Abstract: Provided is a cradle for supporting input devices having grips and tracked parts extending from the grips, the cradle including rear support parts that are capable of supporting rear parts of the grips, front support parts that are positioned forward away from the rear support parts and are capable of supporting front parts of the grips of the input devices, and, side support parts that are positioned outside in a left-right direction with respect to the rear support parts and the front support parts and are capable of supporting the tracked parts.

Abstract: An acquisition unit 104 acquires from a server a status of a friend user. A menu image generation unit 110 generates a menu image including an icon. A user image placement unit 116 places, on the periphery of the icon, images of friend users whose statuses acquired by the acquisition unit 104 are related to the icon. The icon is an icon representing content, and the user image placement unit 116 places, on the periphery of the icon, an image of a friend user currently performing the content.

Abstract: A data collection apparatus includes a processor and a storage. The processor is configured to: estimate an emotion of a person watching an own vehicle on the basis of an image data of a surrounding environment of the own vehicle; generate emotion data including an estimate of the emotion of the person watching the own vehicle; specify a state of the own vehicle viewed by the person watching the own vehicle; and correlate the emotion data with the specified state of the own vehicle. The storage is configured to be caused by the processor to store the emotion data correlated with the specified state of the own vehicle.

Abstract: An input device includes: a plurality of input members; an upper surface having a right region in which a part of the plurality of input members is disposed, a left region in which another part of the plurality of input members is disposed, and a center region that is a region between the right region and the left region; and a light emitting region formed along an outer edge of the center region. The light emitting region includes a first light emitting portion configured to indicate identification information assigned to a plurality of input devices connected to an information processing apparatus, and a second light emitting portion configured to emit light based on information different from the identification information.

Abstract: A solid immersion lens unit includes a solid immersion lens having a contact surface for coming into contact with semiconductor device formed of a silicon substrate and a spherical surface to be disposed to face an objective lens; a holder holding the solid immersion lens; and an optical element held by the holder to be positioned between the objective lens and the solid immersion lens. The solid immersion lens transmits light having at least a part of wavelength in a range of 200 nm or greater and 1100 nm or lower. The optical element corrects aberration caused by a difference in refractive indices between the silicon substrate and the solid immersion lens.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an input device including: a cabinet including an upper cabinet section and a lower cabinet section that are combined in an upward-downward direction; at least one fixture fixing the upper cabinet section to the lower cabinet section; and a cover attached to an exterior surface of the cabinet to cover the at least one fixture. The exterior surface of the cabinet has an exposed region adjacent to the cover and not covered by the cover. A step is formed between the exposed region of the exterior surface of the cabinet and an exterior surface of the cover, so that the exterior surface of the cover is recessed with respect to the exposed region of the exterior surface of the cabinet.
