Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for appropriately inspecting a defect on at least one of organic layers stacked on a substrate in an organic light emitting diode. The apparatus includes: an illumination unit configured to irradiate a near infrared light of a wavelength ranging from 0.7 ?m to 2.5 ?m toward the at least one of the organic layers on a glass substrate; an imaging unit configured to image the at least one of the organic layers irradiated with the near infrared light illuminated from the illumination unit; and a processing container configured to accommodate the illumination unit and the imaging unit therein and perform inspection of the at least one of the organic layers. An inside of the processing container is maintained in an atmosphere at an oxygen concentration lower than an oxygen concentration of air and at a dew point temperature lower than a dew point temperature of air.

Abstract: There is disclosed an image processing apparatus and a control method thereof in which input image data and generates a plurality of tile images, each including a substance region and overlap regions each of which overlaps with a part of each adjacent tile image, by dividing the input image data. The apparatus executes image processing separately on each of the plurality of the generated tile images, and when generating each tile image, converts a resolution of image data in the overlap regions such that the resolution of the image data in the overlap regions is smaller than a resolution of image data in the substance region.

Abstract: It is determined whether each of objects separated from a plurality of objects arranged in a single page is character object or not, and with respect to an object determined as a character object, a ratio of pixels configuring a character in the determined object to all pixels in said determined object is calculated. A character object in which the ratio crosses a predetermined reference value, when the plurality of objects in the single page are scaled and arranged in accordance with a size of a sheet set by a user, is arranged in a different page.

Abstract: There is disclosed a truck for use with a linear motor drive conveyor for conveying articles such as automotive bodies through a paint station. Shield means are provided carried by the reaction plate which in turn is carried by the truck. The shield means includes a central flat plate and downturned side edges which overlie and protect the gap between the reaction plate and the primary members of the linear motor from paint or other foreign particles.

Abstract: In a linear motor comprising a moving body and a plurality of electromagnets arranged along the path of the moving body, the electromagnets are divided into blocks, each block comprising one or more electromagnets which are energized simultaneously. The blocks are energized sequentially with the time lag between energizations of sequentially energized blocks being sufficient to allow the current in each block to reach substantially its steady state level before the next block is energized. When starting the linear motor, a first block is energized, and a transient state occurs in which the current drawn by the first block is higher than the steady state current drawn by the first block. At the end of the transient state of the first block, a second block is energized. Third and fourth are energized similarly, each block being energized only when the transient state of the preceding block is substantially over, i.e. when the current drawn by the preceding block is substantially at its steady state level.
