Method and program for processing image and image processor

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image processing method, an image processor and an image processing program by which image processing can be efficiently applied to raw image data in a short period of time. SOLUTION: This image processor consists of an input-output interface 1, a control part 2, a storing part 3, a display part 4 and an operation part 5. The control part 2 includes a partial image extraction processing part 21 and a conversion processing part 22. The partial image extraction processing part 21 displays an image based on image data for display corresponding to the raw image data to be processed, inputted through the input-output interface 1 on the display part 4 to urge a user to designate an optional partial area. When the partial area is designated by an operation of the operation part 5, partial raw image data corresponding to the partial area is extracted. The conversion processing part 22 applies image conversion processing based on an image quality adjustment parameter inputted from the outside to the partial raw image data, and at that time, an image based on the partial image data subjected to image conversion is displayed on the display part 4.

Image signal processing unit

Abstract: An image signal processing unit is disclosed which comprises: a contour extraction processing circuit for extracting a contour part from an input image signal, a color signal conversion processing circuit for replacing color signals of the contour part with contour emphasizing color signals on the basis of an output signal from said contour extraction processing circuit, and an image conversion processing circuit for producing a contour emphasized image signal from the input image signal and an output signal from said color signal conversion processing circuit. The image signals input to the image signal processing unit are converted to image signals suitable for display or printing.

System and method for downloading image

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an image downloading system or the like which can satisfy various requests from users so as to correspond to mage collection/distribution operation and a service form, which can increase the effect of an image downloading operation and which can perform the downloading operation efficiently without a need of a change or the like in the system. SOLUTION: When a request about at least an image content and an image conversion is transmitted to a user-oriented content processing part 4 from an image display device 5, the part 4 selects a prescribed image conversion server from a plurality of image conversion downloading servers 3A, and a control program which corresponds to the server is downloaded to the device 5. On the basis of the program downloaded to the device 5, each server 3A performs the prescribed conversion of an image so as to be transmitted to the device 5, and the device 5 receives the image from each server 3A.

Shooting, formation, transmission and display method of road overall view image tape

Abstract: The method for shoot, formation, transmission and display of road panorama image tape includes the following steps: real-time reading out an image line from image series of camera and arranging it along the directinoal order of road to form road panorama image type; using image feature extraction and media filtering method to eliminate image twists and turns resulted from carrier vibration; cutting the road panorama image tape into several fragments and implementing digital series real time transmission on network; adopting image conversion method to implement side visual window display, forward display, circular view embedded display and panoramic image cylinder display; using road panorama image to create city street view image library and create city information system and virtual guide system on the network. It integrates the computer image, graphic, multimedia and network communicatino technology into one body, and possesses important application value.

Printer, printer host, printer system having the same and memory medium containing operating program for printer host

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a printed material easy to see for a dyschromatopsia congenita person SOLUTION: This printer or system comprises a conversion mode receiving section 58 that receives various conversion modes including a borderline emphasizing mode for adding a borderline at a changing section of colors in an image designated by image data 76, a pattern conversion mode for changing a pattern in a pattern region in the image which is hard to recognize for a dyschromatopsia congenita person and the like The printer or the system further comprises an image conversion section 65 that converts the image data stored in a journal file 61 so as to make the image designated by the image data to be a clear image easy to see corresponding to the conversion mode received by the conversion mode receiving section 58 and stores the converted image into the journal file 61
