Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a communication interface and a processor. The processor performs an action determination process to detect an image of another moveable body from a surrounding image of a moveable body and determine an action of the moveable body based on a state of the other moveable body. The communication interface outputs information instructing to perform the action to the moveable body. As the action determination process, the processor determines a first action of the moveable body based on a first state of the other moveable body detected from the surrounding image and outputs information instructing to perform the first action to the moveable body. The processor determines a second action of the moveable body when judging that the other moveable body is driving recklessly based on a second state of the other moveable body detected from a surrounding image captured after the first action.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus (10) includes a storage (13), a controller (14), and an output interface (15). The controller (14) detects an image of an object from a captured image. The controller (14) stores a newly detected state of the object by including the newly detected state in a state history of the object stored in the storage (13). The controller (14) determines an action of a moveable body (1) based on the state history stored in the storage. The output interface (15) outputs, to the moveable body, information with an instruction to perform the determined action of the moveable body (1).

Abstract: An anaerobic incubator providing for a consistently anaerobic and constant-temperature environment within an incubation jar for culture of root canal contents which comprises an incubator body, an open-top incubation jar disposed in said incubator body and comprising an outer cylindrical casing made of aluminum and, as fitted intimately therein, an inner cylindrical casing made of stainless steel, a planar heater disposed in intimate contact with the exterior surface of said outer cylindrical casing, and a temperature sensor mounted in the wall of said outer cylindrical casing. The anaerobic incubator of the invention does not require a time-consuming procedure particularly for changing water, is free from aging of heater and temperature sensor performances, and provides for improved responsiveness and controllability of the incubation jar.
