A link combination extraction unit () acquires all the combination of link candidates from among link candidates having an angle with respect to a movement direction of a pedestrian equal to or smaller than a threshold value among link candidates for n walking route networks. The link combination extraction unit () acquires all the combinations of link candidates that do not intersect with each other among the acquired combinations of link candidates. The link combination extraction unit () acquires all the combinations of link candidates that do not connect to each other among the acquired combinations of link candidates. The link combination extraction unit () acquires all the combinations of link candidates that are not on the same straight line among the acquired combinations of link candidates. A candidate determination unit () acquires a combination of link candidates closest to position information of a pedestrian when there are a plurality of acquired link candidates.

Time and effort to generate an electric field map to realize high-accuracy positioning is reduced. In an electric field map generation device () that generates an electric field map in which RSSI obtained when radio waves transmitted from a beacon () are observed at each of a plurality of points in the same space is associated with each of coordinates at the plurality of points, a radio wave strength acquisition unit () acquires RSSI observed at each of at least three observation points different in distance from the beacon (), a space propagation characteristics estimation unit () estimates space propagation characteristics of the radio waves transmitted from the beacon () in the same space using the acquired RSSI at the observation points, a radio wave strength estimation unit () estimates RSSI at estimation points on the basis of the estimated space propagation characteristics and distances between the estimation points different from the observation points and the beacon (), and a generation unit () generates the electric field map () using the RSSI at the observation points and the estimation points.

A position where a user is located can be estimated easily and quickly. When a hold detection unitdetects that the user holds a mobile terminalby hand to use the mobile terminalthat is held by at least one hand of the user when used by the user and has a cameraon the surface facing the ceiling when used by the user, the estimation unitestimates a position where a ceiling is located as the position where the user is located by using an image of the ceiling captured by the camera

Positioning system, positioning method, and program

An occlusal force-meter 1 includes an occlusal force detecting portion 2 for detecting an occlusal force and a main body 3 for processing the detected signal obtained by the occlusal force detecting portion 2 to display the occlusal force measured value on a display 4. The occlusal force detecting portion 2 includes a transmitting portion (second pressure transmitting portion) 5 having diaphragm portions 7, 8 at an upper surface and/or a lower surface of one end portion 5f thereof. A pressure medium liquid L is filed therein, for transmitting the occlusal force added to the diaphragm portions 7, 8 to a pressure detector 9 disposed on the other end portion 5r thereof. A first pressure transmitting portion 10 is positioned between teeth T and the diaphragm portions 7, 8 at the time of occlusion of the tested person for adding the occlusal force to surfaces of the diaphragm portions 7, 8 perpendicularly through the pressure applied surfaces of the diaphragm portions 7, 8 perpendicularly through the pressure applied surfaces Fu, Fd abutted to outer surfaces of the diaphragm portions 7, 8.

Occlusal force-meter

A first insulating film for the formation of a gate insulating film is formed on a semiconductor substrate having a memory cell forming region and a peripheral transistor forming region. A first conductive film for the formation of a floating gate is formed on the first insulating film, and a second insulating film is formed on the first conductive film. A second conductive film is formed on the second insulating film for protecting the second insulating film, and a protective film performing the functions of an oxidation-resistant film, a washing-resistant film and an etching resistant film is formed on the second conductive film. Then, the peripheral transistor region is subjected to a predetermined process. A third conductive film, which will become a control gate of the memory cell and a gate of the peripheral transistor, is formed on the second conductive film and the peripheral transistor forming region subjected to the predetermined process.
