  • Publication number: 20240128705
    Abstract: A gas laser amplifier includes a housing, discharge electrode pairs, and an optical resonator. The housing includes an entrance window that allows entry of a first laser beam from outside and an exit window that allows exit of the first laser beam amplified. Each of the discharge electrode pairs excites a laser gas supplied between discharge electrodes facing each other in the housing. The optical resonator causes a second laser beam to oscillate with a gain of the excited laser gas in a non-incident state where the first laser beam from outside the housing does not enter the housing through the entrance window. In an incident state where the first laser beam enters the housing through the entrance window, the optical resonator suspends the oscillation of the second laser beam.

  • Publication number: 20240012542
    Abstract: An acquisition unit acquires a use frequency of a user of a UI extension component of a GUI component constituting a predetermined application and a use frequency of the user of a cooperation component which is a target GUI component for an operation of the UI extension component. A determination unit determines whether to display the UI extension component to the user based on the use frequency of the UI extension component of the user and a utilization frequency of the UI extension component calculated by using the use frequency of the cooperation component.

  • Publication number: 20240004508
    Abstract: A storage unit stores display information related to display of UI extension components of GUI components constituting a predetermined application for each user type including an implementer and a supervisor, and an operation rule that specifies an operation according to the user type when there is an input for a predetermined UI extension component. A display control unit displays, to the supervisor, a UI extension component that accepts an input as to whether or not to grant approval while referring to the display information and the operation rule when detecting an input for the predetermined UI extension component displayed to the implementer. An input execution unit executes, to a target GUI component, the input for the UI extension component made by the implementer while referring to the operation rule when detecting an input of approval for the UI extension component displayed to the supervisor.

  • Patent number: 11861417
    Abstract: A peripheral information acquisition unit (121) acquires information relating to a first application (13a) running in a terminal, information relating to control of the terminal, or information that can be acquired from a sensor included in the terminal, as peripheral information. The peripheral information acquired by the peripheral information acquisition unit (121) is accumulated in a peripheral information accumulation unit (122). A dialogue interface unit (11) accepts input of information from a user and outputs information to the user. When the peripheral information accumulated in the peripheral information accumulation unit (122) and information input to the dialogue interface unit (11) satisfy a predetermined condition, a scenario control unit (123) causes the dialogue interface unit (11) to output information relating to execution of a second application (14) that is associated with the condition in advance.

  • Publication number: 20230421724
    Abstract: A data processing device (100) creates space information imitating an office environment having a plurality of rooms. The data processing device (100) displays the space information in which a plurality of icons corresponding to a plurality of users is arranged in a plurality of rooms on the basis of instruction information from each of terminal devices used by the plurality of users. For a room in which a plurality of icons is displayed in the space information, the data processing device establishes a call by connecting a plurality of terminal devices corresponding to the plurality of icons displayed in the room.

  • Publication number: 20230260508
    Abstract: A task determination unit determines a type of processing being operated, on the basis of an operation situation of an existing system. A conversion unit converts voice data input during a predetermined operation of an HID into text data, and determines whether the text data is used for a command determination or a setting parameter according to operation content of the HID. A command determination unit determines a command by using the text data and the type of processing being operated, when it is determined that the text data is used for the command determination. An operation unit executes an operation corresponding to the determined command with respect to the existing system by using the text data as a parameter, when it is determined that the text data is used for the setting parameter.

  • Publication number: 20230222420
    Abstract: An acquisition unit (15a) acquires operation information of a user on the screen that the user operates. An identification unit (15b) identifies a progress state in a predetermined work flow, using the acquired operation information. A display control unit (15c) causes the work flow and the identified progress state to be displayed.

  • Publication number: 20230024249
    Abstract: A storage unit (21) stores, for each extended user interface, a work determination method (21a) that is a method for determining a work that is carried out by a user, and work data (21b) that has been input to the extended user interface in correspondence with the work. A work determination unit (12b) acquires the work determination method (21a) for an extended user interface that is displayed, from the storage unit (21), and determines the work that is carried out by the user on a terminal (10) that is operated by the user, according to the work determination method (21a). A work data processing unit (12c) acquires the work data (21b) corresponding to the determined work, from the storage unit (21), and displays it on the extended user interface.
