A display system includes an HMD and a PC. The HMD displays an image on a scene in a real space in an overlapped manner. The PC includes a first control unit. The first control unit causes the HMD to display a guide image indicating a direction set based on a robot to correspond to a robot arranged in the real space. On a tool of the robot, a tool coordinate system is set based on the tool. The first control unit displays the guide image indicating the tool coordinate system in accordance with a direction of the tool. The guide image includes an X-axis image, a Y-axis image, and a Z-axis image.

An endoscope operation support system includes: an image display unit which, transmits external scenery and allows the user to visually recognize the external scenery, and also displays a virtual image as superimposed on the external scenery and allows the user to visually recognize the virtual image; a control unit which controls the image display unit; an endoscope unit having an image pickup unit at a distal end part inserted in an image pickup target part of an object, the image pickup unit picking up an image inside the image pickup target part; and a position detection unit which detects a position of the distal end part. The control unit causes the image display unit to display a position display image including a pointer image indicating the position of the distal end part detected by the position detection unit, as the virtual image superimposed on the object in the external scenery.

Endoscope operation support system

In a display system, a projector detects an operation, generates guide information indicating the detected operation, and transmits the guide information to an HMD, and the HMD receives the guide information transmitted from the projector and displays an image corresponding to the operation of the projector and an image indicating a point of view or line-of-sight direction of an operator carrying out the operation, on the basis of the guide information.

Display system, display device, information display method, and program

A head-mounted display device with which a user can visually recognize a virtual image and an outside scene includes an image display unit configured to cause the user to visually recognize the virtual image, an augmented-reality processing unit configured to cause the image display unit to form the virtual image including a virtual object, at least a part of which is superimposed and displayed on a real object present in the real world, a color detecting unit configured to detect a real object color, which is a color of the real object, and a color adjusting unit configured to bring a visual observation color, which is a color obtained by superimposing a color of the virtual object on the real object color, close to a target color using the detected real object color.

Head-mounted display device, method of controlling head-mounted display device, and computer program

In a head-mounted display device equipped with a display section, through which an external world can visually be recognized, the head-mounted display device includes a superimposition image display control section adapted to make the display section display a predetermined image so as to be superimposed on the external world to visually be recognized in a see-through manner, an imaging section adapted to capture an image of at least a predetermined range out of the external world visually recognized in a see-through manner, a partial image determination section adapted to determine a partial image of a predetermined range, which corresponds in position to the predetermined image, out of the captured image obtained by the imaging section, and a visibility correction section adapted to correct visibility of the predetermined image displayed by the superimposition image display control section in accordance with color information related to the partial image determined.

A printing apparatus includes: a transport unit that has a transport roller which transports a medium; a detection unit that has an image acquiring section which acquires an image of the medium and that detects a transport amount of the medium based on the image acquired by the image acquiring section; and a control unit that controls the transport unit based on a detection amount which is the transport amount detected by the detection unit. The control unit calculates a correction amount with which the transport amount of the medium is corrected, based on the detection amount. When the detection amount is an abnormal value, the transport unit is controlled based on the correction amount obtained before the detection amount becomes the abnormal value.

An image processing apparatus, includes: a transforming area setter, operable to set at least a part of an area of a target image as a transforming area; a transforming area divider, operable to arrange a plurality of dividing points in the transforming area and to divide the transforming area into a plurality of small areas by using a line connecting the dividing points; and a transforming processor, operable to move a position of at least one of the dividing points to transform at least one of the small areas, thereby transforming an image in the transforming area.

Image processing apparatus and image processing method

With a printing device in which a printing medium is moved relatively, and which prints on the printing medium, the surface of the medium is illuminated, a plurality of illuminated regions of the medium moving in this illuminated state are imaged to acquire a plurality of images. A region to be matched having a characteristic region within a first image is set out of the images, a similar region having the highest similarity to the characteristic region is determined within a second image that is different from the first image. The estimated movement amount of the medium is calculated from the positional relation between the region to be matched and the similar region. Error information indicating error in the estimated movement amount of the medium attributable to the angle of light directed at the medium is acquired, and the estimated movement amount is corrected.

An image processing device that executes deformation of an image. A candidate area setting unit sets candidate areas, each of which includes a specific image, on a target image used as a target for a deformation process. An exclusion determination unit, when there is a candidate area that partially extends off a cropped image that is clipped from the target image through predetermined cropping, excludes the candidate area, which at least partially extends off the cropped image, from the target for the deformation process. A deformation processing unit performs deformation of an image on the candidate areas other than the excluded candidate areas.
