Abstract: A processing system includes a cutting tool, a sensor attached to the cutting tool, an analog-to-digital (AD) converter configured to perform sampling on an analog signal output from the sensor to generate a digital signal, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to, based on a rotation rate [rpm] of a rotor; an upper-limit period that is an upper-limit value of a process period; and an upper-limit pitch that is an upper-limit value of an angle pitch [degree], determine the process period and a sampling frequency with which the AD converter performs sampling such that a set value of the angle pitch is equal to the upper-limit pitch or less in a time period taken by the rotor to rotate N times with the process period that is equal to the upper-limit period or shorter.

Abstract: During a predetermined operation state in which the opening degree of a throttle valve is fixed, an air flow meter positioned more on the upstream side than a pressure control valve detects a first intake air amount when the opening degree of the pressure control valve positioned on the upstream side of the throttle valve is set to a predetermined first valve opening degree and a second intake air amount when the opening degree of the pressure control valve is set to a predetermined second valve opening degree smaller than the first valve opening degree. On the basis of the first intake air amount and the second intake air amount, a diagnosis is made regarding whether there is an abnormality in a first pipe, a second pipe, a third pipe and the like which are included in a blow-by gas recirculation system for blow-by gas treatment.

Abstract: A sensor base material and a photic base material such as a polarizing plate are stacked together. An opening is formed in the photic base material. Although the joining part of a flexible wiring board is joined to the sensor base material, a large portion of an opposing edge facing a display and input region, the opposing edge being part of the joining part, is positioned in the opening, so bubbles along the opposing edge are less likely to be generated, making the display quality of the display and input region less likely to be affected. In addition, since the both-side substrate ends of the joining part are sandwiched between the sensor base material and the photic base material, the joining part is less likely to be deformed, making it easy to prevent damage to the sensor base material.
