Abstract:
An image processing apparatus executes acquiring, on a first image having a pattern having first areas and second areas that have a different color from the first areas, center position of the pattern where the first areas and the second areas cross, acquiring boundary positions between the first and second area, converting the first image to a second image having its image distortion corrected by using the center position and the boundary positions, acquiring, by scanning on the second image, expectation values which are areas including the point where the first and second areas cross excluding the center position, acquiring a intersection position of the intersection on the second image based on the expectation values, acquiring the center position and the positions on the first image corresponding to the intersection position by inverting the second image to the first image, determining the points corresponding to the acquired positions as features.
Abstract:
An inventive method for coherent interleaved polarization-multiplexing PolMux optical communications with a single IQ modulator includes modulating a light source to generate a 50% return-to-zero RZ signal pulse at a frequency Rs, driving a single IQ modulator with inphase I and quadrature phase Q data at a bit rate of sais Rs to introduce phase modulation on said 50% RZ signal pulse to produce a QPSK pulse signal with all symbols being in a same polarization state without any time overlapping; and polarization modulating said QPSK signal to alternatively convert said QPSK signal into two orthogonal polarizations states enabling an interleaving PolMux signal with a symbol rate of Rs/2.
Abstract:
For a method fabricating a dihedral corner reflector array optical element, a molding die having a reversal shape of the prism bodies is used. Each prism body has a frustum shape having an end plane whose area is smaller than that of the base plane side of the substrate. Each prism body is composed of a rectangular parallelepiped portion including the orthogonal plane sides to be a dihedral corner reflector and a taper portion integrated therewith having sides being non-parallel to the orthogonal plane sides. The method includes clamping the molding die to define a cavity therein; forming the optical element made from molten resin in the cavity; and parting the optical element from the molding die. The molding dies are relatively moved in a parting direction that the molding die leaves the orthogonal plane sides before anything else to part the optical element.

The Ni-based single crystal superalloy has excellent specific creep strength.
Abstract:
An addressee recognizing apparatus recognizes the addressee of matter to be delivered. A database stores a description format including at least a described position, the number of character lines, and the length of each character line in a sender area on the matter to be delivered. When a scanner obtains an image, a plurality of addressee candidate areas are obtained from the image. The apparatus determines whether the description format for each of the extracted candidates matches the description format for the sender area stored in the database. If the description format for the candidate is determined to match the description format for the sender area, the candidate is prohibited from being recognized as the addressee area.
Abstract:
An embedded device communicates with another device via an external proxy server acting for the embedded device to control communication. The embedded device includes a communication device capable of communicating with the proxy server, a storage unit storing a state of communication with the other device, an updating unit, a response unit responding to the task with a result of the updating of the communication state that has been performed in accordance with the control request, and a control instruction unit transmitting, to the proxy server by means of the communication device, an instruction for changing a state of communication with the other device in the proxy server to the communication state stored in the storage.
Abstract:
A reaction control material that is Co, Cr or Ru, or an alloy having main component selected from a group consisting of Co, Cr, Ru is applied to the surface of an Ni-base superalloy before applying aluminum diffusion coating to the Ni-base superalloy. Thereby, it is possible to enhance the oxidation resistance of the Ni-base superalloy, and to control formation of a secondary reaction zone.
