There is provided a sound collecting device, including: an orientation direction forming section that forms an orientation direction of a microphone array; and a control section that, when a characteristic in a frequency band of a synthesized signal obtained by synthesizing the acoustic signals corresponds to a characteristic of an acoustic signal corresponding to a sound other than a target sound, controls the orientation direction forming section such that an orientation direction that is a direction that is different than an orientation direction of the microphone array at a present point in time is formed, and, when the characteristic in the frequency band of the synthesized signal does not correspond to a characteristic of an acoustic signal corresponding to a sound other than the target sound, controls the orientation direction forming section such that the orientation direction of the microphone array is maintained.
摘要:
Because conditions for recording identification data of a medium vary in accordance with the structure of different media, such as a single-layer or a multiple-layer structure, stable data recording has been a difficult task. To solve this problem, an incident side of the laser beam for recording identification data on a single-layer optical disk 5 and a double-layer optical disk 6 is the opposite side of a substrate 1 upon which user data is recorded. From this structure, even in a double-layer optical disk 6, the recording is not affected by the recording layer of a second layer 12b and the like. Therefore, in the double-layer optical disk 6, identification data of the medium can be recorded under the same conditions as the single-layer optical disk 5.
摘要:
In a printing system capable of supplying a sheet of a job having undergone print processing by the printing unit of a printing apparatus to a post-processing unit capable of executing at least a specific type of post-processing among a plurality of types of post-processes, when the target job requires the specific type of post-processing, the printing apparatus is inhibited from executing print processing of the job without explicitly determining a sheet necessary for the print processing of the job by a user using a user interface unit. When the target job does not require the specific type of post-processing, the printing apparatus is permitted to execute print processing of the job without explicitly determining a sheet necessary for the print processing of the job by the user using the user interface unit.
