The present invention provides a photochromic compound that is colored when irradiated with visible light and quickly faded when set in a dark place. The photochromic compound according to the present invention is expressed by the following general formula (I): where each of A1, A2 and A3 is a five-member rings forming a 6π-electron system, the three rings being identical, partially identical or totally different from each other, and each ring may have a substituent; B1 and B2 are functional groups, each having an atomic number of five or larger, including a ring compound, and bonded to the 2-carbon of each of A2 and A3, respectively; and R1, R2 and R3 are substituents identical to or different from each other. This compound is highly colorable and durable even when it is dispersed into plastic macromolecular materials. Therefore, it is suitable as a dye material for sunglasses or similar products.

Exemplary embodiments of the invention provide a micromechanical electrostatic resonator which designs high frequency, increases a ratio of output voltage to input voltage, and designs low drive voltage or reduced power consumption. A micromechanical electrostatic resonator of exemplary embodiments includes a plate-shaped vibration body, a pair of electrodes arranged oppositely to each other at both sides of the vibration body with a gap from an outer circumferential portion of the vibration body, a feeding device to apply in-phase alternating-current power to the pair of electrodes, and a detecting device to obtain an output corresponding to a change in capacitance between the vibration body and the electrodes. The planar shape of the vibration body takes a shape having a curved outline which comprises a neck portion.

A voice recognition device used as a peripheral device for a game machine including a voice input device, a voice recognition section for recognizing the player's voice by comparing the voice signal output from the voice input device with data from previously defined voice recognition dictionaries and generating control signals relating to the game on the basis of the recognition result. The voice recognition section includes a non-specific speaker voice recognition dictionary which is previously defined for unspecified speakers, and a specific speaker voice recognition dictionary which is defined by the player.

A thin plate-shaped substrate 21 comprised of a monocrystal is provided with a piezoelectric element 24, and both ends of a movable piece 20 whose one surface is provided with a movable contact 25 are fixed and supported to a base 11. Then, by curving the movable piece 20 via the piezoelectric element 24, the movable contact 25 is brought in and out of contact with a pair of fixed contacts 38 and 39 that face the movable contact. With this arrangement, a subminiature micro-relay having a mechanical contact mechanism that has a small resistance in turning on the contact and the desired vibration resistance, frequency characteristic and insulating property can be obtained.

The present invention provides an ophthalmic composition for soft contact lenses (SCL), which contains a terpenoid as an active ingredient, an ophthalmic composition for SCL, which contains polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester, a method of enhancing the wettability of soft contact lenses, which comprises bringing terpenoid into contact with SCL and a method of inhibiting adsorption of terpenoid onto SCL, which comprises adding polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester to an ophthalmic composition containing a terpenoid. The ophthalmic composition containing a terpenoid improves, for example, the wettability of SCL, thereby to inhibit decrease in the water content of SCL. As a result, it can inhibit a dry feeling and an uncomfortable feeling during wearing SCL and is useful for enhancing the wettability of SCL. Further, addition of polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester leads to the inhibition of adsorption of terpenoid onto SCL.
