    Abstract: An electronic timepiece includes a timer that clocks a current time, a receiver that receives radio waves, a switch that receives an operation from a user, and a processor. The processor acquires, in accordance with the operation received by the switch, a determination result indicating whether the radio waves are receivable by the receiver, and selects and executes one of a first processing and at least one second processing that differs from the first processing. The first processing is processing to correct the current time clocked by the timer on the basis of the radio waves received by the receiver. The processor does not select the first processing when the determination results indicate that the radio waves are not receivable by the receiver.

    Abstract: In a projection apparatus, the synchronization signal generation unit is configured to output synchronization signals for controlling timing of switching a color of light output from the light source unit, the synchronization signals including a synchronization signal used for turning off one of the first and second light-emitting elements in synchronization with the detection signal, and a synchronization signal used for turning on the other light-emitting element at a next period. The control unit is configured to set an interval during which power supplied to the first and second light-emitting elements of the light source unit is stopped at all periods, based on the synchronization signals.

    Abstract: A processor randomly selects a page image group corresponding to a predetermined number of pages, such as five pages, from scan images of all the pages of a book, and clips a predetermined area (evaluation area) from each of the selected page images. Subsequently, the processor performs, on each clipped image, color correction and compression at a compression rate in accordance with an image quality specified via a user interface, and derives the data volume of each clipped image subjected to the processing. In addition, based on the data volumes of the clipped images subjected to the processing, the processor derives estimated one page data volumes. Then, by using the estimated one page data volumes, the processor derives an estimated data volume of a digital book corresponding to the total pages of the book.
