To selectively display a presentation screen exhibiting a mutual content relationship according to a plurality of criteria, so that the user can readily find their desired content. A presentation screen production unit (42) produces display data about a presentation screen on which images representative of any subset of contents among a plurality of contents together with a mutual relationship among the subset are shown, based on any kind of presentation data stored in presentation data storage means, the presentation storage means storing plural kinds of presentation data based on any of which display data about the presentation screen is produced. An instruction determination unit (41) determines whether or not a switching instruction for switching the presentation screen is issued while the presentation screen is displayed, the instruction including a designation of one of the contents represented by the images shown on the presentation screen. The presentation screen production unit (42) produces, when the switching instruction is issued, display data about a presentation screen including an image representative of the content concerning the designation which is made when issuing the switching instruction, based on other kinds of presentation data.

The present invention relates to robot control apparatuses which make a user recognize that speech is accepted. A user's speech input to a microphone 15 is subjected to speech recognition by a speech recognizer 50A. Based on the speech recognition result, an action determining unit 52 determines subsequent actions to be taken by a robot. At the same time, an echo back unit 56 analyzes prosodic information of the user's speech input to the microphone 15 and, based on the prosodic information, generates echo back speech which is prosody-controlled speech. The echo back speech is supplied to a loudspeaker 18 through an output controller 57 and is output from the loudspeaker 18.

There is provided a highly reliable screen input type display device using a touch panel which can facilitate the control of a gap formed between upper and lower substrates and can stabilize the linearity of the resistance value detection of a resistance film, whereby an erroneous detection of coordinated can be eliminated. For this purpose, a tape-like conductive pressure sensitive adhesive member, which is formed by sandwiching a metal foil with conductive pressure sensitive adhesive material, is used at a connection portion between an upper wiring electrode mounted on an upper resistance film formed on an upper substrate and an inter-substrate connection wiring electrode formed on a lower substrate.

An air conditioning system for a vehicle is disclosed. The air conditioning system includes a casing, an evaporator, a heater core at a rear side of the evaporator, and a mixing area for mixing a first air bypassing the heater core with a second air flowing through the heater core. The system further includes a partition plate for guiding the second air to the mixing area after the second air flows through the heater core, a foot passage, a defrosting passage, a vent outlet, and a defrosting outlet. The system still further includes a temperature controlling damper for controlling rates of the first air and the second air after the first and second airs flows through the evaporator so as to attain a predetermined final temperature of the air which is discharged into a passenger compartment of the vehicle. The system further includes a vent damper, a foot damper and a defrosting damper.

A process for preparing an ink-jet system printing plate, wherein in a planographic printing plate precursor having an image receiving layer containing zinc oxide and a binder resin on a water-resistant support, the surface of the image receiving layer has a water-contact angle of 50° or more, and image formation is carried out according to a hot melt type ink-jet system by heat melting an ink composition that is solid at ordinary temperature and spraying the droplets of the ink composition in a heat melt state from a nozzle onto the image receiving layer, and a nonimage area of the image receiving layer is then subjected to a desensitizing treatment by a chemical reaction to prepare a planographic printing plate.
摘要:
An on-press recording type lithographic printing method involving an ink jet process which comprises ejecting an oil-based ink onto a printing plate material mounted on the plate cylinder of a press utilizing an electrostatic field according to signals of image data, whereby an image is directly formed on the surface of said printing plate precursor, thereby preparing a printing plate which is then used as it is to effect lithographic printing, characterized in that when any abnormality occurs, the formation of image is suspended and/or the cause of abnormality is removed.
摘要:
A tensioner comprises shaft members that mate with each other by way of thread portions. A first shaft member is rotatable with respect to a casing and is restrained from moving in its axial direction. A second shaft member, which is restrained from rotating with respect to the casing, is movable in its axial direction. A torsion spring applies torque in a first direction to the first shaft member. A torque switching member, which can switch frictional torque in association with the rotation of the first shaft member, is provided between the first shaft member and the casing.

An oil-based ink for a printing plate by an ink jet process comprising spraying an oil-based ink comprising at least resin particles dispersed in a nonaqueous carrier liquid having an electric resistance of 109 &OHgr;cm or more and a dielectric constant of 3.5 or less on a water-resistant support having a lithographically printable hydrophilic surface to dropwise from a nozzle form an image, wherein the resin particles dispersed are polymer particles obtained by polymerization granulation of a solution comprising (i), (ii) and (iii): (i) at least one monofunctional monomer (A) which is soluble in a nonaqueous solvent which is at least miscible with the nonaqueous carrier liquid and becomes insoluble therein by polymerization; (ii) (ii-a) at least one monomer (B) which is copolymerizable with the monomer (A), or (ii-b) at least one monofunctional macromonomer (MA) having a weight average molecular weight of 2×104 or less in which a polymerizable double bond group is combined with only one end of a main chain of a polymer comprising a repeating unit corresponding to a monomer; and (iii) at least one resin for dispersion stabilization (P) which is a polymer comprising a repeating unit and is soluble in the nonaqueous solvent, the polymer being crosslinked at a part of its main chain thereof, and a method for preparing a printing plate by an ink jet process using the ink.
摘要:
A speech recognition apparatus and method for use in a car navigation system performs speech processing for recognizing speech or spoken words referring to a specified region. An input audio signal or vocalized speech undergoes speech processing to determine and recognize the region specified in the speech. Data corresponding to the specified region is converted to coordinate position data for the region, and a map of the vicinity of the converted coordinate position data is displayed. When a new audio signal is input during speech recognition processing of a previously-input audio signal, the processing of the previously-input audio signal is interrupted and the new audio signal undergoes speech recognition processing. Accordingly, a high-efficiency operation of the car navigation system may be performed without interfering with the driving of the car. The speech recognition and apparatus also determines whether an input audio signal has been re-input within a predetermined amount of time from when the audio signal was previously input.
