  • Patent number: 11977323
    Abstract: An optical system includes first and second lens units configured to move to have a component of direction perpendicular to an optical axis, in which a sign of an amount of movement of the lens units is defined as negative for a moving direction of the first lens unit and as positive for an opposite direction to the moving direction of the first lens unit, a product of an amount of movement and a focal length of the first lens unit and a product of an amount of movement and a focal length of the second lens unit are different from each other in sign, and Petzval sums of the first and second lens unit, a focal length of the optical system, and a back focus of the optical system are set.

  • Publication number: 20230350271
    Abstract: An optical system configured to perform tilt image-capturing includes an object-side lens unit, a first lens unit having a positive refractive power, a second lens unit having a positive refractive power, and a third lens unit having a negative refractive power which are arranged in order from an object side. The first lens unit and the third lens unit move in a direction including a component of a direction perpendicular to an optical axis for tilt image-capturing. The object-side lens unit and the second lens unit do not move in a direction including a component of a direction perpendicular to the optical axis for tilt image-capturing.

  • Patent number: 11216836
    Abstract: A computer system performs display control to display a reward advertisement at a given screen switching timing, a screen switching timing due to start or end of a game progress unit, or a timing at which a game progression satisfies a given change condition. The computer system gives a reward for watching the advertisement to a player. The reward is set based on user data and/or play data of the player related to the game.

  • Patent number: 11202962
    Abstract: An advertisement that has been watched by a friend but has not been watched by a target player is controlled to be displayed at a timing satisfying a timing condition defining a timing at which the advertisement is displayed, in a game played by the target player. At that time, information indicating that the advertisement has been watched by the friend is also controlled to be displayed. A reward for watching the advertisement is given to the target player. The reward changes in accordance with the number of the friends who have watched the advertisement and a friendship level of the friend. The target player is further notified that the advertisement has been watched by the friend, and thus the reward has changed.

  • Patent number: 11188942
    Abstract: When a player sets an acquisition target item to be an item he or she wants at a timing of creating a plan, actually required points that are required for acquiring the acquisition target item is determined. Then, options of the advertisement plan in which one or a plurality of advertisements are listed so that watching points reaching the actually required points can be acquired, from options of advertisements that can be watched in exchange for the watching points. When any of the plans is selected and confirmed, an advertisement is displayed based on the plan, and the watching points are given to the player. When the sum of the watching points given reaches the actually required points, the acquisition target item in the plan is given to the player.
