Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090243874 | Electronic device, computer-readable medium storing program to control electronic device, and remote control giving instructions to electronic device - An electronic device that accepts instructions from remote controls includes a user identification information obtaining device, a remote control user storage device, and an association device. The user identification information obtaining device obtains user identification information to identify a user from a user identification information storage medium. The remote control user storage device stores the user identification information of remote control users respectively associated with remote control identification information of the remote controls. The association device stores the obtained user identification information into the remote control user storage device, in a condition where the obtained user identification information is associated with the remote control identification information of any one of the remote controls. | 10-01-2009 |
20100033549 | Display control apparatus, remote control that transmits information to display control apparatus, and video conference system - A display control apparatus that receives information from remote controls and that controls a display device. The display control apparatus includes a remote control information obtaining device that obtains remote control information, a display data creation device that creates display data for displaying pointers corresponding to the remote controls based on the remote control information, a display data output device that outputs the display data, a distance determination device that calculates a relative distance between display positions of the pointers and determines whether the relative distance is larger than a predetermined distance, and a driving signal transmission device that transmits, to at least one of the remote controls corresponding to the pointers for which the relative distance is equal to or less than the predetermined distance, a driving signal to cause a notification device provided in the remote control to be driven. | 02-11-2010 |
20100049337 | PERIPHERAL DEVICE OF PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER - A tracing-result optimization processing unit generates an optimized tracing result. A tracing-result collation processing unit collates the optimized tracing result and a time chart as a basis of a sequence processing for an external apparatus and detects shift of the optimized tracing result. A tracing-result storing unit accumulates and stores therein a tracing result obtained by a programmable logic controller at predetermined time intervals. Every time the tracing result is stored in the tracing-result storing unit, the tracing-result optimization processing unit generates the optimized tracing result. | 02-25-2010 |
20100225566 | Head mount display - In a head mount display, an imaging unit detects hands of a user in such a manner by imaging a range which includes at least a display region displayed by a display unit out of a field of view of a user. In displaying a reference image which is used as a reference when a user performs a predetermined operation, the head mount display reduces visibility of the reference image for the user in a region defined between one hand and the other hand of the user. | 09-09-2010 |
20110074658 | HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY AND IMAGING DATA USAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME - A head mounted display includes: an image presentation portion that sequentially presents each of content images to a user's eye; an imaging portion that images an object when the content images are presented; an event acquisition portion that acquires an event occurring outside; a storage control unit that stores imaging data including the imaged object and imaging time position information regarding an imaging time; an event determination unit that determines whether the acquired event has a specific feature; a first specification unit that specifies first time position information regarding a timing when the event having the specific feature is occurred; and a first association registration unit, which, when the event has the specific feature, associates presentation identification information for identifying the presented content images with the first time position information, and which registers the presentation identification information and the first time position information. | 03-31-2011 |
20110157365 | HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY - A head-mounted display includes an image capture device that captures an image; a first setting device that sets a starting time for the capturing of the image; a start command device that causes the image capture device to start capturing the image at the starting time; a first acquiring device that acquires an audio text in which sound that is emitted by a captured object has been converted into text; a storage control device that stores in a storage device the image that has been captured during an interval from the time that the capturing of the image is started until the audio text is acquired; a first creating device that creates a display image in which the captured image and the audio text are synchronized by superimposing the audio text on the captured image; and a display control device that outputs the display image. | 06-30-2011 |
20110227907 | HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY - A head-mounted display is provided. The head-mounted display includes an image presentation unit configured to present an image to an eye of a user, a control unit configured to play content data and control the image presentation unit to present an image obtained by playing the content data, a power supply management unit configured to manage supply and cutoff of power to the image presentation unit, and a detection unit configured to detect a segmentation point of content indicated by the content data played by the control unit. The control unit is configured to stop playing the content data in response to the detection unit detecting the segmentation point. The power supply management unit is configured to cut off the power supplied to the image presentation unit in response to the detection unit detecting the segmentation point. | 09-22-2011 |
20130207991 | WEARABLE DISPLAYS METHODS, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIA FOR DETERMINING DISPLAY CONDITIONS - A wearable display includes processors and a memory. The memory stores computer-readable instructions therein. When executed by the processors, the instructions instruct the processors to perform certain processes. The instructions instruct the processors to obtain a color level of an environment external to the wearable display. The instructions instruct the processors to determine a quantity of display colors based on the color level. The instructions instruct the processors to control a display device to display an image using a number of display colors equal to the quantity of display colors determined based on the color level. The image includes display objects. Each of the display objects is displayed in at least one of the display colors. | 08-15-2013 |
