TL;DR: In this article, a display image generating block generates the display image in an image format according to device information acquired by the device information acquiring block, which allows the image to be displayed on a stereoscopic display device regardless of the stereoscopic image format of the display device.
Abstract: An image display control system includes a display image generating block for generating a display image from three-dimensional image data and also includes a device information acquiring block for acquiring device information associated with a display device. The display image generating block generates the display image in an image format according to device information acquired by the device information acquiring block thereby allowing the image to be displayed on a stereoscopic display device regardless of the stereoscopic image format of the display device.

TL;DR: In this article, the system synchronizes, displays, and manipulates text and image documents in electronic form for display, where text and images are synchronized to produce equivalent files to create an approximate equivalence relationship between the text and the image files.
Abstract: The system synchronizes, displays, and manipulates text and image documents in electronic form for display. The text and image files are synchronized to produce Equivalent Files to create an approximate equivalence relationship between the text and the image files. The graphic user interface of the present system allows a user to selectively view an Equivalent File in a window while simultaneously or alternatively viewing an image file within one or more image windows on the display. The user may also create and manipulate notes and subnotes as annotations to document objects or document portions. The notes and subnotes may be linked to text documents, image documents, text objects, or other non-text objects or documents, such as images, audio clips, etc. The user may create new subnotes associated with selected objects or selected portions, and the user may enter information pertaining to the selected objects in the new subnote. The new subnotes may be created in a particular notes window, or if a note window is not open at the time that the user selects an object or document portion, a new note may be created in response to the selected object. The notes and subnotes may be stored in a note database.

27 Jan 2004TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a technique that specifies the original document file corresponding to the document to be copied using the document identifier such as a two-dimensional barcode, and registers the unregistered document with vectorization process so as to suppress image quality deterioration in early stage.
Abstract: The present invention provides the technique that specifies the original document file corresponding to the document to be copied using the document identifier such as a two-dimensional barcode, prints the document without losing image quality using the original document file, and registers the unregistered document with vectorization process so as to suppress image quality deterioration in an early stage.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method and apparatus to display an image during a transition of an operating system in a computer system, where an image having an image format compatible with the operating system is obtained.
Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus to display an image during a transition of an operating system in a computer system. An image having an image format compatible with the operating system is obtained. Content of a system file corresponding to the transition of the operating system is created using the image in a system directory.

TL;DR: The PNG format provides a network-friendly, patent-free, lossless compression scheme that is truly cross-platform and has many new features that are useful for multimedia and Web-based radiologic teaching.
Abstract: Despite the rapid growth of the Internet for storage and display of World Wide Web-based teaching files, the available image file formats have remained relatively limited. The recently developed portable networks graphics (PNG) format is versatile and offers several advantages over the older Internet standard image file formats that make it an attractive option for digital teaching files. With the PNG format, it is possible to repeatedly open, edit, and save files with lossless compression along with gamma and chromicity correction. The two-dimensional interlacing capabilities of PNG allow an image to fill in from top to bottom and from right to left, making retrieval faster than with other formats. In addition, images can be viewed closer to the original settings, and metadata (ie, information about data) can be incorporated into files. The PNG format provides a network-friendly, patent-free, lossless compression scheme that is truly cross-platform and has many new features that are useful for multimedia and Web-based radiologic teaching. The widespread acceptance of PNG by the World Wide Web Consortium and by the most popular Web browsers and graphic manipulation software companies suggests an expanding role in the future of multimedia teaching file development.
