  • Publication number: 20200228729
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a detector, a generator, and a compositor. The detector detects a first image region including a specific part of a subject from a first image obtained by photographing the subject. A generator generates a plurality of mask images for specifying a region to be composited with a second image including the first image region. The compositor composites the first image with the second image using the mask images. The mask images each include a region having higher luminance than luminance of the other regions out of regions of the first image, in a region in contact with another mask image or a region overlapping another mask image.

  • Publication number: 20190170416
    Abstract: In an air conditioner which is a refrigeration apparatus, a heat source unit has a heat-source-side heat exchanger in which a refrigerant exchanges heat with heat source water. The heat-source-side heat exchanger includes a plurality of heat exchange sections, and has a heat exchange region whose size can be adjusted through changing the number of heat exchange sections into which the refrigerant flows. The heat source unit has a controller which can adjust the size of the heat exchange region of the heat-source-side heat exchanger based on a differential pressure index value. This can broaden the temperature range of the heat source water within which the heat source unit of the refrigeration apparatus is operable.
