20080304378 | RECORDING APPARATUS AND RECORDING METHOD - A recording apparatus that performs at least recording on a recording medium including a user-data recording area, a first temporary-management-information recording area, one or plural second temporary-management-information recording areas, and area-use-state presenting areas includes a recording unit that performs the recording on the recording medium and a controlling unit that controls the recording unit. The controlling unit determines whether information recording is successful and controls, when it is determined that the information recording fails, the recording unit to record temporary management information in the second temporary-management-information recording area in which temporary management information should be recorded following the second temporary-management-information recording area corresponding to the area-use-state presenting area in which the information recording fails, and, then, perform information recording in the area-use-state presenting area associated with the second temporary-management-information recording area. | 12-11-2008 |
20080304383 | PLAYBACK DEVICE AND MANAGEMENT INFORMATION ACQUIRING METHOD - A playback device includes a reading section that performs reading from a recording medium, and a control section that acquires the latest temporary management information recorded last on the recording medium. The control section executes a read control process of controlling the reading section so that when reading pointer information in a temporary management information unit recorded last in a temporary management information unit recording area, reading of data is executed from a predetermined position located before a segment in which the pointer information is included, and an information acquiring process of executing a process for acquiring the temporary management information pointed to by the pointer information from the data read in response to the read control process. | 12-11-2008 |
20120002522 | CONTROL DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND CONTROL PROGRAM - There is provided a control device including a recording portion that records data on a disk by shining a laser beam onto a recording surface of the disk, a reading portion that reads the data on the disk, a control parameter computation portion that computes a control parameter, a differential computation portion that computes a differential between the control parameter and a value that is set in advance for the disk, a determination portion that determines whether the differential that the differential computation portion has computed is within a range of a dead band, an output value computation portion that computes an output value for the laser beam, an output control portion that controls the laser beam, a storage portion that stores a plurality of combinations of the dead band and the gain, and a selecting portion that selects one of the combinations of the dead band and the gain. | 01-05-2012 |
20120118537 | FLATTENED HEAT PIPE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - The invention provides a flattened heat pipe whose vapor flowing passage is not clogged and which has an excellent capillary force. The flattened heat pipe has a closed container formed by flattening a tubular container, a plurality of wick structures arrayed within the container in a longitudinal direction so as to form an acute-angled portion where a capillary force is large at least partially within the container, a hollow portion formed of an outer peripheral surface of the wick structure and an inner wall surface of the container and a working fluid sealed into the container. | 05-17-2012 |
20130285884 | HEAD MOUNT DISPLAY AND DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD - Disclosed is a head mount display including: a user operation section configured to determine one or more coordinates based on a first operation performed by a user via the user operation section while receiving content via the head-mount device; and a controller configured to: superpose, in response to detection of the first operation by the user, upon at least one of one or more display sections of the head-mount device, a screen including one or more items, each of the one or more items of the superposed screen being selectable by the user to control the content being received by the user; and highlight, based on the one or more coordinates determined upon detection of the first operation, at least one of the one or more selectable items of the superposed screen in comparison to other selectable items of the superposed screen. | 10-31-2013 |
20130300949 | HEAD MOUNT DISPLAY AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING HEAD MOUNT DISPLAY - Disclosed is a head mount display including: a display section displaying video pictures for the left and right eyes; an audio output section outputting sound accompanying the video pictures; a user operation section operated by the user to adjust the volume of the sound outputted by the audio output section; a mounting sensor detecting whether or not the user has worn the head mount display; and a control section controlling the operation to adjust the volume requested by the user by operating the user operation section in accordance with a detection result from the mounting sensor. | 11-14-2013 |
20140198192 | DISPLAY DEVICE AND DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD - To appropriately prevent the occurrence of a burn-in phenomenon during a display of a video in which an OSD screen is superimposed on a video screen. By appropriately moving the position for displaying an OSD screen when the OSD screen is displayed on a video screen in a superimposed manner, a burn-in phenomenon is prevented from occurring in a menu background area of the OSD screen or a boundary portion between a menu background area and a menu phrase. For example, each time the OSD screen is displayed, the OSD screen is moved by one pixel and then displayed. Movement of the display position of the OSD screen is implemented by an instruction from an OSD display position control unit | 07-17-2014 |
20140198193 | HEAD MOUNT DISPLAY AND DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD - To appropriately prevent a burn-in phenomenon when a still image such as an OSD screen is displayed on a display panel. When a menu screen is displayed on a video screen in a superimposed manner, a menu phrase in at least one of a left-eye video and a right-eye video is deleted on a menu background area. A time period in which a brightness difference between still pixels in a boundary between a menu background area and a menu phrase remains large is reduced, and thus the occurrence of the burn-in phenomenon can be prevented. However, the menu background area is constantly displayed without being deleted, so that screen flickering does not occur. | 07-17-2014 |
