Abstract: In a robot control system, the operation of a mobile robot that moves autonomously inside a facility is controlled based at least on an image captured by a photographing device that photographs a blind area located at a blind angle to the mobile robot. When entry of the mobile robot into a predetermined area corresponding to the blind area is detected, the amount of information obtainable from an image captured by the photographing device is increased.

Abstract: A negative electrode material for a lithium-ion secondary battery comprising graphite particles satisfying x?2.0 when a compressive load required to consolidate to 1.7 g/cm3 in autograph measurement is x (kN/cm2), 5.0?y?20.0 when, a particle size at which a cumulative volume from a small diameter side of a volume-based particle size distribution measured by a laser diffraction method reaches 50% is y, the above mentioned x and y satisfy the following Formula (1), and a degree of graphitization satisfies 90.0% or more: 11.3x?0.66y+1.4?14.5??(1).

Abstract: A robot control system according to the present embodiment is a robot control system that controls a plurality of transport robots that is travelable autonomously in a facility. The robot control system: acquires error information indicating that an error has occurred in a first transport robot; acquires transported object information related to a transported object of the first transport robot; determines a second transport robot able to transport the transported object of the first transport robot among the transport robots based on the transported object information and the error information; and moves the second transport robot to a transfer location of the transported object of the first transport robot.

Abstract: A mobile robot receives first transmission information transmitted from a server device to manage the mobile robot in a state where wireless communication with the server device is possible, directly executes wireless communication with another mobile robot among the mobile robots and executes a reception process of receiving the first transmission information transmitted from the server device to manage the mobile robot from the other mobile robot in a case where wireless communication with the server device is not possible.

Abstract: An element body has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape whose length in a longitudinal direction and length in a width direction are larger than a length in a height direction. The element body has first and second principal faces opposed to each other in the height direction, first and second side faces opposed to each other in the width direction, and third and fourth side faces opposed to each other in the longitudinal direction. A plurality of internal electrodes are alternately arranged in the element body so as to be opposed to each other in the height direction. Each internal electrode has a main electrode portion and a leading portion. Each of a plurality of terminal electrodes has a first electrode portion arranged on the first principal face, and a second electrode portion arranged on the first side face and connected to the leading portion of each corresponding internal electrode.

Abstract: An annealing method for a GaAs wafer which uses incoherent light, e.g., infrared light generated from tungsten lamp, halogen lamp, etc. and a GaAs guard ring which surrounds the GaAs wafer. The thickness of the guard ring is 1.5 times more than that of the GaAs wafer, the internal diameter of the guard ring is less than diameter of GaAs wafer plus 3 mm and the width of the guard ring is less than 10 mm.

Abstract: A junction-type FET comprising a semiconductor substrate 21 of a first conductivity type, and island region 22 of a second conductivity type which comprises a channel region and is selectively formed in the semiconductor substrate 21, and a buried isolating region 27 which is selected from the group consisting of an intrinsic layer, a low impurity concentration layer of the second conductivity type and a layer of first conductivity type, the buried isolating layer being formed by ion implantation of impurities of the first conductivity type in the island region 22 while keeping the impurity concentration at the surface thereof relatively high, and the buried isolating layer substantially isolating the channel region from the surface.
