The apparatus comprises an acquisition unit configured to, for a captured image acquired by capturing of an image capturing range that includes the target subject, acquire distance information indicating a distribution of a subject distance from an image capturing apparatus that performed the capturing and, at least, normal line information that indicates a normal line of a surface of the target subject; and a presentation unit configured to present a notification that indicates an image capturing direction of the image capturing apparatus for performing measurement of the predetermined item based on the normal line information acquired by the acquisition unit.

Measurement apparatus, image capturing apparatus, control method, and recording medium

The inkjet printing apparatus includes: a printing unit to eject ink; a wiping unit capable of wiping an ejection opening surface by moving relative to the ejection opening surface with an opening, adapted to be in contact with the ejection opening surface, put in contact with the ejection opening surface; a suction unit connected to the wiping unit and configured to apply negative pressure to the ejection opening surface via the opening; a moving unit to move the wiping unit relative to the ejection opening surface; and a control unit to perform suction wiping operation by wiping the ejection opening surface with the wiping unit while applying negative pressure to the ejection opening surface. The control unit determines the timing to perform the suction wiping operation, and, according to the timing, determines a moving speed of the moving unit and a pressure value caused by the suction unit.

Inkjet printing apparatus and recovery method

A management method according to an embodiment is a management method performed by a management server for managing a plurality of communication devices, and includes receiving information indicating at least one of a position or acceleration detected by each of the plurality of communication devices, and managing a position information list including installation position information for each communication device based on the information received. The managing includes, in a case that a collection mode for collecting at least one of the plurality of communication devices is configured, in response to determining that a target communication device for the collection mode has moved, updating the position information list to delete the installation position information corresponding to the target communication device, and in response to determining that the target communication device has been stationary after moving, keeping the position information list without updating the position information list.

Management server, communication device, and communication method

The image pickup apparatus of the present invention sets at least an imaging magnification of an optical system included in a second image pickup device or a sampling pitch of a signal in the second image pickup device; calculates, using image data of a plurality of frames captured by second image pickup device during exposure of first image pickup device for image data of a first frame, the amount of subject motion in the image data of the plurality of frames; and controls the exposure of the first image pickup device for the image data of the first frame, on the basis of the calculated amount of subject motion.

Image pickup apparatus, control method of image pickup apparatus, and storage medium

According to one embodiment, a medical image diagnostic apparatus includes a gantry, a couch, a movable base, a screen, a reflecting plate, and a support body. The gantry has a bore formed therein and performs medical imaging. The couch is configured to move the table top along the central axis of the bore. The movable base is provided independently of the table top so as to be movable along the central axis of the bore. The screen is provided on the movable base. An image from a projector is projected on the screen. The reflecting plate reflects the image projected on the screen. The support body is provided on the movable base and supports the reflecting plate.

Medical image diagnostic apparatus and magnetic resonance imaging apparatus

Provided are a liquid ejection apparatus and a maintenance apparatus capable of suppressing unintended movement of a wiping unit. The maintenance apparatus includes: a wiping unit configured to wipe the ejection opening surface of a liquid ejection head in which ejection openings over a length corresponding to the width of a print medium are formed; and a lock member configured to restrict movement of the wiping unit from a position to which the wiping unit is evacuated from the ejection opening surface.

Liquid ejection apparatus and maintenance apparatus

To provide an inkjet printing apparatus that is capable of reducing a collision noise made by a roller and a tube during a suctioning operation, the position of the roller relative to the tube is changed between the suctioning operation and a stopped time.

Inkjet printing apparatus

There is provided an image processing apparatus. An obtaining unit obtains a distance map and a shot image, the distance map representing a distribution of information related to a distance in a depth direction of a shooting range using a distribution of distance values, the shot image corresponding to the shooting range. A first filter unit applies a first filter to the distance map. A second filter unit applies a second filter to the distance map to which the first filter has been applied. The first filter is a filter that reduces a distribution of distance values in a predetermined distance value range in the distance map. The second filter is a filter that changes a distance value of a target distance in the distance map using weighted averaging.

Image processing apparatus, image capturing apparatus, image processing method, and storage medium

An objective of the present invention is to provide an inkjet printing apparatus and an ink filling method capable of restraining a decrease in its availability. For that purpose, in a case where a predetermined negative pressure (determination pressure) is not reached within a predetermined time (determination time) in normal filling operation (first filling operation), it is assumed that a leakage occurs in a cap member, and second filling operation is performed.

Inkjet printing apparatus and ink filling method

A liquid ejection apparatus includes a cap member contacting an ejection opening surface of a liquid ejection unit and covering the ejection opening surface, and a drive motor configured to cause the ejection opening surface and the cap member to contact or separate from each other. Furthermore, the liquid ejection apparatus includes a negative pressure generation unit configured to bring a space surrounded by the ejection opening surface and the cap member into a negative pressure state, and a control unit configured to drive the negative pressure generation unit to bring the space into a negative pressure state under a separation instruction to separate the cap member and the liquid ejection unit, and subsequently cause the drive motor to separate the liquid ejection unit and the cap member.

Liquid ejection apparatus and control method for the liquid ejection apparatus where a liquid ejection unit and cap member are separated with a negative pressure state in a space therebetween under certain conditions

Provided is a confidence generation apparatus including: an acquisition unit configured to acquire a depth image signal which includes depth information representing a depth to an object in each of a plurality of pixels; and a generation unit configured to generate global confidence which represents confidence in a global region of the depth image signal. The generation unit includes: a first generation processing unit configured to generate local confidence which represents the confidence in the depth information in each of the plurality of pixels; a region division processing unit configured to divide the depth image signal into a plurality of regions based on the depth information; and a second generation processing unit configured to generate the global confidence in each of the plurality of regions based on the local confidence.
