In a pyroelectric infrared detector, there is provided a member having a slit positioned in front of an array of pyroelectric elements, which interrupts an infrared image which is incident on the pyroelectric element array, and respective pyroelectric elements forming a row of the pyroelectric element array are wired so that they are connected in series electrically and adjacent pyroelectric element generate counter-electromotive forces. An infrared image irradiated on respective pyroelectric elements is scanned successively by the movement of the slit member along a row of the pyroelectric element array, thus obtaining information relating to an infrared intensity distribution from a heat source which emits IR rays which are being irradiated onto respective pyroelectric elements, from time series signals produced at both ends of the pyroelectric element array.
摘要:
A process is disclosed in which an amino acid-producing microorganism having an ability to assimilate lactic acid is aerobically cultivated in the presence of at least one lactic acid microorganism in an aqueous nutrient medium containing at least one carbohydrate which is assimilable by the lactic acid microorganism but nonassimilable or weakly assimilable by the amino acid-producing microorganism as the main carbon source and an accumulated amino acid is recovered from the culture broth. An industrially advantageous production of an amino acid has become feasible by utilizing inexpensive carbon sources or those organic substances in agricultural or livestock wastes that have heretofore not been effectively utilized.

A vibration power generating device includes a first substrate and a second substrate, a first electrode formed on the first substrate, a fixed structural body, elastic structural bodies which connect the first substrate and the fixed structural body with each other, and a second electrode formed on the second substrate. Since the overlapping area of the electrodes is increased by arranging rectangular or square conductor parts of the first electrode and rectangular or square conductor parts of the second electrode in a checkerboard pattern, a generation region where power is generated by vibration is increased.

A digital camera comprises a CCD for subjecting subject light flux incident from a photographing lens to photoelectric conversion and outputting subject image signals, a movable mirror section, arranged in the imaging light path of the CCD, for reflecting some of the subject light flux and transmitting the remainder, a range finder/photosensor for receiving subject light flux reflected by the movable mirror member and carrying out ranging integration, and an optical system drive mechanism for carrying out focal point adjustment of the photographing lens based on output of the range finder/photosensor. In a sequential shooting mode for sequentially acquiring images using the CCD, during the imaging operation by the CCD ranging integration by the range finder/photosensor 217 is carried out using subject light flux that has been reflected by the movable mirror member.
