The present invention provides a line-of-sight operation-apparatus, a method, and a medical device by which it is possible to appropriately determine whether a movement of a line-of-sight is intended by a user and to prevent the user from being forced to carry a burden. The line-of-sight operation-apparatus includes a display screen, a display control unit to display an icon having an animation-image on the display screen, a line-of-sight detection unit that detects a line-of-sight of a user, a following determination unit that determines, on the basis of a result of detection performed by the line-of-sight detection unit, whether a movement of the line-of-sight of the user follows a movement of the animation-image, and an output unit that outputs information indicating that the icon has been selected in the case where the following determination unit determines that the movement of the line-of-sight of the user follows the movement of the animation-image.

Line-of-sight operation apparatus, method, and medical device

An apparatus operation device includes a line-of-sight detecting unit that detects a line of sight of a user, a neck-mounted terminal that is mounted around a neck of the user and detects a motion of the neck of the user, a determining unit that determines, based on the line of sight that has been detected and the motion of the neck that has been detected, at least one of an electronic apparatus as a target apparatus to be operated or operation details, and an apparatus control unit that controls the electronic apparatus as the target apparatus in accordance with the determination.

Apparatus operation device, apparatus operation method, and electronic apparatus system

In an endoscope system according to an embodiment of the present invention, it is not necessary to touch an actual keyboard, mouse, or button to operate an endoscope apparatus, and thus it is not necessary to shift an instrument from one hand to the other hand or peel of/put on gloves in a medical setting. Accordingly, a necessary operation can be easily performed by using a line of sight and a gesture. In addition, it is not necessary to provide a keyboard, mouse, or button for operating the endoscope apparatus, and restrictions on the arrangement of the apparatus can be reduced. Furthermore, virtual objects corresponding to an apparatus to be operated and operation details are displayed in a pseudo manner, and thus the virtual object on which an operation is to be performed can be easily determined.

An image interpretation support apparatus includes a line-of-sight detecting unit that detects a line of sight of a person who reads the image, a gaze determining unit that determines, in accordance with a detection result obtained by the line-of-sight detecting unit, whether a candidate lesion portion in an image to be interpreted that is displayed on a display unit has been gazed at by the person who reads the image, a completion detecting unit that detects completion of image interpretation, by the person who reads the image, of the image to be interpreted that is displayed on the display unit, and a display control unit that, in a case where the completion detecting unit detects the completion of the image interpretation and the gaze determining unit determines that the candidate lesion portion has not been gazed at, switches from a first display state to a second display state.

Image interpretation support apparatus and method

A main display regionin which medical care data on a plurality of items is displayed is provided on the display screen. The main display regionmay be displayed in two display modes of a two-dimensional display mode and a three-dimensional display mode in which a two-dimensional plane on which time series data is displayed is three-dimensionally displayed using the laws of perspective. In the three-dimensional display mode, a summary window for displaying a summary of data content of the plurality of pieces of time series data at an arbitrary point in time designated on a time axis.

Time series data display control device, method for operating the same, program, and system

A main display regionin which medical care data on a plurality of items is displayed is provided on a display screen. The main display regionmay be displayed in two display modes of a two-dimensional display mode and a three-dimensional display mode in which a time scale is longer than a time axis of the two-dimensional display mode and a two-dimensional plane on which time series data is displayed is three-dimensionally displayed using the laws of perspective by which a plurality of straight lines parallel to the time axis in the two-dimensional display mode are drawn to be converged toward the past on the time axis.

Electronic camera

In an image pickup apparatus of the present invention, an image of an object is picked up and an image signal representing the object is continuously captured so that a through-the-lens image is displayed based on the captured image signal, and then a display area for displaying focusing information is composited into the through-the-lens image of a displaying device. In addition, based on the captured image signal, an automatic focus adjustment is performed to maximize the contrast of the object, and the result of the focus adjustment is detected. Based on the detected focusing condition, focusing information which is composited into the display area is changed. The focusing information includes at least focusing information of an unfocused condition and focusing information of a focused condition. This enables information that a desired area of an object became focused to be displayed to a user in a manner easy to understand.

Image pickup apparatus and focusing condition displaying method

A digital camera is provided with a special successive shooting mode wherein an imaging device makes a series of successive shots upon each shutter release operation, including at least a non-flash shot and at least a flash shot. When a shutter button is pressed halfway in the successive shooting mode, an exposure condition deciding device decides an exposure condition common to the non-flash and flash shots, or individual exposure conditions for the non-flash shot and the flash shot. When the shutter button is fully pressed, the imaging device starts the successive shots of one series. Images captured by the non-flash shot and the flash shot are displayed on an LCD panel. Before the imaging device starts the successive shots, necessary warning marks are displayed together with the exposure conditions decided by the exposure condition deciding device.
