Abstract: An object detection apparatus detects an object in a vicinity of a moving body in a state of being mounted to the moving body. The object detection apparatus measures a reverberation frequency that is a frequency of a reverberation signal that is generated in a transceiver that externally transmits a transmission wave that is an ultrasonic wave and receives a reception wave that includes a reflected wave of the transmission wave from the object. The object detection apparatus detects a specific segment that is an occurrence segment in which occurrence of beat that is attributed to a plurality of reverberation frequency components is confirmed in the reverberation signal, or a non-occurrence segment in which the occurrence of beat does not significantly occur. The object detection apparatus sets a measurement segment in which the reverberation frequency is measured in the non-occurrence segment based on a detection result of the specific segment.

Abstract: An article is provided that includes a polymer having a surface that has excellent heat resistance, weathering resistance, or the like and has a low coefficient of friction. Additionally, a method of manufacturing the article is provided. The article includes a polymer having a surface that has been plasma treated in flowing gas including at least one type of silicon-containing gas selected from the group consisting of tetramethylsilane, hexamethyldisiloxane, and hexamethyldisilazane. The polymer is selected from the group consisting of silicones and fluorocarbon polymers.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the prevention of local entrapment of air between an electromagnetic interfere suppression sheet attached to an adherend and the adherend, and thereby achieve placement of the electromagnetic interference suppression layer at a constant distance from the adherend surface and obtain a uniform electromagnetic interference suppression effect across the entire attachment surface. There is provided an electromagnetic interference suppression sheet comprising an electromagnetic interference suppression layer that contains a soft magnetic powder and an organic binder, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having a structured surface with the side opposite the structured surface being laminated in contact with the electromagnetic interference suppression layer, wherein a continuous groove reaching to the outer perimeter of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed in the structured surface.

Abstract: A tape lead wire includes a polymer resin film and conductor films. The conductor films are directly deposited on the surface of the polymer resin film without using any bonding layer. The total thickness of the tape lead wire can be made smaller than that of a conventional lead wire. The tape lead wire has a high flexibility, can be easily bent, can extremely reduce the bending spring rigidity and is suitable for a magnetic head having a reduced size and load, which is imposed by a head supporting device on the magnetic head, and lowered flying height and peripheral speed.
