  • Patent number: 11959775
    Abstract: Provided is an information processing device and an information processing method that enable simple and appropriate calibration. When a pen-type device incorporating an inertial measurement unit such as an IMU is moved and a drawn image corresponding to a track is displayed, calibration is implemented on the basis of a measurement value of the inertial measurement device in one stationary attitude and a latitude and an absolute azimuth of the inertial measurement device at that time when the pen-type device is inserted into a pen stand to be fixed in a predetermined direction.

  • Patent number: 11935784
    Abstract: A vertical layer stack including a bit-line-level dielectric layer and an etch stop dielectric layer can be formed over an array region. Bit-line trenches are formed through the vertical layer stack. Bit-line-trench fill structures are formed in the bit-line trenches. Each of the bit-line-trench fill structures includes a stack of a bit line and a capping dielectric strip. At least one via-level dielectric layer can be formed over the vertical layer stack. A bit-line-contact via cavity can be formed through the at least one via-level dielectric layer and one of the capping dielectric strips. A bit-line-contact via structure formed in the bit-line-contact via cavity includes a stepped bottom surface including a top surface of one of the bit lines, a sidewall segment of the etch stop dielectric layer, and a segment of a top surface of the etch stop dielectric layer.

  • Patent number: 10392004
    Abstract: An engine (2) of a hybrid vehicle (1) is configured to operate along a prescribed operation line in an operation property diagram of the engine. In addition to a first operation line (A) that optimizes fuel economy, a second operation line (B) that minimizes undesired emission of particulate matter is defined. The two operation lines substantially coincide with each other in a certain region of the diagram. A control unit (7) of the vehicle switches the operating condition between the first operation line and the second operation line when the first operation line and the second operation line substantially coincide with each other.

  • Publication number: 20170074198
    Abstract: An abnormality determination device which is capable of shortening a time period required for performing abnormality determination of a plurality of devices, in a state in which the supply of evaporated fuel to an intake system is stopped, as a whole, thereby making it possible to increase the frequency of execution of the determination, and improve the throughput of an evaporated fuel processor for processing evaporated fuel. When first and second execution conditions are satisfied, respectively, first and second determination operations for determining the abnormalities of first and second devices, respectively, are performed in the state in which the supply of evaporated fuel is stopped. In a case where the first determination operation is completed, when the second execution condition has been satisfied, the second determination operation is started with the supply of evaporated fuel being held in the stopped state.
