  • Publication number: 20180041699
    Abstract: The image display system includes a first image producer producing a first left-eye display image using a left-eye original image that is a left-eye captured image or a left-eye processed image produced therefrom, and producing a first right-eye display image using a right-eye original image that is a right-eye captured image or a right-eye processed image produced therefrom. A first image display unit allows left and right eyes of a viewer to view the first left-eye and right-eye display images. The first image producer produces the first left-eye and right-eye display images each corresponding to an image of a partial area of the original image. A second image producer produces, using at least one of the left-eye and right-eye original images, a second display image corresponding to an image of an area including the above partial area and being wider than that partial area.

  • Patent number: 9872177
    Abstract: Provided herein is a user authentication method in a monitoring system that communicates with electronic equipment and monitors the electronic equipment. The monitoring system performs processes including: demanding a user to perform predetermined authentication operation that gives rise to a change in running status of the electronic equipment; acquiring, from the electronic equipment, running information that indicates the running status of the electronic equipment, the running status having changed due to the authentication operation; detecting, on a basis of the running information, that the authentication operation has been performed in response to the demand; and permitting, upon detection, the user to access the running information acquired from the electronic equipment.

  • Patent number: 9829794
    Abstract: An exposure apparatus exposes a peripheral portion of a substrate to light, and includes an optical system configured to irradiate the substrate with the light, a stage configured to hold the substrate and be moved in a direction to position the substrate in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the optical system, and a controller configured to cause the stage to be moved. The controller moves the stage based on information about a distance between the optical system and the peripheral portion in a direction parallel to the optical axis and a telecentricity of the optical system so that a predetermined portion of the substrate is irradiated with the light from the optical system.
