Abstract: According to the present invention, when the traveling of an automatic guided vehicle is optically controlled, a traveling controlling means containing a luminescent compound satisfying the following formula (1) is placed in a predetermined range for traveling of the automatic guided vehicle: A−B≧150 nm  (1) wherein, A represents the minimum wavelength end (nm) of the luminescent compound, and B represents the maximum wavelength end (nm) of an irradiation light used for the traveling controlling.

Abstract: High-purity 1,4,5,8-tetraanilidoanthraquinones which are substituted at the p-position of at least one of four anilido benzene rings by a halogen atom are good near infrared rays absorbing filters and at prepared from high purity 1,4,5,8-tetrachloroanthraquinone by reaction with a correspondingly substituted aniline or mixture of anilines in the presence of a salt of an aliphatic carboxylic acid,. a benzyl alcohol derivative and copper ions as reaction catalyst.

Abstract: Disclosed is a resin composition for ultraviolet luminescent screen comprising one or more of luminescent compound represented by the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein X is ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are individually a hydrogen atom, halogen atom, alkyl, alkoxy, amino, alkylamino, dialkylamino, anyl or aralkyl, and Y is perfluoroalkyl, and A.sup.+ is a cation represented by the formula (II): ##STR3## wherein R.sub.5, R.sub.6, R.sub.7 and R.sub.8 are individually a hydrogen atom, alkyl or aralkyl and may be combined with each other to form a ring, or a pyridium cation which may have a substituent, or a phosphonium cation.
