Patent number: 11341726Abstract: An information processing apparatus including a processor configured to detect a connection to each of a first and second image display apparatus, generate a first image based on first medical apparatus information acquired from a first medical apparatus and a second image based on second medical apparatus information acquired from a second medical apparatus, detect an object from an outside scene that is captured by both the first and second image display apparatuses, and acquire a first distance from the first image display apparatus to the object and a second distance from the second image display apparatus to the object. When the first distance is smaller than the second distance, the processor causes the first image display apparatus to display the first image at a first size that is greater than a second size of the first image displayed at the second image display apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2020Date of Patent: May 24, 2022Assignee: SEIKO EPSON CORPORATIONInventors: Atsunari Tsuda, Toshikazu Uchiyama, Hitomi Wakamiya, Masahide Takano

Patent number: 6604682Abstract: A two-dimensional bar code reading method and apparatus search the finder pattern in a scanned image of a two-dimensional bar code symbol, find orientation modules, find data modules, and convert the symbol to data characters as part of the decoding process for the scanned image of a MaxiCode symbol. In the data module search part of a MaxiCode symbol decoding process, position and shape information is calculated for data modules on an orientation axis, assuming an orientation axis passing the finder pattern center point, inside orientation module center point, and outside orientation module center point (step to S1801). Based on pixel data corresponding to the calculated location of the center point in each module, a bit pattern is generated where black data cells are 1 bits and white cells are 0 bits (S1802). The locations of MaxiCode symbol data modules in the area between orientation axes are then calculated (S1803).Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2001Date of Patent: August 12, 2003Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventors: Hitomi Wakamiya, Shinichi Arazaki, Fumio Koyama, Satoshi Yanagida, Haruyoshi Ohori
