IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17876732 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an image processing apparatus that applies a metal representation to a target region in an image. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The image processing apparatus has a setting unit that sets a target region in an image.
- A first acquisition unit acquires multiple texture data for applying a metal representation on the image.
- A second acquisition unit acquires an output condition for outputting the target region.
- A selection unit selects texture data based on the output condition.
- An application unit applies the selected texture data to the target region.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Graphic design and editing software that allows users to apply metal textures to specific regions of an image.
- Virtual reality or augmented reality applications that enhance the visual appearance of objects by applying metal textures.
- Industrial applications where metal representations need to be applied to specific regions of images for analysis or simulation purposes.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Simplifies the process of applying metal representations to specific regions of an image.
- Provides a more efficient and accurate way of selecting texture data based on output conditions.
- Allows for precise control over the application of metal textures to target regions.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enables users to easily enhance the visual appeal of images by applying metal textures.
- Provides flexibility in selecting and applying different metal textures to target regions.
- Improves the efficiency and accuracy of applying metal representations to specific regions of an image.
Original Abstract Submitted
An image processing apparatus includes a setting unit configured to set a target region, a first acquisition unit configured to acquire a plurality of texture data for applying a metal representation on an image, a second acquisition unit configured to acquire an output condition when outputting the target region, a selection unit configured to select texture data based on the output condition, and an application unit configured to apply, to the target region, the texture data selected by the selection unit.
