    摘要: An apparatus including: a forming unit configured to form a measurement image on a sheet; a fixing unit configured to fix the measurement image; a measurement unit provided downstream of the fixing unit in a sheet conveyance direction and configured to measure a color of the fixed measurement image; a detector configured to detect whether a cooling device having a cooling function valid is connected between the fixing unit and the measurement unit; and a controller configured to determine, in a case in which the color of the measurement image is measured, a time to be taken after the sheet has passed through the fixing unit until the measurement unit starts measuring the color of the measurement image based on a result of the detector, and to control sheet conveyance based on the determined time.

    摘要: A method of color mapping color values of an oligochromatic pattern comprising the following steps: determining an image-gamut, in a N-dimensional device independent color system (ND-DICS), of said oligochromatic pattern; wherein said image-gamut comprises said color values of said oligochromatic pattern; and determining a skeleton (500) of said image-gamut; and performing an adaption on said skeleton (500) in said ND-DICS by a set of N-dimensional-transforming steps (30) and determining for points of said skeleton (500), a path in said ND-DICS that corresponds to said adaption; and color mapping said color values, of said oligochromatic pattern, based on said determined paths (35) of said points of said skeleton (500).

    摘要: The present invention is directed to obtaining an object having an anisotropic reflection characteristic without using a lenticular lens. A print product including a print medium on which a repetitive structure of projected portions and recessed portions is formed out of image forming materials including a color material includes a first layer formed on surfaces of the projected portions out of a first color material among the image forming materials, and a second layer formed on the recessed portions out of a second color material different from the first color material, wherein the projected portions have a height to occlude part of the second layer when observed at an angle different from an angle formed by a normal to a surface of the print medium.

    摘要: A method is performed at a system that comprises one or more video cameras and a remote server system. The method includes obtaining, via a video camera of the one or more video cameras, a continuous stream of video data for a scene. The video data stream comprises color video data in accordance with a determination that the scene has illumination above an illumination threshold and comprises infrared (IR) video data in accordance with a determination that the scene does not have illumination above the illumination threshold. The method includes colorizing the IR video data based on a subset of the color video data. The method further includes presenting the colorized video data to a user in real time.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes an image formation unit configured to form an image on a sheet at a formation position; a circulatory conveyance path for conveying the sheet with the image formed at the formation position on a first side thereof to the formation position again; a reading unit configured to read the first side of the sheet conveyed through the circulatory conveyance path and output image information; and a conveyance control unit configured to convey the sheet in one conveyance mode out of a plurality of conveyance modes when the reading unit reads the first side of the sheet. A range, in a conveyance direction, of the sheet that can be read by the reading unit while a conveyance speed of the sheet is constant is different for each of the plurality of conveyance modes.

    摘要: A server may receive remaining amount information related to a remaining amount of color material in a first color material cartridge from a printer on which the first color material cartridge is mounted, and send specific information to an external device in a case where the remaining amount of the color material in the first color material cartridge indicated by the remaining amount information is equal to or less than a first remaining amount threshold. The specific information is for changing a state of the printer from a state in which the printing process by using a second color material cartridge to be mounted is restricted to a state in which the printing process by using the second color material cartridge is permitted.
