Abstract:
A signal processing apparatus includes an input attribute determination section for determining an input attribute representing at least one of a type of an audio codec, a sampling frequency and a number of channels of an input signal; and an input signal processing section for processing the input signal. The input signal processing section determines whether the input attribute has been changed based on a determination result provided by the input attribute determination section; and when a calculation remainder generated in the input signal processing section by the change in the input attribute, the input signal processing section assigns at least apart of the calculation remainder to processing of the input signal.

Abstract:
An electric power demand adjusting system restrains fluctuation in an incentive for adjusting the demand for electric power or fluctuation in an electric power demand adjustment amount caused by an incentive. The system includes a central apparatus, lower units, and computing machine systems of consumers, which are connected through a communication network. The computing machine system of the central apparatus has a device for predicting a demand, a device for determining the electric power demand adjustment amounts to be sent to the lower units on the basis of the predicted demand and information that includes historical data regarding the electric power demand adjustments of the lower units, and a device for transmitting the determined electric power demand adjustment amounts to the lower units. The arrangement restrains the fluctuation in incentives required for adjusting the demand for electric power.

An acoustic signal reproduction device includes a reproduction speaker and a signal processing section for generating an acoustic signal for causing a listener to recognize a reference speaker. The signal processing section includes a compensation data input section for receiving compensation data from the outside of the acoustic signal reproduction device and a calculation section for calculating the acoustic signal based on the audio signal and the compensation data and outputting the acoustic signal to the reproduction speaker. The compensation data has a value H/C, where H is a transfer function from the reference speaker to a control point located in the vicinity of an ear of the listener, and C is a transfer function from the reproduction speaker to the control point located in the vicinity of the ear of the listener.

A noise control system includes: a control sound generator for generating a control sound; an error detector for detecting an error signal between the control sound and noise; a noise detector for detecting a noise source signal; an adaptive filter for outputting a control signal; and a coefficient updator for updating a coefficient of the adaptive filter. The coefficient updator includes at least a first digital filter, a first coefficient update calculator, a second digital filter, a phase inverter, a third digital filter, and a second coefficient update calculator. Alternatively, the coefficient updator includes at least a first digital filter, a second digital filter, a third digital filter, a coefficient update calculator, a phase inverter, a first adder, and a second adder. In either case, the coefficient updator has a function of suppressing an increase in a coefficient gain of the adaptive filter in a predetermined frequency band.
Abstract:
A video camera having a zoom function and a camera system are provided, wherein a ratio of view fields of the video camera and a photographic camera is calculated based on information about zooming powers of imaging lenses, and an image frame of the photographic cameras is displayed in a variable size at an electronic viewfinder in accordance with the ratio of the view fields and based on a picked-up image of fixed size, or a picked-up image is displayed in a variable size on the basis of the image frame of the photographic camera. View angles of the video camera and the photographic camera are obtained from the information about the zooming powers of the imaging lenses, and zoom adjustment is carried out with the view angles coinciding with each other, or the zooming power of one of the video camera and the photographic camera is adjusted such that the view angles become equal to each other. Accordingly, the view field of the photographic camera can be accurately recognized even if the zooming power is changed.
Abstract:
The reading timing determination unit determines a timing at which identification marks such as print bar codes should be read. The reading unit reads identification marks in accordance with the timing to provide identification mark data in a numerical form. The discrimination unit compares identification mark data with data value of an identification mark to be primarily printed to judge whether or not the identification mark is correctly printed. The signal generation unit produces a notifying signal when it is judged that the identification mark is not correctly printed. In this way, this apparatus tests whether or not identification marks successively printed on a moving body in the form of sheet by the printing machine are correctly printed.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a module used for stacking thin panels that allows for stacking of a plurality of thin panels in the vertical direction efficiently and stably. The module includes a sandwiching support portion, a load transmitting portion, and a positioning portion. The sandwiching support portion sandwiches and supports the thin panel. The load transmitting portion is coupled with the sandwiching support portion, and transmits the weight of the thin panel in the vertical direction. The positioning portion relatively positions thin panels, which are stacked in the vertical direction, in the horizontal direction. The sandwiching support portion includes a lower plate-shaped body and a vertical wall. The lower plate-shaped body is disposed on a lower portion of the module. The vertical wall extends upward from an outer edge of the lower plate-shaped body to form an approximately C-shaped cross-sectional surface in conjunction with the lower plate-shaped body. The load transmitting portion includes a load transmitting surface, which is formed outward from an outer surface of the vertical wall. The positioning portion includes an inner lock portion on an inner edge of the lower plate-shaped body and an outer lock portion on the outer edge of the lower plate-shaped body. The inner lock portion is contactable with an inner edge of an upper portion of the module. The outer lock portion is contactable with an outer edge of the upper portion of the module.
