摘要:
A communication route guidance system provides exchange of data between an information center and each of a plurality of mobile units such as vehicles. The information center has the latest road data and searches it to prepare recommended route guidance data in response to a request from the mobile unit. The reccommended route guidance data is divided into a plurality of data segments, each usable as an independent guidance instruction in the mobile unit. The mobile unit has stored therein road data similar to the road data in the information center and determines if data communication with the information center is available. In a case where the mobile unit can not communicate with the information center, the mobile unit prepares route guidance based on the road data stored in the mobile unit. It thereby becomes possible to guide the user even in the case that the mobile unit can not communicate with the information center. Even in a case where a communication link is disrupted during transmission of route guidance data to the mobile unit, the mobile unit can effectively prepare whole route guidance data in combination with already-received route guidance data and additionally prepared route guidance data by reference to the road data stored in the mobile unit because the already received route guidance data is structured to be usable independently.

A radar apparatus is provided that can correctly extract the necessary point for a determination related to the safe travel of one's automotive vehicle among objects such as automotive vehicles moving at an angle in front and constructed objects. The radar apparatus of the present invention provides antennas that transmit beams in a plurality of directions and receive the reflected waves from objects as received signals. The objects that generated these reflected waves are detected. In addition, this radar apparatus provides a reflected location detection device that detects the reflected locations that are the generation source of the reflected waves for this plurality of directions, a grouping device that groups each of these detected reflected locations into a group of single or plural reflected locations assuming they belong to the same object, and a device that extracts reflected locations having the shortest distance from the moving body from among these grouped reflected locations to serve as reference points related to the safe travel of this moving body.

In a communications navigation system, data is transmitted and received between a navigation base apparatus provided at a navigation base and each of a plurality of navigation apparatuses provided in moving bodies such as vehicles using communication. A determining section of the navigation base apparatus determines untraveled route portion by comparing user's information stored in a user information storage with information of a recommended route provided by a route search section. The navigation base apparatus extracts necessary route/guidance information for untraveled route portion determined by the determining section from route/guidance data stored in a database, and then transmits the extracted route/guidance data to the navigation apparatus identified by the identification information. The route/guidance information may be transmitted to the navigation apparatus in the form of segmented data. In this way, it becomes possible for the navigation apparatus to extract only the route/guidance information needed by the user from the route/guidance data stored in the database.

Embodiments provide for using two encryption keys to encrypt data instead of only one as is customarily used in the industry. According to various embodiments, a default encryption key is generated and is initially used to encrypt data, while a second encryption key is available for generation by an end user. Embodiments provide that data is encrypted with the default key until the user generates their own key, after this event, all data is encrypted with key generated by the user.

A disposal processing apparatus comprises: a disposal processing section that disposes of a recording medium; an arrival detecting section that detects whether the recording medium has reached the disposal processing section; and a judging section that judges whether the recording medium has been disposed of by the disposal processing section based on a detection result of the arrival detecting section.
摘要:
A battery pack is disclosed. The battery pack includes a battery, an impact sensor, a processor and a memory. The impact sensor is capable of generating an impact signal in response to a detection of an impact on the battery pack. The processor is capable of generating impact information based on the impact signal, and processor continues to count a number of charging times to the battery after the generation of the impact information. The memory is capable of storing the impact information and the number of charging times. The processor can refer to the memory to deliver a control command to a battery charger so that the battery can only be charged up to an allowable charge capacity smaller than a full charge capacity after an occurrence of an impact when the battery pack is attached to the battery charger. The charging to the battery stops when the number of the counted charging times reaches a predetermined number of allowable charging times that is allowed after the generation of the impact information.
摘要:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for reclaiming solid state storage with limited write cycles such as flash memory. Through the use of shared storage for common data patterns, physical space may be conserved or reclaimed in a solid state device. The apparatus may use internal mappings and/or external device drivers to handle the reclamation of unused space. By enabling reclamation of physical space, the disclosed systems, apparatus, and methods may provide more efficient read and write access and improved wear leveling.
摘要:
It is intended to provide a milk drink obtained by starting with a milk protein-containing powder (skim milk powder, etc.) having a seriously worsened flavor which is free from worsening in the flavor after heating and sustains a flavor comparable to a product obtained by starting with fresh milk or fermented milk alone without using such a starting material as described above. An inert gas such as nitrogen gas is bubbled into a conditioned milk liquor containing a milk protein-containing powder (for example, whole milk powder or defatted milk powder) which is obtained by starting with fresh milk or milk so as to lower the dissolved oxygen concentration in the conditioned milk liquor to 8 ppm or below. Next, the conditioned milk liquor is subjected as such to heat sterilization.

A power control method for a magnetic disk unit is disclosed. The method includes identifying a type of a last instruction sent to a magnetic disk unit and, in response to identifying the type, setting a wait time that varies according to the type. In response to the wait time having elapsed after a completion of processing ordered by the last instruction, an idle instruction is sent to the magnetic disk unit for placing the magnetic disk unit in an idle state in which power consumption is reduced.
