  • Patent number: 11004174
    Abstract: A variable image display body and a lenticular image formation method that are capable of displaying a variable image without incongruity are provided. In a variable image display body, lenticular images are composed of arranged image strips obtained by scaling a plurality of images so that subject images appearing in the respective images have the same size, subjecting the scaled images to position adjustment so that reference portions of the subject images in the scaled images are located at the same position, in the superimposed state, trimming a region in which a predetermined number of the scaled images are overlapped and the subject images are included, and extracting image strips in the form of lines from each of the trimmed images.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9007691
    Abstract: An object is to provide an image display sheet capable of realizing a smooth pseudo moving image and observing the image with reduced in discomfort. A configuration is provided in which a lenticular sheet composed of an arrangement of a plurality of cylindrical lenses 1a and an image forming layer 3 are laminated, and the image display sheet is formed capable of observing an image formed on the image forming layer 3 from the convex shape side of the cylindrical lenses 1a of the lenticular sheet, as a virtual image with movement, or movement and deformation. The image forming layer 3 is formed repeatedly with a plurality of images 3 for displaying virtual images in association with the cylindrical lenses 1a so as to correspond to the cylindrical lenses 1a, respectively, one-on-one, and difference between an arrangement pitch length A of the cylindrical lenses 1a and a pitch length B of the repeatedly formed images 3a formed on the image forming layer 3 is in a range of 0% to 10%.

  • Patent number: 8934174
    Abstract: An object is to provide an image display sheet provided for position detection of an object to be observed so as to realize a smooth pseudo moving image. The image display sheet is provided for an object 3000 to be observed for position detection and constituted by laminating a lenticular sheet composed of arrangement of a plurality of cylindrical lenses and an image forming layer, and an image formed on the image forming layer from a convex shape side of the cylindrical lenses of the lenticular sheet is formed to be observable as virtual image provided with movement, or movement and deformation.

  • Publication number: 20060107088
    Abstract: A remote site managing system manages, in a unified fashion, computers and peripheral devices installed at a customer site. The remote site managing system automatically receives information indicating a failure which has occurred or indicating a high possibility that a failure will occur in some of PC/servers or peripheral devices installed in a customer's office and provides maintenance services without causing a customer to be concerned about anything. Furthermore, transmission of a request to a maintenance service company and reception of a service operation report from the service company are performed by the remote site managing system in an unified fashion.
