Abstract: A transmit/receive module includes plural duplexers, a power amplifier, and a sending transmission line. The plural duplexers operate in bands different from each other and each includes a transmit filter and a receive filter. The power amplifier amplifies signals of pass bands of the plural transmit filters and outputs the amplified signals. The sending transmission line is connected to the plural transmit filters. The signals of the pass bands of the plural transmit filters output from the power amplifier are transmitted through the sending transmission line.

Abstract: There is provided a program to make it possible to check whether operation of the RFID tag is a desired operation assumed by a user. The program causes a computer to function as: a means for acquiring information regarding motion of an RFID tag that performs near-field wireless communication; a means for recognizing preliminary operation of the RFID tag on a basis of the information regarding the motion; and a means for performing processing of displaying the recognized preliminary operation of the RFID tag. This configuration makes it possible to check whether operation of the RFID tag is a desired operation assumed by a user.

Abstract: A touch panel is constructed by a display/sensor unit which is slightly larger than a display screen of an LCD and a sensor unit which is projected to the outside from one side, for example, from one side on the right. A finger of the user is touched to a selection item such as desired button, icon, or the like on the display/sensor unit and vertically moved on the sensor unit. A selection display constructed by a plurality of buttons is displayed along the side of the display screen by the LCD. A button beside the finger is highlighted. When the finger is released, the highlighted button is selected. If there are no buttons adjacent to the finger, the button is not highlighted. Even if the finger is released, the state is not changed. When finger is moved to the display/sensor unit, the selection display disappears.

Abstract: A DMP/DMC (dual terminal) (10) has both of a content reproduction function for reproducing a content, and a content controller function for controlling the delivery of the content from a content server to an arbitrary delivery destination and the reproduction of the content. The dual terminal (10) accepts the selection of the content from its operation unit, and receives a designation of the delivery destination to deliver the content from the DMS (content server) 20. The dual terminal switches the GUI setting for its display unit, depending on whether the delivery destination is the terminal itself or an apparatus provided with the content reproduction function. Accordingly, operability on the terminal can be enhanced.

Abstract: A user uses a DMC (remote control device) 10 to deliver content from a DMS (content server) to a first DMR (content reproducing device) 30a and reproduces the content on the DMR 30a for viewing. When the reproduction is paused by an operation on the DMC 10 while viewing the content, reproduction restart information (at least the content ID and pause position information) is stored in the DMC 10. After that, a second DMR 30b is specified by an operation on the DMC 10, and the reproduction of the content is restarted on the DMR 30b using the stored reproduction restart information beginning at the pause position. This configuration allows the user, with the remote control device, to easily and quickly pause the reproduction of the content on a reproducing device and to restart the reproduction of the content on another reproducing device beginning at the pause position.

Abstract: Three-dimensional-model processing apparatus, three-dimensional-model processing methods, and computer programs are provided. In a three-dimensional-model processing apparatus, method, and computer programs, it is determined whether relative positions or relative attitudes of a plurality of three-dimensional objects shown on an image display unit satisfy a predetermined processing execution condition. When it is determined that the processing execution condition is satisfied, distinction information indicating that processing such as pickup or joining of objects is possible is presented. For example, display mode is changed or sound is output for the objects. A user is allowed to immediately find without stress whether an object is at a position where pickup or joining is possible. This improves the efficiency of operation.

Abstract: A heat-exchanging pipe having an inside surface formed with a plurality of ribs for enhancing turbulence of fluid flowing through the pipe. Each rib has an upstanding face portion formed on an upstream side of the rib and an inclined face portion descending from an upper end of the up-standing face portion in a downstream direction. The pipe is manufactured by roll forming a substantially flat piece of sheet metal material to form the ribs and then curling and joining ends of the sheet metal to form a substantially cylindrical pipe with the ribs on the inside surface thereof.
