Abstract: Disclosed herein is a sensor processing system including an acquisition unit, a time series analysis unit, and a decision unit. The acquisition unit acquires measurement data from a measuring unit. The measuring unit measures a physical quantity, of which a value varies depending on whether a human is present in, or absent from, an object space. The time series analysis unit obtains an analysis model for a time series analysis in which the measurement data acquired at a predetermined timing is represented by multiple items, acquired before the predetermined timing, of the measurement data. The decision unit decides, depending on a decision condition including a condition concerning a coefficient of the analysis model, whether the human is present or absent at the predetermined timing.

Abstract: An information processing device obtains measurement data for calculating biological information of a measurement subject from a sensor that performs measurement without contact. Based on content of the measurement data, the measurement data is classified into a group associated with at least a position of the measurement subject, the biological information is calculated from the classified measurement data, and the calculated biological information is compared with a reference value associated with a group to which the measurement data belongs. Then, a notification is made based on the comparing.

Abstract: At a time of carrying out a laser cutting processing in a direction intersecting with a processing line at which the laser cutting processing for a work has been carried out, a laser cutting speed is decelerated before a laser beam reaches the processing line at an initial laser cutting speed, and the laser cutting speed is accelerated when an axial center of the laser beam is positioned within a prescribed range in vicinity of a central position of the processing line, and the laser cutting speed is returned to the initial laser cutting speed, in vicinity of a position at which the axial center of the laser beam crosses the processing line. Also, when the axial center of the laser beam and the central position of the processing line almost coincide, the laser output is made to be almost zero.
