  • Publication number: 20240087918
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a substrate processing apparatus has a treatment tank, a holder to hold the substrate while in the treatment tank, a chemical discharge pipe below a position of the holder for supplying a chemical solution to the treatment tank, a bubble discharge pipe below the position of the holder for discharging a gas. The first bubble discharge pipe is closer along a horizontal direction to a centerline of the treatment tank than is the chemical discharge pipe. A rectifying plate is disposed below the position of the holder and extends from a position above the chemical discharge pipe to a position above the first bubble discharge pipe at an incline with respect to the first direction horizontal.

  • Patent number: 11559261
    Abstract: A gait motion display system including: a triaxial accelerometer, attached to the subject, that measures acceleration data of a subject in walking; an imaging unit that takes images of the subject in walking to obtain moving image data showing gait motions of the subject; a recording unit that records the acceleration data and the moving image data in synchronization with each other; an identification unit that converts the acceleration data recorded by the recording unit into horizontal displacement data and vertical displacement data, and identifies, from the moving image data, a representative image corresponding to a representative motion in a gait cycle, based on the horizontal displacement data or the vertical displacement data; and a display that displays an image illustration of the representative motion in the gait cycle, with the representative image identified by the identification unit.

  • Patent number: 10881329
    Abstract: A motion display system includes: a detector that detects an acceleration of a body part of a test subject; an imager that generates a moving image by imaging a motion of the test subject; an identifier that is attached to the test subject to determine a position of the body part within the moving image; a superimposer that superimposes a motion trajectory of the body part generated based on the acceleration detected by the detector on a position of the body part determined based on the identifier within the moving image generated by the imager in synchronization with the moving image; and a display that displays the moving image on which the motion trajectory is superimposed by the superimposer.

  • Publication number: 20200220743
    Abstract: An activity management device includes a data acquirer, an inferrer, an information acquirer, and an outputter. The data acquirer acquires in-residence data relating to a living environment of a user and acquired in a residence of the user. The inferrer infers a past or future change event in the lifestyle pattern of the user based on the in-residence data acquired by the data acquirer. The information acquirer acquires recommendation information which is information corresponding to the change event inferred by the inferrer and which prompts the user to perform an activity according to the change in the lifestyle pattern. The outputter outputs the recommendation information acquired by the information acquirer.

  • Publication number: 20170116686
    Abstract: In order to reduce demand power on utility grid through electrical energy storage and suppress reduction in remaining capacity of electrical energy storage, power supply control apparatus includes judging module and estimator. Judging module judges whether to allow electrical energy storage to feed power into electrical load within target period while electrical energy storage in building is requested to feed power into electrical load. Estimator performs estimation of present state in which user of electrical load is present in building or absent state in which user is absent from building. Judging module judges to allow electrical energy storage to feed power when estimation by estimator is present state, within target period and judges to prohibit electrical energy storage from feeding power when estimation by estimator is absent state, within target period.

  • Publication number: 20160371593
    Abstract: An inferrer calculates, for each kind of living activities, an occurrence probability defining a probability that a corresponding living activity occurs, based on an operational state of an electric appliance determined by a detector for each of sections at an inference target time by use of prior probabilities, first conditional probabilities, and second conditional probabilities, and infers that a living activity having a highest occurrence probability has occurred at inference target time. Prior probabilities each define a probability at which a corresponding living activity occurs in one day. First conditional probabilities each define active and inactive probabilities of electric appliance belonging to a corresponding section under a condition where a corresponding living activity occurs.
