A system for distributing data that represents and can be converted into a physical object such as a printed photograph or three-dimensional '3D printed' object provides a variety of user controls to direct the flow of data and restrict the use of consumable supplies.

Distributed printing social network

A system for selecting, managing, sharing and displaying content data files in a manner that takes into the account the contextual significance of said content data files to a narrative, an author(s) and an audience. A system that is able to place an absolute and relative value upon the significance of a media object is able to assist in stimulating the recollection of the author and audience, thus making every aspect more memorable and enhancing by improving the ease of use and the quality of the final result of the use of the system of this invention.

System and method for generating a work of communication with supplemental context

A method for display of stereoscopic images defines at least first and second unequal subsets of viewers and provides at least the first subset of viewers with a first decoding device for viewing displayed stereoscopic images. From a single display apparatus, separate images are displayed for each eye of at least the first and second subsets of viewers in a repeated sequence of displaying the image for the first eye of all viewers during a first time interval; displaying the image for the second eye of the first subset of viewers during a second time interval; and displaying the image for the second eye of the second subset of viewers during a third time interval. The first, second, and third time intervals are non-overlapping.

An image capture package, such as a one-time use camera, has a capture member bearing an encodement for an image transmogrification. The capture member captures images free of the image transmogrification. The image capture package has a sighting guide associated with the capture member. The sighting guide identifies a region of the captured images that is subject to the image transmogrification. A photography system includes a plurality of the image capture packages and a processing system that digitally modifies the captured images responsive to respective encodements.

A method of determining and correcting for eye color defects in an image due to flash illumination includes determining whether an eye color defect group candidate corresponds to a defective eye base based on group shape, coloration and brightness.

Automated detection and correction of eye color defects due to flash

Locations of respective image frames contained on an image recording, such as a continuous color photographic film strip scanned by digitizing opto-electronic scanner are identified by storing scanline data produced by the scanner in a digital database, and processing the stored scanline data in accordance with set of image frame identification operators, which iteratively identify locations of nominally valid frames, beginning with the identification of all well formed frames. Each well formed frame has prescribed image frame attributes including at least a spatial region of image modulance bounded by leading and trailing edges adjacent to Dmin interframe gaps. The iterative identification procedure includes `chopping` less than well formed frames, sorting frame regions based upon geometry considerations and identifying and adjusting the size of oversized and undersize frames. To reduce computational complexity a set of image frame-based `predictors` and an associated set of thresholds are used in the iterative search and sort process.

Iterative predictor-based detection of image frame locations

In an electronic color printing process in which an array of multicolor images from a filmstrip is reproduced on print receiver sheets or alternative storage media from color information signals representing a plurality of sets of color separation image information, producing prints from the array of multicolor images. Such print production, comprises prescanning, at low resolution, an array of different multicolor images contained on a filmstrip. Information data, obtained during the prescan, of scene content of the respective image frames, and additional information data of at least one of where frames of the army are located in the filmstrip, what type of filmstrip is being scanned, and what are the conditions of each frame, is stored. Look-up-tables based on the stored information data are defined, and the stored information data is processed with the defined look-up-tables to produce prints of the army of multicolor images.

Generation of prints from an array of images and information relative to

In a color photographic printer of the type having a film scanner having a 50% green spectral response between 522.+-.5 nm and 570.+-.2.5 nm and peaking at 550 nm, a lowpass cutoff filter for lowering the upper cutoff wavelength of the green channel response is added to the green channel to improve the color correction of the printer for all color films presently in use.
