There is provided a cooking robot, a cooking robot control device, and a control method that enable a cooking robot to customize a dish prepared according to a preference of an eater. The cooking robot () according to one aspect of the present technology controls a cooking operation performed by a cooking arm (), using recipe data including a data set in which cooking operation data and cook biological data are linked, the cooking operation data describing information regarding an ingredient of a dish and information regarding an operation of a cook in a cooking process using the ingredient, and the cook biological data indicating a biological reaction of the cook measured in conjunction with a progress of the cooking process. The present technology can be applied to a cooking robot that operates an arm to cook.

Cooking robot, cooking robot control device, and control method

An information processing apparatus according to the present invention includes a data retrieval unit for obtaining at least two element data, a dissimilarity calculation unit for calculating a dissimilarity between the element data obtained by the data retrieval unit, a transition cost calculation unit for calculating a cost of transition from one of the element data obtained by the data retrieval unit to another of the element data thereof which is different therefrom, and a distance calculation unit for calculating an element distance representing the degree of dissimilarity between the element data by using the dissimilarity calculated by the dissimilarity calculation unit and the transition cost calculated by the transition cost calculation unit.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program

A position detection apparatus includes: a moving member in contact with a detection object that moves following movement of the detection object; and a support member that rotatably supports the moving member; a detection unit that detects a positional change of the moving member, the moving member being acted on by a first force as a force to press the moving member against the detection object, a second force as a force to press the moving member substantially in a direction of a rotation shaft of the moving member, and a third force as a force to press the moving member in a direction substantially orthogonal to the direction of the rotation shaft of the moving member.

Position detection apparatus, paper thickness detection apparatus, belt position detection apparatus, and image forming apparatus

A sheet feed device includes an air flow generating part that generates an air flow for floating a sheet; a feed member that feeds a sheet by rotating, while applying a load to the top one of sheets stacked; and a transport condition sensing unit that is positioned not to obstruct an air flow generated by the air flow generating part and senses a transport condition of a sheet fed by the feed member.

Sheet feed device and image forming apparatus

A recording medium supply apparatus includes: a conveyance member that conveys a recording medium; a retard member, in contact with the conveyance member, that forms a contact portion between the conveyance member and the retard member and retards the recording medium by holding the recording medium in the contact portion; and a buckling prevention unit, configured to contact with the recording medium on the upstream side of the contact portion between the conveyance member and the retard member in a conveyance direction of the recording medium, that prevents buckling of the recording medium in the conveyance direction.

Recording medium supply apparatus and image forming apparatus having buckling prevention unit

A measuring device, wherein a feed-out member feeds out an uppermost one of plural sheet-shaped materials stacked on a base by rotating in contact with the uppermost sheet-shaped material, has a detector that detects a force imparted to the base and the sheet-shaped materials not in contact with the feed-out member, the force being generated by feeding-out the uppermost sheet-shaped material.

Measuring device, sheet-shaped material transporting device, image formation device and measuring method

A sheet feeding apparatus includes: a multiple-feed detecting section that detects recording sheets to be transported by plural rolls in a direction; a separating section that separates an uppermost sheet of the recording sheets from the other; a slippage detecting section that detects a slippage of the uppermost recording sheet with respect to a roll; and a transporting-speed reduction suppressing section that suppresses a transporting-speed of the uppermost recording sheet from reducing from a value, the separation section including: a transporting roll that transports recording sheets in a transporting direction; and a separation roll that is placed to be opposed to and to be press-contacted with the transporting roll through a recording sheet, the transporting-speed reduction suppressing section changing a separation torque of the separation roll according based on a result of detection by the multiple-feed detecting section and a result of detection by the slippage detecting section.

Sheet feeding apparatus, image forming apparatus and sheet feeding method

The present invention provides benzodiazepine derivatives of the following formula, analogs thereof and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds of the present invention have an excellent effect of inhibiting activated blood-coagulation factor X. These compounds are usable as agents for treating various diseases concerned with the activated blood-coagulation factor X.

Benzodiazepine derivatives

Benzamidine derivatives of the following formula, analogs thereof and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are provided. These compounds have an effect of inhibiting activated blood-coagulation factor X, and they are useful as agents for preventing or treating various diseases caused by thrombi or emboli.

Benzamidine derivative

A benzamidine derivative of the following formula, analogs thereof and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof have an effect of inhibiting the blood coagulation based on their excellent effect of inhibiting activated blood-coagulation factor X. Thus, a blood-coagulation inhibitor or an agent for preventing or treating thrombosis or embolism, containing one of those compounds as the active ingredient, is provided.

Benzamidine derivatives

Light is applied by a laser diode onto a photosensitive roll formed with a developed toner image the surface potential of the photosensitive roll to which the light is applied is measured with a surface potential sensor and the toner amount of the developed toner image on the photosensitive roll is derived based on the measured surface potential.
