A communication system for controlling communication between a terminal apparatus and a counterpart terminal apparatus, includes circuitry that: converts speech data into language information, the speech data representing speech input to the terminal apparatus or speech input to the counterpart terminal apparatus; displays the language information that is converted on an information display screen at the terminal apparatus in a chronological order; displays, on the information display screen, content based on a user operation on the language information displayed in the first area of the information display screen; and transmits information on the content displayed on the information display screen to a counterpart terminal apparatus, to cause the counterpart terminal apparatus to display the content.

Communication system, information processing system, and information processing method for displaying language information converted from speech data

A communication system includes circuitry. The circuitry receives an input of language information. The circuitry performs recognition on the input language information. The circuitry displays one or more images corresponding to the input language information on a display, based on a result of the recognition.

A method and apparatus for removing soluble silica efficiently from accompanied water, produced from wells containing calcium ion, soluble silica, and sulfate ion, and not clogging a reverse osmosis membrane in the reverse osmosis membrane treatment process after that, includes adding a magnesium salt to mix with the accompanied water under alkaline conditions to produce insoluble silica and calcium sulfate. A microfiltration (MF) membrane treatment process includes treating a first reaction solution obtained in said magnesium salt adding process, with a microfiltration membrane to separate insolubilized silica and calcium sulfate by filtration. An acid adding process includes adding an acid to and mixing with filtrate obtained in the MF membrane treatment process to render a pH value of the filtrate on the range from 5 to 9 and a negative Langeliar saturation index. A reverse osmosis membrane treatment process includes treating a second reaction solution, obtained in the acid adding process, with a reverse osmosis membrane to obtain fresh water and membrane concentrates.

A light deflector is provided including a mirror unit having a light reflection plane, a movable frame to support the mirror unit, a support frame disposed to surround the movable frame, a pair of serpentine beams each disposed between the movable frame and the support frame on both sides of the movable frame to form a turning shape, each of the serpentine beams having one end attached to the support frame, and another end attached to the movable frame, and a vibration damper provided on a portion that moves due to deformation of the serpentine beams caused by application of voltage being transferred.

Light deflector, two-dimensional image display apparatus, optical scanner, and image forming apparatus

To avoid unintentionally turning off a backlight, a device includes circuitry that is configured to control a backlight to illuminate a display panel of the device; store a first preset time interval for reducing brightness of the backlight; determine that an input has not been received within the first preset time interval; acquire one or more signals from a sensor device corresponding to movement of the device; estimate whether the device is in use based on the one or more signals; and postpone a reduction in the brightness of the backlight based when a result of an estimate indicates that the device is in use.
