Abstract: A recording device includes a receiver, a recorder, and first and second selectors. The receiver is to be connected to a vehicle exterior imaging device and a vehicle interior imaging device, and receives vehicle exterior images and vehicle interior images generated in time series from the vehicle exterior imaging device and the vehicle interior imaging device, respectively. The recorder records the vehicle exterior images and the vehicle interior images received by the receiver. The first and second selectors respectively select a first image and a second image from the vehicle exterior images or the vehicle interior images recorded in the recorder. The first image indicates a first behavior previously determined as having an apparent risk in a behavior of the vehicle or the occupant. The second image indicates a second behavior previously determined as having a potential risk in a behavior of the vehicle or the occupant.

Abstract: An image process unit of a medical video recording and reproducing system generates video data of a subject on the basis of an image signal; a characteristic point information generation unit generates characteristic point information for a frame specified in the video data; a server records characteristic point information and video data in an associated manner; a reproduction control unit controls reproduction of a past video on the basis of video data read from the server; a synthesization unit generates synthesized image data obtained by synthesizing live video data from the image process unit and past video data from the reproduction control unit in such a manner that the live video and the past video are displayed simultaneously; and the reproduction control unit conducts control of pausing reproduction at a frame to which the characteristic point information of the past video data is added.

Abstract: Under usual conditions, a first computation unit computes/outputs a first light adjustment signal in accordance with a photometric signal, and a second computation unit performs control of at least part of the endoscope system. The second computation unit computes/outputs the second light adjustment signal in accordance with the photometric signal together with the at least partial control while suppressing an increase in a processing load when an abnormality has occurred in the first computation unit.

Abstract: A magnesium based alloy exhibiting superior elevated-temperature properties such as creep resistance and tensile strength and die castability such as reduced hot-cracking and die-sticking, contains about 2 to 9 wt. % aluminum, 6 to 12 wt. % zinc, 0.1 to 2.0 wt. % calcium, optionally 0.2 to 0.5 wt. % manganese, and the balance comprising magnesium. The alloy includes the intermetallic compound Mg--Al--Zn--Ca at the grain boundaries of the magnesium crystals. The alloy according to this invention may have a creep extension of less than about 0.6% at the tensile stress of about 35 MPa and the temperature of about 150.degree. C., and a tensile yield strength of at least 110 MPa at the temperature of about 150.degree. C. The alloy is particularly useful in die casting applications.

Abstract: A brake disc rotor which includes sliding plates on the inside and outside which are in parallel with and separated from each other in the axial direction of an axle; a plurality of inner and outer partition walls radially arranged between the sliding plates; a plurality of passages radially formed between the inner and outer partition walls; a plurality of inlet and outlet openings for communicating the passages; and a plurality of connecting openings for communicating the mutually adjacent passages. The stream flowing from the inlet opening is formed along an upper wall of the inner partition walls and the stream is formed in a flow separation portion in the vicinity of a lower wall of the outer partition wall through the connecting openings.

Abstract: A brake disc rotor comprising: sliding plates on the inside and outside in parallel with and separated from each other in the axial direction of an axle; fins composed of a plurality of curved long partition walls provided between the sliding plates, radially extending from the internal portion to the external portion, and inclined with respect to the radial direction, and a plurality of curved short partition walls provided in parallel between the mutually adjacent long partition walls and extending from a large-diameter internal portion to the external portion; a plurality of ventilation holes radially divided by the fins and composed of the upper and lower ventilation holes with the short partition walls; and inlet and outlet openings opened inward and outward in the radial direction thereof.
