20110138889 | Method of evaluating prostatic disease - According to the method of evaluating prostatic disease of the present invention, amino acid concentration data on concentration values of amino acids in blood collected from a subject to be evaluated is measured, and the state of prostatic disease including at least one of prostatic cancer and prostatic hypertrophy in the subject is evaluated based on the concentration value of at least one of Tau, Thr, Ser, Asn, Glu, Pro, Gly, Ala, Cit, ABA, Val, Met, Ile, Leu, Phe, His, Trp, Orn, Lys, and Cys2 contained in the measured amino acid concentration data of the subject. | 06-16-2011 |
20120041684 | Method of evaluating obesity, obesity-evaluating apparatus, obesity-evaluating method, obesity-evaluating system, obesity-evaluating program product, recording medium, and information communication terminal apparatus - According to the method of evaluating obesity of the present invention, amino acid concentration data on concentration values of amino acids in blood collected from a subject to be evaluated is measured, and the state of at least one of the apparent obesity, the non-apparent obesity and the obesity which are defined by the BMI and the VFA in the subject is evaluated based on the concentration value of at least one of Glu, Ser, Pro, Gly, Ala, Cys2, Tyr, Val, Orn, Met, Lys, Ile, Leu, Phe, and Trp contained in the measured amino acid concentration data of the subject. | 02-16-2012 |
20130234734 | SENSOR UNIT, INPUT DEVICE, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A sensor unit is provided and includes a first substrate, first and second electrodes, an input portion disposed so that a gap exists between the substrate and the input portion, a plurality of first structures disposed in the gap and extending at least partially between the first substrate and the input portion, and a second insulating structure disposed on a side of the first structures that is away from the input portion, or between adjacent first structures. The sensor unit is configured to detect a change in capacitance between the first and second electrodes upon a change in position of the input portion relative to the first substrate. | 09-12-2013 |
20140208260 | SCROLLING APPARATUS, SCROLLING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A scrolling apparatus includes: a display unit which displays a content on a screen; a contact detection unit which detects contact of a finger to the screen; a proximity detection unit which detects proximity of a finger to the screen; a scrolling control unit which scrolls the content displayed on the screen in response to a contact manipulation of the finger on the screen; and a display control unit which displays, on the screen, the scrolled content. The scrolling control unit decelerates a scroll speed to a given speed if proximity of the finger to the screen is detected at or after a start of the scrolling. | 07-24-2014 |
20140362123 | SCROLLING APPARATUS, SCROLLING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A scrolling apparatus includes a screen, a contact detector which detects contact of a finger to the screen, a proximity detector which detects proximity of a finger to the screen, and a scrolling controller. If a first proximity of the finger is detected when an inertial scrolling of content is started, the scrolling controller transitions from the inertial scrolling to a constant scroll speed. When the detection of the first proximity of the finger continues, the scrolling at constant scroll speed continues even after the first proximity of the finger is not detected. When the scrolling at constant speed is performed after the first proximity of the finger is not detected, if a second proximity of the finger is detected, the scrolling controller stops the scrolling at constant speed, and then if the second proximity of the finger is not detected, the scrolling controller restarts the scrolling at constant speed. | 12-11-2014 |
20150070306 | SENSOR DEVICE, INPUT DEVICE, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A sensor device includes: a first sensor including a first electrode board including a plurality of first capacitive elements arranged in a matrix, a first conductor layer facing the first electrode board, a first support layer arranged between the first electrode board and the first conductor layer, the first support layer being deformable, and a first operation input surface provided on the first electrode board or the first conductor layer, the first electrode board and/or the first conductor layer being flexible; and a second sensor layered on the first sensor, the second sensor including a second electrode board including a plurality of second capacitive elements, a second conductor layer facing the second electrode board, and a second support layer arranged between the second electrode board and the second conductor layer, the second support layer being deformable, the second electrode board and/or the second conductor layer being flexible. | 03-12-2015 |
20150070600 | SENSOR DEVICE, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SENSOR DEVICE, DISPLAY APPARATUS, AND INPUT APPARATUS - A sensor device includes: a first base material and a second base material disposed apart to face each other; a plurality of first adhesion sections that are two-dimensionally arranged in a gap between the first base material and the second base material and have elasticity; and a mitigation section configured to mitigate an increase in contact area of each of the first adhesion sections to one of the first base material and the second base material, the contact area increasing as the gap narrows. | 03-12-2015 |
