  • Publication number: 20240106966
    Abstract: There is a possibility that the accuracy of color adjustment decreases due to high-frequency density unevenness on a test chart that is used in a case where sensor reading characteristics are obtained. The present disclosure solves this by correction processing (generating a correction table for sensor shading correction processing) of a reading sensor configuring a scan unit after removing high-frequency density unevenness in advance by performing color adjustment processing (head shading correction processing).

  • Patent number: 6458486
    Abstract: Since it is possible to optionally adjust the used region of a negative electrode, it is possible to obtain a cell having an excellent balance of durability and discharge characteristic, and it is possible to reduce the resistance of a positive electrode. If only the positive electrode is charged before assembling the cell, it is possible to optionally adjust the used region of the negative electrode, so that it is possible to obtain the cell having the excellent balance of durability and discharge characteristic. Also after a large number of charge and discharge cycles are repeated, it is possible to suppress the internal pressure rise of the cell at the last stage of charge. In addition, it is possible to form a good cobalt conductive network on the active material of the positive electrode, and it is possible to reduce the resistance of the positive electrode.
