Abstract: There is provision of a substrate support assembly including an edge ring, a substrate support, and a thermal conductivity adjuster. The substrate support has a central portion that supports a substrate, and an outer peripheral portion that supports the edge ring arranged around the substrate. The thermal conductivity adjuster is in contact with a part of the edge ring in a circumferential direction, and a thermal conductivity of the thermal conductivity adjuster is different from a thermal conductivity of the edge ring.

Abstract: An in-vehicle broadcast reception apparatus includes the following. A viewing or listening determiner section determining whether a relay broadcasting of a sports game is viewed or listened to via a first broadcast. A team determiner section determining whether a team in the sports game is a team of interest to a user among a plurality of teams. A retriever section retrieving a second broadcast that performs a relay broadcasting of a sports game which is identical to the relay broadcasting of the sports game viewed or listened to via the first broadcast. A switcher section switching to the second broadcast to enable continued viewing or listening of the sports game when the relay broadcasting of the sports game via the first broadcast is ended, in response to that the team in the sports game is determined to be the team of interest to the user.

Abstract: An in-vehicle display control device includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of element images to be displayed on a vehicular display from each image generation unit; a change information acquisition unit that acquires color change information; and an image synthesizing unit that generates a synthetic image based on a color in the color change information and the plurality of element images. The image synthesizing unit generates the synthetic image by synthesizing the plurality of element images and a color change layer.

Abstract: A vehicle display device includes: a display; a vehicle information image generator; an external image obtaining device; a display controller that displays the vehicle information image and the external image on the display; and an external image display determination device that determines whether the display controller is going to display the not displayed external image. When the display controller is going to display the not displayed external image, the display controller displays the external image, which the display controller is going to display, on the display with gradually increasing brightness of the external image from the brightness that is lower by a predetermined amount than original brightness to predetermined brightness that is determined based on the original brightness.

Abstract: A vehicle display processing apparatus includes: a first determination portion that determines whether a vehicle is at a stop; a first display processing portion that displays on a first display device, an operation screen image, the first display device being provided between a driver seat and a front passenger seat; a second display processing portion that displays a screen image relating to the operation screen image, which is displayed on the first display device, on a second display device provided to a driver seat side; and a second determination portion that determines whether a running speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than a predetermined speed. The second display device is provided by a head-up display. When the running speed of the vehicle is lower than the predetermined speed, the second display processing portion does not display the screen image on the second display device.

Abstract: A data retrieval apparatus comprises: a local database which links data for retrieval with content attribute data and stores same; a data for retrieval extraction processing unit which extracts the data for retrieval from a medium; an attribute data retrieval processing unit which retrieves the attribute data corresponding to the data for retrieval from the local database; and a data for retrieval storage processing unit which stores the data for retrieval if the attribute data corresponding to the data for retrieval is not present in the local database.

Abstract: A vehicle display control device includes a timing determination unit that determines timing when it is authenticated that the mobile terminal is an object that can provide the mobile screen information after the start of processing of connection between an HCU and the mobile terminal. A display control unit displays a during-connection-processing image indicating that connection with the mobile terminal is being processed, on the display device after the timing is determined by the timing determination unit until the mobile screen information becomes possible to be displayed on the display device. The display control unit does not display the during-connection-processing image on the display device after the connection processing is started until the timing is determined by the timing determination unit.

Abstract: A navigation apparatus guides a user to an appropriate terminal in an airport, for example, even when a schedule of an intended flight is changed. The above advantage is achieved by acquiring flight information of the intended flight from a flight information list that is delivered from an information distribution center and by determining, as a guidance destination, a terminal of the intended flight or a suitable airport facility after change of the flight schedule. The suitable guidance destination is determined not only by the changed flight schedule but also by a user purpose to go to the airport and an estimated arrival time of the user to the airport.
