Abstract:
An electronic still camera device has a camera unit capable of recording and reproducing video and audio signals, and an audio adapter detachably attached to the camera unit and which has operation switches, a microphone, a collected sound amount indicator and a circuit capable of compressing and expanding audio signals. To reduce the number of signal lines between the camera unit and the audio adapter, the audio adapter is automatically set in the audio playback mode when the audio adapter has detected that compressed audio signals are being delivered from the camera unit to the audio adapter. The camera unit has a power supply arranged to superpose a D.C. voltage of a high level or a low level to the compressed audio signal. A power supply switch provided in the audio adapter is capable of selectively supplying the source power from the camera unit to the audio adapter in accordance with the level of the D.C. voltage. In order to enable the user to conduct sound collection, sound cancelling and sound recording at any desired timing, the audio adapter has switches capable of generating a sound collection starting instruction, a sound collection stopping instruction and a sound cancelling instruction, and operation is executed in accordance with these instructions. A collected sound amount indicator is provided for indicating the amount of collected sound in terms of the sound collection time.
Abstract:
An image scanner capable of precisely inputting information is disclosed. A light transmission path is formed through a wall portion of a scanner body to enable the operator to visually confirm a reading position on the document from the outside of the scanner body through an opening for reading the document. A read starting position on the document can be confirmed by turning on the light source only without inputting the information to a data processing means according to a signal from a scanner body moving amount detecting means.
Abstract:
A printer unit has a film pack room into which any one of a first instant film pack or a second instant film pack is loaded, an exposure head, and a controller. The second instant film pack is aligned in the film pack room so as to be shifted to the one side.
Abstract:
A reading apparatus includes: a document platen on which a document is placed; a reading portion configured to read a document placed on the document platen; a cover that is openable and closable between a first position at which the document platen is covered and a second position at which the document is uncovered; and a frame member including a first inclination portion and a second inclination portion, configured to constitute at least a part of an outer frame of the document platen, the first inclination portion being adjacent to the document platen and higher with an increasing distance from the document platen, and the second inclination portion being arranged farther away from the document platen than the first inclination portion and higher with an increasing distance from the document platen.
Abstract:
Embodiments provide a video camera configured to capture, compress, and store video image data in a memory of the video camera at a rate of at least about twenty three frames per second. The video image data can be mosaiced image data, and the compressed, mosaiced image data may remain substantially visually lossless upon decompression and demosaicing.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus is provided with USB sockets on front and back sides, and includes a determining unit for determining whether or not a USB device inserted to a front side USB socket 184 is a function enhancement device, and a control unit making, when it is determined by the determining unit that a function enhancement device is inserted to the front side USB socket 184, the USB device unusable and making, when it is determined that a USB device other than the function enhancement device is inserted, the USB device usable. Thus, it is possible to prevent a USB wireless LAN adapter or the like from being used constantly connected to the front side USB socket and thereby to reduce possibility of USB wireless LAN adapter of being damaged or removed.
Abstract:
A print device includes a housing, a lid body, an input device, and a mounting portion. An opening is formed in an upper portion of the housing. The lid body opens and closes the opening of the housing by a second end portion side of the lid body pivoting around a predetermined rotation axis provided at a first end portion of the lid body. The mounting portion is provided on an upper portion of the lid body when the opening is closed. The input device can be attached to and detached from the mounting portion along a predetermined attachment/detachment direction with respect to the lid body. The attachment/detachment direction is orthogonal to an extending direction of a tangent line. The tangent line is tangential to a circumferential direction of the rotation axis at a position of the second end portion of the lid body.

Abstract:
According to an embodiment, provided is an image forming apparatus available for use with a memory card, the memory card including a housing that includes a built-in memory device and a terminal exposed from the housing. The image forming apparatus includes: a memory-card storing section that includes a pit for storing the memory card therein, the memory-card storing section being provided in a main body of the image forming apparatus as an apparatus main body; and an outer cover detachably attached to the apparatus main body to cover the memory-card storing section. At least one portion of the memory-card storing section is configured to be brought into contact with the housing of the memory card when the memory card is stored in the memory-card storing section and is configured to be electrically connected to a ground of the apparatus main body.
