  • Publication number: 20240110898
    Abstract: An analyzer for a rubber composition includes an acquisition unit, a peak identification unit, and an estimation unit. The acquisition unit acquires data acquired by allowing a rubber composition to undergo component separation and mass separation, the data being plotted in a space defined by a time axis, a signal intensity axis, and a mass component axis. The peak identification unit identities peaks in signal intensity for mass chromatograms corresponding to positions on the mass component axis. The estimation unit estimates at least either of a physical property and an odor degree of the rubber composition based on the peaks identified for the mass chromatograms.

  • Publication number: 20240106964
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus obtains image data that is defined as a first color gamut, transforms the image data into image data that is defined as a second color gamut, using color transformation information, and when, as a result of transformation, a first pair of color values included in the image data is transformed into a second pair of color values that have a color difference that is not perceived as different colors, generates second color transformation information such that the first pair of color values is transformed into a third pair of color values that have a color difference that is perceived as different colors as a result of transformation using the second color transformation information. A saturation difference of the third pair of color values is larger than a saturation difference of the second pair of color values.

  • Publication number: 20240097169
    Abstract: A fuel cell system includes: a fuel cell that generates power by being supplied with a reaction gas; an air pressure regulator that regulates an air pressure, which is a pressure of an oxidant gas passing through the fuel cell; and a control device that controls a power generation amount of the fuel cell. When the air pressure is higher than a predetermined high-pressure reference value while a required output to the fuel cell shows a decreasing tendency, the control device limits or delays a reduction in the power generation amount of the fuel cell in response to a decrease in the required output. Alternatively, when the air pressure is lower than a predetermined low-pressure reference value while the required output to the fuel cell shows an increasing tendency, the control device limits or delays an increase in the power generation amount of the fuel cell.

  • Publication number: 20240083024
    Abstract: A spring constant correction device and method measure a position and attitude of a distal end of an articulated robot when the articulated robot is operated in a state where elastic deformation is compensated, compare measurement values of the position and attitude of the distal end and target values of the position and attitude, and correct a spring constant based on a result of the comparison. In case of the correction, the spring constant is corrected at a predetermined position based on at least three of: an angle of an end point attitude based on the measured attitude; a torque of the distal end in the end point attitude; an angle of the distal end in a target attitude; and a torque of the distal end in the target attitude. A program of such a method is recorded in a recording medium.

  • Publication number: 20240089712
    Abstract: An object is to provide a data collection device and the like capable of reducing a load on an IoT terminal in metadata transmission and power consumption associated with the metadata transmission. In the present invention, a controller is provided on a data collection side that collects metadata, the metadata transmitted from an IoT terminal is grasped, and the IoT terminal is instructed to reduce the transmission frequency of metadata that does not need high real-time property according to a sensor, the type of the IoT terminal, or the like. The IoT terminal transmits the metadata only at a window time (transmission timing, data size, metadata type, or the like) permitted by the metadata controller. As a result, the IoT terminal transmits the metadata only at a limited timing, and thus can reduce a transmission load and power consumption.

  • Patent number: 11922432
    Abstract: An information collection server obtains relevant information relating to legislation, regulations, or standards (vehicle emissions control) from an external server group and a local server and provides the obtained relevant information to an information processing server. When the information processing server receives the relevant information from the information collection server, it performs conversion processing on each piece of information included in the relevant information in accordance with each piece of information to convert each piece of information into an index relating to a degree of influence on revision of the emissions control. The information processing server provides each resultant index to a prediction creation server. When the prediction creation server receives each resultant index from the information processing server, it predicts a stage of revision of the emissions control based on each index.
