Abstract: A device for fatigue warning in motor vehicles includes a driver sensor system for detecting driver fatigue conditions and a run-up alarm system which has an environment sensor system. The alarm system is designed to output a warning signal and/or perform a control action in the drive and/or brake system of the vehicle when the distance to a preceding vehicle drops below a warning distance. The run-up alarm system has a setting device which is configured to modify the warning distance as a function of the detected fatigue condition.

Abstract: A display portion of a camera-equipped electronic device has a display screen on the same side as a lens portion of a camera unit. The display portion includes an input portion enabled with a signal from a main control unit, an image storage portion and a register for receiving a signal from the input portion, a display control portion, a drive portion, and a display panel having the display screen. With this configuration, the display control portion provides control to the functions of the display panel to be switched between a normal display function and an illuminating function for use with the camera unit. Thus, in the camera-equipped electronic device, the display portion having the illuminating function for use in photographing can provide good images in self photographing and supports for a more compact device body while ensuring high visibility and capability of displaying an increased amount of information.

Abstract: An information recording apparatus encodes distributed information which is music information to be recorded distributed via a network in a specific encoding scheme for allowing decode by a plurality of types of information reproducing apparatuses, records the encoded music information and also records the distributed information as-is in a distribution method thereof, and further records address information indicating a position having the encoded music information recorded and address information indicating a position having the distributed information recorded as-is in the distribution method recorded. And when the distributed information is moved to the outside after being recorded, it deletes the address information corresponding to the moved distributed information.
