  • Publication number: 20190001926
    Abstract: A car sharing system includes a car sharing device. The car sharing device includes a key function unit and a user authentication function unit. The key function unit allows a device of a vehicle that is shared with multiple people to operate by performing ID verification through a process similar to an electronic key of the vehicle. When the device of the vehicle is operated with a mobile terminal, the user authentication function unit obtains key information from an external device via the mobile terminal and performs authentication of the key information. When authentication of the key information is accomplished and use of the vehicle is within a reservation time, the user authentication function unit validates the key function unit. The key information is generated as information that is permitted only a temporary use.

  • Publication number: 20180321614
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a developing device, a toner reservoir, a toner replenishing device, a development driving device, a developer amount detecting sensor, and a controller. The developing device includes a developing container, a first stirring-conveyance member, a second stirring-conveyance member, and a developer carrier. The developing container includes a first conveyance chamber and a second conveyance chamber disposed above the first conveyance chamber. The developer amount detecting sensor detects an amount of developer that falls from the second conveyance chamber to the vicinity of a toner replenishing port in the first conveyance chamber. The controller controls the driving of the toner replenishing device or the driving of the development driving device based on a result of detection performed by the developer amount detecting sensor, and thereby keeps a replenished-toner concentration in the developer substantially constant in the vicinity of the toner replenishing port.
