The content distribution apparatus includes: the second communication unit that receives a request for first content data from the playback apparatus; and a distribution controller that causes the second communication unit to transmit the first content data and second content data that is determined to be played back next to the first content data in a playback order of pieces of content data, when the received request for the first content data includes gapless playback instruction information.

Abstract: An inexpensive small-sized screen printing machine having low redundancy and high production efficiency and applicable to a dual conveying-type component mounting machine. A pair of substrate supporting tables juxtaposed in a specific direction is provided. Screen printing is alternately performed by a single print executing section in a common area which can be shared by the two substrate supporting tables. In doing so, when one substrate supporting table located at a print position among the pair of substrate supporting tables starts exiting the print position, the other substrate supporting table starts entry to the print position.

Abstract: Disclosed is an inexpensive small-sized screen printing machine having low redundancy and high production efficiency and applicable to a dual conveying-type component mounting machine. The screen printing machine comprises a pair of substrate supporting tables provided to hold a respective substrate that is a print object and which is juxtaposed in a direction that is perpendicular to a conveying direction of the substrate, and a print executing section that performs a printing process alternately on the substrate held by the pair of substrate supporting tables. Due to the print executing section being driven in the direction under control of a control unit, a print position where the substrate supporting tables execute alternate printing is changed within a range in which one of the pair of substrate supporting tables and the other of the pair of substrate supporting tables oppose each other in the direction.

Abstract: A component mounting apparatus includes: an operational sequence supervision unit which is created in compiler language determining an operational sequence specifying a series of sequence operations of suctioning, recognizing and mounting a component; and a second memory unit which stores a custom program, created in interpreter language and specifying an operation different from the series of sequence operations, and custom program designation information that designates execution of the custom program. The operational sequence supervision unit controls a switching process for switching from the series of sequence operations to an interpreter language processing execution routine for executing the custom program, during, or before or after, the series of sequence operations in accordance with the custom program designation information.

Abstract: A screen printing apparatus includes a printing execution unit that performs screen printing on a substrate. At least one substrate support table that is provided movably along a specific direction orthogonal to the conveying direction. A table drive mechanism that moves the substrate support table at least between substrate entry and exit positions along a specific direction. The substrate entry and exit positions are set asymmetrically with respect to the specific direction. A printing execution unit drive mechanism is provided to drive the printing execution unit along the specific direction. A control unit is provided to control the printing execution unit drive mechanism so that the printing execution unit is driven to set the printing position on a substrate conveying path needed for the substrate support table to move from the substrate entry to the substrate exit.

Abstract: A transmission control device generates, based on a content stream acquired from an external source, auxiliary information necessary for at least one of recording and playback of a content in the content stream and transmits a transmission target stream to an external device. The transmission target stream includes a first stream portion based on the content stream and a second stream portion based on the generated auxiliary information.

Abstract: A screen printing apparatus in which two printing units are provided in a production line which transports boards from a single board exit position set on a downstream side in a conveyance direction. One printing unit being disposed is available for set-up tasks while the other printing unit is working. Since set-up tasks can be conducted in one printing unit while the other printing unit is working, then it is possible to improve through-put dramatically even in cases where small-volume diverse-component production is carried out in a single lane.

Abstract: The content reproduction device receives, from a server, information for indicating the location of content reproduction control information that is required for acquiring the content reproduction control information, and acquires the content reproduction control information from the server. Then, the content reproduction device extracts AV data and clip identification information for specifying clip information for managing the AV data. Then, the content reproduction device converts a predetermined part of the information for indicating the location of the content reproduction control information by applying the clip identification information and a predetermined conversion rule, generates information for indicating the location of the clip information and the AV data, and acquires the clip information and the AV data from the server.

Abstract: A player which is capable of playing a video data of low bit rate format, e.g., DVD-VR format, can not play a video data of high bit rate format, e.g., BD-RE format unless the video data is transcoded. Transcoding of video data generally requires a large size storage area. Based on an original navigation information for the video data of high bit rate format, a predictive navigation information for the video data of low bit rate format is generated. Using the original and predictive navigation information, the transcoding is done by sections.

Abstract: A multi-beam photoelectric sensor is disclosed which can be fabricated by selecting the length of a light projection/light-receiving columnar member and the number and pitches of optical axes in accordance with the width of a hazardous area of an object or the diameter of the minimum object to be detected. A projector string or a photo-detector string includes an optical module string having an alignment of a plurality of optical modules with an optical system for one optical axis, a light projection circuit for one optical axis and a plurality of flip-flops corresponding to one stage of a shift register, integrated with each other, and a flat cable. The flip-flops in the adjacent optical modules are connected in cascade by the adjacent module conduction wires thereby to make up a shift register. The optical modules making the optical module string are sequentially activated by the data sequentially sent by the shift register.
