Abstract:
A recording and reproducing apparatus can translate a detecting device for detecting information, such as the kind and content of tape cassette and a reel lock mechanism releasing device to proper positions corresponding to tape cassettes of different sizes. A tape cassette information detecting means (71) and reel lock releasing means (72a, 72b) can be translated to positions at which large and small tape cassettes are in use through a swing drive member (54), a translating lever (73), a driving link (74), a detection mechanism holding member (75) and a reel lock releasing plate (77) in unison with a movement of reel mounts (44, 45).

Abstract:
A tape-loading mechanism of a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus according to the present invention has a tape travel system in which a magnetic tape drawn out of a supply-side tape reel is helically wound around a drum along a lead thereof by tilted guides respectively provided on inlet and outlet sides of the drum and tape guides respectively provided on inlet and outlet sides thereof, passed via a capstan and wound around a takeup side tape reel. A vertical position of the lead of the drum is set equal to that of a lower edge of the tape in a state immediately before the magnetic tape is loaded onto the drum. The magnetic tape is twisted in the middle of the tape travel system in order to cancel difference in tension between upper and lower edges of the magnetic tape when the magnetic tape is loaded onto the drum.
Abstract:
A projection display unit includes a projection optical system, a polarization separation device, and a detection optical system. The projection optical system includes an illuminator, a projection lens, and a light valve. The light valve modulates illumination light supplied from the illuminator on a basis of an image signal, and outputs the modulated illumination light toward the projection lens. The polarization separation device is disposed between the light valve and the projection lens. The polarization separation device separates entering light into a first polarized component and a second polarized component, and outputs the first polarized component and the second polarized component in respective directions that are different from each other. The detection optical system includes an imaging device. The imaging device is disposed in a position that is optically conjugate to a position of the light valve, and receives, via the projection lens and the polarization separation device, light based on invisible light applied along a plane in vicinity of the projection surface. The following conditional expression (1): d1
Abstract:
[Object] To provide an input apparatus, a control apparatus, a control system, a control method, and a handheld apparatus with which a user can easily control a movement and stop of a pointer displayed on a screen. [Solving Means] An input apparatus (1) includes a sensor unit (17) for detecting a movement of a casing (10) and a button (11). An MPU (19) outputs a determination code when a press of the button (11) is released within a first time period. On the other hand, when the button (11) is pressed and held for a time period equal to or longer than a first time period, a movement command (V x , V y ) is output from after an elapse of the first time period. Accordingly, the button (11) is provided with a function corresponding to a determination input button and a function corresponding to an input button for controlling a movement and stop of a pointer, for example. As a result, a user can easily control the movement and stop of the pointer without mixing up an input operation for moving and stopping the pointer with other input operations.
Abstract:
[Object] To provide an information processing apparatus, an input apparatus, an information processing system, an information processing method, and a program that are capable of improving operability when a target object is selected on a screen. [Solving Means] Provided is a control apparatus (40) to which, when a button (13) is pressed in a state where a pointer (2) is indicating an area (4A) around an icon (4) on a screen (3), a signal indicating that the button (13) has been pressed and a signal of positional information of the pointer (2) at that time are input, and the control apparatus (40) performs movement control such that the pointer (2) indicates the icon (4) based on those signals. Therefore, even when the pointer (2) is not directly indicating the icon (4), the icon (4) can be indicated by indicating the area (4A) around the icon (4), thus improving operability in selecting the icon (4) on the screen (3) by the pointer (2).
