Abstract: A document sheet length detection portion detects document sheets placed on a tray while distinguishing between a first size document sheet whose length in a conveyance direction is equal to or longer than a reference length, and a second size document sheet whose length in the conveyance direction is shorter than the reference length. A selection portion selects, as a specified conveyance process, one of a first conveyance process and a second conveyance process. A control portion, after a predetermined start event occurs, causes a conveyance device to execute the second conveyance process when the second conveyance process has been selected as the specified conveyance process and the document sheet length detection portion has detected the first size document sheet, and causes the conveyance device to execute the first conveyance process when a number of document sheets conveyed during the second conveyance process has reached an upper-limit number.

Abstract: A clip region recognition section recognizes clip regions from a read image. An inclination detection section detects an inclination of each of the clip regions. When the clip regions exist in number between P and Q, inclusive, a first processing control section executes a first clip processing. When the number is under P and over Q, a second processing control section executes a second clip processing. In the first clip processing, processing that an inclination correction section rotates the image according to the inclination of one of the clip regions and that a clip processing section cuts out the clip region is performed on each clip region. In the second clip processing, a clip region selection section selects one of the clip regions, the inclination correction section rotates the image according to the inclination of the selected clip region, and the clip processing section cuts out all the clip regions.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an image reading section, a marker detection section, and a processing section. The marker detection section analyzes image data and detects a first marker portion indicated in the image data and a second marker portion indicated in the image data in a mode different from a mode of the first marker, and also extracts texts indicated in the first marker portion and the second marker portion. The processing section performs processing of transmitting the image data where the text indicated in the first marker portion is defined as a file name of the image data and the text indicated in the second marker portion is defined as a transmission address to which the image data is transmitted.

Abstract: A main body includes a front engaging part on a front side thereof. The front engaging part is engaged with an interior part of the vehicle. The main body is pivotable about the front engaging part. A first string includes a first connecting part connected to the main body rearward of the front engaging part and a first engaging part engaged with a pivotable back door. A second string includes a second connecting part connected to the main body rearward of the front engaging part and a second engaging part engaged with a vehicle main body. The first string is subjected to tension due to weight of the main body and the second string is loosened when the back door is opened. When the main body is moved to a direction that causes the first string to loosen in said state, the second string is subjected to tension.

Abstract: A binarization processing unit 11 performs a binarization process the basis of existence of at least one of lightness and chroma for a candidate image of template matching. A labeling processing unit 12 performs a labeling process for the binarized candidate image and thereby extracts a pixel block in the binarized candidate image. An outline determining unit 14 performs sampling of a position on an outermost periphery of the pixel block, and identifies a range from a centroid position of the pixel block and an angle from a predetermined direction as the position. A correlation determining unit 15 determines a correlation between the ranges and the angles of both the candidate image and the reference image on the basis of the reference outline data, and excludes the candidate image from a candidate of the template matching in accordance with degree of the correlation.
