  • Publication number: 20240087100
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions to generate, using a first image obtained by imaging a three-dimensional space including an object through an optical system of a first projection method, a second image obtained by a second projection method different from the first projection method, and perform object detection using the second image. A distortion ratio on the second image satisfies a predetermined condition.

  • Publication number: 20230377310
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of reducing the influence of a distance variation includes a boundary detection unit configured to detect a boundary in each divisional region obtained by dividing image information into a plurality of divisional regions on the basis of color information of each pixel of the image information, and a combined distance information determination unit configured to determine combined distance information for each sub-region separated by the boundary in the divisional region on the basis of distance information of each pixel of the image information.

  • Patent number: 10542189
    Abstract: A print control apparatus that realizes printed matter that appears suitably in a case of observation by reflected light and in a case of observation by transmitted light is disclosed. The print control apparatus, based on data of a source image, generates first print data to be used for printing to a first surface of a recording medium. The print control apparatus also, based on data of the source image, generates second print data that is used for printing to a second surface that is different to the first surface and that represents a higher luminance range, in a luminance range that the data of the source image represents, than a luminance range that the first print data represents.

  • Publication number: 20190266710
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a setting unit configured to set a color profile corresponding to an image format selected from a plurality of image formats, a conversion unit configured to convert an input image into an image in the selected image format. The setting unit sets, when the input image is converted into an image in a first image format, a color profile in which a color value corresponding to a white color indicating predetermined brightness is assigned to a maximum signal value of the input image, and sets, when the input image is converted into an image in a second image format having a wider dynamic range than a dynamic range of the first image format, a color profile in which the color value corresponding to the white color indicating the predetermined brightness to a signal value smaller than the maximum signal value of the input image.

  • Patent number: 10102809
    Abstract: An image display apparatus, includes: a first conversion unit configured to generate first image data by applying a first gradation conversion characteristic to input image data; a light-emitting unit; a control unit configured to control an emission brightness of the light-emitting unit; a second conversion unit configured to generate second image data by correcting gradation values of the first image data based on the emission brightness of the light-emitting unit; a third conversion unit configured to generate third image data by applying a second gradation conversion characteristic to the second image data; and a display unit configured to display an image by transmitting light emitted from the light-emitting unit based on the third image data.
