20080222462 | IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, DETERMINATION DEVICE, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - An object of the present invention is to provide an image forming system, an image processing apparatus, a determination device, and image processing method that are capable of preventing users' convenience from reducing even when an image forming apparatus prints a coded image with a low print precision. A first MFP is connected through a LAN to a second MFP for performing error-correcting coding of original information, for creating a coded image by imaging the original information with the error-correcting code, and for forming the created coded image on a sheet. The first MFP extracts the original information from the coded image on the sheet obtained by reading the sheet on which the coded image is formed. Thereafter, the first MFP transmits to the second MFP an error detection rate at the time when the original information is extracted. | 09-11-2008 |
20090067863 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, PROGRAM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus equipped with an image forming unit capable of image formation using color toner and transparent toner includes, a determining unit adapted to determine whether each pixel of image data belongs to an image region or a text region; a control unit adapted to control the image forming unit by switching between transfer of a toner image to the image region and transfer of a toner image to the text region; a fixing unit adapted to fix the toner image formed on recording material; and a transport unit adapted to discharge the recording material on which the toner image is fixed or re-feed the recording material to the image forming unit. | 03-12-2009 |

20150022293 | ELECTROMAGNETIC CONTACTOR - The electromagnetic contactor includes a contact device having a pair of fixed contacts disposed to maintain a predetermined distance and a movable contact disposed so as to be attachable to and detachable from the pair of fixed contacts; an electromagnet unit having a movable plunger that moves the movable contact of the contact device; a hermetic chamber enclosing the pair of fixed contacts, the movable contact, and the movable plunger; an external receptacle that covers the hermetic chamber and electromagnet unit; and a sound insulating resin layer injected and hardened between the hermetic chamber and external receptacle. The electromagnetic contactor reduces the height of a contact device, and thus reduces a size of the electromagnetic contactor, while suppressing electromagnetic repulsion force generated between a movable contact and fixed contacts. | 01-22-2015 |
20150022295 | ELECTROMAGNETIC CONTACTOR - The electromagnetic contactor includes a contact mechanism including a pair of fixed contacts disposed to maintain a predetermined interval and a movable contact disposed so as to connect to and separate from the pair of fixed contacts, and an electromagnet unit that drives the movable contact. The electromagnet unit includes a magnetic yoke enclosing a plunger drive portion, a movable plunger, a leading end thereof protruding through an aperture formed in the magnetic yoke and a peripheral flange portion being formed on a protruding end side, movement regulating portions that regulate movement of the peripheral flange portion of the movable plunger in an engaged position and released position of the contact mechanism, and a contact noise suppression member that suppresses contact noise when the peripheral flange portion of the movable plunger contacts the movement regulating portions. | 01-22-2015 |
20150213986 | ELECTROMAGNETIC SWITCH - An electromagnetic switch includes a pair of fixed contacts disposed and fixed in a contact housing case with a predetermined distance therebetween; a movable contact disposed in the contact housing case so as to contact and separate from the pair of fixed contacts; and an electromagnet unit which brings the movable contact into and out of contact with the pair of fixed contacts. The electromagnet unit has a magnetic yoke enclosing an exciting coil, a movable plunger having a contact pole surface facing the contact pole surface of the magnetic yoke, and a linking shaft which links the movable plunger and the movable contact, and magnetic paths through which a holding force is generated by external magnetic fluxes generated by a flowing current when the movable contact contacts the pair of fixed contacts, are formed on the contact pole surface of the magnetic yoke. | 07-30-2015 |

20120026284 | IMAGING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR - The present invention relates to an imaging apparatus capable of shifting to a panoramic shooting function based on a user's intention without performing a complicated setting operation. In a digital camera, when a zoom operation member is operated again to a wide-angle side within a predetermined length of time after the zoom operation member has been operated to the wide-angle end, the process shifts to the panoramic shooting mode. | 02-02-2012 |
20140253760 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - Conventionally, on a subject in which range, refocus can be performed at the time of image capturing or at the time of editing an image is not specified clearly, and therefore, it is difficult for a user to capture an image or to edit an image in a manner the user intends. An image processing apparatus has an acquisition unit configured to acquire an image including a plurality of subject areas and distance information corresponding to the plurality of subject areas and a generation unit configured to generate a shifted image in which positions of the plurality of subject areas are shifted in the image based on the distance information. | 09-11-2014 |
20150253951 | IMAGING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A GUI member is operated to let a user feel as if operation of a real object is realized. An imaging unit captures fingers of an operator. A system control unit detects the finger portion from the image captured by the imaging unit. The system control unit combines images in such a manner that the GUI member is positioned on a finger portion of a palm side and a finger portion of a back side is positioned on the GUI member from the image of the finger portions detected from the captured image, and displays the combined image on a display unit. | 09-10-2015 |
