Abstract: A wearable display control device may perform extracting, storing, obtaining, determining and controlling. The extracting may extract a characteristic quantity indicating a characteristic of a particular part. The storing may store a first characteristic quantity in a memory. The obtaining may obtain gesture data of the particular part from second captured data captured after the first characteristic quantity is stored in the memory. The gesture data may indicate a gesture of the particular part. The determining may determine whether the first characteristic quantity corresponds to a second characteristic quantity extracted from the second captured data. The controlling may control a specific process that controls a display device in response to determining that the first characteristic quantity corresponds to the second characteristic quantity and may not control the specific process in response to determining that the first characteristic quantity does not correspond to the second characteristic quantity.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for surface-finishing of a single crystal wafer of a ferroelectric material into a substrate plate suitable for use, for example, as a SAW filter element which is mirror-polished only on one of the surfaces, the other surface having an adequate roughness. Different from conventional methods, the inventive method comprises the successive steps of (a) slicing a single crystal boule into wafers, (b) lapping of the wafer on both surfaces to impart adequate roughness to the surfaces, (c) chemically etching the thus lapped surfaces to remove the strain produced in the preceding mechanical working, and (d) mirror-polishing one of the thus etched surfaces so that high uniformity of the thickness and greatly decreased warping of the wafer can be ensured.
