Abstract: An information processing method, an information processing system, an information processing device, and an information terminal of the present invention, accepts a destination for the vehicle, then searches for the travel route to the destination and sets as a first travel route, and sets a travel start time to start traveling on the first travel route. Then, vehicle information is acquired for the vehicle in advance of the travel start time by a prescribed time after the setting of the first travel route; and a travel route to the destination is searched again and a second travel route is set based on the vehicle information.

Abstract: Provided is an ultrasound imaging apparatus capable of reducing examination time with optimizing parameters on an examination basis. A subject is irradiated with an ultrasound wave, and a plurality of ultrasound transducers receives the ultrasound wave from the subject to obtain received signals. A feature value is calculated from the received signals, the feature value indicating a frequency-dependent characteristic of attenuation of the ultrasound wave, associated with propagation of the ultrasound wave through the subject. A predetermined processing is performed on the received signals using one or more received-signal processing parameters to generate an image. An image processing is performed on the generated image using one or more image processing parameters. Values of the received-signal processing parameter and the image processing parameter are determined based on the feature value.

Abstract: An example game controller includes a spherical housing, a vibrator, an inertia sensor, an operation device, and a transmitter. The vibrator is inside the spherical housing and configured to generate a vibration to vibrate the spherical housing. The inertia sensor is at a position inside the spherical housing such that a distance from a center of the spherical housing to the inertial sensor is shorter than a distance from the center of the spherical housing to the vibrator. The operation section has an operation surface. The operation surface is capable of being depressed and is at the spherical housing on an opposite side from the vibrator with respect to the center of the spherical housing. The transmitter configured to transmit, to outside, information regarding an operation on the operation section and information output from the inertia sensor.

Abstract: Based on first data transmitted from a game controller, a game apparatus executes game processing for catching a predetermined game character and transmits, to the game controller, second data corresponding to the game character as a target to be caught. Based on the transmitted second data, the game controller outputs a sound corresponding to the caught game character.

Abstract: An example game controller includes a housing, an operation section, a light-emitter, and a lightguide. The housing has an opening. At least a portion of the operation section is exposed through the opening. The light-emitter is inside the housing and configured to emit light. The lightguide includes a light-receiving surface configured to receive light generated from the light-emitter and a light-exiting surface configured to output light received via the light-receiving surface to outside the housing. The lightguide includes a surrounding portion and an extended portion. The surrounding portion has the light-exiting surface and surrounds a circumference of the operation section. The extended portion is extended from the surrounding portion and has the light-receiving surface at a tip portion thereof.

Abstract: An example game controller includes a spherical housing, a joystick, an operation section, and a transmitter. The joystick protrudes from a surface of the spherical housing. The operation section includes an operation surface. The operation surface is capable of being depressed and is integral with the surface of the spherical housing. The transmitter transmits, to outside, information regarding an operation on the joystick and information regarding an operation on the operation section. Thus, it is possible to provide a game controller that allows for various types of operations.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of a stent is disclosed which prevents a drug from being peeled off or separated due to stress concentration or distortion resulting from the expanding deformation of the stent so that the drug is further uniformly effective and further improved yields are expected when the stent is manufactured, and a coating device. The method has a non-coating portion forming process of preventing a bending portion from being coated with the drug by causing a nozzle to go past the bending portion when the nozzle reaches the bending portion and to move toward main strut portions. In the non-coating portion forming process, an adhesion amount of a coating solution is reduced while the nozzle is going past the bending portion.
