Abstract: A fluid state detection apparatus which can detect a short failure in which a constituent Wheatstone bridge circuit is shorted to a power supplyA combustible gas detection apparatus (1) judges that a short failure has occurred in a constant temperature control circuit (231) (S240) when a top potential V21 is equal to or greater than a first judgment value Vth1 and a difference D1 (=V11?V31) is equal to or greater than a second judgment value Vth2. As a result, apparatus (1) can distinguish “a state in which a bridge circuit (210) is shorted to a DC power supply (40) (where the constant temperature control circuit 231 is in a short failure state)” from “a state in which the resistance of the heat generation resistor (15) deceases due to a combustible gas (hydrogen)” based on the top potential V21 and the difference D1.

Abstract: An image display device capable of providing satisfactory user's visibility of an image including object images when the image and display bodies specifying particular regions of the object images are screen displayed. In a case where a horizontal direction distance between face detection frames for object images adjacent on a screen is equal to or less than a first threshold value and a vertical direction distance between face detection frames exceeds a second threshold value, a system controller of the image display device determines which one of the face detection frames is located on an upper side of the screen. A human body detection frame for the object image corresponding to the face detection frame determined as being located on an upper side on the screen is made non-display.

Abstract: A combustible gas detection device includes an energization control circuit which controls the switching of the energization state of a heat generation resistor every predetermined time period such that the heat generation resistor alternately has resistances corresponding to two predetermined temperatures, a temperature measurement resistor disposed on the same substrate on which the heat generation resistor is disposed, where its resistance changes with the environmental temperature, a gas concentration computation section which calculates the combustible gas concentration by using a voltage generated across the heat generation resistor which is detected when electricity is supplied to the heat generation resistor and the environmental temperature based on a voltage change caused by a change in the resistance of the temperature measurement resistor.

Abstract: A first bridge fixed resistor (211) of a combustible gas detection apparatus (1) is composed of a resistor element which is less likely to deteriorate as compared with a second bridge fixed resistor (212) and a variable resistor section (213). The combustible gas detection apparatus (1) can judge a deteriorated state of at least one of the second bridge fixed resistor (212) and the variable resistor section (213) on the basis of the absolute value of a difference temperature ?T which is the difference between a detection-time judgment temperature T1 and a reference judgment temperature T0. The combustible gas detection apparatus (1) obtains a corrected high-temperature-time voltage VH? and a corrected low-temperature-time voltage VL? through use of a voltage error ?V1. Thus, a decrease in the accuracy in detecting the hydrogen concentration can be suppressed even when the resistance of the resistor section changes.

Abstract: A gas detector includes a gas detection element having a protection layer formed of an oxide film mainly containing tantalum oxide (Ta2O5). Since the protection layer has excellent condensed-water resistance, even when water droplets adhere thereto, the morphology thereof does not change from dense to porous. Thus, since a change in property of the protection layer, which would otherwise be caused by adhesion of water droplets, can be reduced in the gas detector, even when water droplets adhere to the outermost surface layer of the gas detection element, impurities can be prevented from entering the protection layer (the outermost surface layer), whereby a change in thermal capacity of the gas detection element can be reduced. Thus, the gas detection element of the gas detector has excellent alkali resistance and condensed-water resistance.
