Abstract: A display apparatus includes an acquisition section, a specification section, and a display controller. The acquisition section acquires page information indicative of a page of a reference destination of a book. The specification section specifies a location, which corresponds to the acquired page information, on a fore edge of the book. The display controller performs control such that an image indicative of the specified location on the fore edge is superimposedly displayed on the fore edge which is seen through a display provided in the display apparatus that is mounted on a user.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a selecting unit that selects multiple applications from multiple applications that perform first processing of reading an image in a form corresponding to setting values that are set beforehand and that have to be set to execute each application, and perform second processing with regard to the read image, an executing unit that executes the selected multiple applications, and a controller that controls the executing unit to execute the first processing and the second processing by one application alone, and to not execute the first processing but to execute the second processing by another application with regard to the image read by the one application.

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to realize automatic video generation displaying in an easily understandable manner the state of brush stroke as effectively maintaining immersion feeling happened by looking-around operation during reproduction of the image production of an omnidirectional image. A stroke information group is associated with valid line-of-sight information from a reproduction sequence recording the line-of-sight information and the stroke information group. The number of frames between a pair of line-of-sight information is made constant. When the line-of-sight moves from a line-of-sight A via a line-of-sight B to a line-of-sight C, the stroke information group corresponding to the line-of-sight B is reproduced in a range from “a frame of a center between the line-of-sight information A and B” to “a frame of a center between the line-of-sight information B and C”.

Abstract: An authentication control apparatus includes a first authenticating unit, a second authenticating unit, a controller, and an outputting unit. The first authenticating unit performs first authentication using authentication information stored in association with a memory area. The second authenticating unit performs second authentication using authentication information stored in association with a user. The controller performs control to perform one of authentication operations that are the first authentication and the second authentication when the user uses the memory area. The outputting unit outputs information if the one of the authentication operations performed under the control of the controller does not succeed. The information prompts the user to input authentication information to be used in an authentication operation performed when the user uses the memory area.

Abstract: A thermally sprayed coating is formed on an inner surface of a cylinder bore of a cylinder block by using a thermal spray gun. The thermal spray gun is reciprocated along an axial direction in the cylinder bore while being rotated, and injects melted droplets generated by melting a wire made of a ferrous material from a nozzle at its end. At this time, a moving speed of the thermal spray gun along the axial direction into the cylinder bore is made equal-to or larger-than a predetermined value, and the number of reciprocating cycles of the thermal spray gun along the axial direction into the cylinder bore is made equal-to or larger-than a predetermined value.

Abstract: This invention has an object to provide an image editing program and apparatus allowing users to intuitively produce images covering the omnidirection. In a virtual space, an omnidirectional image is projected according to a coordinate conversion and displayed at a display device 20. For omnidirectional image edition, a view direction and a view angle are changed in the virtual space with a pointing device 30, and under control of a central control unit 11, display of the omnidirectional image in a screen image is renewed to perform two-dimensional drawing to an image for drawing having the same coordinate system as that of the screen image with the pointing device 30 using the screen image as a clue. After the end of drawing, the coordinate conversion is made to the drawing image to project the image at a proper position of the omnidirectional image. The omnidirectional image is thus completed by repeating the steps of view direction changes and drawing.

A transformation original image is scanned to renew the accumulation map corresponding to the position of the scanned pixels, based on the scanned pixels, and then, the transformation target image is scanned to renew the transformation target image based on pixels of the accumulation map corresponding to the position of the scanned pixels.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a first accepting unit, a controller, and a second accepting unit. The first accepting unit accepts a first operation from an operator to specify a process to be performed on an image of a paper, which is to be read, from among multiple processes before accepting a starting instruction from the operator. The controller controls, in a case where the starting instruction is accepted before the first operation is accepted, an image reading unit to perform an image reading process on the image of the paper. The second accepting unit accepts, after the image reading process is started, a second operation from the operator to specify a process to be performed on the image from among the multiple processes.
