A space located opposite to the opening when viewed from the emission base and surrounded by the container and the moving member communicates with a space located outside the space through a communication portion.

An electronic apparatus includes: an input module configured to input an export instruction and an electronic apparatus identifier, the export instruction instructing to export an application, the electronic apparatus identifier corresponding to one different electronic apparatus; a controller module configured to generate an activation key on a basis of the electronic apparatus identifier where the export instruction is input, the activation key being for activating the application only in the one different electronic apparatus, control to output a package file including the application and the activation key, and inactivate the application after a certain replacement transition time period passes, the certain replacement transition time period starting from an output time point of the package file; and an output module configured to output the package file controlled by the controller module.

Electronic apparatus, and method of controlling electronic apparatus

An aerial vehicle safety apparatus includes an expandable object, an ejection apparatus, a bag-shaped member, and a gas generator. The expandable object is wound or folded in a non-expanded state and generates at least any of lift and buoyancy in an expanded state. The ejection apparatus is coupled to the expandable object by a coupling member and ejects the non-expanded expandable object into air. The bag-shaped member is provided in the expandable object and wound or folded together with or separately from the non-expanded expandable object, and expands the non-expanded expandable object by at least partially being inflated like a tube. The gas generator is provided in the expandable object and inflates the bag-shaped member by causing gas generated at the time of activation to flow into the bag-shaped member.

A storage device stores, for each of one or more function expansion applications, the hardware component necessary for operation of the function expansion application. A control circuit is configured to detect that there is a failure in any of the plurality of hardware components, determine whether or not there is the function expansion application that needs, for operation thereof, the hardware component from which a failure has been detected, and perform control so that an operation mode is switched to a first degeneracy mode in which the detected hardware component is not used where there is no function expansion application that needs the detected hardware component, and the other hardware components are used.

Electronic apparatus and non-transitory computer readable recording medium that records control program

An aerial vehicle includes an airframe, a canopy capable of adjusting a speed of falling during falling, a brake cord having one end connected to the canopy, a wind-up apparatus provided in the airframe and being capable of winding up the other end of the brake cord, a sensor unit that detects a distance to an external object, and a controller that controls an operation of the wind-up apparatus based on a result of detection by the sensor unit. The wind-up apparatus includes a gas generator as a drive source. The controller has the wind-up apparatus operate to wind up the other end of the brake cord by activating the gas generator when the distance detected by the sensor unit is equal to or smaller than a prescribed value.

Aerial vehicle

An operation device includes a screen display section that displays a login screen on a touch panel, a key position changing section, a key information reception section, and a key information determination section. The key position changing section changes positions of a plurality of keys that are displayed on the login screen such that the keys are displayed for a current login process at positions that are different from previous positions at which the keys were displayed for a previous login process. The key information reception section generates input information representing a key pressed on the login screen. The key information determination section allows login of a user when a combination of pieces of input information corresponding to a plurality of key presses performed by the user matches registration information and does not allow login of the user when the combination does not match registration information.

Operation device and operation method

An information processing apparatus has: a data communication portion for communicating with a first image forming apparatus holding an authentic prime key within the same local network, and a second image forming apparatus within the same local network; a storage portion for storing a key generation program for issuing an activation key based on the prime key; and a control portion for acquiring the prime key from the first image forming apparatus on receiving an activation request from the second image forming apparatus, generating the activation key for use on the second image forming apparatus, and transmitting the activation key to the second image forming apparatus.

Information processing apparatus, image forming system, and method for controlling an information processing apparatus

A server device is connected with a plurality of electronic devices in a communicable manner and configures a setting for a desired electronic device out of the plurality of electronic devices. The server device includes a device location management section and a setting determination section. The device location management section acquires location information representing current locations of the electronic devices. The setting determination section refers to settings for other electronic devices, out of the plurality of electronic devices, located at a short distance from the current location of the desired electronic device to determine the setting for the desired electronic device.
