  • Publication number: 20210356424
    Abstract: A gas sensor includes a measurement chamber, a reference gas chamber, a first cell, and a second cell. The first cell includes a first electrode in the measurement chamber and a second electrode in the reference gas chamber. The second cell includes a third electrode in the measurement chamber and a fourth electrode in the reference gas chamber. A gas sensor detects a first current that flows between the first electrode and the second electrode, detects a second current that flows between the third electrode and the fourth electrode, calculates a concentration of a specific gas component based on a detected value of the second current, estimates a change amount of oxygen concentration in the reference gas chamber based on a detected value of the first current, and corrects the detected value of the second current based on an estimated value of the change amount of the oxygen concentration.

  • Patent number: 10282067
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a touch panel display and circuitry for controlling the touch panel display such that an initial selection range of at least one of one or more character strings and one or more images is displayed. The circuitry determines, based on a predetermined condition of an input operation, a first mode and a second mode of altering the initial selection range. The circuitry alters the initial selection range by controlling the touch panel display such that, in response to a detection of the input operation and based on the determined mode, a starting point and/or an end point of the initial selection range are moved at a predetermined speed. The circuitry respectively controls the touch panel display under the first mode and the second mode such that the predetermined speed is different than, or the same as, a speed that the instruction object moves on the operation surface.
