Abstract: An image reading apparatus includes an image reading unit, a document pressing unit, a first position detection unit, a second position detection unit, and a controller. The image reading unit reads an image of a document. The document pressing unit presses the document against a document placement component. The first position detection unit detects a first closed position at which the document pressing unit is not in contact with the document placement component. The second position detection unit detects a second closed position that is closer to the document placement component than the first closed position is. The controller performs first width detection on the document and further performs second width detection. The first width detection is performed in accordance with detection performed by the first position detection unit on a closing operation of the document pressing unit.

Abstract: A resin composition includes a thermoplastic resin, a carbon fiber, a resin containing at least one of an amide bond and an imide bond that includes a first resin containing at least one of an amide bond and an imide bond and having such a melting temperature that a difference in melting temperature between the first resin and the thermoplastic resin is from 0° C. to 90° C. and a second resin containing at least one of an amide bond and an imide bond and having a melting temperature which is higher than that of the thermoplastic resin and that of the first resin, and a compatibilizer.
Abstract: A photoreceptor comprises a conductive substrate. An undercoat layer is disposed on the conductive substrate. The undercoat layer includes modified metal oxide particles and a binder resin, the modified metal oxide particles comprising metal oxide particles having an outer surface and hygroscopic polymers attached to the surface. The hygroscopic polymers are made by linking a hydrophilic polymer group to the metal oxide particles using a dithiofunctionalized phosphonatomethylaryl ligand that acts as the linking group. A photosensitive layer is disposed on the undercoat layer.
Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image holding unit, a transfer unit, a first-resistance detection unit, a second-resistance detection unit, and a selection unit. The image holding unit holds an image. The transfer unit includes a transfer member and a counter member. The transfer member is disposed in contact with an image holding surface of the image holding unit. The counter member is disposed across the image holding unit from the transfer member. The counter member is connected to a transfer power supply to cause a transfer electric field to act on a transfer region between the image holding unit and the transfer member. The transfer unit causes the image held by the image holding unit to be electrostatically transferred onto a recording medium transported to the transfer region. The first-resistance detection unit detects system resistance of the counter member, the image holding unit, and the transfer member.
Abstract: Example implementations described herein are directed to systems and methods for providing documents in the chat of a chat application. Example implementations can involve detecting, in a chat of a chat application, an indication to edit a document; inserting a fragment of the document into the chat of the chat application, the fragment configured to be editable within the chat of the chat application; and modifying the document based on input provided to the fragment of the document in the chat of the chat application.

Abstract: A system and method for treatment of thread includes a thread printer that applies colored coatings to thread and that passes the treated thread to a fabric weaving system. A camera is positioned to capture images of the treated thread as it is woven into a fabric in the fabric weaving system. The system processes the images to determine whether the location of a selected segment of the treated thread in the fabric corresponds to an expected location in the fabric. If the actual location of the selected segment corresponds to the expected location, the system will continue instructing the thread printer to selectively apply the colored coatings to the thread according to the pattern. However, if the actual location does not correspond to the expected location, the system will modify the pattern so that thread printer adjusts the size of a segments to automatically account for the misalignment.

Abstract: A silica composite particle includes a silica particle and a compound in which a metal atom selected from the group consisting of Ti, Al, Zr, V, and Mg bonds to an organic group through oxygen, the silica particle being surface-treated with the compound. A coverage of a surface of the silica composite particle with the metal atom is 0.01 at % or more and 30 at % or less. When a binding energy peak of O1s in an oxide of the metal atom is assumed to be MO1s, a binding energy peak of O1s in SiO2 is assumed to be SO1s, and a binding energy peak of O1s in the silica composite particle is assumed to be MSO1s, the binding energy peaks being detected by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, the formula 0.000452×X2?0.059117×X+SO1s<MSOs?(SO1s?MO1s)/100×X+SO1s is satisfied.
