Abstract:
A facsimile apparatus includes a data acquisition section, a facsimile transmission candidate image storage section, a destination receiving section, a facsimile communication section, a print setting information management section, and a facsimile transmission image generating section. The facsimile communication section is configured to transmit and receive, to and from a destination facsimile apparatus, information necessary for facsimile communication including a facsimile transmission candidate image and print setting information. The print setting information management section is configured to store the print setting information received from the destination by the facsimile communication section. The facsimile transmission image generating section is configured to manipulate the facsimile transmission candidate image to meet the printing condition indicated by the print setting information on the destination stored in the print setting information management section, thus generating a facsimile transmission image subject to a facsimile transmission to the destination.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes a scanning unit, a gloss detecting unit, and a glossy information processing unit. The scanning unit includes a light source and is configured to scan a document to be scanned at a first illumination position not resulting in halation caused by light of the light source output to the document, and scan the document at a second illumination position resulting in halation caused by the light output to the document. The gloss detecting unit is configured to detect a glossy portion of the document based on images scanned at the first illumination position and the second illumination position. The glossy information processing unit is configured to perform a predetermined process by using information represented by the detected glossy portion.
Abstract:
In a data communication apparatus which communicates with another data communication apparatus via a network, and a method of controlling the same, an address book in which a plurality of addresses used to send data are registered is published to other data communication apparatus via the network, and in a case that a loopback address is included in the plurality of addresses registered in that address book, the other data communication apparatus is restricted from accessing the address book including the loopback address.
Abstract:
A data transmission device includes: a communication portion that performs a transmission job which transmits data; an input portion that receives, at the time of performance of the transmission job, an input of a symbol sequence obtained by adding command information to a transmission destination address; and a processing portion that identifies a portion indicating the transmission destination address of and a portion indicating the command information of the symbol sequence input at the time of performance of the transmission job, that changes a setting value on the transmission job according to the command information and that makes the communication portion transmit data to a transmission destination corresponding to the transmission destination address.
Abstract:
An imaging apparatus includes: an image sensor configured to capture an image of a subject; an identification information storage unit configured to store a particular subject and a terminal device corresponding to the particular subject; a face detection unit and a face recognition unit configured to detect the particular subject stored in the identification information storage unit in the image captured by the image sensor; and a microcomputer configured to send the image to the terminal device. When the face detection unit and the face recognition unit detect the particular subject, the microcomputer sends the image to the terminal device which is stored in the identification information storage unit and corresponds to the particular subject.
Abstract:
In an image information storage device, a registration information storage unit stores registration information while associating it with first image data stored in an image data storage unit, while storing registration information for area information representing one of areas set in a drawing area of first image data stored in the image data storage unit. When an input specifying an area represented by area information is made while an image represented by first image data stored in the image data storage unit is displayed on a display screen, a search unit searches for second image data associated with registration information that has been associated with the area information in the registration information storage unit. An output control unit controls output of image/information to the display screen while outputting an image represented by the second image data search by the search unit to the display screen.
Abstract:
A Method of batch processing a group of hardcopy documents scans a stack of documents. Each document in the stack has a cover sheet is placed thereon. The method performs optical character recognition on each of the cover sheets in the stack. The method performs an operation on each of the documents in the stack in accordance with instructions on the cover sheet on each document. Examples of operations that may be performed include printing the document, sending the document by fax to a recipient, sending an image file of the document by email to a recipient, and the like.
Abstract:
A server for providing content, including a registration unit that stores first destination information representing a first destination in a memory, if the registration unit receives a command for registration accompanied by the first destination information, a content providing unit that provides content to a client device corresponding to the first destination stored in the memory, and a switched content providing unit that operates to switch offering of content by the content providing unit from the first destination to a second destination for a predetermined time period if the switched content providing unit receives a command for switching accompanied by second destination information representing the second destination, to provide content to a client device corresponding to the second destination, and to switch offering of content from the client device corresponding to the second destination information if the predetermined time period has elapsed back to the first destination.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a camera based method for text input and detection of a keyword or of a text-part within page or a screen comprising the steps of: directing a camera module on the printed page and capturing an image thereof; digital image filtering of the captured image; detection of word blocks contained in the image, each word block containing most likely a recognizable word; performing OCR within each word block; determination of A-blocks among the word blocks according to a keyword probability determination rule, wherein each of the A-blocks contains most likely the keyword; assignment of an attribute to each A-block; indication of the A-blocks in the display by a frame or the like for a further selection of the keyword; further selection of the A-block containing the keyword based on the displayed attribute of the keyword; forwarding the text content as text input to an application.
Abstract:
A server includes a communications adapter; a controller and a datastore. The controller receives a first user input via a user interface to associate at least one image attribute with a contact. Thereby, responsive to receiving an image from an electronic apparatus, the controller automatically processes the image to identify at least one feature of the image that corresponds to the image attribute, and associates the image with the contact based on the image attribute; and communicates the image to the contact via the communications adapter. The datastore is suitable for storing digital information, and is communicatively coupled to the controller.
