Abstract: A two-wheeled motor vehicle having a main frame on which a metal structure is mounted, and first and second antennas, disposed outside the main frame in a vehicle width direction, for road-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle communications. The first and second antennas are opposite to each other and are separated by the metal structure of the main frame.

Abstract: A system is arranged to enter information given by a user as voice input or text input, to recognize the contents of the voice input or text input, to generate additional information based on the result of the recognition using database information including dictionaries, and to register entered album pictures associated with the generated additional information in a memory.

Abstract: The invention provides a travel planning system that, in planning travel, enhances serviceability and variety of search subjects. The invention comprises a planning terminal. The planning terminal includes a planning database where information concerning a plurality of travel destinations is stored relating to a plurality of different kinds of search subjects. The planning terminal searches the search subjects in the planning database based on search keys received, depending on the kinds of the search subjects corresponding to the received search keys, searches information concerning travel destinations corresponding to the search subjects related to the search keys, and makes a travel plan which an intending travel thinks is most suitable based on the searched information. When present time reaches scheduled time in a travel plan, the planning terminal transmits to a portable terminal guide information on a scheduled place to corresponding to the scheduled time.

Abstract: The reference position is determined, by using a test piece, for optically detecting the orientation of a component such as a chip for use in placement apparatus such as a chip mounter. Light is emitted from a light source toward a light sensor to cast a shadow of the test piece onto the light sensor. A first position of an end of the shadow when the pick-up device rotates at a first angle, a second position of the other end of the shadow when the pick-up device rotates at a second angle, and a third position of either end of the shadow when the pick-up device rotates at a predetermined third angle, are detected on the light sensor. Accordingly, the positional relationship of the light source, the light sensor, and the pick-up device is determined as a reference position, based on the positional data.
