Publication number: 20240139907Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus capable of more easily determining a maintenance timing by using event data. The information processing apparatus includes a state estimation unit that estimates a state of a grindstone by using event data supplied from an event sensor that outputs, as event data, a temporal change of an electrical signal obtained by photoelectrically converting an optical signal, and outputs a result of the estimation. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an information processing system or the like that tells a maintenance timing of a grindstone of a machine tool.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Tatsuya Higashisaka, Satoshi Ihara, Masaru Ozaki, Yasuyuki Sato, Tomohiro Takahashi

Patent number: 11966182Abstract: A fixing device includes a fixing member, a pressure member, and a pair of retention members each including a restriction surface. The restriction surface restricts a movement of the fixing member in an axial direction. The restriction surface includes a first contact area and a second contact area. The first area is an area more on a downstream side of a passing direction of a medium than a center of a pressure area in the passing direction, and also closer to the pressure area than an apex of the fixing member on an opposite side of the pressure area. The first contact area and the second contact area are each tilted at a certain gradient so as to be set apart from the end portion of the fixing member in the axial direction from a side of the apex toward a side of the pressure area.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2023Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: KYOCERA Document Solutions Inc.Inventors: Hironori Takahashi, Masakazu Uehara, Tomohiro Watatani, Shota Onishi, Yuhiro Sakai

Patent number: 11925865Abstract: A non-limiting example game system includes a processor incorporated in a main body apparatus, and the processor makes a first index image move toward an upper end from a lower end in a movement gauge in a parameter determination screen when a player starts a second parameter determination operation. When the first index image is stopped according to an operation of the player, a hitting power for a ball is determined based on the stopped position. Moreover, if the first index image is stopped, a second index image is moved up to a position that the first index image is stopped from the lower end in the movement gauge. The player performs a direction input during a direction input period that is a period of time that the second index image is being moved. Then, a trajectory after the ball starts moving is changed in a direction based on the direction input.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: NINTENDO CO., LTD.Inventors: Tomohiro Yamamura, Kodai Matsumoto, Shinya Saito, Hiroyuki Takahashi, Shugo Takahashi
