  • Patent number: 11026570
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first acquisition portion acquiring a front image of an eye fundus, a second acquisition portion acquiring an En-Face image on the basis of a plurality of tomographic images of the eye fundus, and a display control portion controlling a display unit to display the En-Face image in a superimposed relation to the front image. The display control portion changes a depth range, at the eye fundus, of the En-Face image superimposed on the front image.

  • Patent number: 10510202
    Abstract: A coin identification device includes: a first magnetic sensor detecting an amount of magnetic variation while the coin passes in the carrying direction; a second magnetic sensor installed where the second magnetic sensor detects a passage of an arc of a small-diameter coin when the first magnetic sensor detects a passage of the small-diameter coin; and a third magnetic sensor installed where the third magnetic sensor does not detect a passage of an arc of the small-diameter coin when the first magnetic sensor and the second magnetic sensor detect a passage of the small-diameter coin and detects a passage of an arc of a large-diameter coin; and an identification control unit identifying an outer diameter of the small-diameter coin and the large-diameter coin based on the amount of magnetic variation of the first magnetic sensor.

  • Publication number: 20090122398
    Abstract: A surgical microscope apparatus 1 comprises an illumination optical system 20, an observation optical system 30, and a controller 60. The illumination optical system 20 has an illumination light source configured to emit an illumination light, and an emission diaphragm and illumination diaphragm 24 both configured to change the angle of the illumination light (illumination angle) with respect to the optical axis of the observation optical system 30. When the illumination angle is changed, the controller 60 determines the intensity of the illumination light based on the illumination angle after the change and illumination-intensity information 62a. Further, the controller 60 controls the illumination light source 21 so as to output an illumination light with the determined intensity. According to the surgical microscope apparatus 1, when the angle of an illumination light that illuminates an eye is changed, an observation image with favorable brightness can be easily obtained.

  • Patent number: 5494621
    Abstract: A cartridge including a cartridge case having a disc-shaped recording medium received therein so as to allow predetermined information signals to be recorded and reproduced, and a shutter and method for producing the shutter which is molded of a synthetic resin to slidably open and close an opening portion formed on the cartridge case so as to allow at least a part of the disc-shaped recording medium to be exposed to the outside. The shutter includes an upper main plate, a lower main plate and a coupling plate which connects the upper main plate to the lower main plate via the coupling plate in an integrally molded state while having a U-shaped cross-sectional contour to hold the cartridge case in a clamped state. A gate used for performing a molding operation is formed on the outer surface of the side plate, with the position of the gate being determined such that it always remains within an effective opening region corresponding to the opening portion.

  • Patent number: 4606511
    Abstract: Double injection molding is used to form a tape reel of two different resins. One of the resins, which is harder-wearing and more expensive than the other, is used to form a projecting portion which, being subjected to constant pressure by a spring, is required to have good wear-resistance. The other resin is a cheaper, general-purpose type, and is used to form the other parts of the reel. By making it possible to use double injection molding to form the different parts of the reel simultaneously, the reel has few parts and assembly entails few operations, and will enable the material costs of the reel to be reduced.
