  • Patent number: 11957475
    Abstract: A biometric information processing device (1) includes a brain wave detecting unit (10), a control unit (20), and a movement assisting unit (30). The brain wave detecting unit (10) detects biometric information in at least one brain region from among a plurality of brain regions that are selectable in accordance with a body part that is a target of function recovery or function improvement. The control unit (20) determines, based on the detected biometric information, at least one activity state in the brain including the location of the brain region(s) that is (are) activated in a subject while attempting to move the body part, and an activation level of such activated brain region(s). When the control unit (20) determines that the at least one activated state of the brain satisfies a predetermined condition, the movement assisting unit (30) executes a predetermined motion to assist movement of the body part.

  • Patent number: 4682845
    Abstract: In an apparatus for transmitting an optical image using an image guide which is equipped with dispersive devices, the invention has an advantage such that dispersive devices which are arranged in an objective lens system and an ocular lens system are attached by being rotated by only a constant angle in the same direction around their respective optical axes as rotational centers with respect to each of an edge surface and rear edge surface of the image guide.

  • Patent number: 4668976
    Abstract: Disclosed is a television camera having good color reproducibility which is secured to be maintained for a long time even in an atmosphere of high radiation, and in which the degree of deterioration in each color component signal due to radiation exposure is detected and the amplification degree of each color component signal is corrected in accordance with the detected degree of deterioration so as to make the color reproducibility come back to the state before radiation exposure.

  • Patent number: 4589014
    Abstract: A color industrial television camera device for use in a gamma ray environment including a lens system made of radiation resisting glass. The lens system has a spectral transmittance characteristic such that the wavelength for which the lens system has a transmittance equal to one-half of its maximum transmittance in a wavelength range from 0.4 to 0.7 .mu.m is shorter than about 0.48 .mu.m on the shorter wavelength side of the maximum transmittance wavelength in the above wavelength range, thereby enabling the achieving white balance for a color display with the aid of an electric circuit.
