Abstract: A rotating electrical machine includes: a three-phase coil including a U-phase coil, a V-phase coil, and a W-phase coil each formed of a flat wire; a neutral point bus bar forming a neutral point of the three-phase coil and formed of a conductive plate; and a temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the three-phase coil. The neutral point bus bar is formed in an arc shape along an outer periphery of the three-phase coil. One end of one coil in the three-phase coil is connected to a vicinity of a center of the neutral point bus bar in a circumferential direction thereof. One end of each of remaining two coils in the three-phase coil is connected to a vicinity of an end of the neutral point bus bar in the circumferential direction.

Abstract: A reception unit 26a receives a still image of a spherical object captured by a camera 52 and information on the angle of view or the focal length of the camera 52 having captured the object, transmitted from a terminal (e.g., mobile communication terminal 50) including the camera 52. A calculation unit 28a calculates coordinates of four corners of a rectangle 210 enclosing the object from the still image of the object received by the reception unit 26a, and calculates direction vectors extending toward the object from the focal point of the lens of the camera 52, from the calculated coordinates of the four corners of the rectangle 210 enclosing the object and the angle of view or the focal length of the camera 52. An estimation unit 30a estimates three-dimensional coordinates of the center of the object, based on the direction vectors calculated by the calculation unit 28a.
