Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes a camera to capture a camera image of a target disposed on an examination table; an X-ray source to generate and radiate X-rays; a memory to store imaging protocols; a display; and a controller. The controller is configured to receive information regarding a selection of an imaging protocol, identify a position of an imaging region of the target based on the camera image, the imaging region corresponding to the selection of the imaging protocol and the camera image being acquired with the examination table at a first distance from the X-ray source, control the display to display the camera image of the target and an indicator indicating the imaging region on the camera image based on the identified position, and control the X-ray source to radiate the X-rays toward the target disposed on the examination table at a second distance from the X-ray source.

Abstract: A method for processing fingerprint information may include obtaining an input image corresponding to at least a region of a user fingerprint, searching a memory storing at least one registered image for a reference registered image that matches the input image at least partially, determining a unique region of the input image in which the input image does not overlap with the reference registered image when the input image is aligned with the reference registered image, and, in response to a score of the unique region of the input image being greater than or equal to a predetermined reference score, classifying the input image as belonging to a same group as the reference registered image and storing the input image in the memory.

Abstract: An X-ray imaging apparatus uses a camera image to set various types of parameters related to X-ray imaging including an X-ray irradiation region and automatically controls X-ray imaging. An X-ray imaging apparatus includes an imaging device that captures a camera image, an X-ray source on which a collimator adjusting an X-ray irradiation region is mounted, a storage unit that maps and stores an X-ray imaging region for each of a plurality of X-ray imaging protocols, an input unit that receives a selection of one among the X-ray imaging protocols from the plurality of X-ray imaging protocols, and a controller that extracts an X-ray imaging region mapped to the selected X-ray imaging protocol from the camera image and controls the collimator such that the X-ray irradiation region corresponds to the extracted X-ray imaging region.

Abstract: According to one or more exemplary embodiments, a medical imaging apparatus includes a first control unit. The first control unit controls capturing of an image of an object based on a first software component when the first software component is in an active state, periodically monitors a state of the first software component included in a software application, and sets any one of at least one second software component, which is the same as the first software component, to be in an active state when the first software component is in a failure state so as to continue to capture images of the object.

Abstract: A method for processing fingerprint information includes dividing an input image that corresponds to at least a portion of a user fingerprint into a plurality of first regions; dividing a registered image that had previously been stored into a plurality of second regions; selecting a first matching region from among the plurality of first regions, and selecting a second matching region from among the plurality of second regions, by comparing the plurality of first regions with the plurality of second regions; and matching the registered image with the input image by comparing the first matching region with the second matching region.
