Abstract: A microscopy system and method use super-resolution to generate the equivalent of a digital holographic image. Through super-resolution, images of nanoscale sized objects may be captured without interrupting the object (for example, a virus) or the object's environment. The information gathered through super-resolution techniques may be transformed into holographic replications of the object which may be analyzed with greater accuracy of the object.

Abstract: The present invention is an information processing apparatus which obtains identification information of an electronic device and makes communication with the electronic device via a network based on the identification information. When a portable telephone (11) is placed on an input display section (2) of a personal computer (1), a reader/writer built in the personal computer (1) reads a telephone number of the portable telephone (11) stored in an RF tag built in the portable telephone (11). Based on the telephone number, a telephone line is connected between the portable telephone (11) and the personal computer (1). Data is interchanged between the portable telephone (11) and the personal computer (1) via the telephone line.

Abstract: A user interface for a network media channel allows subscribers to share media files according to ad-hoc specification via kernels. The user interface may be accessed via a device and it may be utilized to create and/or modify media files and/or kernels and to transmit them to one or more networks including one or more servers that stores the media files according to the kernels. The user interface may be used further to receive one or more media files and to display them according to the kernels. The user interface may be used further to navigate thru the media files by clicking (activating) the media files.

Abstract: An interactive projection system for displaying an image on a planar surface includes a base, a projector, a convex mirror, and at least one support. The base is disposed on the planer surface. The projector is housed in the base. The projector has an image projecting portion that projects an image along a projection path away from the projector. The at least one support is connected to the base and supports the convex mirror at a position along the projection path so as to face the image projecting portion of the projector and the planar surface.
