Abstract: An information display apparatus that includes a judgment unit that, in the even of receiving the input of the position coordinate through the operation unit while one page of the image data is being displayed on the display screen, judges which area is selected from areas in the page being displayed on the display screen on the basis of the received position coordinate; and a display controller that displays an image of a first area which is determined to be selected by the judgment unit with remaining the position when the area is indicated through the operation unit, hides an image of the area other than the first area, and display an image of next page of the page being displayed in an area where then image of the area other than the first area is hidden.

Abstract: Example embodiments described herein are directed to utilizing image matching technology to allow people to use their mobile device to setup scan workflows (or “Scan Flows”) in advance of a future scanning operation. Using an application on a mobile device, the user takes a photo of the first page of a document that he/she will scan at some later time and associates the image of the document with a simple workflow (e.g., where to store the document once the document has been scanned). Additional workflow actions may include automatic document sharing and notification, automatic document segmentation, and automatic document cropping.

Abstract: A document processor includes a unit which receives document information including plural document elements as a target document, a unit which detects each of the document elements from the received target document, a unit which generates an element image enlarged by a specified ratio, of each image of the detected document elements, and a display control unit which controls display so that an element image of the corresponding document element is displayed in a range occupied by the document element in the target document.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a reading unit, a color value calculation unit, a reading period measurement unit, a color value storage unit, a color value creation unit and a color value output unit. The reading unit reads a color of each of plural objects. The color value calculation unit calculates a color value of the color of each read object. The reading period measurement unit measures a time period during which the reading unit reads each object. The color value storage unit stores the color value calculated and time period information indicating the time period measured, for each object. The color value creation unit creates a new color value based on the color values of the plurality of objects and the time period information stored in the color value storage unit. The color value output unit outputs the new color value created.

Abstract: An information distribution system include a reporting unit that reports guide information to a user, the guide information showing information to be additionally stored in a storing unit, a receiving unit that receives identification information from the user, the identification information being associated with stored information selected by the user from the stored information shown by the guide information, and a transmitting unit that transmits suitable stored information to the user, the suitable stored information being selected from the stored information based on the identification information as to the stored information selected by the user.

Abstract: A minutes production device includes: a producing unit that produces minutes, based on conference information; a recommending unit that searches a database and recommends information, based on the conference information used by the producing unit to produce the minutes; and an editing unit that edits the minutes, based on the information recommended by the recommending unit.

Abstract: Presentations, tutorials and screencasts are difficult to watch on a small device such as a cell phone because the screen is too small to properly render content that typically contains text, like a presentation slide or a screenshot. The described system facilitates generating a user-controllable video movie from an existing media stream that 1) automatically identifies regions of interest from the original stream using visual, auditory and meta streams, 2) synchronizes these regions of interest with the original media stream, and 3) uses panning and scanning to zoom in and out or move the focus. The generated time-based media stream can be seamlessly interrupted by users, letting them temporarily focus on specific regions of interest. Meanwhile, the original media stream can continue playing or instead jump around the timeline as users jump between regions of interest.
