  • Patent number: 11900574
    Abstract: The image processing system includes a scanner, a pixelated photon detector (PPD), and at least one processor. The at least one processor displays a setting screen on a display unit. The setting screen is a screen for setting an identification range that is a range of gradation to be identified. The at least one processor displays a second image obtained by converting a first image on the display unit. The second image is an image obtained by converting the first image based on at least the identification range. The first image is generated based on an intensity signal of light detected by a PPD and a scanning position by the scanner.

  • Patent number: 11105080
    Abstract: A toilet space deodorizing device includes an intake part forming an intake port; an exhaust part forming an exhaust port; a fan device intaking air through the intake port; a water deodorizing part provided inside a deodorizing air channel, the deodorizing air channel linking the intake port and the exhaust port and allowing air to flow, the water deodorizing part using water to deodorize the suctioned air; a water supply part supplying water to the water deodorizing part; and a drainage part forming a drainage port, the drainage port draining water from the water deodorizing part into a drainage receptacle. The drainage port is positioned between the water deodorizing part and the water supply part. The water supply part supplies the water to the water deodorizing part via the drainage port.

  • Patent number: 11047121
    Abstract: A toilet space deodorizing device includes an intake port part forming an intake port, an exhaust port part forming an exhaust port, a fan device, a water collecting part provided inside a deodorizing air channel, a water supply part supplying water to the water collecting part, a drainage part forming a drainage port, a negative pressure generation device forming a negative pressure in the water collecting part, and a controller controlling a driving of the negative pressure generation device. The controller dries the negative pressure generation device to generate a negative pressure. The water supplied from the water supply part is collected in the water collecting part due to air flowing into the water collecting part and pushing on the water supplied from the water supply part by the negative pressure.

  • Patent number: 10606057
    Abstract: A microscope system includes a microscope apparatus and a controller. The microscope apparatus includes an objective and a correction device that corrects a spherical aberration. The controller, during an interval period of a time-lapse observation, detects a reference target position of an observation target and updates correction information on the basis of at least variation information, the correction information representing a relationship between a position of the objective and a setting of the correction device and the variation information representing a variation amount of a distance from the objective to the reference target position. The controller, during an observation period of the time-lapse observation, controls the correction device in accordance with the correction information for each position of the objective determined on the basis of at least the variation information.
