A disclosed method for setting multiple tones in a halftone process upon recording an image using ink includes the steps of: dividing the image into plural dot areas; and setting the multiple tones such that at least one dot area to which the ink is not attached is present between dot areas to which the ink is attached.

An imaging method is disclosed that is implemented in an image forming apparatus for forming a tone pattern on a recording medium by forming an arrangement of dots on the recording medium. The arrangement of dots is formed on the recording medium by jetting a recording liquid from a recording head while moving the recording head in a main scanning direction a plurality of times and intermittently conveying the recording medium in a sub-scanning direction that perpendicularly intersects the main scanning direction. The imaging method involves forming the arrangement of dots such that dots belonging to a first group that are consecutively aligned in a base tone direction and dots belonging to a second group that are consecutively aligned in the sub scanning direction are respectively formed in non-consecutive order on the recording medium.

A calibration method calibrates a stereo camera. The calibration method includes: measuring a relative position between the stereo camera and an object that is placed so as to fall within an image capturing area of the stereo camera; acquiring a captured image that is captured by the stereo camera and includes the object; and determining a calibration parameter for calibrating the stereo camera based on the relative position and the captured image.

An image forming apparatus enables the output of a high-quality image even when an expendable supply, such as ink, recording head, or recording sheet other than a specific expendable supply, such as one designated by a manufacturer, is used. The image forming apparatus includes a carriage for moving a recording head having plural recording nozzles in a horizontal scan direction. The recording head discharges ink onto a recording medium. A detection unit detects whether one or more expendable supplies required for image formation is a specific expendable supply. Upon detection of a non-specific expendable supply, a notifying unit notifies an operator and suggests that the image forming method be changed.

A display device which can ensure a sufficient adhesive strength on an adhering surface between each of a pair of substrates of a liquid crystal display panel and a sealing material is provided. A display device includes: a first substrate on which a predetermined integrated circuit is formed; a second substrate which is arranged on one surface of the first substrate in an overlapping manner; and an adhesive material which is arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate and has an annular planar shape as viewed from the surface of the first substrate, the adhesive material being provided for adhering the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein an outer periphery of the adhesive material as viewed from the surface of the first substrate includes a zone which is constituted of a plurality of first portions passing substantially the same position as an outer periphery of the surface of the first substrate and a plurality of second portions each of which is connected with the two neighboring first portions and has a center portion thereof in a peripheral direction retracted toward an inner peripheral side of the adhesive material as viewed from the surface of the first substrate.

The generation of bubbles in a liquid crystal material of a liquid crystal display panel and the generation of color irregularities when the liquid crystal display panel is pushed can be reduced. In a display device having a liquid crystal display panel in which a liquid crystal material is filled between a first substrate and a second substrate, the second substrate forms, on a surface of an insulation substrate which faces the first substrate, first columnar members, second columnar members and third columnar members which differ from each other in a distance from the surface of the insulation substrate to a top portion of each columnar member. Assuming the distance of the first columnar member as L1, the distance of the second columnar member as L2 and the distance of the third columnar member as L3, a relationship among the distances L1, L3, L2 satisfies L1>L3>L2, and assuming the number of the first columnar members arranged on the surface of the insulation substrate as N1, the number of the second columnar members arranged on the surface of the insulation substrate as N2 and the number of the third columnar members arranged on the surface of the insulation substrate as N3, a relationship among the numbers N1, N2, N3 satisfies N2>N1>N3.

A driving mechanism configured to turn a plate member with respect to a frame member around a predetermined turning axis includes a pair of supporting members supporting the plate member, a pair of actuators provided on both sides with respect to the turning axis and on the same surface side of the plate member. Each of the actuators includes a fixed electrode unit fixed to the frame member and a movable electrode unit fixed to the plate member. The fixed electrode unit includes a substrate, a pair of fixed comb electrodes provided on both surface sides of the substrate. The movable electrode unit includes a pair of movable comb electrodes, each of which engages with the corresponding fixed comb electrode with a gap therebetween. Both pairs of the fixed comb electrode and the corresponding movable comb electrode are configured such that a voltage can be applied therebetween independently.

There is provided a micromirror device, which is provided with a mirror layer including a mirror surface which is supported to be rotatable around a first axis passing through a center of the mirror surface, and an upper substrate having transparency including a first upper electrode part and a second upper electrode part arranged on its surface facing the mirror layer to face each other via a first upper boundary passing through a center of the surface and parallel to the first axis, and a lower substrate including a first lower electrode part and a second lower electrode part arranged on its surface facing the mirror layer to face each other via a first lower boundary passing through a center of the surface and parallel to the first axis. The upper substrate is stacked on one side of the mirror layer while securing a first space between the center of the mirror surface and the first and second upper electrode parts, while the lower substrate is stacked on the other side of the mirror layer while securing a second space between the center of the mirror surface and the first and second lower electrode parts. The mirror surface is rotated around the first axis by applying voltage to a pair of the electrodes placed diagonally with respect to the first axis.
