摘要： An attention detection system detects a condition of shared attention of plural persons. The system includes plural body language detectors each associated with a different person for detecting body language of the associated person. An analyzer receives body language information from the body language detectors, analyzes the body language of the persons and determines when said body language information indicates shared attention between the persons. The attention detection system generates a signal that captures an image of the shared attention.

摘要： The present invention relates to the use of an image capture system having an electronic camera for platenless document imaging. The system comprises: an electronic camera with an electronic detector and a lens with a field of view for imaging on the detector a portion of a document; a support by which the camera can be positioned to view the document; an actuator for moving the camera field of view so that a plurality of overlapping image tiles of a document can be captured at predetermined different locations over the support surface, each image tile having an array of tile data points and being subject to some expected perspective and/or camera distortion relative to the support surface; and a processor by which the plurality of image tiles may be joined into a composite image of the document. The processor includes a memory which stores transform data for each image tile, the transform data relating both to the expected distortion and to the predetermined overlap between image tiles. The processor is adapted to use the transform data to generate from the tile data points a corrected array of tile data points with the distortion corrected and with the corrected image tiles correctly overlapped to form a composite image of the document.

摘要： A computer system 1 comprises a processor 3 connected to a memory 5. The processor 3 receives image data, representing a displayable static photograph, through an input port 7, generates a set of video data by means of an application program 11 and outputs the video data to a display 9. The video data generated by the application program 11 provides a displayable video programme representing a displayable moving viewpoint over the static photograph. The application program 11 initially analysis the displayable content of the photograph and identifies characteristics, such as regions of interest or dominant lines, curves or edges, and depending on the characteristics, identifies the photograph as belonging to a particular image class. The video data is generated in accordance with rules for that particular image class.
