Patent number: 8681860Abstract: In principle, an I-frame is inserted every 50 frames and other frames are made P-frames. If the maximum amount of data that can be received by a terminal device to which a transmission is to be made is 300 KB, then frames up to a 144th frame for which the amount of data after compression will not exceed 300 KB is adopted as a first partitioned moving picture file. Since the 145th frame is the leading frame of the next partitioned moving picture file, it is made an I-frame. Frames from the 145th frame to a 289th frame are made a second partitioned moving picture file, and frames from a 290th frame to a 411th frame are made a third partitioned moving picture file. Since the leading frame of a partitioned moving picture file represents one complete frame, the moving picture can be reproduced and the number of partitions can be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2008Date of Patent: March 25, 2014Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventor: Hisayoshi Tsubaki

Publication number: 20100198824Abstract: A keyword or the like effective for conducting a search is appended to an image. Subjects contained in an image are detected. The subject names and positions of the respective subjects that have been detected are detected. Keywords representing broader concepts of the detected subject names and the positions of the subjects are stored in correlation with the image as data to be used in searching for the image. If a search for the image is conducted, the subject names or broader concepts of the subject names, which serve as keywords, and the positions of the subjects are input. An image that matches the entered subject names, etc., and subject positions is retrieved. Rather than retrieving an image simply using keywords alone, an image is retrieved utilizing also the positions of subjects. As a result, it is possible to narrow down images found in a case where a desired image is to be retrieved from among a large number of images.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2010Publication date: August 5, 2010Applicant: FUJIFILM CorporationInventor: Hisayoshi TSUBAKI

Patent number: 7733385Abstract: First and second data areas are defined in an image file, and each area is defined to have an image data recording area and a header data recording area. When the image file is reproduced, header data in a first header data recording area at the leading end is read and first image data that has been recorded in the first image data recording area is reproduced. If an image file reproducing apparatus is one that can reproduce second image data that has been recorded in the second data area, then the second image data is read from the second area and reproduced. The first image data is data that has undergone JPEG compression, and the second image data is data that has not been compressed. Since the compressed first image data and uncompressed second image data can be stored in one file, an increase in number of files can be reduced even if there is an increase in types of image format.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2005Date of Patent: June 8, 2010Assignee: Fujifilm CorporationInventors: Mikio Watanabe, Hisayoshi Tsubaki
