Abstract: An image providing system capable of quickly providing a plurality of different cropped images is disclosed. The image providing system acquires position information about a position of a user designated by the user. The image providing system determines a range of an image that was captured by an image capturing unit, the range corresponding to the position information as a cropping range, before the image capturing unit starts a series of image capturing in which the image capturing unit captures a plurality of images. After the series of image capturing is started, the system applies cropping that cuts out a part of a captured image based on the cropping range. During the series of image capturing, the system provides a cropped image to which the cropping has been applied in a way in which a user can obtain the cropped image.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a sensor configured to capture an image of an affected part, and a processor configured to obtain information about a size of the affected part in the captured image, and control timing to capture an image of the affected part or control timing to prompt a user to perform an imaging operation based on the information about the size of the affected part.

Abstract: This invention provides a control apparatus that controls a pan-head including a drive unit for driving an image capturing device, the control apparatus comprising a control unit that controls the drive unit according to a request received via a communication unit; a determination unit that, in a case in which a connection request is received from a terminal, determines whether a first application program for configuration setting relating to the pan-head or a second application program for remote control of the pan-head is being executed in the terminal; a management unit that manages a terminal authorized for connection; and a decision unit that, in a case in which a new connection request is received, decides whether connection is possible or impossible on the basis of the determination by the determination unit and information managed by the management unit.

Abstract: An image processing system comprises an imaging apparatus and an image processing apparatus. The imaging apparatus receives light from a subject to generate image data, outputs the image data to a communication network, and displays an image based on the image data. The image processing apparatus acquires the image data over the communication network, and extracts an affected area of the subject from the image data. The image processing apparatus outputs information indicating a result of extraction of the affected area to the communication network, and the imaging apparatus acquires the information indicating the result of extraction of the affected area. The imaging apparatus performs display based on the information and causes a user to input evaluation values of a plurality of predetermined evaluation items in the affected area.

Abstract: A display control apparatus according to the present invention includes: a first setting unit configured to set, in response to a user instruction, a processing parameter used for predetermined image processing; a processing unit configured to generate processed image data by performing the predetermined image processing on input image data using the processing parameter set by the first setting unit; a second setting unit configured to set a display mode specified by a user from among a plurality of display modes for displaying an image based on the processed image data on a display unit in a brightness range that differs from a brightness range of the input image data; and a recording unit configured to record, in a storage medium, information relating to the display mode set by the second setting unit together with the processing parameter set by the first setting unit.

Abstract: A communication apparatus specifies content to be transmitted to an external apparatus, out of pieces of content recorded in a recording medium, and when there is a plurality of specified pieces of content, transmits first content out of the plurality of pieces of content to the external apparatus, and after the transmission of the first content, receives a notification of receipt of the first content from the external apparatus, and when the notification is received, deletes the first content from the recording medium, and after the deletion of the first content, transmits second content out of the plurality of pieces of content to the external apparatus.

Abstract: a display apparatus, comprises a display panel; a backlight that illuminates the display panel; a vibration member that vibrates the display panel; and a control unit that controls the backlight, wherein the control unit enhances brightness of the backlight at least in a part of a predetermined period, including a timing when the vibration member starts vibration, to be higher than brightness outside the predetermined period.

Abstract: A display apparatus comprises a display panel; a vibration element configured to vibrate the display panel; a detection unit configured to detect movement of the display apparatus or turn of the display panel; and a correction unit configured to vibrate the vibration element in a case where the detection unit detects the movement of the display apparatus or the turn of the display panel.

Abstract: In an AV system in which a television apparatus and a recorder are individually connected to an AV amplifier through an HDMI, in the case where sound is output from the AV amplifier, if insertion of headphones into the television apparatus is detected, control information to switch the destination of the audio data is transmitted from the television apparatus to the AV amplifier. The AV amplifier switches the destination of the audio data that is input from the recorder from a speaker output section to the television apparatus in accordance with the control information. Thus, even if the headphones are inserted into the television apparatus while the AV amplifier is outputting sound reproduced by the recorder, the sound can be output from the headphones.
