Abstract: An image capturing and processing apparatus has image pickup means, first image memorizing means in which an object image from a predetermined viewing point position captured by the image pickup means is memorized, three-dimensional shape model memorizing means for producing a reference object image from a viewing point position nearest to the pick-up object image on the basis of a reference three-dimensional shape model, second image memorizing means in which the produced reference object image is memorized, different portion extracting means for extracting the difference between the object image and the reference object image memorized in the respective image memorizing means, and shape model correcting means for correcting the reference three-dimensional shape model on the basis of the extracted difference.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a main body which has a plurality of electrical contacts and an information storing part which can be loaded and unloaded on and from the main body and also has a plurality of electrical contacts arranged to be connectable with the electrical contacts of the main body. The apparatus has a moving member which is arranged to carry the information storing part and to be movable only between first and second positions, in such a way as to have the plurality of electrical contacts of the information storing part not connected to the plurality of electrical contacts of the main body when the moving member is in the first position and connected to the plurality of electrical contacts of the main body when the moving member is in the second position.

Abstract: A disc drive device has a head mounted on a head carriage with a head moving support mechanism which is capable of moving the head to the extent of one track pitch. The device is arranged to advance the head for a plurality of recording tracks on a disc-shaped recording medium at the pitch of two frame-recording tracks. At each moving position of the head carriage, the head is moved from one track position to an adjacent track by the head moving support mechanism.
