  • Publication number: 20040053689
    Abstract: A demonstration display method is provided for a game machine which can display various changing display screens of different presentation patterns in a short time, and which a player can enjoy the game machine sufficiently. In the demonstration display method, changing display screens are displayed in which each changing display screen corresponds to a presentation pattern determined on the basis of a predetermined condition from among a plurality of presentation patterns. The demonstrating sequence of the individual presentation patterns is specified on the basis of sequence information in which the demonstrating sequence of the respective presentation patterns is registered, and the changing display screens corresponding to the respective presentation patterns are successively displayed on the display unit in accordance with the specified demonstrating sequence.

  • Publication number: 20040053688
    Abstract: A display method is provided which can let a player continue a game without fatigue or boredom. In the display method, a moving image Gt1 is projection displayed on a predetermined area in the game portion of a game machine from the rear thereof, and a still image Gb1 is projection displayed on the game portion 21a outside the predetermined area from the rear thereof. The projection displays are presented in such a way that the size of the predetermined area for displaying the moving image Gt1, the position of the predetermined area and the number of such predetermined areas are set as parameters, and at least one of the parameters is altered at a predetermined time during the display of the moving image Gt1 and the still image Gb1.

  • Publication number: 20030083052
    Abstract: A guidance information supply system 10 comprises mobile terminals 11 to 13, a computer 32 for acceptance for accepting identification information outputted using a radio wave therefrom, acceptance information accumulation means 51 for accumulating the identification information and guidance information supply means 42 for supplying guidance information to the mobile terminals 11 to 13, an image display device 36 and a projection system 37, all of which are available to a user, based on the accumulated identification information. When the user operates the mobile terminals 11 to 13 to output an ID, a server supplies various guidance information to the user and therefore, the user is able to obtain the guidance information indicative of items of services the user requests without submitting a consultation ticket, whereby the system is able to provide comfortable environment in which the user easily enjoy services.

  • Patent number: 4838707
    Abstract: An electronic thermometer is provided in which the number of pulses counted in a first count and the number of pulses counted in a second count are respectively proportional to the resistance of a reference resistance and that of a thermosensing element. When the first counted value is to be adjusted so as to realize the absolute value adjustment of the thermometer, the difference between the resistance of the thermosensing element and the resistance of the reference resistor is adjusted by varying the number of counts in a counter upon whose content the timing of the second count depends. Accordingly, the absolute value precision adjustment of the electronic thermometer is realized by providing an initial logic adjustment circuit in which the number of the first clock counts is appropriately varied.
