USER SUPPORT APPARATUS FOR AN IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM, PROGRAM THEREOF AND IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A user support apparatus for an image processing system,the image processing system comprising:
- an image capturing unit disposed to capture an image of a workpiece conveyed on a conveying apparatus; and
an image processing apparatus connected to the image capturing unit, andthe user support apparatus comprising;
a display unit configured to display an image obtained by image capturing by the image capturing unit;
an overlapping range determining unit configured to determine an overlapping range between image capturing ranges in images displayed on the display unit; and
an image capturing start condition determining unit configured to determine an image capturing start condition for the image capturing unit that is defined by an amount of movement of the conveying apparatus, the image capturing start condition being determined based on a size of the determined overlapping range, using a relationship between an image capturing range of the image capturing unit and a property of the conveying apparatus.

Abstract
An user support apparatus includes a display unit configured to display an image obtained by image capturing with the image capturing unit, an input unit configured to receive a designation of a region of a workpiece to be detected in the image displayed on the display unit, and a determining unit configured to determine an image capturing start condition for the image capturing unit that is defined in terms of the amount of movement of a conveying apparatus, based on the size of the region indicating the workpiece to be detected by using a relationship between the image capturing range of the image capturing unit and the physical length of the conveying apparatus.

9. A program that can be executed by a computer and thereby cause the computer to function as a user support apparatus for an image processing system,
the image processing system comprising: -
an image capturing unit disposed so as to capture a workpiece conveyed on a conveying apparatus; and an image processing apparatus connected to the image capturing unit, and the program causing the computer to function as; a display unit configured to display an image obtained by image capturing with the image capturing unit; an overlapping range determining unit configured to determine an overlapping range between image capturing ranges in the images displayed on the display unit; and an image capturing start condition determining unit configured to determine an image capturing start condition for the image capturing unit that is defined by an amount of movement of the conveying apparatus, the image capturing start condition being determined based on a size of the determined overlapping range, using a relationship between an image capturing range of the image capturing unit and a property of the conveying apparatus.

10. An image processing apparatus that can be connected to an image capturing unit disposed to capture a workpiece conveyed on a conveying apparatus, the image processing apparatus comprising:
-
a display unit configured to display an image obtained by image capturing with the image capturing unit; an overlapping range determining unit configured to determine an overlapping range between image capturing ranges in images displayed on the display unit; and an image capturing start condition determining unit configured to determine an image capturing start condition for the image capturing unit, wherein said image capturing start condition is defined in terms of an amount of movement of the conveying apparatus, and is determined based on a size of the determined overlapping range using a relationship between an image capturing range captured by the image capturing unit and a property of the conveying apparatus.
