IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR CONTROLLING IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18668798 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR CONTROLLING IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

The abstract describes an image processing apparatus that can adapt to different use environments by storing setting item groups and setting values associated with those environments.

  • The apparatus includes a storage unit for storing setting item groups for different use environments.
  • A reception unit receives user selections of use environments.
  • A setting unit adjusts the apparatus using setting values corresponding to the selected environment.
  • An output unit outputs the appropriate setting item group based on the selected use environment.
  • The setting item groups do not include all setting items used by the setting unit.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in various industries such as photography, graphic design, and medical imaging where different settings are required for different environments. - It can be used in consumer electronics like smartphones and cameras to enhance image processing capabilities based on user preferences.

Problems Solved: - Addresses the need for customizable image processing settings based on different use environments. - Streamlines the process of adjusting image processing parameters for optimal results.

Benefits: - Improved user experience by automatically adjusting settings based on selected environments. - Enhanced image processing quality and efficiency. - Increased flexibility and adaptability in various use cases.

Commercial Applications: Title: Adaptive Image Processing Apparatus for Diverse Environments This technology can be commercially utilized in the photography industry for professional photographers seeking efficient image processing solutions. It can also benefit consumer electronics companies looking to enhance the image processing capabilities of their products.

Questions about Adaptive Image Processing Apparatus for Diverse Environments: 1. How does this technology improve user experience in image processing? - This technology enhances user experience by automatically adjusting settings based on selected environments, simplifying the process for users. 2. What are the potential applications of this image processing apparatus in different industries? - This technology can be applied in photography, graphic design, medical imaging, and consumer electronics to optimize image processing based on specific use environments.


Original Abstract Submitted

An image processing apparatus includes a storage unit that stores a first and a second setting item group in association with a first and a second use environment, respectively, included in a plurality of use environments, a reception unit that receives a selection regarding the plurality of use environments from a user, a setting unit that sets the image processing apparatus using a plurality of setting values corresponding to a use environment identified by the selection, and an output unit that outputs the first setting item group in a case where the use environment is the first use environment, and outputs the second setting item group in a case where the use environment is the second use environment, wherein a plurality of setting items corresponding to the plurality of setting values used by the setting unit is not included in the first and second setting item groups.
