Abstract: An anti-reflection sheet includes a transparent substrate; and a resin layer formed on a surface of a transparent substrate. The resin layer includes a first surface that faces the surface of the transparent substrate; a second surface that faces away from the surface of the transparent substrate; and a plurality of projections arranged on the second surface of the resin layer so as to form a projection layer. Each of the plurality of projections has a cross section that includes an entire center axis perpendicular to the surface of the transparent substrate. Each of the plurality of projections has a cross section that is in a shape of quadratic function. An arranged pitch of each of the plurality of projections is not more than half of a wavelength of incident light. An aspect ratio of each of the plurality of projections is 1 or less. A difference between a refractive index n1 of the transparent substrate and a refractive index n2 of the resin layer satisfies the following expression: |n1?n2|?0.05.

Abstract: An aspect of the present invention provides a compact light guide device and a light guide apparatus having high productivity and an even light emission property. A light guide device is made of a translucent material, and LED is disposed in a notch step portion formed by cutting at least a part of an inner peripheral surface, thereby guiding light from LED to emit the light to the outside. Particularly, in a surface and a backside of a sidewall portion of the notch step portion, the sidewall portion facing a light-emitting portion of the light-emitting element, at least an inward surface constitutes a reflecting surface diffusing the light, and a pair of facing surface adjacent to each other on both sides of the sidewall portion constitutes a light acceptance surface receiving the light reflected from the reflecting surface.

Abstract: An anti-reflection sheet is formed in a manner of forming a resin layer, which has many fine projections 12, on a flat and smooth surface of a transparent substrate 11. Transparent resin is molded into the projections 12, the projections 12 have an almost quadratic function-shaped cross section including a center axis C perpendicular to the surface of the substrate 11, and a surface of the projection 12 is preferably a rotational paraboloid. A ratio (aspect ratio) b/a of a height b and width a of the projection 12 is 1 or less. Additionally, an arranged pitch P of the projections 12 is not more than half of a wavelength of incident light.

Abstract: Provided according to the invention is a recording control apparatus capable of more accurately recording an image of a person carrying an article to which an RFID tag is attached. When a reader/writer receives position information on an RFID tag attached to an article, this information is stored in an article information storing section. When a position determining unit detects an article located out of a designated area, a monitoring camera control section starts controlling recording. The monitoring camera control section estimates the movement direction of the article based on the time-sequential record of the position information on the article, specifies any of monitoring cameras to be operated based on the movement direction and the current position of the article, and controls the recording operation of the specified monitoring camera.
