Abstract: The present invention provides a subtitle data editing method that simplifies the work of inputting subtitles to be displayed on contents such as moving images and facilitates quick and efficient editing work. By accepting a predetermined line feed operation twice consecutively in a state wherein a cursor is present in a subtitle input field in which the subtitle content is input, a subtitle input field is separated to be displayed on screen separations before and after the cursor. By accepting a predetermined line feed operation in a state where the cursor exists at the beginning of the second and subsequent lines, the line and the line directly above are separated and the subtitle input field is divided and displayed on screen, when the subtitle input field in which the subtitle content is input is a plurality of lines.

Abstract: A humanoid robot may include one or two eye resembling features in the form of image sensor(s) that capture images of at least a portion of an environment. The fields-of-view of the image sensor(s) will change as a pose (i.e., position, orientation, position and orientation) of the head, torso, or even entire humanoid robot changes. Virtual or augmented representations of the environment may be presented to a human pilot of the robot, where disorienting feeling due to latency in communications can be alleviated by reducing demand on communications channels.

Abstract: A control apparatus and method for noise cancellation in a physical area. The control apparatus receives a trigger input which includes information about a first physical area and further controls an image capturing device to capture at least one first image of the first physical area based on the received trigger input. The control apparatus further determines a number of occupants of a first set of occupants present in the first physical area and scene information corresponding to the first physical area based on the captured at least one first image. The control apparatus further controls a movement of a first plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in a physical three-dimensional (3D) space to create a virtual noise cancellation boundary around the first physical area based on the determined number of occupants of the first set of occupants and the scene information.

Abstract: When utilizing a flying vehicle to monitor an animal that is grazing, the stress of the animal targeted for monitoring is mitigated. An acquisition unit acquires position information indicating the position of an animal that is grazing. A determination unit determines the reactivity of the animal to the approach of a flying vehicle. A setting unit sets a distance that depends on the determined reactivity. An instruction unit instructs the flying vehicle to start flying toward a monitoring position corresponding to the position indicated by the acquired position information and the set distance, and to perform processing for monitoring the animal on the basis of the monitoring position.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of properly editing a moving image file including imaging information items recorded at different recording periods. The image processing apparatus executes an editing process on a moving image file in which a moving image including frames arranged in time-series and imaging information associated with the moving image have been recorded. The imaging information has a data structure in which long period imaging information recorded at a first period in the time series and short period imaging information recorded at a second period shorter than the first period in the time series are arranged. A system controller executes the editing process such that a frame having the long period imaging information becomes a first frame in the moving image file having been edited.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to automated rack imaging. According to an example, a system for imaging a face of a rack includes a camera and lighting array, a positioning system, a computer system and a wheeled platform. The array includes multiple cameras located in a first plane orthogonal to a second plane and each camera has a first field of view in a first axis of the second plane. Collectively, the first fields of view extend from one end of the face to another end of the face. The positioning system is operable to move the array from a starting point to an ending point via multiple intermediate points along an axis in a third plane parallel to the first plane. The computer system (i) causes the cameras to capture images at the starting, intermediate, and ending point; (ii) stitches the captured images together; and (iii) stores the resulting image.

Abstract: An electronic mirror system for a vehicle includes a rear imaging device, a left and right pair of side-rear imaging devices, a display device, an anomaly treatment device, memory, and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor causes a composite image in which a rear image and side-rear images are composited to be displayed, and detects an anomaly occurring at any one of the imaging devices. In a case in which an anomaly is detected, the processor generates a substitute image based on a captured image captured by another of the imaging devices, and causes the substitute image to be displayed. And, in a case in which the one of the imaging devices at which the anomaly is detected, is restored to the normal state by the anomaly treatment device, the processor causes the composite image to be displayed instead of the substitute image.

Abstract: A main stream contains successive content elements of video and/or audio information that encode video and/or audio information at a first data rate. A computation circuit (144) computes main fingerprints from the successive content elements. A reference stream is received having a second data rate lower than the first data rate. The reference stream defines a sequence of the reference fingerprints. A comparator unit (144) compares the main fingerprints with the reference fingerprints. The main stream is monitored for the presence of inserted content elements between original content elements, where the original content elements have main fingerprints that match successive reference fingerprints and the inserted content elements have main fingerprints that do not match reference fingerprints. Rendering of inserted content elements to be skipped. In an embodiment when more than one content element matches only one is rendered.
