Abstract: An image sensor includes a plurality of pixels. Each pixel includes a photoelectric conversion portion, a reset gate for controlling removal of a charge accumulated in the photoelectric conversion portion, a charge accumulation portion, an accumulation gate for controlling a transfer of the charge from the photoelectric conversion portion to the charge accumulation portion, and a readout gate for controlling readout of the charge from the charge accumulation portion. The reset gate removes the charge generated in the photoelectric conversion portion by excitation light. The accumulation gate transfers the charge generated in the photoelectric conversion portion by fluorescence to the charge accumulation portion. The readout gate performs control for reading out the charge after the charge transfer is performed n times. The number n of the charge transfers is set for each pixel.

Abstract: A measurement device configured to measure a state of a target device that is capable of switching at least one transmission direction of a channel among transmission directions of electric power transmitted through a plurality of channels. The measurement device retains information indicating whether a reference transmission direction of the electric power transmitted to each of the channels is an input direction in which the electric power is input to the target device or an output direction in which the electric power is output from the target device, acquires a signal indicating a direction and intensity of the electric power, and computes at least one of an input electric power and an output electric power of the target device on the basis of the sign indicating the direction of the above-described signal with respect to the reference transmission direction of the electric power of each of the channels.

Abstract: An ECU includes: an electronically controlled valve opening degree control unit for increasing the opening degree of an electronically controlled valve, as a temperature of a coolant detected by a water temperature detecting unit is higher; and a gear ratio control unit for changing the gear ratio of an automatic transmission to a gear ratio to be used when a vehicle runs at a slow speed, when the temperature of the coolant detected by the water temperature detecting unit is equal to or higher than a temperature when the electronically controlled valve opening degree control unit sets the opening degree of the electronically controlled valve to be a maximum opening degree, and when an engine speed detected by an engine speed detecting unit is slower than a preset engine speed and a load to an engine detected by a load detecting unit is larger than a preset load.
