Abstract: An organo polysiloxane to improve the abrasion and weather resistance of a hard coating layer obtained from a silicone-type hard coating composition. The hard coating composition contains a first organo polysiloxane having silicone-containing bond units selected from the group consisting of R—Si(—OX)2(—O*—), R—Si(—OX)(—O*—)2 and R—Si(—O*—)3) and a second organo polysiloxane having the same, where the second organo polysiloxane has a weight average molecular weight of 1/10 to 1/1.5 times that of the first organo polysiloxane. Further, a resin substrate having a hard coating layer made of a cured product of the hard coating composition that has improved abrasion and weather resistance. For resin substrates used in a bent state, the hard coating layer also improves the cracking resistance associated with mechanical stress.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes at least extraction, first calculation, recognition, determination, operation receiving, and recording modules. The extraction module extracts a feature amount from an image of a commodity captured by an image capturing module. The first calculation module compares a feature amount of each commodity registered in a dictionary with the extracted feature amount to calculate a similarity degree. The recognition module recognizes, as a commodity candidate, a commodity having a similarity degree higher than a threshold value from registered commodities. The determination module determines, as the captured commodity, a commodity candidate having a highest similarity degree from recognized commodity candidates. The operation receiving module receives operation for instructing an occurrence of incorrect recognition for the determined commodity candidate.
