Abstract: A small-sized gas detection apparatus with high measurement accuracy is provided. The gas detection apparatus includes a light emitting portion (1); a light receiving portion (2); a first mirror (3) that has a quadric reflective surface and reflects light emitted from the light emitting portion; and a second mirror (4) that has a quadric reflective surface and reflects the light reflected by the first mirror to the first mirror. The quadric surfaces of the first mirror and the second mirror have convex portions facing in a same direction. The first mirror reflects the light reflected by the second mirror to the light receiving portion. When one surface of a substrate on which the light emitting portion and the light receiving portion are mounted is used as a reference plane, the first mirror and the second mirror are provided at positions higher than the reference plane and have different heights.

The authentication server includes an authentication unit configured to authenticate the space based on the statistical information.

Abstract: A gas detection apparatus 1 includes a substrate 2; a light emitting element 3 provided on a main surface of the substrate for emitting light; a light receiving element 4 provided on the main surface of the substrate 2 for receiving the light; a light guide member 5 for guiding the light emitted by the light emitting element 3 to the light receiving element; a first joint member 6; and a second joint member 7. The first joint member joins the substrate and the light guide member, limits a displacement in a direction parallel and/or orthogonal to the main surface of the substrate. The second joint member joins the substrate and the light guide member, limits a displacement of the light guide member in a direction parallel to the main surface of the substrate and/or limits a displacement within a plane orthogonal to the main surface of the substrate.

Abstract: Provided is a gas detection apparatus which suppresses occurrences of distortions of the optical path to reduce fluctuations of the gas detection sensitivity. A gas detection apparatus 1 includes a substrate 2; a light emitting element 3 disposed in a first region 21 in a main surface 20 of the substrate 2 for emitting light; a light receiving element 4 disposed in a second region 22 in the main surface 20 of the substrate 2 for receiving the light; a light guide member 5 for guiding the light emitted by the light emitting element 3 to the light receiving element 4; and a joint member 6 joining the substrate 2 and the light guide member 5. The joint member 6 serves as a rotation axis when the light guide member 5 is displaced relative to the substrate 2.
