    摘要: An artwork management method executed by one or more computers is provided. The artwork management method includes detecting, by a first computer included in the one or more computers, artwork included in a website, determining, by the first computer, whether or not a purchase transaction indicating purchase of the artwork detected is recorded in a blockchain network, and transmitting, by the first computer, a report indicating discovery of unauthorized use of the artwork, in a case where the first computer determines that the purchase transaction is not recorded. According to one aspect, the artwork management method suppresses illegal use of artwork while maintaining accessibility of the artwork.

    摘要: An active stylus includes at least one electrode, and an integrated circuit coupled to the at least one electrode. The integrated circuit is configured to: operate in a first mode to unilaterally transmit signals to a sensor controller from one of the at least one electrode; determine whether a pen tip of the active stylus is in contact with a sensor panel; responsive to determining that the pen tip is in contact with the sensor panel, transmit a pen pressure value of the pen tip; and responsive to determining that the pen tip is not in contact with the sensor panel, instead of transmitting the pen pressure value, detect an uplink signal transmitted from the sensor panel.

    摘要: A pen state detection circuit is incorporated in electronic equipment having a touch sensor of a capacitive system made of planarly disposed multiple sensor electrodes. The pen state detection circuit is configured to perform acquiring, from the touch sensor, signal distribution indicating a change in capacitance associated with approach of a pen-side electrode included in an electronic pen, and estimating a state of the electronic pen according to an input-output model. In the input-output model features relating to the acquired signal distribution are input and a state quantity of the electronic pen is output. The pen state detection circuit is configured to be capable of setting an input-output model that is different depending on a change in an outer shape of the electronic pen or the electronic equipment.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a stylus includes one or more electrodes included in a tip, and a computer-readable non-transitory storage medium embodying logic that is configured when executed to receive, by the one or more electrodes and an analog front end, signals transmitted from a touch sensor coupled to a touch-sensor controller, and convert the signals into sequences of digital signals. The logic is further configured when executed to feed the sequences of digital signals received in different periods into a memory; correlate each of the sequences of digital signals with a digital data defined by a wide-band code to generate multiple correlations; and transmit a transmission signal to the touch-sensor controller according to a synchronization timing determined based at least in part on one or more of the multiple correlations.
