20090203440 | IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND INPUT INTERFACE APPARATUS - For an input interface apparatus for recognizing the motion of an object, there may be cases where the brightness of the object to be captured is insufficient, and thus, a camera takes an image of the object operated by the object, a depth position detector detects the position of the object based on captured frames, an action identifying unit identifies an action of the player based on a result on the detection of the object, an input receiving unit receives the action as an instruction to an input-receiving image displayed on a display, and in response to the action, an illumination control unit raises the brightness of the image projected on the display higher than that before the action is detected. | 08-13-2009 |
20090295988 | TRANSMISSION APPARATUS, TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND RECEPTION APPARATUS - A transmission apparatus is disclosed. A buffer memory stores first image data and second image data having a higher resolution than the first image data as image data to be transmitted.

A communication section receives from a reception terminal device a control message representing a network situation and a level of a load imposed on a processing device performing upscaling in the reception terminal device. A control section transmits the first image data when the message denotes the network situation is bad, transmits either the first image data or second image data when it denotes the network situation is good, and controls the reception terminal device not to perform the upscaling when it denotes the network situation is good and the level of the load imposed on the processing device is high. | 12-03-2009 |
