摘要:
When detecting a rotational position of a seconds hand, it is determined whether data stored in a register in correspondence with a supply state of a drive current previously supplied to a coil of a stepping motor is “0”. When the data is “0”, the rotational position of the seconds hand is optically detected. When the data is “1”, the seconds hand is rotated one step, and then, the rotational position of the seconds hand is optically detected. Even though the seconds hand is shifted one second, the position detection is executed every two steps.

A hand position detecting device stops optical detection of the respective rotational positions of seconds, center and hour hands when such detection is impossible. When it is determined that the respective positions of the hands have not been detected successively a predetermined number of times, the detection of the hand positions is stopped until a predetermined time, for example 5 minutes before 11 o'clock or 55 minutes past 10 o'clock. This prevents unnecessary repetition of detection of the hand positions and hence useless consumption of battery energy which would otherwise occur.

A solar panel determines whether or not a wristwatch is in darkness. When the darkness has continued for a predetermined time period, e.g., for 61-70 minutes, it is determined that the wristwatch is not in use and set in a sleep state. Out of seconds, center and hour hands, at least the seconds hand is rotated to a reference position (00-second position) and stopped, and positions of the center and hour hands are detected. Therefore, power consumption during can be reduced when the wristwatch is not in use.

An information recording method for recording content information in a recording medium having at least re-readable area, comprising converting, based on a first conversion rule φ1, first information including a first component for obtaining content control information, converting, based on a second conversion rule φ2, second information including a second component for obtaining the first information, and writing the converted first information and the converted second information into the re-recordable area of the recording medium.

A burst error-correcting capability is largely improved. At least the even-number row and at least the odd-number row of the data block which is a set of data sectors are separated. An outer parity is created for each column and an inner parity is created for each row. Then, the outer parity is scattered with respect to each of the sectors of the data block to be interleaved.

A basic data structure in a lead-in area is made coincident with each other in all of a read only type, write once type, and a rewritable type. The lead-in area is divided into a system lead-in area and a data lead-in area. A track pit and a pit pitch of pits in the system lead-in area are made longer than those in the data lead-in area. In the system lead-in area, a reproduction signal from a bit is detected in accordance with a Level Slice technique, and, in the data lead-in area and data area, a signal is detected in accordance with a PRML technique. In this manner, in any of the read only type, write once type, and rewritable type, there can be provided an information recording medium and an information reproducing apparatus or information recording and reproducing apparatus therefor, capable of a stable reproduction signal from a lead-in area of the write once type recording medium while maintaining format compatibility.
