20100141800 | IMAGING APPARATUS AND ZOOM CONTROL METHOD - An imaging apparatus calculates a depth of field, and when the calculated result is shallower than a set depth of field, the zoom operation at the telescopic side is switched to the electronic zoom. In addition, when face recognition may not be possible, the zoom is switched to the electronic zoom. Furthermore, when face recognition has become impossible, the optical zoom is returned to the wide angle side until faces can be recognized. When the number of faces that can be recognized has decreased, the optical zoom is returned to the wide angle side until the number of faces that can be recognized is restored. In addition, when subsequently carrying out zooming at the telescopic side, the zooming switches to the electronic zoom. | 06-10-2010 |

RNA molecules are sequenced while being bound to the solid support in one or more sequencing reactions, and sequences of individual RNA molecules can be forwarded to computational analysis for assembling sequence information from individual sequencing reads obtained from the same location on the solid support. Not only unsupervised expression profiling on a genome-wide scale, but also the direct analysis of RNA-RNA interactions become possible as revealed by the analysis of the sequencing information obtained along with genomic information. | 02-11-2010 |

20150276000 | SHOCK ABSORBER - A flow of hydraulic oil induced by sliding movement of a piston in a cylinder is controlled by a damping force generating mechanism to generate a damping force. A flow of hydraulic oil from a casing of the damping force generating mechanism toward a reservoir is regulated by a passage groove formed on the bottom of the casing so as to be directed downward in the reservoir. Thus, the hydraulic oil is efficiently supplied to a base valve from the damping force generating mechanism even when the hydraulic oil is sucked from the reservoir into a cylinder lower chamber through a passage in the base valve during the extension stroke of a piston rod. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a sharp reduction in pressure in the lower part of the reservoir and hence possible to suppress the occurrence of aeration and to obtain stable damping force characteristics. | 10-01-2015 |
