Abstract: Provided is an input device capable of facilitating an operation for inputting, a command such as characters. The input device includes an operation unit of which an operation amount is variable and a control unit. The control unit selects one command group among a plurality of command groups and decides on a command on the basis of the command group selected and the operation amount of the operation unit. The control unit switches the command group selected when the operation amount of the operation unit is in a prescribed range.

Abstract: A foreign substance detection device for limiting deterioration in accuracy of foreign substance detection even if a foreign substance detection region changes. The device includes an imaging device configured to keep a region for detecting a foreign substance in an imaging range of the imaging device and a determination unit configured to determine a presence or absence of the foreign substance on the basis of a result of comparing a captured image captured by the imaging device with a reference image free of the foreign substance in the imaging range. The determination unit determines that the captured image is free of a foreign substance on the basis of the result of comparing and a prescribed first condition is satisfied, the unit executes an update process of replacing the reference image with the captured image for which the unit determines freedom of a foreign substance as an updated reference image.

Abstract: A wireless power receiving device that receives AC power from a power transmission coil included in a wireless power transmission device. The wireless power receiving device includes a power receiving coil configured to receive AC power from a power transmission coil, a power receiving-side imaging unit having an auto-focus function, and a control unit configured to cause the power receiving-side imaging unit to image a range able to be imaged by the power receiving-side imaging unit and, in a case in which a marker located at a predetermined first position on an outer surface of the wireless power transmission device is imaged by the power receiving-side imaging unit, to output relative distance information representing relative distance of the power receiving coil with respect to the power transmission coil based on a detected distance using the auto-focus function used by the power receiving-side imaging unit for imaging the marker.

Abstract: A charging device is configured with a power supply device and a DC-DC converter that have constant current voltage drooping type overcurrent protection characteristics and that are connected in series. A constant current value in a voltage drooping state of the DC-DC converter is lower than a constant current value in a voltage drooping state of the power supply device. The DC-DC converter is shifted to an operation state to supply a charging current of the constant current value to a charging target when a voltage value of a direct current voltage that is output from the power supply device reaches a maximum output voltage value or an approximate value thereof. Therefore, the charging target can be charged to a higher voltage even though a charging voltage of the charging target is low.
