Abstract: An image pickup device provided with an automatic focusing function includes an image pickup unit, a face detection unit, a receive unit, and an automatic focusing control unit. The image pickup unit is configured to input image data corresponding to a subject. The face detection unit is configured to separately detect eyes, a nose, and a mouth of a human face from the image data input from the image pickup unit. The receive unit is configured to receive from a user a selection of any one of the eyes, the nose, or the mouth as a ranging area. The automatic focusing control unit is configured to perform automatic focusing control based on the ranging area selected by the user.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus (1), including: a recording unit (11) configured to record as an image file (200) an image data generated by conversion from an optical image representing a subject to an electrical signal in an imaging device (12); an interface (15) for connecting the imaging apparatus (1) to an external device; an information adding unit (10) configured to add information to the image file (200); and an print request unit (10) configured to issue a request to a printer (2) to print out only the image file (200) to which the information is added by the information adding unit (10) when the image file (200) is printed out.

Abstract: An image pickup device includes an image pickup unit configured to convert a subject image to image data and to output the image data and a face image recognition unit configured to recognize a face image from the image data. When the face image is recognized by the face image recognition unit, the face image portion is cut out and stored as a separate image file.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for fabricating resin mats having a plurality of mat layers is provided. Multiple mat sheets are conveyed between two spaced rollers while being impregnated with resin contained in at least one reservoir formed between the rollers and sheets. A resin feeding system supplies resin to a location between the sheets which substantially corresponds to the longitudinal centerlines of the sheets to ensure adequate impregnation of the mat layers while minimizing any residual resin from adhering to the rollers. Dam members are also positioned between the rollers at the longitudinal sides of the sheets to aid in forming the reservoir(s) and also to maintain an appropriate spacing between the rollers. The roller spacing is configured to permit a predetermined degree of slippage between the rollers and the mat layers.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of and apparatus for detecting the end point of plasma treatment. The method includes steps: selecting a plasma spectrum having a characteristic wavelength from the plasma spectrum occurring at the time of the plasma treatment reaction of a specimen; computing a secondary differential value of a function of the quantity of the plasma spectrum selected and the plasma treatment reaction time of the specimen; and detecting the end point of the plasma treatment reaction of the specimen by comparing the secondary differential value computed with preset reference values for judgment.
