An endoscope system includes a light source apparatus to generate an illumination light including a first light in a red to near infrared region, a second light in a green region, and a third light in a blue region, an image pickup device to pick up an image of an object and output an image pickup signal, and a processor to generate a first to third color components corresponding to the first to third lights based on an image generated according to the image pickup signal. The processor generates two of three color components that are blue, green, and red included in an observation image by using a second color component, and generates one remaining color component by using a first color component, and generates respective color components of red, green, and blue included in a white light observation image by using the first to third color components.

Endoscope system and image processing method

A customer information registration apparatus includes: a matching unit configured to match face data of a customer based on image data acquired by a camera in a shop against face data stored in a storage unit; a storing unit configured to store face data which is not stored in the storage unit into the storage unit in a case where the matching by the matching unit fails; a behavior information acquisition unit configured to acquire behavior information according to a behavior in the shop of the customer; a condition determination unit configured to determine whether or not to delete the face data stored in the storage unit based on the behavior information acquired by the behavior information acquisition unit; and a deletion unit configured to delete the face data stored in the storage unit based on a result of the determination by the condition determination unit are provided.

Customer information registration apparatus

A matching unit configured to match face data of a customer based on image data acquired by a camera in a shop against face data stored in a storage unit, a behavior information acquisition unit configured to acquire behavior information according to a behavior of the customer in the shop, and a condition determination unit configured to determine whether or not to store the face data into the storage unit based on the behavior information acquired by the behavior information acquisition unit in a case where the matching fails are provided.

Provided are a reception apparatus, a reception system, a reception method, and a storage medium that can naturally provide a personal conversation in accordance with a user without requiring the user to register the personal information thereof in advance. A disclosure includes a face information acquisition unit that acquires face information of a user; a face matching unit that matches, against face information of one user, the face information registered in a user information database in which user information including the face information of the user and the reception information is registered; and a user information management unit that, when a result of matching of the face information performed by the face matching unit is unmatched, registers the user information of the one user to the user information database.
