20090256978 | LIQUID CRYSTAL SKI GOGGLES AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A goggle includes a lens assembly which comprises a front lens, a rear lens spaced apart from the front lens, and a liquid crystal device disposed on one of the lenses. The goggle includes a frame, which defines an aperture and a peripheral channel. The peripheral channel receives the front lens and the rear lens is positioned rearward of the channel so that the aperture receives the lens assembly. A power unit includes a battery and a drive circuit, wherein the drive circuit is connected to a pair of prongs that are electrically connectable to the liquid crystal device for operation thereof. The power unit provides a master switch connected to the battery to control application of power to the drive circuit, and a state change switch to control application of power from the drive circuit, through the prongs, to the liquid crystal device. | 10-15-2009 |

20130286306 | RECORDING APPARATUS, DETECTION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A recording apparatus includes a sensor including a light emitting element for emitting light to a recording medium, and a light receiving element for receiving the emitted light and reflected by the recording medium, configured to, via the light emitting and light receiving elements, measure a patch recorded on the recording medium by a recording head; a calibration member configured to reflect the emitted light and to be used to calibrate the sensor based on a result of optical measurement of the calibration member performed by receiving, via the light receiving element, reflected light reflected by the calibration member; and a detection unit configured to detect dirtiness of the calibration member based on the result of the optical measurement of the calibration member by the sensor and a result of optical measurement of the calibration member performed before the measurement. | 10-31-2013 |
20130329144 | PRINTING APPARATUS AND PRINTING METHOD - An aspect of this invention is directed to efficiently sorting printed products into non-defective ones and defective ones even when a discharge failure occurs during the printing operation. In the aspect, two inspection patterns for detecting discharge failure are printed before and after a plurality of images. The inspection patterns are read to determine the type of discharge failure. Printed media are sorted based on whether it is determined that there is a continuous discharge failure, whether it is determined that there is an accidental discharge failure, or whether it is determined that the discharge is normal. | 12-12-2013 |
