Abstract: An electronic device (e.g., an imaging apparatus) is implemented to obtain excellent sound effects while miniaturization and slimming down are achieved. An electronic device (e.g., an imaging apparatus) has a casing; a sound emitting device that has a sound emitting portion and is provided inside the casing; a movable member provided to the casing to have a gap between the movable member and the casing; and a communicating portion that communicates between the sound emitting portion of the sound emitting device and the movable member inside the casing.

Abstract: A camera body to which an interchangeable lens capable of changing zoom magnification is mountable. The camera body includes a sound pickup section that picks up sounds to generate audio data and a sound processor that changes settings relating to directionality of the sound pickup section in conjunction with the zoom magnification of the interchangeable lens. When the interchangeable lens is positioned to provide the minimum magnification of zoom, the sound processor sets the directionality of the sound pickup section to a directionality by which sounds in the widest region can be picked up based on the zoom range information. When the interchangeable lens is positioned to provide the maximum magnification of zoom, the sound processor sets the directionality of the sound pickup section to a directionality by which sounds in the narrowest region can be picked up based on the zoom range information.

Abstract: An audio recording device comprises an audio input unit, a detect unit, and a control unit. The audio input unit includes a connection unit and an audio receive unit. The connection unit is configured to connect with an external pickup device. The audio receive unit is configured to receive the input of an audio signal from the pickup device. The detect unit is configured to detect the connection between the connection unit and the pickup device. The control unit is configured to display information indicating the input state of the audio signal from the pickup device in response to detection of the connection between the connection unit and the pickup device by the detect unit.

Abstract: A sound pickup device is provided that includes a first housing, a second housing, a first microphone, and a second microphone. The second housing is coupled to the first housing and is configured to change positions with respect to the first housing. The first microphone is mounted on the first housing and is configured to output a first audio signal based on sound picked up by the first microphone. The second microphone is mounted on the second housing and is configured to output a second audio signal based on sound picked up by the second microphone.

Abstract: A sound processing apparatus includes a sound input unit configured to input a sound signal, a signal processor having a band-limiting filter for limiting a passing band of the sound signal, and being configured to apply a predetermined signal processing on a sound signal output from the band-limiting filter, and a controller configured to control a band width of the passing band of the band-limiting filter. The controller changes the band width of the passing band according to a level of the sound signal, and makes a speed at the time of expanding the band width faster than a speed at the time of narrowing the band width.

Abstract: The present invention provides a microphone device in which the directivity of the microphone is automatically adjustable depending on the position of the head of the speaker. The microphone device 201 mounted on a vehicle, includes a plurality of sound pickup units 203, 204 which generate an input signal depending on changes in an acoustic pressure caused by a sound wave; a position detecting unit 202 which detects a position of a head of a predetermined occupant in the vehicle; and an arithmetic processing unit 209 which performs a predetermined directive arithmetic process for the input signal based on the position of the head detected by the position detecting unit 202 and positions of the sound pickup units 203, 204.

Abstract: The present invention provides a microphone device with good frequency characteristics. The microphone device can pick up sound faithfully. In detail there is provided a microphone device comprising a microphone element, a signal processor, and a cover disposed over the microphone element and the signal processor, the cover including a mesh structure occupying 25% or more of at least one surface of the cover.

Abstract: The objective of the invention is to produce a thermoplastic resin capable of producing a casting with a superior granular surface appearance like marble while maintaining the impact strength and other properties of the base resin. The present invention pertains to a thermoplastic composition with a granular surface appearance like marble produced by mixing and dispersing 0.001-10 parts by weight of thermosetting resin with 100 parts by weight of thermoplastic resin.
