20110267692 | IMAGE BLUR CORRECTION APPARATUS AND IMAGE PICKUP UNIT HAVING IMAGE BLUR CORRECTION APPARATUS - An image blur correction apparatus according to the present invention includes a base, a movable holding member, a support mechanism that supports the movable holding member to be movable within a plane vertical to an optical axis of a lens, a driving means for driving the movable holding member, a position detecting means, and a returning means for returning the movable holding member to a pause position, wherein the driving means includes coils ( | 11-03-2011 |
20120151546 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - An information processing apparatus of one embodiment has: a plurality of processing units; a control unit to control the processing units; and a switch unit having a network switch including a plurality of communication ports to which the processing units and the control unit are connected. Each processing unit transmits an activation completion notification containing an address, a unit-installed position, and a link state to the control unit at the time of activation. The switch unit creates an address learning table associating port identification information indicating the communication ports, addresses of the processing units connected to the communication ports, and link states between the communication ports and the processing units with one another. The control unit creates a unit positional information table associating the port identification information and the unit-installed position with each other based on the contents of the address learning table and the activation completion notification. | 06-14-2012 |
20130064523 | VIDEO SERVER, VIDEO RECORDING METHOD AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING REBUILDING PROCESS - According to one embodiment, a video server including a recording device configured to encode a received video signal based on a predetermined encoding method into video data; a write controller configured to divide the video data in order to generate a plurality of divided data, generate a redundant data for restoring either of the divided data of the number of setup when the divided data of the number of setup in advance, perform write-in controlling of the plurality of divided data and the plurality of redundant data; a plurality of storage devices configured to record the number of setup of divided data and the redundant data based on the divided data of the number of setup by distributing herein according to the write-in controlling; and a main controller configured to record management information on the video data recorded on each storage device. | 03-14-2013 |
20130238928 | VIDEO SERVER AND REBUILD PROCESSING CONTROL METHOD - A video server has a table generator, a rebuild processor, and a rebuild controller. The table generator generates a management table of content data ID that specifies the content data and the write location of the content data in the storage unit where the content data are recorded. When a problem takes place in at least one of the storage devices, the rebuild processor executes a rebuild process to recover the content data of the troubled storage device. When a rebuild start request is generated by the rebuild processor, the rebuild controller controls the start and stop of the rebuild process by referring to the management table. | 09-12-2013 |
20130334965 | SEMICONDUCTOR LIGHTING APPARATUS - A semiconductor lighting apparatus includes a plurality of semiconductor light emitting devices for outputting light having respective colors, a projector for synthesizing output light of the semiconductor light emitting devices and outputting synthesized light, and a calculating portion. The calculating portion controls a driving current to be supplied to the semiconductor light emitting devices in such a manner that a light quantity detected by optical sensors approximates to a predetermined target light quantity, and calculates a target temperature of the semiconductor light emitting devices to control temperature regulating portions in such a manner that a temperature detected by temperature sensors approximates to the target temperature. | 12-19-2013 |
20140140710 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD - An image forming apparatus receives setting of an object to be adjusted, on an adjustment object selection screen when selecting an adjustment mode. After the object to be adjusted is set, camera(s) photograph(s) the object to be adjusted so that the image forming apparatus obtains photographed data of current object to be adjusted. Next, the apparatus searches photographed data of the object to be adjusted in the ideal state thereof from the database. Name of the object to be adjusted and related information in the photographed data agree with those of the photographed data of current object to be adjusted. The higher ranked related information is preferentially searched and it is determined whether or not pieces of the higher ranked related information thus preferentially searched agree with each other. | 05-22-2014 |
20140249376 | LIGHT SOURCE APPARATUS FOR MEDICAL USE - A medical-use light-source apparatus includes a light source lamp, a connector to which a body cavity endoscope and an ophthalmic observation apparatus can be selectively connected, a determiner which determines whether the body cavity endoscope or the ophthalmic observation apparatus is currently connected to the connector, and a lamp controller which sets a value of a maximum light amount of the illumination light to a first threshold value when the determiner determines that the body cavity endoscope is currently connected to the connector, and sets a value of a maximum light amount of the illumination light to a second threshold value that is smaller than the first threshold value when the determiner determines that the ophthalmic observation apparatus is currently connected to the connector. | 09-04-2014 |
20140307227 | OPHTHALMIC OBSERVATION APPARATUS AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME - An ophthalmic observation apparatus includes an illumination light supplier which supplies illumination light, of substantially parallel light rays, toward an examinee's eye including an eyeground and an anterior chamber angle, an imager which captures an image of the eye which is illuminated by the illumination light, a rotary driver which rotates the illumination light supplier and the imager about a specified center, a cornea curvature measurer which measures a curvature of a cornea of the examinee's eye, and a controller which sets a curvature center of the cornea as the specified center based on the measured curvature of the cornea. The controller drives the rotary driver to rotate the illumination light supplier and the imager about the specified rotational center and controls the imager to capture an image of the eyeground and the anterior chamber angle illuminated by the illumination light. | 10-16-2014 |
