  • Publication number: 20240104956
    Abstract: An object is to provide an image accumulation apparatus, a method, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium capable of extracting a characteristic video based on an individual emotion. An image accumulation apparatus according to the present disclosure includes an image acquisition unit, an expression classification unit, and an image accumulation unit. The image acquisition unit acquires image data. The expression classification unit classifies face image data included in the image data into a predetermined emotion. The image acquisition unit accumulates the image data associated with emotion identifiers for identifying the classified emotions so that the image data is distributable to a terminal.

  • Publication number: 20240105072
    Abstract: Provided is an analysis apparatus or the like capable of appropriately determining emotions of a learner or an examinee in online learning or an online examination. An analysis apparatus includes: an emotion data acquisition unit that acquires emotion data regarding learning of each learner, the emotion data being obtained by performing emotion analysis on face image data of a plurality of learners in online learning; and an analysis data generation unit that aggregates emotion data regarding the plurality of learners, compares the emotion data of the plurality of learners, and generates analysis data in which the emotion data of one or more learners is identified.

  • Patent number: 6168047
    Abstract: In a vending machine having an article passage which is defined by a pair of side plates (3b) and extends in a vertical direction, a spacing member having a first and a second spacer (10, 20) is movably attached to one of the side plates to restrict an effective width of a lower portion of the article passage in a horizontal direction. Cooperated with the spacing member, an article discharge device having a delivery piece (6) discharges a lowermost one of the articles from the lower portion of the article passage. An automatically adjusting arrangement is coupled to the spacing member and makes the spacing member be automatically displaced In accordance with article sizes (R1, R2, R3) of the articles (A, B, C) to adjust the effective width.
