IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE, IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18663699 titled 'IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE, IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

The abstract describes an image display device that acquires a first image, a second image, and position information of a subject in the first image. The device displays the second image on a display screen and superimposes measurement information obtained from the subject onto the second image at a corresponding position.

  • Acquisition unit gathers first image, second image, and first position information.
  • Display unit showcases second image on display device.
  • Determination unit identifies second position corresponding to first position in second image.
  • Display unit overlays measurement information from first position onto second image at second position.
  • Technology allows for accurate measurement and display of information on images.

Potential Applications: - Medical imaging for precise measurements and analysis. - Augmented reality applications for interactive displays. - Forensic analysis for detailed examination of evidence.

Problems Solved: - Ensures accurate alignment of measurement information on different images. - Facilitates easy comparison and analysis of data. - Enhances visualization of information for various applications.

Benefits: - Improved accuracy in measurements. - Enhanced visualization capabilities. - Streamlined analysis processes.

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Image Display Device for Medical and AR Applications This technology can be utilized in medical imaging systems, AR devices, and forensic analysis tools. It has the potential to revolutionize how measurements are displayed and analyzed in various industries, leading to more efficient processes and accurate results.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the accuracy of measurements in medical imaging? 2. What are the potential implications of using this device in forensic analysis?


Original Abstract Submitted

An image display device includes: acquisition unit for acquiring a first image, a second image, and first position information regarding a first position at which a subject in the first image is measured; display unit for displaying the second image on a display device; and determination unit for determining a second position corresponding to the first position in the second image. The display unit displays and superimposes first measurement information obtained by measuring a subject at the first position on the first image at the second position on the second image.
