An image processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires setting information acquired from a captured image, a setting unit that performs, based on the acquired setting information, setting regarding image analysis processing to be performed on a captured image obtained by capturing an image of a predetermined monitoring target range.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and image processing system

In externally uploading data to a storage device in a network, the process for the storage device is controlled in accordance with the state in the network. This invention provides a control apparatus which controls a process for a storage device in externally uploading data to the storage device by communicating with the network to which the storage device and a remote access server are connected. The control apparatus receives an event transmitted from the storage device when it is accessed, calculates the process load of the storage device, and instructs the remote access server to limit the transfer amount of data to the storage device when the calculated process load is larger than a predetermined threshold value.

Control apparatus and control method

When an incoming call to a wireless communication apparatus is detected, a wireless control apparatus uses a wireless link, which has been established by previous communication, to perform succeeding communication. Examples of communication include communication of audio or data already completed, or, when there are a plurality of wireless communication apparatus, communication of control information by a wireless link established when notification of an incoming call is given to the wireless communication apparatus.

Wireless communication apparatus and system

A control method of a second terminal which communicates with a partner of a communication by a first terminal. Fee information to calculate a fee per unit time of the communication by the first terminal is obtained. The fee information obtained is transmitted via a radio line to the second terminal which communicates with the partner of the communication by the first terminal. The fee information transmitted is received and the speech fee is calculated and displayed. The communication by the first terminal is held is subsequently restarted by a request from the second terminal.

Speech fee display method

A communication system having a radio master and a radio slave for communicating a communication signal and a control signal via a common channel is constructed by a receiver to receive a communication signal, a transmitter to transmit a control signal, and a limiter to limit an output of the signal received by the receiver for a period of time corresponding to a transmission of the control signal and a reception of a predetermined signal by the receiver. The limiter has a key to request the transmission of the control signal and limits the output of the reception signal in accordance with the key operation. The generation of an uncomfortable sound which is caused by a communication of the control signal can be prevented.
