Abstract: An information processing apparatus (2000) detects an abnormal region (30) from a moving image frame (14). The abnormal region (30) is a region that is estimated to represent an abnormal part inside a body of a subject. The information processing apparatus (2000) generates and outputs output information based on the number of detected abnormal regions (30).

Abstract: A rotary encoder 10 comprises a rotary shaft 12 supported for rotation about its axis AX and a disk 16 made of an insulating substrate with a conductive pattern 17 formed on a side surface thereof. The rotary shaft 12 has a pair of axially-extending, threaded holes 14a and 14b formed therein at its one end. The desk 14 is fixedly secured to the rotary shaft 12 by means of a pair of set screws 19a and 19b threadably engaged into the threaded holes 14a and 14b formed in the rotary shaft 12 such that the disk 16 is rotatable about a rotational center defined by the axis AX of the rotary shaft 12. A plurality of electrical contacts 20a-20e are fixedly mounted on a circuit board 22 and so arranged as to be in contact with the conductive pattern 17 depending on the angular position of the disk 16 such that various combinations of the electrical contacts 20a-20e may be electrically interconnected one another depending on the angular position of the disk 16.

Abstract: An optical system comprises a pentagonal roof prism and a transparent plate. A rear surface of the pentagonal roof prism is provided with a triangular recessed portion. The wall of the recessed portion is frosted. The transparent plate is a triangular plate, slightly smaller than that of the recessed portion, and is applied to the wall of the recessed portion. The obverse face of the transparent plate is a transparent or polished surface. The transparent plate is applied to the recessed portion with adhesive having photo-transmissibility. It is preferable that the adhesive does not shrink when hardening.

Abstract: A prism has a notch at a lower end of a third reflection plane of a pentagonal roof prism. The notch has a frosted wall, on which a transparent plate is adhered with adhesive. A miniature prism is adhered to the transparent plate with adhesive. The adhesive has photo-transmissibility, so that a transparent plane is formed between the pentagonal prism, the transparent plate and the miniature prism. Information displayed by an indication device is directed to an eyepiece optical system, via a mirror and the miniature prism.

Abstract: A release switch is directly activated by a self-timer button, and a shutter release button first activates a photometric switch, then the release switch. The self-timer operation is carried out in response to the activation of only the release switch, a photometric operation is carried out in response to the activation of only the photometric switch, and a shutter release operation is carried out in response to the secuential activation of both the photometric switch and the release switch.
