  • Patent number: 10986242
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes plural detectors and a transition unit. The plural detectors detect a person and have different detection areas. The transition unit makes a transition from a power saving state to a normal state if a return condition that the person is detected by a predetermined detector among the plural detectors is satisfied, the power saving state being a state in which power lower than usual power is supplied, the normal state being a state in which the usual power is supplied. The transition unit sets, as the return condition, a condition that an intention of using the information processing apparatus by the person is detected and a detector, among the plural detectors, having a detection area wider than a detection area of the predetermined detector detects the person.

  • Patent number: 10828480
    Abstract: An applicator according to one embodiment includes a housing having a tubular shape with one closed end, and configured to house an elastic member and a piston plate for transmitting biasing force of the elastic member to the microneedles, and release means configured to release the piston plate engaged in a manner resisting against the biasing force of the elastic member in the housing, to cause the piston plate to move toward an opening of the housing along an axial direction of the housing. The release means is configured, when the release means releases the engagement of the piston plate by moving toward the housing in the axial direction, to transmit force in a direction toward the opening to the housing.
