  • Publication number: 20170161956
    Abstract: A head-mounted display device includes an image display section, an imaging section, an image setting section, an object specification section configured to specify a specific object from within an outside scene captured by the imaging section, and a parameter setting section. The image setting section causes the image display section to display a marker image. After the parameter setting section determines that a user's head is substantially in a static condition, the image setting section provides information on time left for the imaging section to capture the outside scene. The parameter setting section obtains an image captured by the imaging section when the time expires.

  • Publication number: 20160272659
    Abstract: Titanium coordination complexes, particularly titanium catecholate complexes, can be attractive active materials for use in flow batteries. However, such coordination complexes can be difficult to prepare from inexpensive starting materials, particularly in aqueous solutions. Titanium oxychloride and titanium tetrachloride represent relatively inexpensive titanium sources that can be used for preparing such coordination complexes. Methods for preparing titanium catecholate complexes can include combining one or more catecholate ligands and titanium oxychloride in an aqueous solution, and reacting the one or more catecholate ligands with the titanium oxychloride in the aqueous solution to form the titanium catecholate complex. Titanium tetrachloride can be used as a precursor for forming the titanium oxychloride in situ. In some instances, the titanium catecholate complex can be isolated in a solid form, which can be substantially free of alkali metal ions.
