  • Publication number: 20230185964
    Abstract: A masking apparatus identifies a screen and screen components included in individual screen data of first screen data serving as a reference and one or more pieces of second screen data serving as a processing target. In addition, the masking apparatus specifies third screen data on a basis of the screen and the screen components that are identified, the third screen data being data equivalent to the first screen data in the one or more pieces of second screen data. In addition, the masking apparatus determines necessity of masking of each screen component included in the first screen data on a basis of the third screen data.

  • Publication number: 20060152386
    Abstract: An object is to provide a navigation apparatus capable of outputting geographic information without depending on a display. When determining at step ST11 that a destination is assigned, the navigation apparatus interprets geography of an area around the assigned destination at step ST12, and generates geographic information for indicating the geography of the area around the destination as a voice output. Thereafter, the navigation apparatus outputs the voice output indicating the inputted geographic information through a loudspeaker.
