摘要:
A medium writing apparatus obtains information to be written onto a recording medium, converts the information into a suitable writable format, and then writes the converted information onto the recording medium. An ID obtaining section obtains a medium ID from the recording medium, or through an input by the user. The medium ID and information indicating the place of the written information are sent to a server, and then stored as index information correlating them with each other. When the information written onto the recording medium is to be used at a later timing, the medium ID is identified, and the index information is obtained from the server. Therefore, the original information can be obtained so as to be easily reprocessed-or reused.
摘要:
The present invention provides a display control device which easily recognize the number of connected display media and which always display an optimum image on the respective display media even if an arbitrary display medium is attached or detached. A writing device constituting an electronic book includes a connector to which electronic papers are detachably connected. The number of connected sheets of electronic paper is recognized, and is output to a host computer. In the host computer, display data is output on the basis of the number of electronic papers, and the display data is written in the electronic papers by a write control unit. When a change of connections of the electronic papers is detected by the detection unit, a part of images displayed on the electronic papers is rewritten depending on the detected connection state.
摘要:
A light modulation medium comprises a light modulation element having a pair of substrates and plural light modulation layers arranged between the substrates to form a multilayer structure and made of cholesteric liquid crystal adapted to change the liquid crystal orientation in response to application of a predetermined electric field, in which the ratio of the threshold electric field at which the liquid crystal orientation is moved from a planar state to a focal conic state of a first light modulation layer of the light modulation element to that of a second light modulation layer is not less than 0.3 and the ratio of the dielectric constant in a planar state of liquid crystal orientation of the first light modulation layer to that of the second light modulation layer is not less than 4.

An optical address type spatial light modulator has a plurality of optical address type light modulation layers stacked on each other, each having a liquid crystal layer for reflecting visible light in a specific wavelength band or a liquid crystal layer for absorbing visible light in a specific wavelength band and coloring and a photoconductive layer for absorbing the visible light in the specific wavelength band and changing the resistance value in response to the light intensity of the visible light absorbed, the liquid crystal layer and the photoconductive layer being stacked on each other betwen electrodes.
摘要:
In a display element in which three or more display layers for displaying mutually different color lights are stacked within one pixel and which controls display states of the plural display layers by applying a voltage from the outside of the plural display layers, eight colorsnullwhite, black, blue, green, red, cyan, magenta, and yellownullcan be displayed within one pixel. Display layers having cholesteric liquid crystals selectively reflecting blue, green, and red lights are stacked between a pair of substrates, and a light absorption layer is formed on the back of the substrate of a non-display side. Threshold voltages of orientation change of the display layers are mutually changed, and a threshold voltage Vpf90(A) of change from a planer state to a focal conic state of the display layer having the highest threshold voltage is made higher than a threshold voltage Vfh90(C) of change from a focal conic state to a homeotropic state of the display layer having the lowest threshold voltage.
