Abstract: A slave robot moves in conjunction with a change of a posture of an operator in a remote control system. A capture device acquires a signal indicating a posture of an operator's body. A control apparatus includes a receiving controller that receives a signal indicating a posture of the slave robot from the slave robot and receives the signal indicating the posture of the operator's body from the capture device, a posture comparing part that acquires a posture error indicating a difference between the posture of the slave robot and the posture of the operator, and a motion connecting part that transmits, to the slave robot, an operation signal for operating the slave robot generated on the basis of the change in the posture of the operator on a condition that the posture error is within a predetermined threshold range.

Abstract: Memory cells which have read noise are identified during a programming pass and an amount of programming is increased for noisy memory cells compared to non-noisy cells. The read noise is indicated by a decrease in the threshold voltage of a cell when the cell is repeatedly read. In one approach, during the programming pass, a cell enters a temporary lockout state when it passes a first verify test and is subject to one or more additional verify tests. Data is stored to identify the cell as a noisy cell or a non-noisy cell based on the one or more additional verify tests. Or, the cells are subject to the one or more additional verify tests at the end of the programming pass. In a subsequent programming pass, the noisy cell is programmed using a stricter verify condition. Or, the noisy cell is kept in an erased state.

Abstract: Memory cells which have read noise are identified during a programming pass and an amount of programming is increased for noisy memory cells compared to non-noisy cells. The read noise is indicated by a decrease in the threshold voltage of a cell when the cell is repeatedly read. During the programming pass, a cell enters a temporary lockout state when it passes a first verify test. In this state, the cell is subject to one or more additional verify tests. If the one or more additional verify tests indicate that the threshold voltage of a cell has decreased, the cell is noisy and is soft programmed before being permanently locked out. In contrast, programming of a non-noisy cell is concluded after the first verify test without further programming.
