Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a main casing; a first cover; a drum cartridge; and a toner cartridge. The main casing has a first opening. The first cover is movable between: a first closed position in which the first cover closes the first opening; and a first open position in which the first opening is opened. The drum cartridge includes a photosensitive drum. The drum cartridge is attachable to and detachable from the main casing through the first opening in a state where the first cover is in the first open position. The toner cartridge is configured to accommodate toner therein. The toner cartridge is attachable to and detachable from the drum cartridge. The first cover has a second opening smaller than the first opening. The second opening allows the toner cartridge to pass therethrough but does not allow the drum cartridge to pass therethrough.

Abstract: An image forming device is provided with a housing formed with an opening, a cover configured to move between a closing position and an opening position, and a plurality of process cartridges including a first process cartridge and a second process cartridge. The first and second process cartridges respectively include first and second photosensitive drums configured to rotate about first and second drum axes both extending in a first direction. The first and second developing devices are configured to supply toner to the first and second photosensitive drums, respectively. The first and second supplying devices are formed with first and second supply ports through which the toner to be supplied to the first and second developing devices are provided, respectively. Both the first and second supplying ports are opened to outside the housing.

Abstract: [Problem] To provide a technology enabling accurate recognition of an occupancy status of each seat, while reducing entire system cost. [Solution] A server device 20 (information processing device) includes: a vacant seat information creation unit 210 configured to create vacant seat information indicating a vacant seat in a seat space, by processing an image received from an imaging means for capturing an image of the seat space; a seat selection unit 220 for performing a process of selecting a seat to be used by a customer, by the use of the vacant seat information and in collaboration with a POS (Point of Sale) device (shop terminal 30) for handling payment for an item; and a seat information output unit 230 for outputting information indicating the selected seat.

Abstract: There is disclosed an information processing system for effectively using information indicating the state of a store visitor at the time of a visit. The system includes a recognizer that recognizes a store visitor and a transporter at the time of a visit by analyzing video information captured by an outside-the-store camera provided outside a store. The system also includes a determiner that determines a moving range of each store visitor recognized by the recognizer. Furthermore, the system includes a deriving unit that derives a trading area of the store based on a determination result of the determiner.

Abstract: In response to determining that image forming in a color mode is performed on a first sheet and then image forming in a monochrome mode is successively performed on the second sheet, perform charging bias reduction processing gradually reducing a charging bias from first to second charging bias and developing bias reduction processing of gradually reducing a developing bias from first to second developing bias during a first inter-sheet period after the first sheet passes a first photosensitive drum and before the second sheet reaches the first photosensitive drum, and perform separation processing such that an execution period of the separation processing overlaps at least one of an execution period of the charging bias reduction processing and an execution period of the developing bias reduction processing, the separation processing being processing of controlling a moving mechanism to move a first developing roller from a contact position to a separation position.

Abstract: Shading correction is realized without sacrificing a noise characteristic and a sensitivity characteristic. A solid-state imaging element includes a plurality of pixels that are arranged two-dimensionally and each outputs analog voltage proportional to electron produced by photodiode and an AD conversion section that convert analog voltages output from the pixels into digital signals. First and second pixels included in the plurality of pixels differ in conversion efficiency with which a unit quantity of electrons output from the photodiodes are converted into the analog voltages.

Abstract: An effective service is decided for a store visitor. There is provided an information processing apparatus including a store visitor information generator and a service decider. The store visitor information generator generates store visitor information of a store visitor who visits a store by analyzing a video acquired from at least one image capturer that captures an outside of the store. The service decider decides, based on the store visitor information generated by the store visitor information generator, a service to be provided to the store visitor.
