Patent number: 11959775Abstract: Provided is an information processing device and an information processing method that enable simple and appropriate calibration. When a pen-type device incorporating an inertial measurement unit such as an IMU is moved and a drawn image corresponding to a track is displayed, calibration is implemented on the basis of a measurement value of the inertial measurement device in one stationary attitude and a latitude and an absolute azimuth of the inertial measurement device at that time when the pen-type device is inserted into a pen stand to be fixed in a predetermined direction.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: SONY GROUP CORPORATIONInventors: Masato Kimishima, Kosei Yamashita, Toru Amano, Tetsuro Sato

Publication number: 20230270790Abstract: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a life-threatening neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons. Muse cells are endogenous reparative pluripotent-like stem cells distributed to various tissues. Once intravenously injected, such cells, upon sensing sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by damaged cells, settle selectively on damaged sites, and after homing, can exhibit multiphase effects including natural differentiation into tissue-protecting and tissue-reconstructing cells. In the present invention, with G93A-Tg mice serving as an ALS model, human Muse cells injected intravenously successfully homed into the lumbar cord, mainly at the pia mater and the lower white matter, and expressed glial-like forms and GFAP. Meanwhile, no such homing or differentiation was observed in the case of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and, rather, MSCs were found distributed to the lungs.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2021Publication date: August 31, 2023Applicants: NATIONAL UNIVERSITY CORPORATION OKAYAMA UNIVERSITY, TOHOKU UNIVERSITY, LIFE SCIENCE INSTITUTE, INC.Inventors: Koji ABE, Toru YAMASHITA, Mari DEZAWA, Yoshihiro KUSHIDA, Yumiko IWASE
