  • Patent number: 11122144
    Abstract: An information processing system includes a client apparatus and a service providing system. The client apparatus includes first circuitry to transmit, to the service providing system, a package acquisition request for obtaining a package including at least one application program. The service providing system includes second circuitry. The second circuitry receives the package acquisition request, and obtains the package. The second circuitry receives, from the client apparatus, an email address and a tenant setup request, and generates a usage registration screen. The second circuitry transmits an email addressed to the email address, the email including a network, and receives an access to the usage registration screen from an information processing apparatus. The second circuitry sets up a tenant in response to acquisition of package identification information, and registers the at least one application program included in the package identified by the package identification information with the tenant.

  • Patent number: 10740200
    Abstract: A redundancy configuration system performs switching between a first information processing system and a second information processing system for continuously providing information processing. The redundancy configuration system includes circuitry. The circuitry monitors information processing performed by the first information processing system. Based on a monitoring result obtained by the monitoring, the circuitry requests a management system, which has assigned address information to the first information processing system, to reassign the address information to the second information processing system. The circuitry controls the second information processing system to start information processing in response to receiving a notification from the management system that the address information has been reassigned to the second information processing system.

  • Patent number: 5784098
    Abstract: N lines of line-shaped light are projected onto the object by means of a measuring light projecting lens. The light carrying the image of the object is passed through the eyepiece lens 17 in an endoscope 6 and the auxiliary lens 30 in a measuring head 11 and split into two beamlets by a beam splitter 31, with one beamlet being focused at a position coinciding with the entrance end faces of measuring light's position detecting fibers 33(l) to 33(m). The line-shaped light images of the object thus formed in positions coinciding with the entrance end faces of measuring light's position detecting fibers 33(l) to 33(m) are scanned linearly by those linearly aligned fibers as they are oscillated and driven by a fiber scanner 36. The scanned line-shaped light images are then subjected to the necessary signal processing in a signal processor circuit 35 such as to measure the three-dimensional configuration of the object.

  • Patent number: 5032913
    Abstract: An object being frame-sequentially illuminated by beams of illumination light in different wavelength ranges is imaged by an imaging element of an electronic endoscope. A time-serial image signal is subjected to signal processing to display a color picture on a monitor screen. A relative movement between the object and the imaging element is detected by a movement detecting circuit to reduce color smear produced by the relative movement in a motion picture of the object displayed on the monitor screen.

  • Patent number: 4901143
    Abstract: There is provided a frozen picture memorizing memory holding as a frozen picture image a picture image signal imaged by an electronic endoscope. By the operation of a frozen picture directing switch, whether the frozen picture is adapted to the memorizing condition or not is judged through a picture image movement detecting circuit. In case it is judged to be adapted to the memorizing condition, the picture image signal is memorized actually as a frozen picture image to obtain a clear frozen picture having little color smear and fogging.
