information related to the object. Utilizing data acquired by the plurality of sensors, elements of the object are determined. A hypothesis expressing the configuration of the object is then generated from the elements interpreted from the data. The hypothesis is generated by referencing a table in which interpretations of data acquired by the plurality of sensors are associated with possible configurations of objects in response to the generated hypothesis, the mobile robot is moved along a path which avoids the object.
