An image forming apparatus includes processing circuitry and a sensor. The processing circuitry controls formation of an image of an evaluation pattern on a transfer object. The sensor measures the image of the evaluation pattern formed on the transfer object. The processing circuitry presents a determination result of a cause of a failure based on a comparison between a reference value serving as a reference of the evaluation pattern and a measured value of the image of the evaluation pattern by the sensor.

Fluid handling device and fluid handling method

A hybrid authentication system, a method, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium for single-sign-on authentication is provided. The hybrid authentication system is communicatively coupled to a web application server and a public ledger. The hybrid authentication system receives a request from the web application server to access secure content on a resource server and controls display of a set of user-selectable options on a user interface of a user device based on the received request. The hybrid authentication system selects at least one authentication option from the displayed set of user-selectable options and authenticates the received request based on the selected at least one authentication option. The selection of the at least one authentication option is based on a user input over the displayed set of user-selectable options.

Single sign-on authentication via multiple authentication options

A channel chip having a channel for running a fluid that is opened and closed by sliding on a film a sliding member slidable on the film while contacting with the film, the channel chip comprising: a substrate including a first channel, a second channel and a partition wall formed between the first channel and the second channel; a film including a diaphragm having a substantially spherical crown shape, the film being disposed on the substrate so that the diaphragm faces the partition wall; and a positioning section for holding the sliding member in such a way that the sliding member is slidable on the film while the positioning section positions the sliding member, the positioning section being disposed on the film.

Channel chip

This fluid handling device has a substrate, a film, and a sliding member. The substrate has first flow paths, second flow paths, and partition walls formed between one end of the first flow paths and one end of the second flow paths. The film includes a diaphragm, and is arranged above the substrate such that the diaphragm and the partition walls oppose one another. The sliding member has protrusions formed on the back surface thereof, and is arranged above the film with the back surface facing the film. By sliding on the film the sliding member is able switch alternately between a first state in which the protrusions are arranged so as not to oppose the partition walls, and the diaphragm is sandwiched therebetween, and a second state in which the protrusions are arranged opposing the partition walls, and the diaphragm is sandwiched therebetween.

Fluid handling device, fluid handling method, and flow path chip
