Abstract: Photoelectric conversion apparatus includes read circuit for reading signals of pixel array, and signal processing unit for generating pixel signal by performing CDS on signals read by the read circuit and performing shading correction on the pixel signal. The read circuit has function of reading signal of the pixel array with first and second gain. The read circuit reads noise level with the first gain and reads optical signal level with the first or second gain from selected effective pixel for the correlated double sampling. In the shading correction, pixel signal of effective pixel from which optical signal level has been read with the first gain is corrected based on first correction value, and pixel signal of effective pixel from which optical signal level has been read with the second gain is corrected based on second correction value.

Abstract: Provided is an imaging device capable of reliably achieving both widening an angle of view and an improvement in productivity. An imaging device 100 includes a pair of camera modules 2 each including an imaging element 4 and a lens unit 3, in which optical axes OA of the lens units 3 are arranged in parallel to each other. Each of the pair of camera modules 2 has a configuration in which the imaging element 4 and the lens unit 3 are relatively arranged such that a center C of the imaging element 4 is separated from the optical axis CA by the same distance in the same direction. With respect to the posture of one camera module 2, the other camera modules 2 is arranged in an inverted posture in which the other camera modules 2 has rotated around a rotation axis RA along the optical axis OA.

Abstract: The present invention provides a stereo camera device with which it is possible to prevent the deformation of a housing caused by a warp or strain imposed on a cover and a difference in the rate of increase of the temperature of the housing and the cover, as well as to reduce the size of the housing and to cut down component counts and assembly man-hours. In the present invention, fixing of a substrate and a housing together and fixing of a cover and the housing together are performed in common, and the substrate and the cover are fixed to the housing at the same (common) fixing point, whereby a warp or strain imposed on the cover and a difference in the rate of increase of the temperature of the housing and the cover are absorbed by an elastic body that is used for floating/fixing and is provided for the purpose of cancelling a difference in the amount of contraction and expansion caused by a difference in the coefficient of linear expansion of the substrate and the housing.

Abstract: A receiving unit of a length measurement control apparatus receives fitting information that indicates a fitting state between parts of a product that was assembled from a group of parts including members machined using a tool. A determination unit of the length measurement control apparatus determines whether to measure a length dimension of the tool in order to correct the machining position in accordance with a change in the length dimension of the tool, on the basis of whether the fitting state indicated in the fitting information received by the receiving unit is outside a threshold range.

Abstract: Electric power conversion device has first and second operation modes. First operation mode is of converting DC power from a first terminal into DC power having a desired voltage to be output to second terminal. Second operation mode is of converting DC power from the second terminal into DC power having a desired voltage to be output to first terminal. Switching section is configured to, in first operation mode, be turned on to cause short-circuiting between both ends of capacitor of rectifying circuit, and, in second operation mode, be turned off. First conversion part is configured to, in first operation mode, supply DC power-from first terminal, from first winding to second conversion part through a conversion circuit, and, in second operation mode, output to first terminal a voltage obtained by adding an output voltage of rectifying circuit to an output voltage of conversion circuit.

Abstract: It is determined whether or not a previously received wafer process condition can be changed to a newly received wafer process condition based on a wafer operation progress indicating which wafer is treated or untreated among a given number of wafers in a previously received lot process condition table when a new lot process condition table containing wafer process conditions corresponding to wafer identification information and having the wafer identification information all equal to wafer identification information in the previously received lot process condition table. When any wafer process condition is changeable, the wafer process condition is changed to the newly received wafer process condition. In this way, a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus can have increased yields in accordance with wafers.
