Patent number: 8365223Abstract: An apparatus and method capable of selecting and providing content while reducing the load on a user are provided. A controlled device is determined based on content identification information. Control information corresponding to the determined controlled device is generated and output to, for example, a remote controller, and device control is performed based on a control signal from the remote controller. The user can output and view content without performing processing necessary to output the content, such as processing on a control device, a channel operation to the control device, and searching for the content storage location. Further, content cards recording content information are displayed as a card group and content information of a card at a position of a cursor is displayed.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2010Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Osamu Watanabe, Tetsugo Inada, Hideshi Yamada, Yasuhiro Moriyama

Patent number: 7609263Abstract: A drawing processing apparatus is provided to solve the problems in which pixels of a drawing primitive with sub-pixel information may have an increased amount of data causing a burden on implementation. A setup processing unit sets up various parameters to allow a digital differential analyzer (DDA) to process the stream of a drawing primitive supplied from a primitive input unit. The DDA performs DDA processing on the drawing primitive supplied from the setup processing unit for conversion into pixel data. The DDA performs the DDA processing on a per rectangular pixel set basis along a scan line to output the pixel data of the drawing primitive on a per rectangular pixel set basis. A compression encoding unit encodes the sub-pixel information of each pixel contained in the rectangular pixel set by run length encoding for output to a FIFO buffer.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2006Date of Patent: October 27, 2009Assignee: Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.Inventors: Tanio Nagasaki, Teruyuki Nakahashi, Minoru Takahata, Yasuhiro Moriyama

Patent number: 7280121Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of realizing accurate anti-aliasing with a small memory, without being affected by the order of drawing, and without inducing a drop in the drawing speed, including an anti-aliasing system obtaining edge information from an image after drawing, determining a processing content necessary for the anti-aliasing, and performing the determined processing. Specifically, either of the information of a z-buffer and the information of the normal vector at each pixel obtained at the time of drawing, or both information, is scanned or by the information of normal vectors restored from the information of the z-buffer is used, a state machine for holding the state and a counter for measuring the continuity of an edge are prescribed, the value of which pixel adjacent in which direction to each pixel on each edge and what kind of ratio to use for blending are determined, and the determined values are used for blending. This is performed successively until the pixel values are updated.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2004Date of Patent: October 9, 2007Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Teruyuki Nakahashi, Osamu Watanabe, Tanio Nagasaki, Tetsugo Inada, Yasuhiro Moriyama, Hideshi Yamada

Publication number: 20050068326Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of extracting edge information accurate enough to be able to be utilized for anti-aliasing without rendering of pixels other than the originally necessary drawn pixels and without inducing a drop in the drawing speed, including an anti-aliasing system for restoring edge information for an x-direction and a y-direction in screen coordinates from an image after drawing, determining a processing content necessary for the anti-aliasing from the obtained edge information, and performing the determined processing. Specifically, by scanning either of the information of a z-buffer and the information of the normal vector at each pixel obtained at the time of drawing, or both information, or by using the information of normal vectors restored from the information of the z-buffer, the anti-aliasing is applied to each pixel.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 23, 2004Publication date: March 31, 2005Inventors: Teruyuki Nakahashi, Osamu Watanabe, Tanio Nagasaki, Tetsugo Inada, Yasuhiro Moriyama, Hideshi Yamada
