Abstract: A power supply system includes: a drone including a propeller, a motor for driving the propeller, a power control unit for supplying the motor, a battery storing electric power, a generator for generating the power, an engine for driving the generator, a fuel tank storing fuel to be supplied to the engine, and a power suppling device for supplying the power generated by the generator to a power supply target; a control unit for controlling various operations of the drone; and an operation management unit for controlling the operations of the drone. Upon receipt of a power supply request, the operation management unit flies the drone to the location of the target. After the drone arrives at the target, the control unit causes the generator to generate the power based on a command from the operation management unit to supply the power to the target via the power suppling device.

Abstract: An opening detection sheet to be attached to a packaging material includes a metal layer, an IC, an insulating layer, and a first adhesive layer. The metal layer is releasable from the packaging material and includes a slit. The IC is mounted on the metal layer so as to cover at least a portion of the slit and for communicating with an external device. The insulating layer is disposed on an opposite side from the IC with respect to the metal layer. The first adhesive layer is bonded to the insulating layer on an opposite side from the metal layer so as to be bonded to the packaging material.

Abstract: An application distribution device includes one or more processors and one or more memory devices storing instructions.

Abstract: Disclosed is an additive for imparting antimicrobial properties to a resin. The additive comprises a string polymer, at least one terminal of which has a positive charge, wherein the string polymer is a polymer containing structural units derived from a cationic polymerization initiator and a monomer containing a carbon-carbon double bond. By using this additive, it becomes possible to obtain an antibacterial resin molded body which can be prepared simply and inexpensively and which has high stability and safety.

Abstract: An image processing device includes a reader and a controller. The reader acquires a document image formed on a sheet. The controller acquires an area image in a designated area designated in the document image acquired by the reader, performs a character recognition process and a code recognition process on the area image, and in response to the character recognition process not recognizing a character, employs a code recognition result by a code recognition process performed on the area image as a recognition result of the area image.

Abstract: A processing apparatus includes a moving image file restoration unit configured to restore a moving image file and an additional information file restoration unit configured to restore an additional information file associated with the moving image file. The additional information file restoration unit starts restoration processing on the additional information file associated with the moving image file after the moving image file restoration unit starts restoration processing on the moving image file and before the restoration processing on the moving image file is completed. The moving image file restoration unit completes the restoration processing on the moving image file after the restoration processing on the additional information file is completed.

Abstract: An injector includes a nozzle provided with a valve seat, a valve body which is seated on or separated from the valve seat, and a displacement means for displacing the valve body. A resin flow passage through which molten resin flows is formed inside the nozzle. The resin flow passage includes a cross-sectional area varying portion having a cross-sectional area, in a direction orthogonal to a flow direction, which varies with increasing distance toward or away from the valve body. The displacement means is capable of stopping the valve body in any position in the cross-sectional area varying portion.
