Abstract: A wire bonding apparatus connecting a lead of a mounted member with an electrode of a semiconductor die through a wire comprises a capillary through which the wire is inserted, a shape acquisition part which acquires the shape of the lead to which the wire is connected, a calculating part which calculates an extending direction of a wire tail extending from the end of the capillary based on the shape of a lead to which the wire is connected next, and a cutting part which moves the capillary in the extending direction and cuts the wire to form the wire tail after the lead is connected with the electrode through the wire. Thus, in the wire bonding using wedge bonding, joining part tails (183a, 283a, 383a) formed in continuation to a first bonding point can be prevented from coming into contact with each other.

Abstract: A server includes a communication interface, a memory, and a processor. The communication interface communicates with a first terminal device that transmits voice data generated from an input voice and a second terminal device that outputs a voice based on the voice data received from the first terminal device. The memory stores voice recognition results by the first and second terminal devices for the input voice input to the first terminal device and the second terminal device respectively. The processor determines a difference between the input voice input to the first terminal device and the voice output based on the voice data of the input voice received by the second terminal device from the first terminal device based on a comparison between the voice recognition result by the first terminal device and the voice recognition result by the second terminal device.
