  • Publication number: 20230021721
    Abstract: An image processing device 10 includes an image interface 18, a memory 19, and a controller 20. The image interface 18 acquires a captured image. The positions of specific feature points in a world coordinate system and reference positions of the specific feature points are stored in the memory 19. The controller 20 detects the specific feature points in the captured image. In a case where discrepancy between the position in the captured image and the reference position is found with regard to a predetermined percentage or more of the specific feature points, the controller 20 recalculates a calibration parameter.

  • Patent number: 10904409
    Abstract: A detection apparatus includes an image acquisition interface that acquires a captured image captured by an imaging unit and a controller that generates or acquires a smoothed image yielded by smoothing the captured image. The controller compares the captured image and the smoothed image and detects a low-frequency region having a predetermined spatial frequency spectrum from the captured image.

  • Publication number: 20050281409
    Abstract: The invention provides a multi-channel audio system which creates a multi-channel surround environment by outputting a front signal, a surround signal and a surround back signal. The system has surround speakers each including a surround speaker unit for outputting sound corresponding to the surround signal and a surround back speaker unit for outputting sound corresponding to the surround back signal in a direction different from the sound outputting direction of the surround speaker.

  • Publication number: 20050190274
    Abstract: An imaging device having nonconventional and a completely new imaging method and an image generation method of the imaging device, wherein the imaging device has an image processing section generating a first compressed image compressed high image data with intra-frame compression in capturing single moving image data and a second compressed image compressed low image data with inter-frame compression in a front period and/or in a rear period of a period generating the first compressed image as one stream, where the imaging device generates still image data having high-resolution indicating one screen designated by decompression and decoding by the second compressed image and the other compressed image including the first compressed image when one screen of a second compressed image is designated.
