  • Patent number: 9106110
    Abstract: A power generating device includes a power generating part, a sliding member, first, second and third elastic parts, and a connecting member. When the sliding member is caused to move to a first storage completion position by an operation that causes the connecting member to rotate, the connecting member and the sliding member are disconnected so that the sliding member is caused to move in a first direction by an elastic force stored in the second elastic part. The connecting member is caused to rotate by an elastic force stored in the third elastic part. When the sliding member is caused to move to a second storage completion position by the third elastic part, the connecting member and the sliding member are disconnected so that the sliding member is caused to move in a second direction by an elastic force stored in the first elastic part.

  • Patent number: 8479274
    Abstract: Provided is a personal verification device capable of easily performing personal verification of a user. In the device, under the condition that a user grasps a case (110) of a game controller (10), a vibration control unit (152) causes a vibration motor (120) arranged inside of the case (110) to vibrate in different patterns. A triaxial acceleration sensor (140) detects vibration generated by the vibration motor (120) which vibrates in the different patterns, and a storage unit (153) stores a plurality of pieces of measurement data obtained by the detection for each of the users. A determination unit (154) performs the personal verification by comparing and collating the data in the storage unit (153) with the measurement data obtained by vibrating the vibration motor (120) under the condition that the user grasps the case (110).
