  • Patent number: 9489120
    Abstract: This information processing device enables a user to easily move objects between applications simultaneously displayed on touch panels. The information processing device is provided with touch panels on which applications are simultaneously displayed. A touch panel coordinate management unit detects that an application object has existed for a prescribed time in a defined area of the touch panel when the object is being dragged. An application control unit and a display control unit move the display of the application to a position that allows the object to be dropped as a trigger for detecting the existence of the object in the defined area.

  • Patent number: 9342878
    Abstract: For inspection of a pattern such as a semiconductor device, it is useful to selectively detect a defect on the specific pattern in order to estimate the cause of the occurrence of the defect. An object of the invention is to provide a charged particle beam apparatus capable of setting, on the basis of the shape of the pattern on a sample, a region to be inspected. The invention is characterized in that the contour of the pattern on the sample is extracted using a template image obtained on the basis of an image of the sample, the region to be inspected is set on the basis of the contour of the pattern, a defect candidate is detected by comparing the image to be inspected with a comparative image, and the sample is inspected using a positional relationship between the region to be inspected and the defect candidate included in the region to be inspected.

  • Patent number: 8922561
    Abstract: The data processing device includes an acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of pieces of the same category of bio-information about the same person. The bio-information is measured with both a licensed first device and an unlicensed second device. A judgment unit judges whether each acquired piece of bio-information acquired in the previous acquisition was measured by the first device or the second device. A display processing unit displays with different display modes on the same screen, a first data group of a plurality of pieces of bio-information judged to have been measured with the first device and a second data group of a plurality of pieces of bio-information judged to have been measured with the second device. The data processing device identifies data when data from both licensed and unlicensed devices coexist.

  • Patent number: 8188428
    Abstract: A technique executes autofocus adjustment stably even when a plurality of patterns or foreign matter capable of being imaged only by a specific detector are included independently. Such an image as a concavo-convex image having a weak contrast can be picked up. The technique can automatically focus such an image even when it is difficult to find a focus position in the image. A scanning electron microscope includes a plurality of detectors for detecting secondary signals from a specimen when irradiated with an electron beam, and a calculation unit for combining the signals obtained from the detectors. At least two of the detectors are provided to be symmetric with respect to the electron beam. The focus of the electron beam is adjusted based on the signals of the detectors or on a signal corresponding to a combination of the signals.
