  • Publication number: 20120293654
    Abstract: An image transmission apparatus configured to transmit a captured image captured by an imaging unit to a display apparatus via a network includes a detection unit configured to detect that an image capturing direction of the imaging unit reaches a reference direction, a limiting unit configured to limit display of an entire or partial region of the captured image, a providing unit configured to provide information for composing a screen to be used for displaying the captured image on the display apparatus, and a control unit configured to cause the limiting unit to limit display of an entire or partial region of the captured image captured during a detection period after starting of changing of the image capturing direction and before detecting that the image capturing direction reaches the reference direction, and to allow providing the information for composing the screen during a period including the detection period.

  • Patent number: 6456400
    Abstract: A data communication apparatus such as a facsimile is constructed by a communication unit to transmit and receive data, an output unit such as a printer to output the data received by the communication unit, and a connection unit such as an LAN to connect one or more external apparatuses. Data of an output-capable ability of the output unit and data of an output-capable ability of the external apparatus connected through the connection unit are notified to a communication apparatus on the partner side by the communication unit. The ability data indicates an image size and a resolution of image data that can be outputted by the output unit and/or the external apparatus. The data communication apparatus also has a transfer unit to transfer the data received by the communication unit to the external apparatus connected to the LAN. When the image size and resolution of the received image data exceed the output-capable ability of the output unit, the transfer unit transfers the received data.

  • Patent number: 6414759
    Abstract: An apparatus capable of forming both color and monochrome images is disclosed which when a document containing a color page is received while a memory reception mode is set, i.e., while the received document is controlled not to be output, (1) all pages of this received document only are output, (2) only color pages of this document are output, (3) all pages of this document only are transferred to an external apparatus, or (4) only color pages of this document are transferred to the external apparatus, in order for an image memory to be prevented from being made full and entering a reception disable state.
