Abstract: A full-fat soybean flour-containing composition which is capable of improving flavor and texture of foods by using as a substitute for a part or the entirety of a basic ingredient of a food, or by additionally using as a novel basic ingredient, and a food prepared using the same are provided. In addition, an egg substitute composition which can be used in a food as an egg substitute and which contains a full-fat soybean flour as a principal component, and a food prepared using the same are provided. The full-fat soybean flour-containing composition of the present invention contains a full-fat soybean flour, a plant protein, an emulsifying agent, and a masking agent. Moreover, the egg substitute composition of the present invention contains a full-fat soybean flour, a plant protein, an emulsifying agent, and a masking agent, and can be used in a food as an egg substitute.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an image processing system including, an image pickup device, a server and a terminal apparatus, wherein said image pickup device including, a video data generating section and a metadata generating section wherein said server including, a video data storing section and a metadata storing section.

Abstract: An image monitoring system includes: recording means for recording an image captured by a camera via a network; control means for controlling the system so as to display the present image captured by the camera or a past image recorded on the recording means on display means; and moving-object detecting means for detecting a moving object from the image captured by the camera; wherein the moving-object detecting means includes resolution conversion means for generating an image with a resolution lower than the resolution of the image captured by the camera, positional-information output means for detecting a moving object from the image generated by the resolution conversion means and outputting positional information on the detected moving object, and information merging means for merging the positional information of the moving object with the image captured by the camera on the basis of the positional information of the moving object output by the positional-information output means.

Abstract: A valve train for an internal combustion engine is comprised of a lubricating oil, and a camshaft which is made of an iron-based material and comprises a cam lobe and a camshaft journal. The camshaft slidingly moves on a counterpart thereof through the lubricating oil. A hard carbon film is formed on at least one of a sliding portion of the camshaft and the counterpart made of an iron-based material. A hydrogen amount of the hard carbon film is 10 atomic percent or less.

Abstract: A content distributing system for distributing content disclosed herein is an encrypting apparatus for encrypting each of objects constituting content using a different encryption key, a content offering apparatus for offering the encrypted content to a content reproducing apparatus; a license information offering apparatus for offering license information including information necessary for decrypting the encrypted content, and a content reproducing apparatus for acquiring the encrypted content from the content offering apparatus in order to decrypt and reproduce the acquired content using the license information acquired from the license offering apparatus.

Abstract: A copyright-managed environment is provided in which encrypted content and a license for decrypting the content are handled separately. Each client registered in the environment uses content legitimately. After the content acquired by a client A of a user is stored into a client B of the same user, the client B may receive a new license for the same content from a license server. This allows the content to be shared between the clients A and B while the copyright of the content is protected. The inventive environment allows the user having acquired a license to use the corresponding content on a plurality of apparatuses in his or her possession while illegal content uses are forestalled.

Abstract: An environment in which copyright management is exercised is supplied so that encrypted contents and the license for decrypting the encrypted contents can be handled independently. Further, each client legally uses the contents. When contents acquired by client A are to be moved to client B, the information about client B is attached to the contents so that client B can be identified. In this manner, the contents can be shared between clients A and B, while the contents are protected. A licensed user can use contents from a plurality of devices, while preventing an illegal use of the contents.

Abstract: A cassette tape is constructed so that a radius of one reel side in a condition where to a middle point of a magnetic tape wound on a reel with a same radius k is a radius of a large-diameter reel, and the radius k is a radius of a small-diameter reel. With the cassette tape of the above construction, information corresponding to each other recorded on one track and the other track parallel to each other of a magnetic recording medium can be easily dubbed without deteriorating the interrelationship of information between both tracks.

Abstract: A mutually and repeatedly reproducible information recording medium, and method for preparing the same, prepared by forming first blocks, adjacent to each other and spaced by space sections, comprising first information on one track of the information recording medium, and forming second blocks comprising second information arranged in the reverse flow direction of information on the other track, so that parts of the other tracks corresponding to the start points of the individual first or second blocks on the one track are always space sections, in which one block of the first or second information is reproduced and, after the reproduction of the block is complete, the information recording medium is run in the reverse direction to reproduce the other track, thereby reproducing the second or first information corresponding to the previously reproduced information.
