Abstract: A heating cooker to manage surface and inside temperatures of food. A heating portion heats inside of a heating space where the food material is placed. At least one processor controls the heating portion to perform driving for high-temperature heating after performing driving for low-temperature heating. During the driving for low-temperature heating, the heating portion may heat the inside of the heating space such that an average increase velocity of a reference temperature of the food material is lower than an average increase velocity of the reference temperature of the food material during the driving for high-temperature heating. During the driving for high-temperature heating, the heating portion may heat the inside of the heating space such that an average increase velocity of the reference temperature of the food material is higher than the average increase velocity of the reference temperature of the food material during the driving for low-temperature heating.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a top load washing machine having excellent functions while saving water. The washing machine may include a housing having a drain path installed at the bottom, a water collecting tub supported on the housing in the inside of the housing, and a rotating tub rotating on a shaft extending vertically in the inside of the water collecting tub. The rotating tub may include an outlet opening to the lower portion of a body member that can store water independently from the water collecting tub. The water collecting tub may include a first drain hole opening to the inside space of the water collecting tub, and a second drain hole communicating with the outlet. The drain path may include a first path connected to the first drain hole, and a second path connected to the second drain hole.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is useful as a stored object detector and a method of detecting stored objects configured to capture an image a movable storage portion, and objects stored in the storage portion, and configured to acquire storage information including at least one of position, size and quantity of the stored object based on the captured image. In addition, disclosed herein is a dishwasher configured to identify at least storage area of dish stored in a dish storage basket. It is possible to estimate a position of a basket, although the number of feature points is small. Therefore, when installing a detection indicator corresponding to the feature point, which is separated from the general configuration, to the basket, it is not required to install a large number of detection indicator, and thus it is possible to improve the appearance of the dishwasher.

Abstract: When a screen displayed on a display includes a scrollable scroll region, and a first condition is satisfied which defines that the scroll region is not scrolled to a scroll position at which the last part of the displayed content in the scroll region is displayed on a display, a control module executes a first control of setting a time limit to be longer as compared to a case where the screen does not include the scroll region or not darkening or turning off the display based on the time limit. On the other hand, when a screen displayed on the display includes a scroll region, and the first condition is not satisfied, the control module executes a second control of setting the time limit to be shorter as compared to the first control or darkening or turning off the display based on the time limit.

Abstract: A CPU displays on display surfaces a cancel screen for cancelling the key lock function, and moves an object image depending on movement of a touch position when the object image contained in the cancel screen is touched by the user and the touch position is moved. Furthermore, the CPU sets a cancel area of the key lock function on the cancel screen so that a direction in which the object image is moved to cancel the key lock function is not limited to one direction, and cancels the key lock function when the touch position to the object image is moved to the cancel area.
