(Object) To provide an information display device, with a simple configuration, that is capable of reducing stress in perceiving information. (Means of Achieving the Object) The disclosed information display device irradiates a transparent-reflective member with light for forming an image, in order to display a virtual image of the image on the transparent-reflective member. The information display device includes: a plurality of light sources having different peak emission wavelengths, respectively, which are provided for generating the light for forming the image; a vision-related information input unit configured to receive an input of information relating to vision of a viewer viewing the virtual image; and a luminance adjusting unit configured to adjust luminance of each of the plurality of light sources, independently, based on the information input into the vision-related information input unit.

Information display device

An image display apparatus and a method of displaying an image. The image display apparatus includes an image-light projection device configured to display a display image, and a display controller configured to determine chromaticity coordinates of a display color of the display image based on data of a chromaticity coordinate area of background light such that the display color of the display image is set outside the chromaticity coordinate area of the background light. The method includes determining chromaticity coordinates of a display color of a display image based on data of a chromaticity coordinate area of background light such that the display color of the display image is set outside the chromaticity coordinate area of the background light.

Image display apparatus and image display method

An image processing apparatus utilization system includes image processing apparatuses; an apparatus search unit configured to search for the image processing apparatuses; a capability information obtaining unit configured to obtain scanning capability information from the image processing apparatuses; a delivery setting receiving unit configured to receive a delivery setting for a first image processing apparatus; a first scenario generation unit configured to generate a scenario including the scanning capability information and the delivery setting for the first image processing apparatus; a second scenario generation unit configured to generate scenarios for second image processing apparatuses based on the scenario for the first image processing apparatus; a scenario storing unit configured to store the scenarios generated by the first and second scenario generation units; and an image delivery unit configured to send image data received from one of the image processing apparatuses according to the delivery setting in the scenario.

Image processing apparatus utilization system and image processing apparatus utilization method for an image processing apparatus utilization system including image processing apparatuses, a scenario generation unit, a scenario storing unit, and an image delivery unit that are connected via a network

An image forming apparatus including an acquisition unit configured to acquire a plurality of combinations of document reading settings and delivery destination information of image data from a storage device configured to store the plurality of combinations, a reception unit configured to display the plurality of combinations acquired by the acquisition unit and receive a selection of the plurality of combinations by a user, a duplication identification unit configured to determine, upon the reception unit receiving the selection, whether the selected plurality of combinations contain duplicated delivery destination information, and a control unit configured to control, upon the duplication identification unit determining that the selected plurality of combinations selected contain the duplicated delivery destination information, a transmission of image data such that the image data is transmitted once to a delivery destination corresponding to the duplicated delivery destination information.

Image forming apparatus, image forming apparatus utilization system, and method for generating image data

An image processing apparatus stores an input image and an image ID for identifying the image in association with each other, stores a medium ID for identifying a recording medium on which the image is printed n, a unit ID for identifying a print unit having a plurality of recording media, and an image ID of an image included in the print unit in association with each another, detects a plurality of medium IDs from at lease one recording medium, obtains image IDs of all images included in the print unit identified by the unit ID associated with the medium ID, obtains images associated with obtained image IDs, and outputs obtained images.

Image processing apparatus including an input unit that receives plural images

An image forming apparatus reading documents based on a scenario and generating image data to transmit the image data with the scenario includes a scenario retrieving unit retrieving scenarios from a scenario storage device; a scenario reception unit receiving the retrieved scenarios; a plural scenario selection identification unit determining whether plural scenarios are received; a scenario destination acquisition unit acquiring, if the plural scenarios are received, delivery destination information from the received the plural scenarios; a duplicated scenario destination identification unit determining whether duplicated delivery destination information is in the acquired delivery destination information; a scenario processing unit carrying out, if the duplicated delivery destination information is contained, processing on one of the plural scenarios to create a processed scenario to transmit the image data once to a destination of the duplicated delivery destination information; and a scenario registration request unit storing the processed scenario in the scenario storage device.

A scanner unit reads a code image from a recording medium. A detecting unit detects a medium identification from the code image. An identification obtaining unit obtains image identifications of all images included in a print unit that is identified by a unit identification and a print condition corresponding to the medium identification, from an identification storing unit. An image obtaining unit obtains all images corresponding to the image identification from an image storing unit. A printing unit prints the image obtained by the image obtaining unit under the print condition obtained by the identification obtaining unit.

Image forming apparatus, image forming system, and image forming method

In an image forming apparatus, a first document manager stores image data in an image storage device, associates the image data with a first identifier, outputs the image data via an image output device when the first identifier is specified via an operation device, and deletes the image data from the image storage device when a first condition is satisfied. A second document manager associates the image data with a second identifier, outputs the second identifier via the image output device, and outputs the image data via the image output device when the second identifier is input via an image input device. The first document manager does not delete the image data from the image storage device and prohibits the operation device from specifying the first identifier when the image data is associated with both the first and second identifiers.
