PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact instrument for imaging a printed photograph that performs an imaging to make printed photographs into image data with sufficient light quantity by using a flash of a digital camera. SOLUTION: The instrument for imaging a printed photograph is provided with: a mount 1 for placing the printed photograph; a mechanism which fixes a digital camera DC to turn downward just above the printed photograph; a reflection mirror 48B which reflects illuminating light exiting from the flash F of the digital camera DC; a diffusion reflection part S which diffuses and reflects the illuminating light reflected by the reflection mirror 48B; and a magnifier lens 46B which is made coaxial to a lens of the digital camera DC. The printed photograph is imaged without halation by using the illuminating light diffused and reflected by the diffusion reflection part S. The magnifier lens 46B is a lens to make the digital camera which is set to perform distant view photography, perform close-range photography, so that light quantity of the flash of the digital camera DC which is lighted in photography is increased.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique for enabling a user steadily gazing a display to autonomously perform a blink. SOLUTION: The fatigue prevention apparatus 1 constituted of a digital camera 2, a blink decision device 3, an optical irradiation device 4, and an input device 5. The blink decision device 3 detects the uer's blink by subjecting the face image data accepted from the digital camera 2 to image processing. When the blink decision device 3 decides that the uer's blinks are fewer than the prescribed reference number of times assigned by the input device 5, the device sends the optical irradiation to the optical irradiation device 4. The fatigue prevention apparatus 1 irradiates the display with light in such a manner that the user feels repugnant. The fatigue prevention apparatus 1 keeps irradiating the display with the light until the user feels the blink next. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve, without affecting the operation of the shutter button of a camera, an attachment that is attached to the camera later and imparts particular effects to an image to be photographed by the camera. SOLUTION: The attachment 1 has a base 10 that can be fixed to a camera-having cellular phone 40. The base 10 includes a camera screw nut and a release fixing member 14. The attachment 1 fixed to the camera-having cellular phone 40 can be fixed to a tripod 60 via the camera screw nut. A user may directly operate the shutter button of the camera-having cellular phone 40 exposed from the attachment 1 or may operate it via a release 70 connected to the release fixing member 14.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a light guide plate of a type using scattered particles so that its brightness is sufficient, and its brightness unevenness becomes small. SOLUTION: The light guide plate 210 is formed by dispersing scattered particles composed of nanoparticles, first micro-particles and second micro-particles in an acrylic resin which is a transparent material, and molded in a plate state. The nanoparticles are yttrium oxide of which the maximum diameter is nearly 30 nm, and the first micro-particles are silicone of which the maximum diameter is nearly 3.5 μm, and the second micro-particles are silicone of which the maximum diameter is nearly 12 μm. Light which enters from a light source facing the end face of the light guide plate 210 into the light guide plate 210 is scattered by the scattered particles and emitted from the emitting surface.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform changing over to a state of display from a state of a mirror of a multifunctional image display apparatus which employs the state of the mirror and the state of the display at appropriate timing. SOLUTION: The multifunctional image display apparatus 1 is equipped with a half mirror 40 on the inner side of a hole 11 prepared on the front side of a case 10 and is equipped with a liquid crystal display device therein. Also, the front of the case 10 is provided with a person detecting sensor 12. When a person comes into the front of the person detecting sensor 12, the sensor detects the same and generates a detection signal. The liquid crystal display device starts displaying an animation image taking advantage of the generation of the detection signal. As a result, the multifunctional image display apparatus 1 changes over to the state of the display from the state of the mirror. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide technology by which a user using a personal computer, a television or the like can recover fatigue, without requiring troublesome effort. SOLUTION: A fatigue recovery aiding apparatus comprises an image generation means for generating an image of a prescribed object to be moved reciprocatively in the horizontal direction on the screen of an image display device and a display control means for automatically displaying the image of the object on the screen of the image display device. When a user, looking downward, follows the image of the object, user's fatigue can be recovered. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a user to easily view an image on a head-mounted type image display apparatus. SOLUTION: The image display apparatus includes a glasses type main body, and a display apparatus 20 is attached to a frame corresponding to one of right and left eyes. The display apparatus 20 incorporates a conversion substrate 25, a back light unit 26 and a liquid crystal display 27 inside the case 21. A lens barrel 22 is arranged on the side facing the user's eye of the case 21, and a magnifying lens 28 and an antireflection filter F are arranged inside the lens barrel 22. The user views the image light of the image displayed on the liquid crystal display 27 through the magnifying lens 28 and the antireflection filter F. The antireflection filter F is vertical to the optical path of the image light, and both sides of the filter F are smooth and flat. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a camera suited for picking up both the images of a reduced image and an expanded image. SOLUTION: The camera comprises a case body 11 incorporating a CCD 15, and a lens barrel 12. A contactor 20 built into an objective lens 40 and a rotatable operator 30 are fitted to the inside and the outside of the lens barrel 12, respectively. The contactor 20 moves back and forth in the direction of a light axis K due to the rotation of the operator 30. A user operates the operator 30 to move the contactor 20 and the objective lens 20 back and forth. When the operator 30 advances and retreats reduced and expanded images can be picked up, respectively. An objective lens 40 is focused to the tip center of the contactor 20 when the expanded image is to be picked up. While the tip of the contactor 20 is in contact with the objective whose image is to be picked up, the expanded image is picked up.
