Abstract: Disclosed is a medical apparatus with an IC chip. The medical apparatus includes a housing including a metallic part having a predetermined opening part, and an IC chip module having two conductive members, the conductive members being arranged on respective sides of the IC chip supplied with electricity via the conductive members. The IC chip module is attached such that the conductive members are arranged close to or on respective sides in a width direction of the predetermined opening part of the housing.

Abstract: An information providing system includes a passenger conveyor having a handrail belt and a storage unit that stores a first tag identification information. A portable terminal reads the first tag identification information and transmits the first tag identification information and a portable terminal identification information. The information providing system further includes an information providing device to transmit a providing information corresponding to the first tag identification information and the portable terminal identification information.

Abstract: A surface-condition-information obtaining unit obtains information on a surface condition of a rewritable display medium on which information is reversely displayed visually. A write-laser output unit outputs a write laser to irradiate the rewritable display medium with the write laser, to perform a drawing on the rewritable display medium. A control unit performs a write process for displaying an image on the rewritable display medium by adjusting a laser output condition based on the information obtained by the surface-condition-information obtaining unit and controlling the write-laser output unit based on an adjustment of the laser output condition.

Abstract: When an optical recording device of a recording apparatus that is for executing optical recording of information on an optical disk records data on an optical disk, it obtains information by which the content of the data optically recorded can be guessed from the data recorded or from data of the recording apparatus. An image representing the obtained information by which the content of the data can be guessed is formed on a thermosensitive medium provided on the optical disk.

Abstract: A recoding apparatus includes an optical recording device that optically records information on an optical disk and an image forming apparatus that forms an image on a thermosensitive medium provided on the optical disk. When a moving image of a TV broadcast program is recorded on the optical disk by the optical recording device, it is possible to obtain information of TV broadcast such as a TV broadcast itself, an electronic program guide and the like, information held by the present recording apparatus or information relating to the program recorded by the optical recording device from information recorded on the optical disk. Then, the obtained information is image-formed on the thermosensitive medium provided on the optical disk by the image forming device.
