Abstract: A detection device includes a plurality of optical sensors arranged in a detection area, a light source configured to emit light that is emitted to an object to be detected and is detected by the optical sensors, and a processor configured to perform processing based on outputs from the optical sensors. The processor is configured to determine, based on the outputs of the respective optical sensors obtained at a cycle of a predetermined period, an optical sensor an output of which is to be employed from among the optical sensors.

Abstract: Provided is a robot system including a robot including at least one sensor that detects an applied external force and a controller that controls the robot. The controller changes an operation mode of the robot when performing lead-through teaching in accordance with a position and a pattern of the external force detected by the sensor.

Abstract: A robot controller for controlling a robot includes a reception unit configured to receive, by wireless communication, transmission data containing an operation command for the robot, a delay detection unit configured. to detect a delay of the received transmission data from a scheduled arrival time, and a speed setting unit configured to set, when the delay is detected, a movement speed when the robot moves in accordance with the operation command to a 2nd speed which is less than a 1st speed set when the delay is not detected and which is greater than zero.

Abstract: Provided is a robot system including a robot including at least one sensor that detects an applied external force and a controller that controls the robot. The controller changes an operation mode of the robot when performing lead-through teaching in accordance with a position and a pattern of the external force detected by the sensor.

Abstract: A glass cloth obtained by weaving a glass yarn including a plurality of glass filaments, wherein the compositional amount of B2O3 is 20% by mass to 30% by mass in the glass filaments and the compositional amount of SiO2 is 50% by mass to 60% by mass in the glass filaments, and the loss on ignition of the glass cloth is 0.25% by mass to 1.0% by mass.

Abstract: A cosmetic applicator includes a handle part and a brush part made of bristle materials planted in the handle part and is used to apply a powdery cosmetic containing a fine powder, wherein such cosmetic applicator is characterized in that the bristle materials are planted in the ring-shaped part formed between the interior surface of the handle part and the exterior surface of the core provided in the handle part, and the bristle materials of the brush part extend upward from the handle part and their tips form an outer periphery having a horizontal shape relative to the handle part, while forming a shape gradually concaving from the outer periphery toward the center axis of the brush part.

Abstract: A double glass cloth for a printed wiring board, characterized in that it is a glass cloth composed of warps and wefts and has a double structure comprising a face side structure and a back side structure, wherein said face side structure and said back side structure are bound with a woven structure into one piece.

Abstract: A robot system capable of performing automatic updating of data inherent to a robot mechanism section or a mechanical unit thereof when changing the robot mechanism section or the mechanical unit. After changing the robot mechanism section or the mechanical unit, data of identifiers are read by a robot control section from nonvolatile memories associated with encoders in the robot mechanism section or the mechanical unit automatically upon turning-on of a power supply on or a manual operation. If it is determined that a kind of the robot is changed, the data indicating the kind of robot is rewritten in the robot control section. If it is required to change an algorithm for forward/inverse transformation for calculation of a robot locus, the algorithm is changed. If a kind of the robot is not changed, it is determined whether individuality of the whole robot mechanism section or the mechanical unit is changed or not.
