Abstract:
A solar panel (3) of the present invention, above which a pointer (7) mounted on a pointer shaft (6) inserted in a through hole (3a) in a center portion of the solar panel moves, includes a plurality of solar cells (11-16) arranged in a substantially circular shape, and these solar cells (11-16) have been divisionally formed into a substantially spiral shape so that the pointer is positioned over two of the plurality of solar cells (11-16). Accordingly, the pointer (7) can always be positioned over two of the plurality of solar cells (11-16), and therefore a decrease of light-receiving area due to the pointer (7) can be distributed between the two solar cells (11-16). As a result, a decrease in the output current of the plurality of solar cells (11-16) over which the pointer (7) is positioned can be suppressed, and the output current of the entire plurality of solar cells (11-16) can be improved.

Abstract:
A data acquisition circuit (161, 162) sets one of the potential value at one end of a signal line and the value of a current flown thereto when one end of a current path of a drive device (T3) is connected to a light emitting device with the other end thereof set to a potential value where no current flows to the light emitting device (111). Then the circuit causes current to flow via the current path and the signal line and acquires one of the value of the current flown to the signal line and the potential value at the one end of the signal line according to the set value. A correction operation circuit (132) acquires a threshold voltage and a current amplification factor of the drive device based on one of the current and potential values thus acquired as well as on one of the potential and current values thus set.
Abstract:
After the most-frequently-used font size (Sdominant) is determined on a Web page acquired from a server unit 10, all of the text items are changed to the optimum font size (Sopt). At the same time, the text items whose original font size is smaller than the most-frequently-used font size (Sdominant) are changed to an inconspicuous italic font pattern and the text items whose original font size is larger than Sdominant are changed to a conspicuous bold font pattern.

Abstract:
The invention discloses a display drive apparatus for driving a display pixel, including a light-emitting element and a light-emission drive element, connected to a data line, further including a reset circuit and a gradation current supply circuit. The reset circuit initializes the display pixel by applying a reset voltage to the display pixel wherein the reset voltage has a voltage value being such that an absolute value of a potential difference applied between a control terminal of the light-emission drive element and one end thereof is a larger value than an absolute value of a threshold voltage of the light-emission drive element, and has a polarity capable of discharging charge remaining in wiring capacitance of the data line and a capacitance component of the display pixel. The gradation current supply circuit supplies a gradation current having a signal polarity and magnitude corresponding to a gradation value of display data to the display pixel initialized.
Abstract:
In a digital camera 1, when a shutter key is operated, a CPU 13 executes the shooting process (Step S103), extracts a face image from this shot image (Step S104), and judges whether the extracted face image is a face image registered in a face image registration table (Step S106). When judged that the registered face image is contained in the image which has just been shot, the CPU 13 turns ON an already-shot flag for the registered face image judged to be contained in the face image registration table (Step S107). Also, the CPU 13 detects a face image that has not been shot yet which is a registered face image for which the already-shot flag F is in the OFF state in the face image registration table (Step S108), and displays the detected face image that has not been shot yet in the display section 14 (Step S109).
Abstract:
When directed to transmit data in a personal computer (1), a document image data generating section (22) generates document image data obtained by imaging a document content based on document data for every page. An index image generating section (23) composites a file name of the document data and icon image data corresponding to application software by which the document data is created, and thereby generates index image data. The folder generating section (26) generates a PC folder based on the document image data, the index image data, and the management data, and generated by a management file generating section (24) transmits the PC folder to a digital camera (51) via a data transmitting section (27).

Consequently, rise in temperature of an other end of the electrically conductive component due to heat transmission from the reactor can be suppressed and heat loss of the reactor through the electrically conductive component may be reduced.
Abstract:
In a digital camera (1), when a plurality of EV shift values are selected and operation of a set key is performed by a user, a CPU calculates shutter speeds that respectively correspond to the selected EV shift values (S6). Next, the CPU repeatedly picks up images in sequence at the individual calculated shutter speeds, sorts the picked-up frame image data by shutter speed, and generates moving image data for individual shutter speeds. Then, the CPU multiple-displays the generated moving image data for each shutter speed as through images (S9), and records the generated moving image data for each shutter speed (S17).
