  • Patent number: 9967393
    Abstract: A mobile electronic apparatus, a method for controlling a mobile electronic apparatus, and a non-transitory computer readable recording medium are disclosed. A wireless communication unit receives an incoming call signal. A movement detector detects a user's movement. A proximity sensor detects the proximity of an object. At least one processor outputs as a voice, through a sound output unit, information on a party that has transmitted the incoming call signal when the user's movement and the proximity of the object are detected during the receipt of the incoming call signal.

  • Publication number: 20150227219
    Abstract: A mobile phone 10 comprises a display 14, a touch panel 16, etc. A sentence is displayed on the display 14 by means of a sentence producing function, for example. If a user performs a selection operation to the sentence in this state, it is rendered in a state where a character string that is arbitrarily selected is sandwiched by a first cursor and a second cursor. If a slide operation in a rightward direction is performed when a character string being in a selected state is a single character, the first cursor is fixed and the second cursor is moved in the rightward direction. On the other hand, if a slide operation in a leftward direction is performed, the second cursor is fixed and the first cursor is moved in the leftward direction.

  • Patent number: 4521814
    Abstract: Graphic signals and literal (or drawing) signals are recorded substantially simultaneously by increasing or decreasing the number of beam components output from at least one of a literal head and a graphic head after a specified number of scanning lines, both of which heads are being synchronously fed in the sub-scanning direction. Variation of the number of beam components used in the head is used to change the scan length of the head, for synchronizing the feed pitch therefor with the feed pitch of the other head when the scan lengths of the two are not integrally related. Differences between the feed pitch and the scan length of the variable scan length recording head are corrected by slight adjustments of the head position in the sub-scanning direction.

  • Patent number: 4321631
    Abstract: In a method for reproducing a halftone picture by scanning, wherein a brightness and a width of a recording light beam to be projected on a photosensitive material is suitably controlled by means of picture signals obtained from the scanning of an original picture, a control method for reproducing a halftone dot cut away along a picture outline is disclosed, wherein a position of an outline in an original picture is detected, wherein the intersection of the outline with a halftone dot is discriminated by comparaing the two positions of the outline and the dot, and wherein a part of the dot positioned inside the outline is exposed by the recording light beam. This method is carried out by using a control device according to the present invention, which is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 4310234
    Abstract: A method for determining a supplementary amount of a developing solution for use in a film developer, wherein values of width signals for controlling a halftone dot generator of a picture reproducing machine are counted up, while a reproduction picture is recorded on a photosensitive film by the halftone dot generator according to picture signals which are obtained by scanning an original picture photoelectrically, and wherein a supplementary amount of the developing solution is determined according to the counted-up total value of the width signals prior to the development of the photosensitive film.

  • Patent number: 4297724
    Abstract: A method and machine for trying on a hair form in image, in which a hair pattern portion is deleted from a face shape to be fitted by a hair pattern, and the face shape with the hair pattern thereon is displayed. In the machine, the hair pattern and the face shape with a mask for masking the hair pattern portion on it are arranged optically in symmetrical positions with respect to a half-mirror, and the face shape with the hair pattern thereon is taken through the half-mirror by a video camera. In the method, the hair pattern and the face shape are taken by the camera to obtain first and second signals by which the face shape with the hair pattern thereon is formed and then is displayed.

  • Patent number: 4251625
    Abstract: A spot of light is formed upon a photosensitive material which is moved in a scanning direction, and the spot is vibrated to and fro along a vibration direction at a considerable angle to the scanning direction, and the amplitude of vibration, and the center of the vibration path, are controlled so that the spot exposes areas on the photosensitive material which form half-tone dots.

  • Patent number: 4232344
    Abstract: A device for reproducing a halftone picture by scanning, representing a marked simplification over conventional devices of this type. The recording beam is controlled by two deflection means and an aperture of simple shape and the control means allows dot patterns with a screen angle to be produced very simply.
