    摘要: Force detection devices may have high detection precision and may prevent current leakage through a strain gage 126 to the outside. For example, a force detection block 120 may include a semiconductor substrate 122, a first insulating layer 124 and a semiconductor layer 126 (strain gage). The strain gage 126 preferably includes a site where resistance changes in accordance with the stress acting thereon. The strain gage 126 preferably constitutes at least a portion of a ridge 130 projects from the surface of the force detection block 120. A force transmission block 138 may be attached to a top surface of the ridge 130. The width of the first insulating layer 124 is preferably greater than the width of the semiconductor layer 126.

    摘要: An alerting illumination device, which includes a detecting component, a danger degree estimating component, a danger assuming component, an illuminating component and a controlling component, is provided. The danger degree estimating component estimates a degree of danger, with respect to a subject vehicle, of the person detected by the detecting component. The danger assuming component, on the basis of the estimated degree of danger, assumes whether or not the person detected by the detecting component is a danger with respect to the subject vehicle. The illuminating component illuminates light. The controlling component, in a case in which the danger assuming component assumes that the person is a danger, controls the illuminating component such that light, which shows a direction of the person who is assumed to be a danger and a distance to the person, is illuminated onto a road surface.

    摘要: A detector has first and second excitation beams extending along X-axis and Y-axis directions. These beams are fixed to a substrate via an intersecting portion. Mass portions are disposed at free ends of the beams. Sensing electrodes are disposed at the central portions of the mass portions to face the mass portions. By electrostatic force generated between the excitation electrodes and the mass portions, two mass portions vibrate in the Y-axis direction, while the remaining two mass portions vibrate in the X-axis direction. When an angular velocity .OMEGA..sub.x acts about the X axis, Z-axis Coriolis forces F.sub.1a and F.sub.1b act on the mass portions that are vibrating in the Y-axis direction. When an angular velocity .OMEGA..sub.y acts about the Y axis, Z-axis Coriolis forces F.sub.2a and F.sub.2b act on the mass portions that are vibrating in the X-axis direction. These vibrations are detected by the sensing electrodes in order to detect the angular velocities .OMEGA..sub.x and .OMEGA..sub.y.

    摘要: A resonance type angular velocity sensor is provided with a mass displacement supporting beam (20, 21, 22, 23) for supporting a vibration in a detecting direction due to a Coriolis force of a mass portion (1) and a mass excitation supporting beam for supporting a mass displacement supporting base portion (24, 25) in such a manner as to allow the mass portion (1) to vibrate away from the beam in an excitation direction. When the mass displacement supporting base portion (24) is excited in the excitation direction by an opposing comb exciting electrode (51), the mass portion (1) vibrates. A projecting electrode (31) is provided in a side surface of the Coriolis force detecting direction of the mass portion (1) and capacity detecting electrodes (30, 32) are disposed in such a manner as to oppose this. When the Coriolis force acts on the mass portion (1) vibrating in the excitation direction, the mass portion (1) vibrates also in the detecting direction so that the capacity change is detected by the capacity detecting electrodes (30, 32). In such a case, it is possible to provide a mechanism for applying a stress to the beam members (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17) so as to adjust the exciting frequency.

    摘要: A capacitive device includes a substrate, a movable electrode, and a fixed electrode. The movable electrode is located above a surface of the substrate and is movable with respect to the substrate along directions that are substantially orthogonal to the surface. The fixed electrode is stationary with respect to the substrate. When the movable electrode is displaced in a first direction that is substantially orthogonal to the surface, the total sum of area-distance quotients in the overlap between the electrodes remains substantially unchanged or decreases to provide a first reduction rate that is substantially zero or more. On the other hand, when the movable electrode is displaced in a second direction that is substantially opposite to the first direction, the total sum of area-distance quotients remains substantially unchanged or decreases to provide a second reduction rate that is substantially zero or more. The reduction rates are different from each other.
