Abstract: A sensor device includes an antenna and a reflector. The antenna transmits a radio wave as a transmission wave and receives a reflected wave. The reflector has a first reflecting portion that reflects a first transmission wave which is one of transmission waves, and a first reflected wave which is one of reflected waves. The sensor device has a first detection area and a second detection area. The first detection area receives a direct transmission wave, which is one of the transmission waves directly transmitted without being reflected by the reflector, while the second detection area receives the first transmission wave reflected by the first reflecting portion.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a storage unit and a computing unit. The computing unit accepts a registration of trust relationship information indicating a trust relationship between specified users among a plurality of registered users, and stores the trust relationship information in the storage unit. When receiving an instruction to display a relationship between a first user and a second user, the computing unit displays a correlation diagram of trust relationships in a range of trust relationships linked between the first user and the second user, and information indicating a trust relationship registered for trust to the second user, irrespective of the range, in parallel to each other.

Abstract: An image recording apparatus includes a first pullout unit, a second pullout unit, and a first lock mechanism. The first unit is movable along a first axis between a first retracted position where the first unit is fully retracted in the apparatus, and a first exposed position where at least one side surface thereof is fully exposed to the front of the apparatus. The second unit is movable along a second axis, which is perpendicular to the first axis, between a second retracted position where the second unit is fully retracted in the first unit, and a second exposed position where the second unit is exposed to a side of the side surface of the first unit. The first lock mechanism prevents movement of the second unit from the second retracted position to the second exposed position when the first unit is not in the first exposed position.

Abstract: For an image display apparatus, cost reduction is enabled to prevent display errors while ensuring operational margin to prevent display errors even when the delay time of gate line driving signals is large. A source driver of a liquid-crystal display apparatus includes a data latch circuit for supplying display data to a decode circuit. A gate line inactivation transition detecting circuit detects inactivation of each of a plurality of gate lines and activates a detect signal for a certain period with that timing. The data latch circuit updates the held display data in response to activation of the detect signal.

Abstract: A control portion obtains a first difference in a movement amount between paper passing period and paper non-passage period of a transfer belt, and determines whether or not a first absolute value thereof is a first threshold value or more. In a case where the first absolute value is the first threshold value or more, a transfer belt unit positional adjustment motor is driven to adjust a first angle with respect to a first direction of a transfer belt unit with respect to a photoreceptor drum. In a case where the first absolute value is less than the first threshold value, a second absolute value of a second difference between a movement amount and a designed value set in advance of the transfer belt is obtained, and whether or not the second absolute value is a second threshold value or more is determined.
