  • Patent number: 10149096
    Abstract: A transmission unit transmits a signal to a relay station. A reception unit receives a signal from the relay station if the transmission unit does not transmit a signal. A control unit determines whether to (1) perform continuous transmission by the transmission unit or (2) perform communication in which transmission by the transmission unit and reception by the reception unit are alternately switched, based on the positional information acquired in the positional information acquisition unit and the communication area information acquired in the communication area information acquisition unit.

  • Publication number: 20180341220
    Abstract: In a process of manufacturing the volume holographic element, a holographic material layer is irradiated with reference light from the side of a second substrate in the oblique direction, and the holographic material layer is vertically irradiated with object light from the side of a first substrate in an interference exposure process. Since a first translucent anti-reflective layer is formed on the first surface of the first substrate, it is difficult that situation in which the reference light is reflected in the first surface in the oblique direction occurs. In addition, since a second translucent anti-reflective layer is formed on the second surface of the second substrate, it is difficult that a situation in which the object light is reflected in the second surface occurs.

  • Publication number: 20180238790
    Abstract: An analysis device includes a turntable, an optical pickup, and a controller. The turntable holds a disc for specimen analysis having a reaction region on which fine particles binding to substances to be detected are captured per track. The optical pickup emits laser light to the reaction region, receives a reflected light from the reaction region, and generates a reception level signal of the light. The controller sequentially generates a plurality of measurement gate signals per track for counting the number of the fine particles captured on the reaction region, counts the number of the fine particles per measurement gate signal from the reception level signal, compares measurement results obtained in positions having a symmetric relation with each other in the reaction region, and defines a measurement-result-correction target region for correcting the number of the fine particles.

  • Publication number: 20170276496
    Abstract: A determiner determines execution of rerouting. A notifier notifies the execution of rerouting if the determiner determines the execution of rerouting. A searcher executes a rerouting search if the determiner determines the execution of rerouting. A measurer measures the distance by which a navigation device has moved along a guide route, which is a result of the rerouting search by the searcher. In a case in which the determiner determines execution of next rerouting, the notifier notifies the execution of rerouting if the measured distance is longer than a threshold value and does not notify the execution of rerouting if the measured distance is smaller than or equal to the threshold value.
