Abstract:
A three-dimensional virtual space simulator comprises a section for determining the action of an avatar according to the input by the user and generating action instruction data representing the content of the action, a section for determining the action of an agent autonomously and generating action instruction data representing the content of the action, and a process control section for displaying each character in a virtual space according to the action instruction data received from the sections wherein the process control section and a graphic process section share an interface for receiving the action instruction data from the avatar action instruction section, and an interface for receiving the action instruction data from the agent action instruction section. Consequently, a flexible participation mode of the user and high reliability are realized.
Abstract:
It is to provide a production process by which gelation can be prevented, in a case where a solvent is removed from a curable fluororesin to obtain a chief material resin, and then coating additives such as a curing agent are mixed to produce a powder coating composition, or in a case where a curable fluororesin, a curing agent and various additives are dissolved or dispersed in a solvent to prepare a raw material solution, and the solvent is removed from the raw material solution to directly produce a powder coating material.To a solution or dispersion of a curable fluorinated copolymer (A), a gelation inhibitor (B) is added, followed by mixing, or a gelation inhibitor (B), a curing agent (C) and as the case requires, various additives (D) are added, followed by mixing, and the solution or dispersion is supplied to a thin-film vacuum evaporator to remove the solvent.

Abstract:
A resistor composition containing no boride powder is obtained by mechanical grinding of at least one of silicon, silicon monoxide and higher oxidation state precursor of silicon monoxide; and a borosilicate glass containing at least one of zirconium oxide, vanadium pentoxide, chromium oxide, tungsten trioxide, molybdenum trioxide, manganese oxide, titanium oxide, niobium pentoxide and tantalum pentoxide, which are capable of being reduced with silicon, silicon monoxide or higher oxidation state precursor of silicon monoxide. In a sintering step in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, boron oxide and at least one another oxide contained in the borosilicate glass are reduced by silicon, silicon monoxide, higher oxidation state precursor of silicon monoxide or silicide, and metal elements of the oxides contained in the glass combine with each other, so that fine particles of boride are precipitated around glass particles to form a graze resistor.
Abstract:
A parallel translation information generation device includes a bilingual dictionary storage portion in which are stored three or more types of bilingual dictionaries that link all two-language combinations of a first language, a second language, and a third language; a trilingual parallel translation information generation portion that generates trilingual parallel translation information that is a set of a word in the first language, a word in the second language, and a word in the third language having a relationship such that all sets of words in two languages among the first-language word, the second-language word, and the third-language word are linked by the bilingual dictionaries, and a trilingual parallel translation information output portion that outputs trilingual parallel translation information.
Abstract:
A fluororesin powder coating composition having high light resistance and being excellent in blocking resistance and smoothness of the coating film when coated, and a fluororesin powder to be used for a powder coating material, are presented.The fluororesin powder coating composition is made by using as the main material resin a composite fluorinated copolymer powder having a core/shell structure wherein core particles are made of a fluorinated copolymer and their surfaces are covered by e.g. a (meth)acrylate resin having a glass transition temperature higher than that of the core particles. The core/shell structure is formed by seed polymerization wherein fluorinated polymer particles are used as seeds.
