Patent number: 6978170Abstract: Two current electrodes 2 and 3 are arranged on a circumference of a subject 1, a distance between the two current electrodes being sufficiently shorter than a circumferential length of the subject 1. A current source 4 passes a current between the two current electrodes. A measuring electrode 5 is arranged adjacent to one of the two current electrodes 2 and 3. A measuring electrode 11 is arranged substantially opposite to the two current electrodes 2 and 3 across the subject 1. A voltmeter 7 measures a voltage generated between the measuring electrodes 5 and 11. A body fat computing unit 25 computes the quantity of subcutaneous fat 8 of the subject 1 according to the voltage measured with the voltmeter 7.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2000Date of Patent: December 20, 2005Assignee: Kao CorporationInventors: Tomohiro Onda, Masaki Fukuhara, Kazuo Maki, Toru Yamaguchi, Mitsuhiro Katashima, Tsuyoshi Kimura

Publication number: 20050135782Abstract: To realize an information processing apparatus for editing data which enables editing of data intuitively with a simple operation. A track segment is displayed at a position corresponding to a track number on a first coordinate axis in a track segment display area, with a range corresponding to the period from the start time to the end time of the track on a second coordinate axis, so that it is possible to intuitively notify a user of the place in the order and the performance time of each track based on the position relationship among track segments and the length thereof. Furthermore, in response to an operation to move a track segment along the first coordinate axis, the track number of a track corresponding to the track segment is changed; the order of tracks is also changed; and in addition, the track segment is displayed as having moved to the position corresponding to the changed track number and the changed place in the order.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2004Publication date: June 23, 2005Applicant: SONY CORPORATIONInventors: Akira Ando, Osamu Shimoyoshi, Toshihiro Morita, Kiyoshi Aida, Hideyuki Ono, Mitsuyuki Hatanaka, Tomohiro Onda, Junichiro Sakata
