Abstract: There is provided a controller for an image forming system including a head in which a plurality of nozzles is formed. The controller includes: a first communication interface configured to communicate with a line sensor including imaging elements arranged at a predetermined interval and having an element-lacking-part at which an interval between two elements is larger than the predetermined interval; and a second communication interface. The controller is configured to: form a test pattern including patterns; obtain a test pattern data generated by imaging the test pattern with the line sensor; correct a position of the patterns on the test pattern data based on a position of the element-lacking-part; and detect a discharge-defect-nozzle based on the corrected test pattern data.

Abstract: An audio system for an elevator includes two or more speaker cabinets arranged inside a suspended ceiling fixed to a ceiling board of a car of the elevator, an input device to which sound content radiated to an inside of the car from each of the two or more speaker cabinets are input, and a sound field control device configured to conduct phase control and reverberation time control for the sound content and thereby cause a sound wave based on the sound content to be radiated from the speaker cabinet to the inside of the car. Each of the speaker cabinets includes a casing arranged inside the suspended ceiling, and a speaker unit arranged inside the casing and having a radiation surface that radiates the sound wave.

Abstract: A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes an expansion device, a pipe, and a transmission sound suppressing member. The expansion device includes a valve body to control a flow rate of refrigerant. The pipe is connected to the expansion device to extend along moving directions, in controlling the flow rate of the refrigerant, of the valve body of the expansion device, and allowing the refrigerant to pass therethrough. The transmissive sound suppressing member is positioned at a first region, which is defined on an outer side of the pipe to cover at least a tip of the valve body of the expansion device, and a second region, which is continuous to the first region and is defined on an outer side of a portion of the pipe including a portion of connection to the expansion device.

Abstract: A pipe with a sound absorber has a fluid pipe in which fluid passes and a sound absorber of a pulp-based fiber material. The sound absorber surrounds an outer circumference of the fluid pipe. The sound absorber is provided to secure space between an outer surface of the fluid pipe and an inner surface of the sound absorber.

Abstract: A non-transitory storage medium stores instructions readable by a computer of an information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus includes an accepter configured to accept an operation of a user. When executed by the computer, the instructions cause the information processing apparatus to perform: executing an accepting processing in which the accepter of the information processing apparatus accepts a selecting operation that is an operation of selecting data; executing an obtaining processing in which the information processing apparatus obtains a URL corresponding to data specified by the selecting operation accepted in the accepting processing; and executing a creating processing in which the information processing apparatus creates a two-dimensional code storing the URL obtained in the obtaining processing.

Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus includes a housing having an air inlet and an air outlet, a fan disposed in the housing, and a bell mouth through which a fluid flowing from the air inlet to the air outlet passes in association with rotation of the fan. The bell mouth includes curved part having a curved sectional shape in a fluid flow direction and a vibration-damping element disposed on at least one of a front surface and a rear surface of the curved part. The vibration-damping element is disposed at a position corresponding to a node of vibration of the bell mouth.

Abstract: An information processing device may read, from a shared storing area, first identification information indicating K pieces of first applications that are already installed. The information processing device may display first screen on the display. The information processing device may cause an operating system to display the K pieces of first images in the first screen. Each of K pieces of link information may be associated with a corresponding one of the K pieces of first images. When any one of the K pieces of first images receives an input operation, the operating system may activate the corresponding first application indicated by the link information associated with the first image that receives the input operation.

Abstract: A housing for an electric apparatus includes a housing body and a silencer. The housing body has a space provided to house a device that is a noise source and at least one opening communicating the space. The silencer is attached to an outer periphery of the housing body in such a manner as to surround the opening.

Abstract: A program causes, when executed, a terminal apparatus to perform operations including: receiving a target signal from a target scanner, the target signal being sequentially transmitted from the target scanner after a placement operation of placing an original document of a scan target is performed at the target scanner, the target signal not being transmitted from the target scanner before the placement operation is performed at the target scanner; in response to receiving the target signal from the target scanner, acquiring target communication information for performing wireless communication between the terminal apparatus and the target scanner through a target network; in response to acquiring the target communication information, transmitting a scan request to the target scanner through the target network by using the target communication information; and in response to transmitting the scan request to the target scanner, receiving scan data from the target scanner through the target network.
