  • Publication number: 20070252824
    Abstract: The object is to provide an image forming apparatus that can easily input a setting value associated with a fractional number from a keypad. In a fractional number input mode, if a numeric value (i) is input from the numeric keypad, it is determined whether the numeric value is within an input range set as a numeric value of an integer portion; if a next input numeric value (ii) can be both the one's place of the integer portion and a numerator of a fractional portion, (i) and (ii) are not determined; if both portions can be determined by a next input numeric value (iii), the integer portion displays (i), the numerator portion displays (ii) and “/”; and if the numeric value (iii) can only be a denominator, (i), (ii), and (iii) are defined as the integer, the numerator, and the denominator, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20050099500
    Abstract: In a network camera system, a camera unit detects a change in circumstances surrounding the camera unit. In response to detection of the change, the camera unit captures an image. Then, the camera unit extracts, from the captured image, a partial image corresponding to an area in which the change in circumstances occurred. The camera unit transmits the extracted partial image to a server unit.

  • Patent number: 6731118
    Abstract: A connector inspection apparatus is provided for inspection of a connector having a terminal receiving portion provided with cavities in which terminals are inserted, and a retainer attached to the terminal receiving portion. The connector inspection apparatus includes a holder for holding the connector during inspection, an inspection unit, and a lever for moving the inspection unit forward and rearward with respect to the holder. When the inspection unit is moved forwardly by the lever, a retainer position inspection piece provided in the inspection unit assumes either a forward movable condition or a rearward movable condition dependent upon whether the retainer is in a proper locked condition within the connector. When the retainer position inspection piece is in the backward movable condition, an electrical detection device detects the condition of the retainer.

  • Publication number: 20010009410
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a head-mounted display apparatus capable of radio communication with a computer unit at low cost and in compact structure, and a system therewith. For accomplishing the object, a computer unit and a head-mounted display of the present invention have first and second radio transceivers capable of communication with each other. Further, image data to be displayed on a display body is generated by a graphics processing unit of the computer unit and is supplied in the form of a radio signal to the head-mounted display. Since the graphics processing unit generates only the image data of a changed portion in the display area, it becomes feasible to reduce volumes of the image data to be transmitted and use inexpensive, compact radio transceivers.

  • Patent number: 5917850
    Abstract: A spread spectrum receiving apparatus is constructed by a generator for generating a reference clock, a phase shift circuit for shifting the phase of the reference clock generated by the generator in accordance with a code timing in a reception signal and the reference clock, and a de-spreading circuit for de-spreading the reception signal in accordance with the reference clock whose phase is shifted by the phase shift circuit. The de-spreading circuit generates a code for de-spreading in accordance with the phase shifted reference clock. The phase shift circuit has a calculator for calculating a phase shift amount so as to synchronize the code timing in the reception signal with the code for reception in accordance with a deviation between the code timing in the reception signal and the reference clock.
