Abstract:
A multi-gradation image such as a face image of a person in which sub-information is to be embedded is subjected to a preprocess by a preprocessing section based on a relationship between certain image data and read image data of a printed matter on which the certain image data is printed, sub-information is embedded into the multi-gradation image subjected to the preprocess by the preprocessing section by use of an digital watermark embedding section in an invisible state to the human eye, and the multi-gradation image having the sub-information embedded therein by the digital watermark embedding section is subjected to a post-process corresponding to the preprocess performed by the preprocessing section by use of a post-processing section.
Abstract:
A servo write method capable of generating and recording correction data, to be used for compensating for repeatable position error caused by write errors of servo patterns, in a short time is presented. In the recording of the servo pattern, correction data for correcting revolution-synchronous components are generated from a position error signal which is obtained from the difference between a target position and a magnetic head position, and the correction data are recorded in servo areas on a disk.
Abstract:
In a shaver having provided on an upper end portion of a main body thereof a head portion comprising a razor having an outer blade and an inner blade, a front cross section of the shaver has a shape narrowed at a substantially center portion in its up and down direction, and a side cross section of the shaver has a substantially S-shape, in order to increase the contact area between the main body and the palm, to improve fit feeling, to make it hard to slip, and to finely adjust the angle of the razor against the skin without moving the wrist.
Abstract:
A remote control system for operating a drive unit 2 and a peripheral unit 3 to be used together with the drive unit by remote control, has a transmitter 1 that generates data repeatedly including a first control information for a specific operation of the drive unit 2 and a second control information for controlling a specific operation of the peripheral unit 3. The drive unit 2 controls its specific operation on the basis of the first control information and the peripheral unit 3 controls its specific operation on the basis of the second control information.
Abstract:
Provided is a nitride semiconductor device with high reliability and high flexibility in design and manufacture of the device. The nitride semiconductor device comprises a seed crystal portion (11) formed on a sapphire substrate (10) and having a mask (12) on one side surface thereof, and a GaN layer (15) grown on the sapphire substrate (10) and the seed crystal portion (11) through epitaxial lateral overgrowth. The GaN layer (15) is grown only from an exposed side surface of the seed crystal portion (11) which is not covered with the mask (12), so the lateral growth of the GaN layer (15) is asymmetrically carried out. Thereby, a meeting portion (32) is formed in the vicinity of a boundary between the seed crystal portion (11) and the mask (12) in a thickness direction of the GaN layer (15). Therefore, as the meeting portion (32) is formed in a position away from the center between the adjacent seed crystal portions (11) in a direction parallel to a surface of the substrate, a width WL of a lateral growth region is larger with respect to a pitch WP of the seed crystal potion (11), compared with conventional configurations.

Abstract:
An electromagnetic spool valve includes a spool valve, an electromagnetic actuator, and a bracket. The spool valve includes a cylindrical sleeve and a spool. The cylindrical sleeve includes an input/output ports for fluid to flow through. The spool is axially slidable in the sleeve. The electromagnetic actuator is fixed to the spool valve for axially driving the spool. The bracket is welded to the electromagnetic actuator. The spool valve is disposed in a fixing member and is fixed thereto by a tightening member tightening the bracket welded to the yoke to the fixing member. Either the bracket or the electromagnetic actuator includes a stopper contact portion for contacting a part of the other to prevent the electromagnetic spool valve from being removed from the sleeve insertion hole.
Abstract:
In a personal authentication medium issuing apparatus, a main image information is input and whether a personal authentication medium on which synthesized image information having sub-information embedded in the main image information is checked or not is determined based on the state of the input main image information. Further, synthesized image information having sub-information embedded in an invisible state in the main image information which is set in a visible state is formed, a personal authentication medium is formed by printing the synthesized image information on a recording medium and the thus formed personal authentication media are sorted into personal authentication media determined to be completely formed and personal authentication media determined to require a checking process.
