  • Patent number: 9331792
    Abstract: A receiver of the present invention includes a microphone, an unnecessary signal remover, and an FM detector. The microphone receives a transmission signal generated by frequency modulating a signal in a frequency band that is receivable by the microphone, on the basis of transmission data. The unnecessary signal remover removes unnecessary signal components by processing the received signal from the microphone. The FM detector restores transmission data by performing FM detection of the received signal from which unnecessary signal components were removed by the unnecessary signal remover.

  • Publication number: 20130308829
    Abstract: The present invention is a still image extraction apparatus for extracting a specific frame as a still image from a plurality of frames. The still image extraction apparatus includes: an extraction condition registration device, an extraction determination device, and an extraction device. The extraction condition registration device registers an extraction condition, which is specified by a user of the still image extraction apparatus, for extracting the still image in an extraction condition recording unit. The extraction determination device determines in a frame-by-frame manner whether or not the plurality of frames satisfy the extraction condition registered in the extraction condition recording unit. The extraction device extracts, as a still image, a frame that has been determined to satisfy the extraction condition.
