Abstract: A light measurement device measures the intensity of laser light output from a catheter tip end portion of a catheter having a built-in optical fiber. The light measurement device includes a light receiving part which receives the laser light output from the catheter tip end portion and a mounting part which is disposed at a position facing the light receiving part. The mounting part defines a position of a tubular hoop, which accommodates the catheter, with respect to the light receiving part. In a state in which the position of the hoop is defined by the mounting part, the light measurement device obtains the intensity of the laser light by inputting the laser light to the light receiving part.

Abstract: This display device is provided with: a gate driver that drives a display panel; and a control circuit that controls driving of the gate driver. The control circuit is provided with: a Voltage supply circuit that supplies a Voltage to the gate driver; and a current detection circuit that detects a current to be supplied to the gate driver. The display device reduces, in stages, the voltage to be supplied to the gate driver, and detects the current to be supplied to the gate driver, and in the cases where the detected current is equal to or lower than a predetermined value or a current increase is detected, the display device acquires a first voltage being supplied to the gate driver, and sets a second voltage as a drive voltage for driving the gate driver, said second voltage being obtained by adding a predetermined voltage to the acquired first voltage.

Abstract: A display control device includes a video data acquiring unit that acquires video data from a plurality of cameras photographing a periphery of a vehicle, a bird's-eye view video generator that applies view point conversion processing and synthesis processing to the video data to generate a bird's-eye view video, an adjacent information acquiring unit that acquires first obstacle information serving as information about obstacles around the vehicle when the vehicle has moved backward and entered the parked state, and second obstacle information serving as the information about the obstacles around the vehicle when the vehicle moves forward to exit the parked state, a comparing unit that compares the first obstacle information with the second obstacle information to determine whether the number of obstacles around the vehicle has increased when the vehicle exits the parked state, and a display controller.

The second gate drive circuit supplies each gate line with a second gate drive signal from each opposite end of the plurality of gate lines. The first gate slope formation unit forms a gate slope which is a falling slope in the signal waveform of the first gate drive signal. The second gate slope formation unit forms a gate slope of the second gate drive signal independently of the first gate slope formation unit.
