Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an operating unit to which a user enters a password for registration, and a control unit. The control unit includes a processor and, when the processor executes a control program, functions as: an operation acceptance section accepting the password for registration entered to the operating unit; a practice mode execution section executing a practice mode prompting the user to re-enter the password for registration accepted by the operation acceptance section; and a first setting section setting a number of times of password re-entry under the practice mode in accordance with information on at least either one of a number of characters and a number of character types in the password for registration accepted by the operation acceptance section. The practice mode execution section executes processing of prompting the user to perform the password re-entry at the number of times set by the first setting section.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, an activity meter includes an acceleration sensor configured to detect acceleration in at least one axis direction, an acceleration energy detection section configured to detect acceleration energy based on an acceleration signal of the acceleration sensor and a control section. The control section determines removal of the activity meter from a target person based on acceleration energy detected by the acceleration energy detection section and an acceleration component in a direction of gravity in the acceleration signal of the acceleration sensor.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic thermometer includes a temperature sensing unit, a conversion unit, an FSK modulation unit, and a transmission unit. The temperature sensing unit detects the temperature of a subject. The conversion unit converts a result detected by the temperature sensing unit to a digital signal. The FSK modulation unit converts the digital signal from the conversion unit to an FSK modulation signal. The transmission unit outputs a transmission signal including a pilot signal having a frequency assigned to the FSK (frequency shift keying) modulation signal and the FSK modulation signal subsequent to the pilot signal.

Abstract: A control portion specifies an allowance time from a job reception time to a time at which a job sender reaches a self-apparatus, on the basis of allowance time specifying information acquired per print job data. Furthermore, the control portion controls a start time of a print process in accordance with an order in which an elapsed time from the job reception time is determined to have reached a planned start time. The planned start time is a time which is back-calculated from a time point when the allowance time elapses after the job reception, on the basis of a time required for the print process.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus has a judgment portion, a job control portion, and an operation portion. When print data is received by a reception portion, the judgment portion checks whether or not a detection portion is outputting a detection signal. When the detection portion is found to be outputting the detection signal, the job control portion inhibits a printing portion from executing the print job for the print data received by the reception portion and instead stores the print data in a storage portion. The operation portion accepts an instruction to print for an image represented by the print data stored in the storage portion. When the instruction is entered on the operation portion, the job control portion makes the printing portion execute a print job for the print data stored in the storage portion.
