Abstract: A control device that determines tape reference positions having a fixed positional relationship with first origin positions based on first positions of tape feeding devices when leading ends of carrier tapes are detected and the first origin positions of the tape feeding devices immediately before leading end detection. Then, after determination of the tape reference positions, an interval between cavities is calculated based on a detection cycle of transmitted light amounts detected by light being transmitted through empty cavities. In addition, when a phenomenon, in which a detected light amount is equal to or smaller than a threshold, consecutively occurs after calculation of the interval between the cavities, it is detected that components are accommodated in the cavities.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and/or method that integrates excitable light emitting materials (that are transparent) into any surface to display an image. Light emitting materials may be integrated into uneven, irregular and/or random surfaces, displays may be formed on objects that are not practical for flat panel displays (e.g. steering wheels). Light emitting materials may be integrated onto or into the surface of a flat panel display that is responsive to excitation light of a laser pointer, thus allowing flat panel displays to be more effectively used in presentation applications. Since the light emitting materials are transparent, application of light emitting materials into objects does not obstruct the view of the objects when the light emitting materials are not being used to display images.
