摘要:
An image capture device according to the present invention includes an imaging lens 3, a light-transmitting section 2 with two polarizers, and a solid-state image sensor 1 that has multiple pixels and their associated polarization filters. A first polarization filter 50a is arranged to face a first group of pixels W1 and a second polarization filter 50b is arranged to face a second group of pixels W2. The respective transmission axes of the polarizing areas P(1) and P(2) of the light-transmitting section 2 form an angle θ between themselves. Also, the transmission axis of the first polarization filter 50a defines an angle α with respect to that of the polarizing area P(1). And the transmission axis of the second polarization filter 50b defines an angle β with respect to that of the polarizing area P(2). With such an arrangement adopted, the image capture device of the present invention can obtain images with parallax efficiently.

The solid state image sensor of this invention includes multiple units, each of which includes first and second photosensitive cells 2a, 2b and a dispersive element 1a facing the first cell 2a. The element 1a passes a part of incoming light with a first color component to the second cell 2b. The first cell 2a receives a smaller quantity of light with the first color component than that of the light with the first color component incident on the dispersive element. The second cell 2b receives a greater quantity of light with the first color component than that of the light with the first color component incident on the dispersive element. The quantity of that part of the incoming light with the first color component is calculated based on the difference between photoelectrically converted signals supplied from the first and second cells 2a and 2b and information representing the ratio of the quantity of the light with the first color component received by the second cell to that of the part of the incoming light with the first color component.

A portable electronic device for receiving an incoming call from an external network, includes an incoming call indication unit configured to indicate the incoming call, an illuminance measurement unit configured to measure illuminance of a peripherally of the portable electronic device, an acceleration detection unit configured to detect an acceleration of the portable electronic device, and a status determination unit configured to determine a status of the portable electronic device in accordance with the acceleration detected by the acceleration detection unit and the illuminance measured by the illuminance measurement unit. When the status determination unit determines that the acceleration detected by the acceleration detection unit is greater than a threshold value and a change in the illuminance measured by the illuminance measurement unit is greater than a predetermined value, the status determination unit controls the incoming call indication unit to change an output indicating the incoming call.

摘要:
A method of manufacturing an image forming apparatus having a plurality of electron-emitting members, with row direction wires and column direction wires, in a matrix, and a dielectric layer between the row and column wires. A resist precursor layer is formed by imparting and drying a first photosensitive paste. A second precursor layer is formed by imparting a second photosensitive paste onto the first precursor layer, and by drying the second paste. A precursor pattern is formed by exposing a layered product of the first layer and the second layer through a mask. The exposed layered product is developed, and the dielectric layer is formed by baking the precursor pattern. A shrinkage ratio of the second layer after the baking to the second layer before the baking is larger than a shrinkage ratio of the first layer after the baking to the first layer before the baking.
