Abstract: The present invention provides a power-supply management device which can efficiently connect and disconnect power supply to an electric-powered section, and a machine tool including the power-supply management device. The power-supply management device (101) detects a synchronization command of a control program, and compares an operation time of the electric-powered section between synchronizations in each control system which is a synchronization target by the synchronization command on the basis of the detected synchronization command. Then, the power-supply management device (101) disconnects the power supply to the electric-powered section belonging to the control system except the control system having the maximum operation time of the electric-powered section between the synchronizations, and restarts the power supply at the end of the synchronization in each control system.

Abstract: A power consumption output device for an apparatus that manufactures a plurality of products from a quantity of supplied material in a series of repeated cycles, includes a detector for detecting power consumption in a time period that includes at least the time needed for manufacturing all of the products that can be manufactured from a given quantity of supplied material, from the time at which the supply of the material to the apparatus commences to the time at which any remaining material is ejected, and delivers an output indicating power consumption per product by using the power consumption detected by the power detector and the number of products manufactured from the given quantity of supplied material. The device is thus capable of precisely calculating the electricity cost per product manufactured by an apparatus whose power consumption varies from one cycle of operation to another.

Abstract: A game device acquires gazing position information relating to a position where a game player is gazing at a game screen, and a first determination unit determines whether or not the game player is aware of a game character based on the gazing position information and a position of the game character. A second determination unit determines whether or not the game character is aware of a virtual viewpoint or an operation subject of the game player based on the position and a sight line of the game character and a position of the virtual viewpoint or the operation subject of the game player. An action control unit causes the game character to perform an action corresponding to the gazing position information or a predetermined action based on determination results obtained by the first determination unit and the second determination unit.

Abstract: To provide a game device capable of preferably producing an image of a picture in which a first game character loses sight of a second game character having moved so as to disappear from view of the first game character, and thus delays in responding to the second game character. An operation target selection unit (72) selects an operation target character from among the plurality of first game characters. An operation target control unit (74a) changes a state of the first game character selected by the operation target selection unit (72), in the game space, based on a signal input from an operation unit. A selection restriction unit (72b) restricts, in the case where it is determined by the determination unit (72a) that the position of the second game character is included in a determination target area determined based on the position and orientation of the first game character, selection of that first game character by the operation target selection unit (72).

Abstract: To provide a game system capable of preferably producing a picture in which a first game character loses sight of a second game character having moved so as to disappear from the view of the first game character. The present invention relates to a game system for displaying on a display unit (82a) a picture of a display target area in a common game space where a first game character corresponding to a game machine A (10a) and a second game character corresponding to a game machine B (10b) are placed. A position condition determination unit (78a) determines whether or not a position of the second game character included in the display target area satisfies a position condition based on the position and orientation of at least one of the first game characters. A display control unit (80a; display restriction means) restricts display output of the second game character included in the display target area on the display unit (82a), based on a result of determination.

Abstract: To provide a game machine for preferably producing a picture in which a first game character, in the case where a second game character moves so as to disappear from the view of the first game character, loses sight of the second game character and thus does not respond well to the second game character. An operation target control unit (76) causes a first game character to take an action according to an operation signal input from operation means, based on action control information in which an operation signal condition corresponds to each of a plurality of actions. A determination unit (72) determines whether or not a position of a second game character is included within a determination target area in the game space, the area being based on the position and orientation of the first game character.

Abstract: At the time of two-dimensionally moving a mobile body of a machine tool, to a predetermined position, a speed of the mobile body is gently increased/decreased at an acceleration/deceleration equal to or less than the maximum acceleration/deceleration, from the time when the mobile body reaches a direction change point. Therefore, the moving time is shortened and a rapid acceleration/deceleration may be avoided.
