INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240161279 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that analyzes three-dimensional luminance data of the skin to extract patterns based on features acquired from different planes.

  • The first acquisition means acquires a feature amount from luminance data of a first plane facing the skin surface.
  • The second acquisition means acquires a feature amount from luminance data of a second plane including the depth direction of the skin.
  • The calculation means calculates an extraction depth for pattern extraction based on the acquired feature amounts.

Potential Applications

This technology can be used in various fields such as dermatology, cosmetics, and biometrics for skin pattern analysis and identification.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of accurately extracting patterns from three-dimensional skin data, which can be challenging due to variations in skin texture and depth.

Benefits

- Accurate extraction of skin patterns for analysis and identification. - Improved understanding of skin characteristics and conditions. - Enhanced capabilities in skincare product development and personalized treatments.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Skin Pattern Extraction Technology for Dermatology and Cosmetics"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to image processing techniques for analyzing skin patterns, but specific information on similar technologies is not provided in this patent application.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology handle variations in skin texture and depth for accurate pattern extraction?

The technology likely utilizes advanced algorithms and processing methods to analyze the different feature amounts acquired from multiple planes of the skin to account for variations in texture and depth.

What are the potential limitations or challenges of implementing this technology in real-world applications?

Some potential challenges could include the need for high-quality three-dimensional data acquisition, computational resources for processing large amounts of data, and validation of the extracted patterns for practical use in dermatology and cosmetics.


Original Abstract Submitted

there is provided an information processing apparatus including a first acquisition means for acquiring a first feature amount acquired from luminance data of a first plane facing a surface of a skin among three-dimensional luminance data of the skin, a second acquisition means for acquiring a second feature amount acquired from luminance data of a second plane including a depth direction of the skin among the three-dimensional luminance data, and a calculation means for calculating an extraction depth for extraction of a pattern of the skin based on the first feature amount and the second feature amount.
