Abstract: A controller apparatus that is connected to an information processing apparatus in a communicable manner includes a main body that is elastically deformable. The controller apparatus detects a user operation performed on the main body, and outputs information indicating the detected operation to the information processing apparatus. In addition, the outputted information is used in an authentication process of controlling a lock state of the controller apparatus or the information processing apparatus.

Abstract: Provided is a controller device including a controller main body and a control unit, in which the control unit receives an operation performed by a user on the controller main body, estimates a posture of the controller main body, and generates information representing the contents of the received operation and outputs the information, by using the estimation result.

Abstract: A drive device (7) that unwinds, in a first direction, a wire (WR) connected to an operation target (41, 551, 552) with predetermined tension and pulls the wire in a direction opposite to the first direction to cause the operation target to perform an action includes a motor (71), a first rotating member (74) that can be rotated by the motor in a second direction and in a direction opposite to the second direction about a rotation axis (Rx5), a pulling member (TM) that is provided rotatably coaxially with the first rotating member, holds an end (WR1) of the wire, rotates in the second direction to unwind the wire in the first direction, and rotates in the direction opposite to the second direction to pull the wire in the direction opposite to the first direction, and a pulling member side urging member (77) that urges the pulling member in the direction opposite to the second direction relative to the first rotating member, in which, when the wire is moved in the first direction due to an external factor, the

Abstract: Provided is a communication system including a controller installed on a hand of a user, an operation target remotely operated by the controller, and a relay apparatus that performs relaying between the controller and the operation target, in which the controller includes a first detection section that detects a motion of fingers of the user, a stimulus providing section that provides an external stimulus to the fingers of the user, and a control section that controls the stimulus providing section, the operation target includes a driving section that performs an action in reference to action information received, and a second detection section that detects the external stimulus to the operation target, and the relay apparatus transmits, to the operation target, the action information based on a detection result from the first detection section, and in reference to a detection result from the second detection section, transmits, to the controller, stimulus provision information for controlling the stimulus pr

Abstract: Disclosed is an operation device that includes a mounting section, a first position detection section, and a stimulus generation section. The mounting section is attached to a hand and fingers of a user. The first position detection section is disposed on the mounting section to detect the positions of the fingers. The stimulus generation section is disposed on the mounting section, placed at a position corresponding to one of the user's fingers, and configured to apply an external stimulus to the user.

Abstract: Provided is a gas sensor device including a plurality of sensitive members and a measuring instrument. The plurality of sensitive members have respective sensitive materials that react to molecules present in the air and targeted for measurement. The measuring instrument independently measures the respective reactions of the plurality of sensitive members to the molecules.

Abstract: An aroma chemical presentation apparatus includes an encapsulation body supporting unit that supports an aroma chemical encapsulation body in which an aroma chemical material is encapsulated, an action body that is brought into contact with the aroma chemical encapsulation body to cause the aroma chemical material in the aroma chemical encapsulation body to be emitted, and a derivation fan that forms an air flow in a predetermined direction for deriving the emitted aroma chemical material.

Abstract: [Problem to be Solved by the Invention] To predict the efficacy of a rheumatoid arthritis therapeutic agent, or find a simple and highly reproducible hiomarker that can be used to assess the activity of disease conditions and states of rheumatoid arthritis, and provide an effective method. [Solution] A method for predicting the efficacy of a rheumatoid arthritis therapeutic agent on a.

Abstract: The invention is a sunscreen cosmetic containing (a) a specific hydrophobic zinc oxide powder, (b) decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, and (c) an alkyl trimethicone having 6 to 12 carbons. Hydrophobic powder that has the noticeable effects of low oil absorption and a low apparent specific volume is stably blended into a sunscreen cosmetic as a UV radiation dispersing agent to produce a sunscreen cosmetic that has remarkably improved ease of washability after use.
