Abstract: In a method of calculating a color correcting condition for a color image composed of plural pixels each separated into plural primary color density values, a statistic indicating a relationship between a primary color density value and a number of pixels showing the primary color density value is made for each primary color; a specific density value corresponding to a predetermined statistic value for each primary color from the statistic is calculated; an extracting condition for each primary color is determined based on the obtained specific density value; specific pixels are extracted from the plural pixels of the color image so as to satisfy the extracting condition; and the color correcting condition is determined based on the plural primary color density values of the extracted specific pixels.

Abstract: A noncontact tonometer for measuring intraocular pressure is provided. When a rotary solenoid (7) is supplied with electric power, a piston (4) within a cylinder (2) is moved up, and thereby air is jetted through a nozzle (9) of a head (3) toward an eye (H) of a subject. At the same time, infrared rays are projected onto the eye (H) from a light source (11). Reflected light from a cornea of the eye (H) is received by a light receiving sensor (12). A signal generated by the light receiving sensor (12) is transmitted to a control circuit (16) via a flat-state detecting circuit (13). As a result, the intraocular pressure of the eye (H) is measured. The noncontact tonometer further includes two condensers (17, 18). A command from the control circuit (16) is input to a condenser switching portion (20) by operating a driving switch (21). Thereby, one of the condensers (17, 18) is selected to supply the rotary solenoid (7) with the electric power.

Abstract: An automatic processing apparatus having a processing solution tank for processing a silver halide photosensitive material, includes a container accommodating a set of solid processing agents which can process a predetermined amount of the material, a detector for detecting an amount of the material to be processed, and a supplier for supplying an amount of the solid processing agents accommodated in the container into the processing solution tank in accordance with a detected amount of the material. The apparatus further includes a controller for controlling the supplier in which the controller controls the supplier to supply all amount of the solid processing agents remained in the container to the processing solution tank, when the processing agents are remained in the container after the predetermined amount of the material is completed to be processed.
