Abstract: An opening-and-closing body driving device includes an extendable unit including a spindle, a nut, a rod, a bearing, and a guide tube; and a driving unit. The guide tube includes an insertion portion, and an inner tube configured to allow movement of the nut in the axial direction and restrict rotation of the nut. A surface of the bearing facing a direction opposite to an insertion direction, in which the insertion portion is inserted, is defined as a first reference surface, and a surface of the housing facing a direction opposite to the insertion direction is defined as a second reference surface. A distance from the first reference surface of the bearing to a distal end of the inner peripheral wall is longer than a distance from the second reference surface of the housing to a distal end of the outer peripheral wall in the axial direction.

Abstract: With respect to an inference method performed by at least one processor, the method includes inputting, by the at least one processor, into a learned model, non-processed object image data of a second object and data related to a second process for the second object, and inferring, by the at least one processor using the learned model, processed object image data of the second object on which the second process has been performed. The learned model has been trained so that an output obtained in response to non-processed object image data of a first object and data related to a first process for the first object being input approaches processed object image data of the first object on which the first process has been performed.

Abstract: A semiconductor light receiving device refracts light input from the side direction of the device so that refracted lights reach light receiving sections formed on the top of a semiconductor substrate. The device includes the light receiving sections, a light receiving surface formed on an inclined surface crossing the back and sides of the semiconductor substrate and a reflection film, formed opposite to the light receiving surface, for reflecting at least a part of the light having plural wavelengths. The light receiving surface has different refraction angles according to the wavelengths of the input light and demultiplexes the input light wavelength by wavelength. The reflection film is formed on a recessed surface crossing the back and sides of the semiconductor substrate and reflects light at a reflection angle which differs according to the wavelength so that the input light is more easily demultiplexed into lights which reach the respective light receiving sections.

Abstract: At a semiconductor photodetector 100, a photodetection portion 120 is formed on a first substrate surface 110a of a substrate 110. In addition, a recess 110d is formed at a second substrate surface 110b of the substrate 110 which faces opposite the first substrate surface 110a. This recessed portion 110d is formed as a wedge-type V-shaped groove with a forward mesa surface formed at a front surface thereof, and is formed approximately parallel to a side photodetection surface 110c of the substrate 110 which is approximately perpendicular to the second substrate surface 110b. A total reflection film is coated on the front surface of the recess 110d. In the semiconductor photodetector 100 structured as described above, an incoming light P1 entering through the side photodetection surface 110c is reflected at the recess 110d to enter the photodetection portion 120 from the side where the substrate 110 is provided. As a result, the incoming light P1 is sensed at the photodetection portion 120.
