  • Patent number: 9418614
    Abstract: There is provided a liquid crystal display apparatus capable of preventing image degradation when driving a liquid crystal panel. In the liquid crystal display apparatus, a control unit, when there are more pixels indicating the first gradation than the second gradation, controls the supply state of the pixel voltage simultaneously supplied to the plurality of pixel electrodes to prolong the time period between the timing of changing the supply state of the pixel voltage corresponding to the first gradation and the timing of changing the supply state of the pixel voltage corresponding to the second gradation so as to become longer than that when there are fewer pixels indicating the first gradation than the second gradation.

  • Patent number: 9392063
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus controls image transfer to display an image by projection while making full use of a screen resolution of an external display device without requiring a user to take time and trouble. A server sends a plurality of contents including a first and second content differing in amount of information and associated with each other. To request any one of the contents with the external display device not connected, the server is notified of information for receiving the first content, and to request the content with the external display device connected, the server is not notified of the information. In a case where a state of connection with the external display device changes while the content is displayed, the content is requested from the server again, which determines whether to notify the server of the information in accordance with the state of connection after the change.

  • Patent number: 9377875
    Abstract: At least part of screen data corresponding to a screen displayed on the display unit of an information processing apparatus is transmitted to an image output apparatus. Transmission includes the first transmission mode in which at least part of screen data and pointer position information indicating the position of a pointer in the screen are transmitted without associating them, and the second transmission mode in which at least part of screen data and pointer position information are associated and transmitted. In a case that a predetermined operation using the pointer to an object included in the screen is detected, at least part of screen data is transmitted in the second transmission mode.

  • Publication number: 20150370526
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus that transmits image data to be displayed in a display unit to a display control apparatus and comprises a capture unit configured to capture the image data to be displayed, a transmission control unit configured to perform control such that the captured image data is transmitted to the display control apparatus, and a detection unit configured to detect an operation performed on the information processing apparatus. In a case where the detection unit detects a predetermined operation for changing a display appearance of the image data to be displayed, the transmission control unit performs control such that information of an amount of change resulting from the predetermined operation is transmitted to the display control apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20140218267
    Abstract: The communication apparatus obtains a projection image to be projected. In a case where a change from a first projection image to a second projection image has been detected, the communication apparatus distributes second distribution data based on the second projection image to an external apparatus. In a case where the second distribution data has already been distributed, the communication apparatus controls not to distribute data based on the second projection image as new distribution data.

  • Patent number: 8643744
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of storing as many number of image files as possible, while adding file names conforming to a file storage standard, and capable of making it easy for a user to browse the desired image file among a vast number of continuously photographed image files. When one or plural representative images are selected from among continuously photographed images, a control unit of a digital camera as the image processing apparatus stores the one or more selected representative images into a memory card after a file name conforming to the file storage standard is added to each representative image, and stores continuously photographed images other than the one or more representative images into the memory card after file names not conforming to the file storage standard are added to these images.

  • Patent number: 8493283
    Abstract: An image of an area smaller than the number of horizontal pixels and the number of vertical pixels of an external image display apparatus is extracted from a display area if the number of horizontal pixels of a part of a display area designated by a designation unit is greater than the number of horizontal pixels of the external image display apparatus acquired by an acquisition unit and/or if the number of vertical pixels of the part of the display area designated by the designation unit is greater than the number of vertical pixels of the external image display apparatus acquired by the acquisition unit.
