  • DISPLAY TERMINAL, COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, AND DISPLAY METHOD
    Publication number: 20240179267
    Abstract: A display terminal comprising circuitry that displays a first predetermined-area image on a display screen, the first predetermined-area image representing a predetermined area in a first wide-view image having been captured at a given location on a first date and time; and displays a second predetermined-area image on the display screen, the second predetermined-area image being related to the predetermined area in a second wide-view image, the second wide-view image having captured at the given location on a second date and time different from the first date and time.

  • Image forming apparatus and method of page classification therein
    Patent number: 9070073
    Abstract: In a case of performing free size printing with a charging approach in which a charge classification is determined based on a color pixel utilization rate, the color pixel utilization rate calculating is performed using a total number of pixels in an image area cut out at a size for color pixel utilization rate calculation, rather than the generation image data on the whole, for a denominator. With this, the calculation result of the color pixel utilization rate is prevented from becoming inaccurate.
