A computer-implemented detection method includes, in response to inputting a first image including a region of one or more objects to a learned model, identifying a first entire image corresponding to entirety of a first object as a detection candidate, the learned model being generated by learning training data including an image corresponding to a part of an object and an entire image corresponding to entirety of the object, detecting an existing region of the first target object in the first image in accordance with a comparison between the identified first entire image and the region of the one or more target objects, and determining, based on a specific image obtained by invalidating the existing region in the first image, whether another target object is included in the first image.

Detection method and detection device

The procedure includes generating an image to represent a photographing range including at least a part of a range irradiated by light emitted from a light source, information to be transmitted being superimposed on the light, specifying a region where the information is decoded, on the image, and discriminating which of the light source and an object reflecting the light is photographed in the region, based on a similarity between a color of the region and a color of the light emitted from the light source.

Discrimination method and communication system

A detecting device divides image data into a plurality of areas, wherein the image data is projected by a projecting device and the image data has a plurality of sets of watermark information, in each of which frequency and amplitude are constant and in each of which phase is reversed depending on whether first-type information or second-type information is indicated, and the plurality of sets of watermark information are embedded in the image data in a synchronized manner. The detecting device extracts amplitude of the watermark information included in the areas and identifies, as a target area for extraction, successive areas in which the extracted amplitude of the watermark information is constant. The detecting device extracts the watermark information which is overlapping in the target area for extraction.

Digital watermark information detecting device and digital watermark information detecting method

A transmitter includes a light source which enables changing the characteristic of light, on a time-series basis, and a controller which sets a predetermined duration for a symbol included in information to be transmitted and controls the light source to change the characteristic of the light emitted by the light source, on a time-series basis in accordance with a value of the symbol in the duration. A receiver includes a camera which generates a plurality of images each recording an image capturing range including at least a part of an area irradiated with the light from the transmitter, with a predetermined image capturing period, and a processor configured to extract a feature amount representing the characteristic of the light, from each of the plurality of images, and decode the value of the symbol from a time-series change in the feature amount.

Transmitter, receiver, communication system, and transmission and reception methods

A reproduction device is configured to receive light emitted based on a plurality of signals having a specific amplitude in a specific color space on which information is superimposed, and to reproduce the information based on the received light. The reproduction device includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: generate a plurality of signals in the specific color space from the received light, correct the generated plurality of signals based on the specific amplitude, and acquire the information based on the corrected plurality of signals.

Reproduction device, method, storage medium, and system

A memory stores video information obtained by photographing an object that reflects light in which embedded information is superimposed onto a plurality of components in a color space. A processor emphasizes a signal obtained from an image included in the video information on the basis of a result of emphasizing a first color component more than a second color component according to a spectral reflection characteristic in a range including the object, and detects the embedded information from the emphasized signal, the first color component and the second color component being from among a plurality of color components that correspond to a plurality of wavelengths, the first color component having a reflectance higher than a reflectance of the second color component. A display device outputs information on the basis of the embedded information detected by the processor.
