Abstract: An information processing device, to be used in an image capturing device that illuminates an object by an illumination means and captures reflected light from the object as a reflection image by a capturing means, includes a determination means for determining an irradiation angle range for irradiating the object by the illumination means, on the basis of two types of inclination statistic values that are values corresponding to the inclination distribution of the unevenness existing on a surface of the object.

Abstract: There is disclosed a process for producing a soybean protein material which comprises the steps of: hydrolyzing soybean protein with a protease in an aqueous system to an extent of hydrolysis of 5 to 20; if necessary, emulsifying an oil-and-fat ingredient with soybean protein in an amount of 5 to 50 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the soybean protein before or after the hydrolysis step; drying the resultant emulsified mixture; and, optionally, a step for dispersing an emulsifier being provided at any stage after emulsification with the oil-and-fat ingredient. The soybean protein material thus obtained has taste, color and water-dispersibility suitable for a pickling solution having a high concentration and thick drinking food such as soup with less foaming property.
