  • Publication number: 20210158642
    Abstract: A security apparatus identifies a first user associated with a first terminal apparatus within an area of a house to which entry is limited by a lock apparatus, and a second user associated with a second terminal apparatus approaching the house. The security apparatus determines a requirement for unlocking for the second user, based on a relationship of the second user with respect to the first user, and then determines whether the requirement for unlocking is satisfied. When the requirement for unlocking is satisfied, the security apparatus controls unlocking of the lock apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10801832
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: a distance measurement sensor that outputs a voltage according to a distance to a measurement object; and a control unit that supplies power to the distance measurement sensor at preset intervals and stops the power supply after a preset first period has elapsed. When performing control to determine that the measurement object has approached the apparatus in a state where an output voltage from the distance measurement sensor is equal to or higher than a preset threshold value, the control unit supplies power again and stops the power supply after a preset second period has elapsed, and then performs control to determine that the output voltage from the distance measurement sensor is a falsely detected output voltage when the output voltage during the power supply is equal to or higher than a preset voltage.

  • Patent number: 10493772
    Abstract: A superimposed transfer target film and ink ribbon is moved while being sandwiched by a thermal head and a platen roller, and during execution of a thermal transfer of thermally transferring ink of the ink ribbon to a transfer layer of the transfer target film by heat of the thermal head, the transfer target film is pulled and moved while leaving a sticking portion in which the ink ribbon sticks to the transfer target film by the heat. After the thermal transfer is ended, the transfer target film stops being moved, is enabled to be loosened, and a downstream portion of the ink ribbon is wound up and stretched while leaving the sticking portion sticking to the transfer target film. While leaving the downstream portion of the ink ribbon stretched, a downstream portion of the transfer target film is wound up, and the sticking portion is peeled.
