There are provided a data recording medium, a reading device for reading the data recording medium, a recording device for reading the data recording medium and recording data to other media, and methods thereof able to prevent forgery without comparing visible information and data stored in a built-in electronic circuit chip. The reading device is for reading a data recording medium including a sheet portion visibly printed with an image and a data storage unit recorded with control data. The reading device comprises a first reading unit adapted to optically read the image on the sheet portion, a second reading unit adapted to read the control data including read permission data indicating whether reading of the image is permitted, a determination unit adapted to determine whether reading of the image by the first reading unit is permitted based on the read permission data obtained by the second reading unit, and a controller adapted to control the first reading unit based on the determination by the determination unit.

An image detecting method comprises the steps of: a) searching for a pattern satisfying a predetermined commencement requirement by scanning an input image; b) using the pattern as a starting point, with referring to a dictionary storing therein distances between the center line and an edge of a detection target semicircle, determining for each of a predetermined number of main scan lines along a sub-scan direction whether or not a predetermined edge pattern occurs within a respective range of the distance of the dictionary; and c) determining a detection of the semicircle when the number of error lines on which the predetermined edge pattern does not occur within the respective range of the distance of the dictionary is less than a predetermined threshold.

A display device for use in compact portable devices is configured for assigning gray levels according to the pixel area ratio and, further includes a digital-to-analog (D-A) conversion circuit for converting digital data to gray-level voltage or analog signals. This configuration reduces the size of the circuit for D-A conversion, thus reducing the space for the driving circuit when assigning gray levels according to the pixel area ratio. The combination of the gray-level voltage output from the driving circuit and the gray-level assignment according to the pixel area ratio reduces the scale of the circuit.
