Abstract: A work line includes: a first work carried out by a first target worker; and a second work carried out by a second target worker on a resultant product of the first work. A first model motion is a model motion when the first target worker passes the resultant product of the first work to the second target worker. A second model motion is a model motion when the second target worker receives the resultant product of the first work from the first target worker. When the first target worker carries out the first work in a virtual space, a simulation system draws a first model worker performing the first model motion in the virtual space. When the second target worker carries out the second work in the virtual space, the simulation system draws a second model worker performing the second model motion in the virtual space.

Abstract: A simulation system simulates a predetermined work in a virtual space. A comment database indicates a correspondence relationship between a comment created by a reference worker regarding the predetermined work and a characteristic of the reference worker. The simulation system acquires information on a model motion that serves as a model when carrying out the predetermined work. The simulation system acquires information on a characteristic of a target worker carrying out the predetermined work. The simulation system extracts the comment associated with the characteristic of the reference worker corresponding to the characteristic of the target worker, based on the comment database. When the target worker carries out the predetermined work in the virtual space, the simulation system draws a model worker performing the model motion in the virtual space and presents the extracted comment to the target worker.

Abstract: A robot includes heat-generating members such as an actuator in spaces surrounded by exterior members. A heat-transfer section transfers heat of the heat-generating members to the exterior members. A heat-transfer control section adjusts the amount of heat transfer between the heat-generating members and the exterior members by operating the heat-transfer section. The heat-transfer section has a thermally conductive member that can shift between a coupling position for thermally coupling the heat-generating members and the exterior members, and an interrupting position for interrupting thermal conduction between the heat-generating members and the exterior members.

Abstract: In a communication system 1, a first communication unit 12 of an equipment server 10 communicates messages in a common data format with plural device servers 11. A equipment control unit 13 controls the access control system 6 including one or more passage restriction units 7, based on the message received by the first communication unit 12. The passage restriction units 7 are provided in the building 2 so as to be capable of restricting passage of plural devices 3. The device server 11 transmits the message to the equipment server 10 when the device 3 passes through a place where the passage restriction unit 7 is provided. The equipment control unit 13 determines whether or not the message is invalid based on the message received by the first communication unit 12. The equipment control unit 13 outputs an authentication request to the access control system 6.

Abstract: Provided is a radio communication device capable of reducing interference, caused by non-SR transmission, with a basic service set (BSS) performing spatial reuse (SR) transmission. An SR transmission resource control unit (107) of the radio communication device (SR initiator) (100) determines transmission resources for an SR signal to be transmitted by means of SR to a second BSS other than a first BSS to which the radio communication device (100) belongs on the basis of radio quality information transmitted from other radio communication devices (SR responders) in the first BSS. A radio transmission/reception unit (101) transmits the SR signal by using the determined transmission resources.
