Abstract: A communication terminal includes circuitry. The circuitry is configured to calculate, for each of a plurality of captured-image data items that are obtained by continuous image capturing, a center point of an object detection area of the captured-image data item. The circuitry is further configured to render a heat map image having a gradation of color, the gradation of color of the heat map image being determined based on weighting of colors of the heat map image with the calculated center points of the captured-image data items. The circuitry is further configured to map the heat map image on a captured-image represented by one of the plurality of captured-image data items. The circuitry is further configured to display the captured-image on which the heat map image is mapped.

Abstract: A safety equipment includes a mounting part, circuitry, and a transmitter. An image capturing device is detachably mounted to the mounting part of the safety equipment. The image capturing device captures an image of an object to acquire data of a full spherical panoramic image. The circuitry acquires the data of the full spherical panoramic image from the image capturing device mounted to the mounting part. The transmitter transmits the acquired data of the full spherical panoramic image to a communication terminal through a communication network. The communication terminal outputs an image based on the acquired data of the full spherical panoramic image.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a core unit configured to control an external device that is communicatively connected to the information processing apparatus; and a calling unit that is included in the core unit and is configured to call a plug-in that enables the external device to implement a predetermined function when controlling the external device. The plug-in, when called by the calling unit at a specific timing, interrupts a process related to the control of the external device performed by the core unit with a process related to the predetermined function provided by the plug-in.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a script file storage unit and a script execution unit. The script file storage unit stores therein a first script to convert the data format of print setting information from a first format to a second format, and a second script for converting the data format of the print setting information from the second format to the first format. At least part of the print setting information in the first format cannot be changed through an application. The print setting information in the second format can be changed through the application. The script execution unit executes at least one of the first script and the second script in accordance with a request from the application.

Abstract: A printer driver includes a job command generation module storage unit that stores therein a plurality of job command generation modules for generating a job command, a drawing command generation module storage unit that stores therein a plurality of drawing command generation modules for generating a drawing command to instruct a printer to print an image, a determining unit that determines a combination of the job command generation module stored in the job command generation module storage unit and the drawing command generation module stored in the drawing command generation module storage unit, a generation requesting unit that requests the determined job command generation module and drawing command generation module to generate a command, and a transmitting unit that transmits the generated job command and drawing command to the printer.

Abstract: Setting information of a printer driver and setting information of plug-in software added to the printer driver are stored in different folders from each other, and managed independently of each other. At the time of using a function of the plug-in, the printer driver merges the setting information of the printer driver with the setting information of the plug-in, and controls the print setting or a printer device by using the merged setting information. As the setting information of the printer driver and the setting information of the plug-in are stored in the different folders, when the plug-in is removed, as for the setting information, it is only necessary to delete the setting information of the plug-in to be removed; thus, it is easy to remove the plug-in.

Abstract: A computer-readable storage medium storing a printer driver program is disclosed. The printer driver program causes a computer to draw and display a printer configuration image.
