Abstract: An air blowing device and an air blowing system reduces a region where a person cannot be recognized in a space provided with the air blower, and achieves control of the air blower in view of a person in a larger range in the space. The air blower includes: a first sensor configured to detect a position of a human in a first human detection range; a receiver configured to receive a detection result of a second sensor transmitted from a transmitter of a sensor-mounted device, the sensor-mounted device including the second sensor configured to detect a position of a human in a second human detection range; and a controller configured to perform air blowing control when the first sensor does not detect a human in the first human detection range and the second sensor detects a human in the second human detection range.

Abstract: An air-conditioning ventilation system of the present invention includes one or a plurality of air circulation devices configured to circulate air among a plurality of rooms, one or a plurality of air-conditioning apparatuses provided in at least one of the plurality of rooms, a human detector provided in each of the plurality of rooms and configured to detect a human present in a corresponding one of the rooms in which the human detector is provided, an optimal air-conditioning ventilation operation estimating unit configured to estimate presence or absence of any human in each of the plurality of rooms, or a human presence ratio representing a number of humans present per unit time in each of the plurality of rooms, on a basis of a past result of detection by the human detector, and a controller configured to control the air circulation device and the air-conditioning apparatus on a basis of a result of estimation by the optimal air-conditioning ventilation operation estimating unit.

Abstract: A method for managing a defect in an optical disk employed in a recording/reproducing apparatus. The optical disk includes a data area and a preliminary area. Further, the data area includes sectors for storing data and the preliminary area includes alternate sectors for defective sectors occurring after initialization of the optical disk. In the optical disk, physical addresses are assigned to all of the sectors of the data area and the preliminary area in an ascending order. In contrast, logical addresses are assigned to the sectors in an ascending order skipping the defective sectors detected at the time of the initialization and the sectors of the preliminary area.

Abstract: A storage medium provided with a read/write storage region, another read-only storage region and a preliminary storage region for storing data to be stored in defective portions, which are defective in a storing function, of the read/write storage region and the read-only storage region. Thereby, defective portions can suitably be effected even when a read/write storage region and a read-only storage region coexist in a storage medium.
