A user enters an input for selecting an image-capturing mode. The user then captures the image of a target with a desired zoon factor as a target image. An image-capturing device determines a zoom factor for an image to be captured starting from the target image and then captures an image while zooming out to the determined zoom factor. A process of changing the zoom factor and capturing an image is repeated until the smallest zoom factor among determined zoom factors is used. When image capturing of an image of the smallest zoom factor is completed, metadata is created that includes the respective zoom factors of images and relative position information of the images, and the metadata is stored in a memory unit in relation with the data of the captured images.

When there is a shooting location of another panoramic image in a shooting direction of a panoramic image to be displayed, a marker setting unit associates a marker, indicating the presence of the another panoramic image in the shooting direction, with the panoramic image to be displayed. A mapping processing unit maps the panoramic image to be displayed, which has been associated with markers for the other panoramic images, into a three-dimensional (3D) panoramic space as textures. A 3D image generator generates a 3D panoramic image when the 3D panoramic space is viewed in a specified line of sight, with the shooting location of the panoramic image to be displayed being set as a viewpoint position. An interface receives an instruction from a user concerning the displayed 3D panoramic image.

An articulated bending mechanism is formed by connecting links which rotatably support a plurality of gears including input-side gears and output-side gears by engaging the gears. Each link rotatably supports an odd number of gears by engaging the gears, and an output-end gear rotates in the same direction as an input-end gear. The output-side gear of one link and the input-side gear of an adjacent link are used in common, and the rotating shaft of the common gear provides a degree of freedom provided at a joint of the articulated bending mechanism. Such an articulated bending mechanism can be formed with a small size and at a low cost, and can be used to imitate the way a living being shows its feelings and emotions.

The present invention is intended to efficiently concentrate an electric field and to improve electron emission efficiency in a field emission cathode constituting a flat display device. A field emission cathode constituting a flat display device is constituted to have an electron emission section arranged to face an electron applied surface. At least the electron emission section is formed out of conductive, thin plate-like fine particles. A substance having a work function of 2 to 3 eV is bonded on the surfaces of the thin plate-like fine particles.

The field emission type cathode. (K) is made as the multilayered structure (33) in which the conductive platelike corpuscles 30 are piled, whereby an edge portion of end surface of a field emission type cathode K for emitting electrons is formed sharply and easily.

An jointed tail of a pet robot can be configured simply and driven to curve freely and autonomously by fitting an jointed cylindrical member 25 around outer circumferences of two wire portions 24a and 24b composed of a wire 24 which is folded nearly into a shape of a hair pin, rotatingly driving two driven ends 24d and 24e on a side opposite to a tip 24c of the two wire portions 24a and 24b connected to each other around an X axis and a Y axis with a differential gear mechanism 38, and moving and controlling two driven ends 26d and 26e reversibly in an axial direction at a swing limit position around the X axis, thereby autonomously curving a tip of the wire 24.
