Abstract: In a data processing apparatus, a specific portion of document data constructed of plural pages, for example, headlines of all pages is displayed within a single display screen. Since a cursor is moved to a certain headline of the document data displayed on the display screen so as to select desired document data, a user can readily find out a desired page within the document data.
Abstract: A filter device has a variable frequency cut-off characteristic as well as a variable gain characteristic. To obtain these characteristics, a filtering operation is performed on data input thereto on the basis of a transmission function, which is defined by gain G for predetermined frequencies and a frequency fo corresponding to a phase at an intersection of a unit circle and a straight line intersecting at right angles a real axis passing a midpoint between a polar and a zero point on the real axis on Z-plane. An electronic musical instrument employing the filter device can change amplitudes of frequency components involved in musical tones on the basis of performance data, generating musical tones involving complex harmonics and having various tone colors, as a conventional acoustic instrument does.
Abstract: A disk stores an application program for defining items to be set in a slip image stored/held in a disk and their layout positions. When another slip image similar to this slip image is designated, and part of the slip form is to be modified in accordance with this other slip image, a modification command is input from a keyboard. A definition control section then registers the modification contents in a disk. A modifier section creates a new application program corresponding to the other slip image on the basis of the modification contents in the disk and the definition contents in the disk.

Abstract: A decompression data display device which calculates during a diver's dive the partial pressure of an inert gas in each of the tissues of the diver's body with the tissues having different half saturation times. The inert gas partial pressure of the inspired gas is compared with each of the partial pressures of the respective inert gases solved in the tissues to determine whether the inert gas is being discharged or absorbed. When the inert gas is being discharged, the respective inert gas partial pressure values in the tissues are calculated from an arithmetic expression different from an arithmetic expression used when the inert gas is being absorbed, and decompression data is obtained from the respective calculated inert gas partial pressure values in the tissues.
Abstract: In the first laser beam radiation, a laser beam having a predetermined energy density is scanned on each of predetermined unit irradiated regions at a scanning pitch smaller than the beam size, and in the second laser beam radiation, a laser beam having an energy density lower than that of the laser beam of the first radiation is scanned at a scanning pitch smaller than the beam size on each of unit irradiated regions different from those of the first laser beam radiation.
Abstract: An electronic device for a vehicle detects the number of rotations of a wheel of a vehicle, calculates the distance covered by the vehicle, measures the atmospheric pressure to provide data on the atmospheric pressure, obtains a height corresponding to the measured atmospheric pressure from a height-atmospheric pressure conversion table stored in a RAM on the basis of the measured atmospheric pressure data, calculates an tilt of a road where the vehicle travels on the basis of the height and the measured covered distance, detects a gear corresponding to the calculated tilt from a gear change conversion table, drives a transmission to put the gear in the meshed state. In order to apply a barometer to a weather forecast, an actual height where the vehicle travels is calculated on the basis of data on a tilt of the road measured by an inclinometer attached to the vehicle and the calculated covered distance.
Abstract: A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device, in which predetermined portions of two glass plates bonded to each other with a sealing member interposed therebetween and constituting the display device, can be cut without turning over the bonded two glass plates and without breaking necessary portions thereof. In the method of manufacturing the liquid crystal display device, first, an upper one of the bonded two glass plates is half cut from its upper surface with a blade, and unnecessary portions of the upper glass plate are removed by the use of a vacuum suction head. Thereafter, predetermined portions of exposed portions of a lower one of the bonded two glass plates are fully cut with the blade. In accordance with it, it is not necessary to turn over the the bonded two glass plates-to cut it into a plurality of units, and, therefore, a cutting process can be performed automatically.
Abstract: An image data processor, for use in a device which plays a battle game, a congeniality divination game, etc., includes a designating unit which is operated to designate respective parts of objects in order to display those object images on a display. A determining unit determines superiority or inferiority between the respective displayed object images on the basis of scores corresponding to part images constituting the respective displayed object images. The respective object images are changed depending on the results of the determination and the resulting object images are then displayed on the display. When the designating unit designates any part of the object, a score corresponding to that portion is read out, and data on the appropriate object image is displayed on the display depending on the read out score.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display element includes one substrate on which pixel electrodes and TFTs connected to the pixel electrodes are arranged in a matrix form, the other substrate on which a counter electrode opposing the pixel electrodes is formed, and a ferroelectric liquid crystal sealed between the substrates and having a helical pitch smaller than a distance between the substrates. A row driver is connected to the TFTs to sequentially turn on the active elements. A column driver applies an initializing voltage consisting of first and second reset pulses for sequentially setting the ferroelectric liquid crystal in the first and second aligned states and a write voltage changing in accordance with the display gradation levels to the pixel electrodes through the ON active elements, thereby performing gradation display.
Abstract: A data processing apparatus is provided with a part memory, which stores a plurality of part patterns of each of components which compose an object. A video signal of an image of the object, a montage of which is to be composed, is entered through an image-data input unit to an image memory to be stored therein. Image data stored in the image memory includes component-image data corresponding to the components. The component image data corresponding to a component is read out in accordance with basic position data of the component stored in a basic position memory. The plurality of part patterns stored in the part memory are compared with the component-image data in a pattern matching unit. The part patterns of the highest degree of resemblance are selected with respect to all the components, and are combined to be displayed on a display unit.
Abstract: A word processor with an automatic layout function which automatically moves a possible figure, related to a text of a document to be moved in an automatic layout process, in conjunction with the movement of the text. For example, when a text surrounded in a horizontally long rectangular frame figure and related in position to the figure is to be shifted rightward, a CPU analyses the layout structure of the document the data on which is stored in a document memory 12-1, stores data on the result of the analysis in an analysis data buffer 12-3 and determines whether the result of the analysis meets layout rules the data on which is set in an edition rule dictionary memory 12-2. In this case, if the text data does not meet the layout rules and the text data is to be moved rightward, the horizontally long frame figure related in position to the text is also moved automatically rightward in conjunction with the movement of the text.
