DISPLAY CONTROL APPARATUS, DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18607610 titled 'DISPLAY CONTROL APPARATUS, DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a display control apparatus that generates a user interface image showing a system with multiple image capturing apparatuses, distinguishing those that work together from those that do not.

  • Information displayed on the user interface image indicates the cooperative operation of at least two image capturing apparatuses in a different form than those that do not cooperate.
  • The apparatus controls the display to show this distinction clearly to the user.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • User interface image distinguishes between cooperating and non-cooperating image capturing apparatuses.
  • Control mechanism ensures clear display of this information to the user.

Potential Applications:

  • Surveillance systems
  • Photography studios
  • Video conferencing setups

Problems Solved:

  • Confusion regarding which image capturing apparatuses are working together.
  • Streamlining user interface for better user experience.

Benefits:

  • Improved user understanding of system setup.
  • Enhanced efficiency in operating multiple image capturing apparatuses.

Commercial Applications:

  • "Display Control Apparatus for Multi-Image Capturing Systems": Potential for use in security systems, photography studios, and video conferencing setups.

Prior Art:

  • Further research can be conducted in the field of display control apparatuses for multi-image capturing systems to identify prior art related to this technology.

Frequently Updated Research:

  • Stay updated on advancements in display control technology for multi-image capturing systems to enhance the functionality and user experience.

Questions about Display Control Apparatus for Multi-Image Capturing Systems: 1. How does the apparatus differentiate between cooperating and non-cooperating image capturing apparatuses? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology in surveillance systems?


Original Abstract Submitted

A display control apparatus generates a user interface (UI) image indicating a system including a plurality of image capturing apparatuses, the image being displayed such that information indicating not less than two image capturing apparatuses, of the plurality of image capturing apparatuses, which perform a predetermined cooperative operation is different in a form from information indicating an image capturing apparatus, of the plurality of image capturing apparatuses, which does not perform the predetermined cooperative operation, and performs control to cause a display to display the image.
