Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes circuitry configured to obtain audio data of audio collected through a microphone, determine whether the audio data has a noise level equal to or less than a threshold to generate a determination result, record the audio data when the determination result indicates that the noise level of the audio data is equal to or less than the threshold, and add the recorded audio data to image data.
Claims16
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a plotter configured to output a printable image contained in first image data to a recording medium;
- a scanner configured to scan the recording medium at a set resolution to generate second image data;
- a control panel configured to receive input from an operator to control the plotter and the scanner;
- and
- circuitry configured to,
- obtain audio data from audio collected through a microphone,
- determine whether the audio data has a noise level equal to or less than a threshold to generate a determination result,
- selectively record the audio data when the determination result indicates that the noise level of the audio data is equal to or less than the threshold, and
- add the recorded audio data to image data, the image data being one or more of the first image data and the second image data.
A method of recording audio performed by an image processing apparatus, the image processing apparatus including a plotter configured to output a printable image contained in first image data to a recording medium, a scanner configured to scan the recording medium at a set resolution to generate second image data, and a control panel configured to receive input from a user to control the plotter and the scanner, the method comprising:
- obtaining audio data collected through a microphone;
- determining whether the audio data has a noise level equal to or less than a threshold to generate a determination result
- selectively recording the audio data when the determination result indicates that the noise level of the audio data is equal to or less than the threshold;
- and
- adding the recorded audio data to image data, the image data being one or more of the first image data and the second image data.
A non-transitory, computer-readable recording medium storing a program that, when executed by one or more processors of an image processing apparatus including a plotter configured to output a printable image contained in first image data to a recording medium, a scanner configured to scan the recording medium at a set resolution to generate second image data, and a control panel configured to receive input from a user to control the plotter and the scanner, causes the processors to implement a method of recording audio comprising:
- obtaining audio data collected through a microphone;
- determining whether the audio data has a noise level equal to or less than a threshold to generate a determination result
- selectively recording the audio data when the determination result indicates that the noise level of the audio data is equal to or less than the threshold;
- and
- adding the recorded audio data to image data, the image data being one or more of the first image data and the second image data.
