INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18545367 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system that reduces power consumption of a video camera and a remote controller while improving operability. When there is no operation on the remote controller for a certain period of time, the transmission of the captured image from the video camera to the remote controller via Wi-Fi communication and displaying processing on the display unit of the remote controller are stopped. If there is no operation for a longer period, the Wi-Fi communication is interrupted. Valid operation unit information in each mode is displayed on the display unit of the remote controller.
- Reduction in power consumption of video camera and remote controller
- Improved operability through intelligent power management
- Automatic stopping of image transmission and display processing when no operation is detected
- Interruption of Wi-Fi communication after extended periods of inactivity
- Display of valid operation unit information in each mode
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various fields such as surveillance systems, photography, videography, and remote control devices.
Problems Solved
1. Power consumption optimization in video cameras and remote controllers 2. Enhanced user experience through improved operability and power management
Benefits
1. Extended battery life for video cameras and remote controllers 2. Reduced energy consumption and environmental impact 3. Simplified user interface with automatic power-saving features
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized power management technology can be integrated into consumer electronics, security systems, drones, and other devices that rely on remote controllers.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of motion sensors to detect user activity and adjust power settings accordingly. Another could be the implementation of sleep modes in electronic devices to conserve energy when not in use.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact the overall user experience?
The technology improves the user experience by extending battery life and simplifying operation. It ensures that the device is ready for use when needed while conserving power during periods of inactivity.
What are the potential limitations of this technology?
One potential limitation could be the reliance on Wi-Fi communication, which may not be suitable for all environments or applications. Additionally, the automatic power-saving features may not always align with user preferences or specific use cases.
Original Abstract Submitted
Reduction in power consumption of a video camera and a remote controller that displays a captured image of the video camera and improvement of operability are achieved. In a system including the video camera and the remote controller that displays a captured image of the video camera, when a period in which there is no operation on the operation unit of the remote controller reaches a first prescribed time, transmission of the captured image from the video camera to the remote controller via Wi-Fi communication and displaying processing on a display unit of the remote controller are stopped. Further, when a period in which there is no operation on the operation unit of the remote controller reaches a second prescribed time, the Wi-Fi communication is interrupted. Valid operation unit information in each mode is displayed on the display unit of the remote controller.
