  • Patent number: 11295489
    Abstract: An information presentation device according to an embodiment includes a contour extraction unit, an abstraction processing unit, and a contour correction unit. The contour extraction unit extracts a contour of each structural object included in data showing a layout of a plurality of structural objects. The abstraction processing unit abstracts a contour of each structural object extracted by the contour extraction unit and draws the abstracted contour on a plane grid surface in which grid lines in two directions orthogonal to each other are drawn. The contour correction unit corrects, among contour lines to constitute a contour abstracted by the abstraction processing unit, a contour line deviating from both of the grid lines in the two directions so as to match a grid line in at least one direction of the grid lines in the two directions.

  • Patent number: 11216995
    Abstract: A visualization system includes: a first creation section configured to create, for each product manufacturing unit, a line segment connecting a start or end time of a first step to a start or end time of a subsequent second step; a second creation section configured to identify, based on a change log of a step characteristic factor at each manufacturing step, any change in step characteristic factor observed at the first and second steps, and to create a display object representing magnitude of the change in step characteristic factor or including a region representing an attribute of the changed step characteristic factor; and a display control section configured to cause: to display a line segment representing the time axis, created by the first creation section, and the display object, and to display the display objects over positions of the start or end times on time axes of their associated steps.

  • Patent number: 10984794
    Abstract: An information processing system according to an embodiment includes a storage, a plurality of conversationers, and a selector. The storage stores a regulation rule indicating a generation rule of a speech in a conversation. Each of the plurality of conversationers makes conversation with a user on the basis of the regulation rule. The selector selects some or all of the plurality of conversationers to cause a conversation to be performed.

  • Publication number: 20150035800
    Abstract: According to an embodiment, an information terminal apparatus includes: a display device equipped with a touch panel; a position detecting section configured to detect a position of a material body in a three-dimensional space opposite to a display surface of the display device; and a command generating section configured to generate a predetermined command for causing predetermined processing to be executed, on the basis of touch position information of a touch position on the touch panel by a touch operation on the touch panel and position-in-space information of the material body in the three-dimensional space detected by the position detecting section after the touch panel is touched or in a state of the touch panel being touched.
