  • Patent number: 11386585
    Abstract: A driving support device includes processing circuitry to judge a target object that is a real object existing in the vicinity of the vehicle and should be paid attention to by the driver; to generate a visual attraction stimulation image that appears to move from a position farther than the target object towards a position where the target object exists; to cause a display device to display the visual attraction stimulation image; and to receive body information from a body information detector acquiring the body information on the driver, to calculate a value indicating body reaction to visual stimulation sensed by the driver, and to correct a display parameter that determines display condition of the visual attraction stimulation image based on the value indicating the body reaction so as to change a degree of the visual stimulation given to the driver by the visual attraction stimulation image.

  • Patent number: 10229543
    Abstract: An information processing device displays a marker serving as a sign for a display area, to the display area. An AR device detects the marker from a photographic image showing the information processing device, and selects the display area of the information processing device from the photographic image based on the detected marker. The AR device displays an AR image by superimposing an information illustration over the photographic image to avoid the display area of the information processing device. AR is an abbreviation of augmented reality.

  • Publication number: 20170169595
    Abstract: An unusable area selection unit (130) selects, from a photographic image (191) showing an information processing display device, a display area of the information processing display device, as an unusable area. An AR image generation unit (140) generates an AR image (194) by superimposing superimposing information (192) over a photographic image to avoid an unusable area. An AR image display unit (150) displays the AR image (194) in the display area of an AR display device. AR is an abbreviation of augmented reality.

  • Patent number: 9680719
    Abstract: A batch request processing device that, when a response corresponding to a performance request issued by a GUI processing device is stored in a response storage device, outputs an output command for outputting the response to the GUI processing device, whereas when no response corresponding to the performance request is stored in the response storage device, commands a request pattern management device to predict a request which may be issued following the performance request and generate a request pattern which consists of the performance request and the predicted request, and generates a batch request including the request pattern generated by the request pattern management device.

  • Patent number: 9596145
    Abstract: An event list required by a graphical user interface (GUI) apparatus is notified to a service apparatus. The service apparatus assigns an ID to an event list and responds to the GUI apparatus. In a case where an event occurs in the service apparatus, the service apparatus determines based on an event list from the GUI apparatus whether to perform an event notification. When notifying an event to the service apparatus, the GUI apparatus transmits an ID in place of an event list in a case where the ID exists.

  • Publication number: 20160275359
    Abstract: An image extraction unit (104) extracts an image of a specific photographic object from among images of photographic objects included in a photographic image photographed by a camera (200). A distance calculation processing execution unit (105) executes a distance calculation processing in which a distance from the camera (200) to a photographic object is calculated using an image of the photographic object included in the photographic image, exclusively to the image of the specific photographic object extracted by the image extraction unit (104).
