  • Patent number: 10878772
    Abstract: Provided is a technique for preventing excessive determination that control in a display control apparatus is abnormal. A control test apparatus includes an acquisition unit and a controller. The controller determines, whenever necessary, on the basis of a second image that is output from the display control apparatus and first test data that is acquired in the acquisition unit, whether the control in the display control apparatus over the display apparatus is abnormal. The controller stops the determination until a predetermined time elapses from a first time point, the predetermined time being equal to or greater than a time from the first time point at which the first test data is input to the controller to a second time point at which the second image is input to the controller.

  • Publication number: 20200391471
    Abstract: A first sheet panel is folded along a first fold line, and thereby a first folded part is formed in the first sheet panel. Subsequently, the first folded part is folded back along a second fold line, and thereby a folded-back part is formed in the first sheet panel. A corner cut device cuts a second sheet panel and the folded-back part to form corner cut parts. At this time, the corner cut device prevents the first folded part and a base part of the first sheet panel from being cut.
