A window camera includes: an image capturing unit, a housing, and a light-shielding member. The image capturing unit is configured to capture an image of outdoors from an indoor surface of a window. The housing includes an attachment surface having a rectangular shape and facing in parallel with the indoor surface. In the housing, the image capturing unit is provided to be recessed in the attachment surface such that an optical axis of the image capturing unit is aligned with an intersection of a pair of diagonal lines of the attachment surface. The light-shielding member protrudes from the attachment surface toward the indoor surface and has a rectangular frame shape along an outer shape of the attachment surface. The light-shielding member is formed of an elastic material and elastically deformable by pressing from the housing to close a gap between the indoor surface and the attachment surface.

A camera fixed by suction to a transparent member and configured to capture an image through the transparent member includes: a planar portion having an opening; an auxiliary member attached to a surface of the planar portion and including a hole formed therein, the hole communicating with the opening of the planar portion, the auxiliary member having a plate shape and being brought into contact with the transparent member; and a suction portion causing the auxiliary member to be attached by suction to the transparent member by forming a negative pressure in the opening of the planar portion, in which the auxiliary member is softer than a material of the planar portion.

A loudspeaker system capable of simultaneously providing listeners with a listening environment not giving them a feeling of strangeness. The loudspeaker system () comprises drive motors (toto) for so driving at least first R-channel loudspeaker () that the current first listening position is substantially included in the perpendicularly bisecting plane of a line joining the intersecting point of the first R-channel speaker () and its directivity axis and the intersecting point of the second R-channel loudspeaker () and its directivity axis and so driving at least fourth L-channel loudspeaker () that the current second listening point is substantially included in the perpendicularly bisecting plane of the line joining the intersecting point of a third L-channel loudspeaker () and its directivity axis and the intersecting point of a fourth L-channel loudspeaker () and its directivity axis. The loudspeaker system () further comprises their motor driver section ().
