  • Publication number: 20240106941
    Abstract: Provided is an image processing apparatus that performs image processing on original image data, the apparatus including a communication transceiver that performs communication with a terminal, a memory that stores parameter information indicating a relationship between image processing-related information transmitted from the terminal and an image processing parameter, and a processor, in which the processor acquires the original image data from an image server that communicates with the image processing apparatus via the communication transceiver, performs, the image processing on the original image data using the image processing parameter corresponding to the image processing-related information based on the parameter information, and transmits image data after the image processing to the terminal via the communication transceiver.

  • Publication number: 20240038045
    Abstract: A system includes a sensor detecting entry/exit of a person to/from a toilet and a sensor detecting leaving/sitting on a toilet seat installed on a toilet bowl; acquires excretion information indicating at least a start and an end of excretion, based on imaging data captured by an image capture apparatus installed in such a way as to include, in an image capture range, an excretion range of excrement in the bowl; authenticates a person performed entry/exit, and determines whether the person is a person to be assisted as a user of the toilet or a helper; outputs notification information to a notification destination, based on a detection event indicated by the excretion information, entry/exit information, leaving/sitting information, and an authentication result, and a notification condition; and stores, as the notification condition, necessity of notification, and the notification information and the notification destination when notification is necessary, for each events.

  • Publication number: 20230225714
    Abstract: An excrement analysis apparatus includes an inputter, a memory, a first analyzer, and a second analyzer. The inputter inputs imaging data captured by an image capture apparatus installed in such a way as to include, in a capturing range, an excretion range of excrement in a toilet bowl of a toilet. The memory temporarily holds the imaging data input by the inputter. The first analyzer analyzes first analysis target data being the imaging data input by the inputter, and outputs notification information to an observer who observes a user of the toilet. The second analyzer analyzes second analysis target data being the imaging data that is input by the inputter and temporarily held by the memory, and outputs detailed information indicating a content of excretion.

  • Patent number: 5269478
    Abstract: A bobbin trace system in which a bar code for distinguishing a bobbin is affixed on a tray on which the bobbin to be fed from the spindle on the fine spinning frame to the winder is inserted upright, the bar code is read by a bar code reader and at the same time the yarn characteristic of the bobbin of the code is detected, the yarn characteristic thus detected is transferred to the controller which controls the operation of the winder, and the controller reads the code of the tray to be fed to the winder and feeds the bobbin characteristic corresponding to this code back to the winder, thereby controlling the operation of the winder on the basis of the bobbin characteristic thus fed back.
