摘要:
An internal combustion engine that is comprised of a combustion chamber formed by a cylinder bore closed at one end by a cylinder head and by a piston reciprocating in the cylinder bore. At least one intake passage serves the combustion chamber through an intake port valved by an intake valve. A throttle valve is provided in the intake passage upstream of the intake port and is movable between an opened, full throttle position and a closed, idle position for controlling the flow through the intake passage into the combustion chamber. At least one exhaust passage serves the combustion chamber through an exhaust port. An exhaust valve controls the flow through the exhaust port. Valve actuating means are provided for operating the intake valve and the exhaust valve between their open and closed positions. The portion of the intake passage between the throttle valve and the intake port (intake passage volume) and the maximum volume of the combustion chamber when the piston is at its bottom dead center position (exhaust gas volume) are set to a predetermined ratio. The described constructions permit a very compact construction that permits the intake passage volume to be kept small to achieve the desired ratio.

A communication terminal displays thumbnails for predetermined-region images in a panoramic image and accepts a selection of a predetermined thumbnail so as to display the predetermined-region image corresponding to the accepted thumbnail. This brings about an effect that a user can easily find a desired panoramic image or a desired predetermined-region image in the panoramic image.

A wavelength conversion unit includes a wavelength conversion member that transmits a part of incident excitation light and converts a part of the excitation light into wavelength-converted light having a wavelength different from a wavelength of the excitation light to emit the wavelength-converted light. The excitation light has an intensity distribution in which an intensity is maximum at the center and decreases as getting apart from the center. A thickness of the wavelength conversion member at a portion into which light at the center of the intensity distribution of the excitation light enters is larger than those at any other portions.

A vehicle handle (20) having handle joining sections (20e, 20f) joining with a door panel of a vehicle in addition to having a non-contact type detection sensor in a handle interior space (s), and performing at least unlocking of a door in accordance with detection information from the detection sensor, comprises an internal water discharging path (G) communicating between the handle interior space (s) and a handle exterior space (S) and capable of discharging water inside the handle interior space (s) to the handle exterior space (S).
摘要:
A natural white balance is achieved in images that are captured while emitting a flash. The white balance of an image is adjusted using a WB adjustment portion and a mixture ratio calculation portion estimating a mixture ratio of an external light component and a flashed light component that are present in an image captured with emitting a flash, from the image obtained that is captured while emitting a flash and an image signal that is obtained without emitting a flash. Further, an external light WB coefficient determination portion determines an WB coefficient for the external light, a flashed light WB coefficient setting portion sets a WB coefficient for the flashed light, and a WB processing portion that continuously performs WB processing on the image captured while emitting a flash by using the mixture ratio as an interpolation ratio.

An electro-optical device includes a substrate having a plurality of film-formation regions configured and arranged to receive a liquid material discharged from a plurality of nozzles of a nozzle row while the substrate and the nozzle row are moved relative to each other in a primary scanning direction. Each of the film-formation regions includes a plurality of landing positions in which the liquid material lands with the landing positions being set by a nozzle interval in a direction of the nozzle row and a discharge interval in the primary scanning direction. At least two or more of the film-formation regions include a portion in which a total number of the landing positions in the at least two or more of the film-formation regions that simultaneously face the nozzles is the same in the primary scanning direction.

The invention achieves a visual processing device that can execute precise contrast adjustment on image signals that have been input and that does not cause discrepancies in the output timing of the image signals that are output. The visual processing device is provided with a gain-type visual processing portion that outputs a first gain signal having predetermined gain characteristics with respect to the input image signal, and a correction portion that corrects the input image signal based on the first gain signal.
