20120220429 | TRAINING MANAGEMENT DEVICE, TRAINING DEVICE AND STORAGE MEDIUM - Disclosed is a training management device which manages exercise by a user using a training machine including a moving body which moves according to exercise by the user, the training management device including: a detecting section which detects that (a) the moving body starts moving from a default position to reach a predetermined position and (b) the moving body moves from the predetermined position toward the default position; a measuring section which measures time from when the detecting section detects that the moving body reaches the predetermined position to when the detecting section detects that the moving body moves from the predetermined position toward the default position; and a determining section which determines whether the exercise by the user is isometric training based on the measurement time measured by the measuring section. | 08-30-2012 |
20130188308 | INFORMATION TERMINAL APPARATUS - Efficient heat exhaust is performed in accordance with inclination of a housing of an information terminal apparatus which is caused depending on a way of installing the information terminal apparatus or of an operator's carrying the information terminal apparatus. | 07-25-2013 |
20130265303 | MOSAIC IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS USING THREE-DIMENSIONAL INFORMATION, AND PROGRAM - Realized is a 3D mosaic image generating technique enabling mapping of a material image with any polygon. Texture images are allocated to the polygons resulting from division on the basis of the input polygon number. The average density value of each base color of texture image portions is calculated as a target density value. The polygon in which one material image will be disposed is decided without reliance on the color density of the texture image, and the average density value of each base color within the material image is calculated. Each base-color density distribution rate for material images is maintained and the material images are color corrected so that the base-color average density values within material images become the target density values of the base colors of texture image portions within polygons. | 10-10-2013 |

20100259570 | OPTICAL DETECTION DEVICE, AND IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE - Provided is a photodetection device which is small in size and has excellent sensitivity. A photodetection device puts cathode terminals of photodiodes having different spectral characteristics into an open end state, and detects light intensity of a desired wavelength region according to a difference in electric charges that have been stored in those photodiodes in a given period of time. The photodiodes employ a system of storing electric charges, and hence even if a photocurrent is small, the photocurrent may be stored to obtain the electric charges required for detection, and the downsizing and high detection performance of a semiconductor device that forms the photodiodes may be achieved. Further, a wide dynamic range may be realized with an electric charge storage time being variable according to the light intensity, to intermittently drive an element required for difference detection at the time of difference detection so as to suppress electric power consumption, or to average the output so as to reduce flicker. | 10-14-2010 |
