  • Publication number: 20230269244
    Abstract: A multifunction peripheral (MFP) includes user selectable functions that call home applications on the device that direct it to work cooperatively with cloud service providers. To avoid requiring users to login to each cloud service each time they use it, they are registered with an authorization server to establish and grant identity and authorization tokens. When a user logs in to an MFP, they are redirected to login to the authorization server which then sends tokens to the MFP identifying the user and their permissions and licenses. Home applications associated by the tokens are displayed for selection. Each time a home application using a cloud service is selected, a background application sends the user's session tokens with a service request to an associated cloud service resource server. The resource servers processes authenticated requests and return the result to the MFP which completes the selected home application function.

  • Publication number: 20060182362
    Abstract: Systems and methods, etc., and the like for harnessing the human peripheral field motion detection (“PFMD”) system to detect and analyze features in a digital image, including the interpretation of images such as radiographic images in medical and other fields. The systems, methods, etc., include providing a series of images then providing and indicator such as applying magnitude enhancement analysis to an image selected due to recognition of the image by the PFMD by pausing at the image.

  • Publication number: 20060072799
    Abstract: Magnitude enhancement analysis of medical and dental images of tissue or organs such as MRI, PET, CT and x-ray images configured to display intensity-related features of high-bit images, such as grayscale without distorting the underlying intensity unless desired, and/or enhancing perception of saturation, hue, color channels and other space dimensions in a digital image, and external datasets related to a 2D image. In a preferred embodiment, the tissue or organ has been administered a contrast agent prior to the image being taken. In a more preferred embodiment, a series of images of the same tissue or organ has been taken over time to show changes in the tissue or organ over time.

  • Publication number: 20060034536
    Abstract: Systems and methods, etc., comprising magnitude enhancement analysis configured to display intensity-related features of high-bit images, such as grayscale, on low-bit display systems, without distorting the underlying intensity unless desired, measuring the thickness of materials, and/or enhancing perception of saturation, hue, color channels and other space dimensions in a digital image, and external datasets related to a 2d image. These various aspects and embodiments provide improve systems and approaches to display and analyze, particularly through the human eye (HVS).
