  • Patent number: 9413949
    Abstract: Digital-photo analyzing apparatus and computer-readable medium storing a digital-photo analyzing program for presenting the relationship between respective values and the quality of a digital photo based on a shutter speed, a TV value, a diaphragm value, an AV value, an ISO sensitivity, or a shooting record EV value of the digital photo. The digital-photo analyzing apparatus displays: a two-dimensional matrix using the shutter speed as a scale, the TV value, the diaphragm value, the AV value, or the shooting record EV value; and a three-dimensional matrix further using the ISO sensitivity as a scale. The two-dimensional matrix and the three-dimensional matrix display a plot or a thumbnail of the digital photo. Reference to the two-dimensional matrix or the three-dimensional matrix displaying the plot or the thumbnail allows a user to recognize the relationship between the digital photo and various values and analyze the various values affecting on the quality of the digital photo.

  • Patent number: 9372875
    Abstract: An image data display system classifies image data into a cluster based on a predetermined condition regardless of whether or not the image data conforms to DCF standard and displays information specific to the image data when displayed as a slide show. A CPU creates a cluster, including a plurality of the image data, and a slide show table having first and second cluster name candidates based on a FAT data or an Exif data and a third cluster name candidate input by a user. The image display screen combines any two of the above first, second, and third cluster name candidates and displays a list of the combined candidates as cluster names indicating contents of the image data. The user can select the cluster name in high visibility and can easily display the desired image data as the slide show.

  • Patent number: 8798543
    Abstract: There is provided a simple data wireless transmission/reception system and program which enables a user to transmit an image folder easily and instinctively without performing a complicated communication process setting. The user touches a transmission icon of a mobile electronic device as a first transmission operation and moves an IC card closer to the mobile electronic device as a second transmission operation. A CPU generates a basic connection data and a communication connection condition data. The CPU detects a simple transmission SSID and designates an access point. When the user moves the IC card closer to a stationary electronic device as a third transmission operation, the CPU performs a client setting. When a fourth transmission operation is performed, the CPU transmits the image folder. Accordingly, the user can transmit a desired data from the mobile electronic device to the stationary electronic device easily with simple and instinctive operations.

  • Patent number: 4811119
    Abstract: A magnetic tape recording/reproducing apparatus for recording video signals on a magnetic tape without providing a guard band between each two adjacent signal tracks. The apparatus comprises a first switching circuit for exchanging 2-channel component signals every nH period to obtain two combined signals each composed of the 2-channel signals which alternate every nH period, two modulators for modulating the two combined signals, a head section having two pairs of rotarty magnetic heads for recording the modulated signals on the magnetic tape so that each two adjacent blocks contain a same channel component signal and for reproducing the recorded signals from the magnetic tape, two demodulators for demodulating the reproduced signals, and a second switching circuit for exchanging the demodulated signals every nH to obtain the 2-channel component signals. With this arrangement, the recording density is remarkably increased and the cross talk interference hardly occur.

  • Patent number: 4041244
    Abstract: A stereophonic signal generator for generating a composite signal for effectively attenuating undesired spurious signals in a modulated signal, e.g., in a four channel stereophonic signal. In the generator, the main spurious signal, which is a spurious signal most closely adjacent to a given or desired frequency band for a necessary signal, is cancelled by a cancellation signal which is in a compensation relationship with the main spurious signal. Thus, residual spurious signals are attenuated easily by simple filters without degrading the necessary signals.
