  • Publication number: 20200294650
    Abstract: The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a computer, an information processing method, and a network system by which information relating to a trend of a mental or physical state of a subject can be acquired more easily than before. Provided is a computer including: a memory configured to store first data obtained from a strand of hair acquired from a subject and second data obtained from a specimen acquired from the subject, the specimen being different in acquisition time from the strand of hair; and a processor configured to generate a trend of a mental or physical state of the subject based on the first data and the second data.

  • Publication number: 20110091778
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a small fuel cell and a small fuel cell stack each allowing for improved output. Conventionally, in a direct methanol fuel cell, carbon dioxide gas produced at an anode electrode side is exhausted together with a methanol aqueous solution. From the methanol aqueous solution, the carbon dioxide gas is separated, and then the methanol aqueous solution is reused as fuel. In this case, a liquid-gas separation device needs to be provided additionally, which results in a large fuel cell with an increased weight, disadvantageously. The present invention is made to solve such a problem by providing a fuel cell including a first unit cell having a cathode electrode, an electrolyte membrane, an anode electrode, and an anode collector layer in this order; and one or more spacers arranged on the anode collector layer.

  • Publication number: 20110065016
    Abstract: There is provided a fuel cell including a membrane electrode assembly having a cathode electrode, an electrolyte membrane, and an anode electrode in this order, and an anode collector layer. The anode collector layer includes a pair of first walls provided along two opposite sides. The membrane electrode assembly is fitted between the first walls such that the anode electrode faces the anode collector layer. A fuel cell layer employing the fuel cells is also provided. Preferably, the fuel cell further includes a pair of second walls formed on the pair of first walls.
