According to an optical head device access mechanism, drive coils, which provide propulsive force for moving an objective lens, and position sensors, which detect the position of the slide base, are arranged at a position where all driving force and frictional force corresponding to the driving force can be surely detected. The present position of the slide base corresponding to a level of a drive current supplied to the drive coils and its moving speed are converted to a compensation driving current for generating driving force corresponding to driving force lost by frictional force by a position/speed controlling circuit.

An image processing apparatus which may include a grayscale modulator forming a ΔΣ modulator. The modulator may include an adder that adds the pixel value of an image and an output of a feedback arithmetic unit, a quantizing unit that quantizes an output of the adder and outputs a quantized value including a quantization error as the result of ΔΣ modulation, a subtractor that calculates the quantization error, and the feedback arithmetic unit that filters the quantization error and outputs the filtering result to the adder. The filter coefficient of filtering by the feedback arithmetic unit may be determined such that the amplitude characteristics of noise shaping by the ΔΣ modulator in a frequency band that is equal to or more than an intermediate frequency band are the inverse characteristics of the spatial frequency characteristics of the human eye.

The invention relates to an information-processing apparatus, an information-processing method, a memory card and a program storage medium. A memory card has VSS pins connected to the ground, a BS (Bus State) pin for receiving a bus-state signal, VCC pins for receiving a voltage of a power supply, an interrupt pin for outputting interrupt data, a clock pin for receiving a clock signal and reserved pins conforming to a USB standards. When the memory card is inserted into a personal computer, the reserved pins are connected to a USB-host-controller IC employed in the personal computer so that serial data conforming to the USB standards can be exchanged between the memory card and the personal computer. With this configuration, a desired function can be added to the memory card.

摘要:
An electronic apparatus capable of displaying linked pages in turn by an easy operation for users is provided. In a element in an SMIL document, the attribute ??dur=t is added to URI description for specifying a media element. The resulting notation implies that a file name placed before ?? indicates a designated page and a link destination of the designated page is displayed. A numerical value following dur= indicates the duration for which a given link contained in the designated page can be activated. An SMIL player interprets an SMIL document having such a description, so as to allow auto-linking to the link destinations of the designated page with the defined link intervals.
摘要:
A remote input unit such as OCR sends a batch of data of an input character string as a remote control signal, a set-top box (STB) receives the signal and decodes it to the data of the original character string. After STB stores the data of the character string, it instructs a television set to display the data. STB accesses to a terminal corresponding to URL of the character string in the Internet via a telephone line.

A first objective lens and a second objective lens are fixedly mounted on a lens holder. The lens holder has four magnetic members embedded in a side thereof about an axis of rotation. The magnetic members are associated with coils respectively. The lens holder is rotatable supported by a support which has four permanent magnets fixedly mounted on a side thereof corresponding to the four coils. A pair of the magnets located opposite to each other is for the focusing control and the other pair of the magnets located opposite to each other is for the tracking control and the objective lens switching control. When the coils corresponding to the magnets are loaded with a switching signal, they turns the lens holder to switch the objective lenses from one to the other. When the coils corresponding to the magnets are loaded with a tracking drive signal, they perform the tracking control. When the coils corresponding to the magnets are loaded with a focusing drive signal, they perform the focusing control. At the beginning of operation, the objective lens drive apparatus can be initialized by feeding the switching signal to either pair of the coils so that the objective lens is set across a light path.
