20100026715 | Image Capture and Buffering in a Virtual World Using Situational Measurement Averages - A technique is disclosed for detecting photo opportunities within a virtual environment. In response to detecting a photo opportunity, images of the virtual environment may be captured from perspectives not limited to the user's viewport. A variety of physiological and virtual world parameters are measured to determine when to capture an image of a user interacting with the virtual environment. To improve the quality of images, these parameters may be individually weighted by factors specified by the user. Captured images may be stored in a temporary buffer space, possibly replacing older images. The user may view the buffer contents and select ideal images to move to a permanent gallery. The user's image selections can in turn be used to further improve the quality of future images. | 02-04-2010 |

20100026717 | HAIR IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD AND DISPLAY APPARATUS - A hair image display method comprises the steps of: selecting a hair area from a hair image; performing an edge detection on the hair area to calculate an edge image; performing representation processing on the edge image to calculate a representative value image; calculating direction differences between the edge image and the representative value image; and rendering the direction differences of respective pixels in color or grayscale to display a direction difference image, or rendering the correlation lengths of respective pixels in an edge direction image in color or grayscale to display a bundle width image, or determining the curvatures of the respective pixels in the edge direction image to form a curvature image. This makes it possible to display directions straying from a flow, bundles of hairs in the same flow, and the state of curls in hair styling clearly, and to facilitate evaluations of the hair styling. | 02-04-2010 |

The system includes a selection tool utilisable by a user to select at least one portion of at least one displayed image; and, a capture routine arranged to reproduce the selected portion. If the selection tool selects only a portion of one image, then the captured image is sourced from a secondary storage source and if the selection tool selects more than one portion of one image, then the captured image is sourced from a primary storage source. | 11-25-2010 |
20110164055 | Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Manipulating a Collection of Objects - A method includes: displaying a collection of objects; detecting a gesture made by a contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the gesture comprising a first movement of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface followed by a pause in movement of the contact followed by a second movement of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface; selecting a plurality of objects in the collection of objects in accordance with the first movement; and, after detecting the pause in movement of the contact, moving the selected plurality of objects away from unselected objects in the collection of objects in accordance with the second movement. | 07-07-2011 |
20120098861 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISPLAYING CONTACT INFORMATION BASED ON AN IMAGE EMBEDDED WITH CONTACT INFORMATION - A method and an apparatus for displaying contact information using an image including the contact information. The method includes displaying an image; detecting when a preset region of the image is selected; and displaying the contact information corresponding to the preset region of the image, when the preset region is selected. | 04-26-2012 |
20120249595 | AREA SELECTION FOR HAND HELD DEVICES WITH DISPLAY - Systems and methods for selecting an area from the virtual display of a hand held device with a touch screen display and a tilt and movement sensor are provided. View navigation during regular operation is performed by touch screen commands and tilt and movement gestures. During area selection operation, all touch screen commands that perform view navigation or links activation are suspended, limiting touch commands to perform only boundary corner selections. The virtual display may be navigated using the tilt and movement sensor during area selection operation. This eliminates unintended touch commands that may inadvertently change the display during the area selection. The user may perform accurate repositioning of corners or markers placed on the touch screen display by using touch control or tilt and movement gestures. The boundary of the selected area can be automatically adjusted to reduce the affect of unwanted truncation of contents. | 10-04-2012 |
20130113833 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RENDERING IMAGES IN A REMOTE WEB BROWSER - A processing device receives graphical output data from an application. The processing device generates, based on the graphical output data, at least one of an image or a drawing command that is formatted for an application programming interface (API) of a web browser. The processing device then transmits at least one of the image or the drawing command to a web browser instance executing on a remote client device, wherein the web browser instance is natively capable of rendering at least one of the image or the drawing command to a display on the remote client device. | 05-09-2013 |
20130120456 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SEARCHING, REPLACING AND MODIFYING EXPLICIT AND IMPLICIT SHAPE IN SKETCH-STYLE DRAWINGS OF VARIOUS STYLES - A computer method and apparatus for selecting and manipulating curvilinear shapes entered by a user is shown. The curvilinear shapes are represented within the computer using parameterized equations. The representation is reduced to maximal elements. The maximal elements are extended. Registration points of the extended maximal elements are then identified. Once the registration points and maximal elements are known, curvilinear shapes can be matched using those maximal elements and registration points. Therefore a user can create a sketch that looks like part of a drawing and the computer can find the corresponding section for the user and transform it. | 05-16-2013 |
20130127910 | Drawing Support Tool - A graphical user interface displays a shape. Further, a buffer region that is adjacent to an edge of the shape is displayed at the graphical user interface. In addition, a set of drawing data located within the buffer region is received from a user input device. A first subset of the drawing data that is located in the buffer region at a predetermined distance from the edge and a second subset of the drawing data in the buffer region that is located at a distance from the edge that exceeds the predetermined distance are determined with a processor. Further, the first subset of drawing data is displayed. In addition, the second subset of drawing data is prevented from being displayed at the distance. The process also displays the second subset of drawing data at the predetermined distance. | 05-23-2013 |
