Abstract: An information processing device has a control unit that acquires information relating to a fluctuation of power consumed by an electrical product operating around a user, and that estimates a product consumed by the user and a consumption quantity of the product based on the information relating to the fluctuation in the power.

Abstract: A pointer controller includes at least one processor; and a display that includes a pointer. The at least one processor is configured to control the display so as to display an elapsed time, switching between (i) a first display mode for display of the elapsed time cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that inherits a previous display time and (ii) a second display mode for display of the elapsed time non-cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that does not inherit the previous display time. The movement of the pointer controlled by the at least one processor is such that the first display mode and the second display mode differ from each other in a way of movement that indicates how the pointer moves.

Abstract: A separator for an electricity storage device has a cross-sectional crystal orientation of 0.85 or greater, and/or a method for producing the separator for an electricity storage device comprises a step of using a continuous mixer under conditions with a temperature of 20° C. to 70° C., a shear rate of 100 to 400,000 seconds?1 and a residence time of 1.0 seconds to 60 seconds, for mixing of polyethylene-containing polyolefin powder with a plasticizer to produce a mixed slurry, a step of extruding the mixed slurry and cooling it to solidification to process it into a cast sheet, and a step of biaxially stretching the cast sheet to an area increase factor of 20 to 200.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a control unit that executes: acquiring information on whether a trash bag placed in a trash can contains trash; and placing an order of a product related to the trash or the trash bag based on the number of times a state in which there is the trash in the trash bag is changed to a state in which there is no trash in the trash bag.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a control unit that executes acquisition of information relating to a sound emitted around a user, and estimation of a product consumed by the user and a consumption quantity of the product based on the information relating to the sound.

Abstract: An information processing device including a control unit configured to acquire the output of a smell sensor that senses a user and to estimate the amount of intake of a predetermined article of taste by the user based on the output of the smell sensor.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a control unit that executes: acquiring information on whether a trash bag placed in a trash can contains trash; and placing an order of a product related to the trash or the trash bag based on the number of times a state in which there is the trash in the trash bag is changed to a state in which there is no trash in the trash bag.

Abstract: An information processing device including a controller configured to execute detecting an alcohol contained in exhaled breath of a user who has returned home by using an alcohol sensor, and estimating consumption of an alcoholic beverage by the user after returning home based on a result of the detection of the alcohol.

Abstract: A pointer controller includes at least one processor; and a display that includes a pointer. The at least one processor is configured to control the display so as to display an elapsed time, switching between (i) a first display mode for display of the elapsed time cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that inherits a previous display time and (ii) a second display mode for display of the elapsed time non-cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that does not inherit the previous display time. The movement of the pointer controlled by the at least one processor is such that the first display mode and the second display mode differ from each other in a way of movement that indicates how the pointer moves.

Abstract: A pointer display apparatus includes a pointer which operates in an operation range; and at least one processor which controls an operation of the pointer. In a first display mode in which the processor displays display contents with the pointer, the processor sets an evacuation state of the pointer in an evacuation operation in which the pointer is temporarily evacuated from a pointing range to be different from an evacuation state of the pointer in a mode other than the first display mode.
