A workflow control device includes a workflow management processing portion, a clumsiness detection processing portion, and a display processing portion. The workflow management processing portion manages a workflow for combining processes corresponding to specific operations on an electronic apparatus, in a specific order and performing execution instructions for the processes. The clumsiness detection processing portion detects clumsiness in an operation which has been performed by a user on the electronic apparatus and delayed from a threshold. The display processing portion causes an order of processes based on a workflow through which execution instructions for processes corresponding to operations of the user can be performed in order, to be displayed on a screen based on detection of the clumsiness.

Workflow control device and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein workflow control program for controlling workflow regarding operation on electronic apparatus

Provided is an electronic device, including: a display unit that displays, on one screen, a plurality of objects to be selected by a user; a line-of-sight detection unit that detects visually-recognized coordinates on the display unit to which the user's line-of-sight is directed; an object visually-recognized time period calculation unit that calculates a time period during which the visually-recognized coordinates detected by the line-of-sight detection unit fall within a range of the object; and a selection exclusion unit that excludes the object from candidates to be selected by the user if the time period calculated by the object visually-recognized time period calculation unit is longer than a time period threshold value and a frequency at which the object is selected is higher than a frequency threshold value.

Electronic device that displays an operation screen including an object

An approval device includes a storage circuit, a document acquiring circuit, an imaging circuit, a face recognition circuit, an approval circuit and an editing circuit. The storage circuit stores a face image database, the face image database registering face image data of at least one user to be an approver for approving a document. The document acquiring circuit acquires the document. The imaging circuit images a face of the approver for approving the document. The face recognition circuit analyzes an imaged face image of the approver and searches the face image database stored in the storage circuit using the analysis result. The approval circuit approves the document based on the search result. The editing circuit attaches one of an electronic stamp and an electronic signature to the approved document.

Approval device, approval system, and recording medium that ensure simplified approval operation of electronic document

An electronic device includes a sound output circuit, a notification sound control circuit, and a stop instruction accepting circuit. The sound output circuit outputs a sound. The notification sound control circuit controls a notification sound output by the sound output circuit. The stop instruction accepting circuit accepts a stop instruction of the notification sound. The notification sound control circuit increases frequency of the notification sound in phases as time elapses when the notification sound is output by the sound output circuit, and stops the notification sound output by the sound output circuit when the instruction is accepted by the stop instruction accepting circuit.

Electronic device that outputs easily recognizable notification sound and recording medium

An electronic device includes a touch panel that detects operation point coordinates of touch input by a user and a line-of-sight detection section that calculates the coordinates of a gaze point on the touch panel at which a line of sight of the user is directed in a specific time range from a time point of the touch input on the touch panel by the user. The electronic device further includes a line-of-sight correction area calculation section that calculates a line-of-sight correction area in a specific range from the coordinates of the gaze point on the touch panel. The electronic device also includes an operation coordinate line-of-sight correction section that a) changes the operation point coordinates to the coordinates of the gaze point if the operation point coordinates are within the line-of-sight correction area; and b) does not change the operation point coordinates if the operation point coordinates are not within the line-of-sight correction area.

Electronic device, method, and program for supporting touch panel operation

Provided is an image processing apparatus including: a grouping preference unit configured to register user preference information on a storage device based on a user operation, the user preference information indicating how objects within an image are to be classified into groups; an image analysis unit configured to detect the objects within the image; and a grouping unit configured to read the user preference information from the storage device and classify the objects detected within the image into the groups indicated in the read user preference information.

Image processing apparatus that groups objects within image

An image processing apparatus includes an image reading unit configured to read information as image data, a character recognition unit configured to recognize individual characters included in the image data, a grouping unit configured to group the individual characters recognized into one or more character string based on character information indicating a format of the character, a character extraction unit configured to extract a character string for which a link is to be created based on an importance of the character string obtained by the grouping, a character search unit configured to search the image data in which the characters have been recognized for the character string having the same character base among the character strings extracted, and a link setting unit configured to link the character strings having the same character base that are retrieved to each other based on the importance.
