An information processing device is provided with a controller which executes: obtaining predetermined service information including an advertisement; obtaining predetermined user information on biological information of a user in a vehicle in which the user rides; estimating a health condition of the user based on the user information; extracting distribution information which is information, among the service information, is judged to match the user based on the user's health condition, and which is information about a medical facility according to the health condition or/and information about a predetermined store which sells goods according to the health condition; and selecting, based on position information of the vehicle, information to be actually distributed to the user from among the distribution information thus extracted, and providing the information thus selected to the user, by transmitting the selected distribution information to an on-board device of the vehicle.

Information processing device, information processing method, and non-transitory storage medium

An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure comprises a controller including at least one processor. The controller is configured to: acquire a level of crowdedness of an intended store, the intended store being a store as a destination of a vehicle in which a user is riding; if the level of crowdedness of the intended store is greater than a given threshold, extract a store with a lower level of crowdedness than the intended store as a given recommended store from among other stores belonging to a same business group as the intended store; generate a suggestion advertisement, the suggestion advertisement being an advertisement for suggesting changing the destination of the vehicle from the intended store to the given recommended store; and present the suggestion advertisement to the user riding in the vehicle via a mobile terminal, the mobile terminal being a terminal that moves with the vehicle.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and non-transitory storage medium

An information processing apparatus extracts at least one store from a plurality of stores in accordance with an order in which degrees of safety for a target vehicle are ordered as starting from higher degrees of safety, by using information which indicates the degree of safety relevant to situations to be provided if a user visits the store and the user leaves the store by using the vehicle with respect to each of the plurality of stores belonging to a predetermined category; and provides, to the user who gets on the target vehicle, information which prompts the user to visit the at least one store.

It is an object of the present disclosure to provide more appropriate advertisement information for each of a plurality of users sharing a specific space. The advertisement delivery system provides advertisement information to each user existing in a specific space shared by a plurality of users having a specific purpose. In this advertisement delivery system, an information processing device generates advertisement information for each user based on an attribute of a specific space associated with a specific purpose and an attribute of each user associated with the specific purpose. The advertisement distribution device arranged in a specific space receives advertisement information for each user from the information processing device and transmits the received advertisement information to the user terminal associated with the user to be provided.

Provided is a production method for a carbon-based light-emitting material that generates light having a wavelength of 500 to 700 nm when exposed to excitation light having a wavelength of 300 to 600 nm. The production method comprises a step for mixing and heating a starting material containing ascorbic acid, an acid catalyst containing an inorganic acid, and a solvent.

Production method for carbon-based light-emitting material

Provided is a method for manufacturing a carbonaceous luminescent material in which a polycarboxylic-acid-containing starting material, an acid catalyst, and a solvent are mixed together and heated.

Technologies are generally described for designing a window glazing for a particular geographical location. In some examples, a window glazing can be designed to selectively block sunlight from entering the window during summer when it may be desirable to have inside temperatures substantially lower than outside temperatures. The glazing can also be designed to selectively allow sunlight to enter the window during winter months when heat from sunlight may be desirable to raise indoor temperatures. The glazing can be prepared from a transparent material that can allow substantially full transmission of sunlight.

Selective light transmitting window glazings and methods of design and manufacture

Technologies are generally described for controlling temperature using compounds capable of photoisomerization. In some examples, a temperature control apparatus includes a first receiving unit configured to contain a compound capable of photoisomerization, a second receiving unit configured to contain the compound capable of photoisomerization, a first filter configured to pass first light from a first light source, and a second filter configured to pass second light from a second light source. Further, the first and second receiving units are coupled to each other so that the compound capable of photoisomerization may be circulated between the first and second receiving units, and the compound capable of photoisomerization in the first receiving unit and the second receiving unit is photoisomerized by at least one of the first light and the second light.

Apparatus containing photoisomerization compound

Luminance adjustment films that include at least one microcapsule containing at least one photoisomerizable compound which selectively decreases luminance of visible light in reaction to ultraviolet light having an intensity distribution which reflects a luminance distribution of the visible light are described.

A process for recovering Li-ions can include: providing a composition having Li-ions to be extracted therefrom; removing materials from the Li-ions; introducing one or more cyclic siloxane to the Li-ions so as to form one or more cyclic siloxane-Li-ion complexes; extracting the one or more cyclic siloxane-Li-ion complexes by one or more liquid-liquid extraction steps; separating an organic phase having the cyclic siloxane-Li-ion complexes from an aqueous phase; removing water from the organic phase; filtering the organic phase to obtain a filtrate; and obtaining one or more Li-ions (e.g., Li salts) from the filtrate.

Effective recovery of lithium from lithium ion battery waste

A first cell containing at least one magnetic particle is provided and a second cell is also provided. The second cell is cultured in the presence of the first cell. An alternating magnetic field is applied to the first cell. The alternating magnetic field at least partially separates the first cell from the second cell.

Separation of cultured cells

Embodiments described herein relate to in vitro cell culture. Embodiments include a substrate having a support layer that includes support molecules having a first region configured to bind to the substrate and having a photo-responsive region configured to change conformation between at least two conformations. In a first conformation of the photo-responsive region, the support molecules are configured to be more accessible to cells. In a second conformation of the photo-responsive region, the support molecules are configured to be less accessible to cells.

Selective conformation of cell culturing support layer

Bis-Phenol A (BPA) can now be replaced in industrial processes by BPA substitutes. The BPA substitutes can have structures that are derivatives of BPA. The BPA substitutes can be used in preparing epoxy composition, polycarbonate compositions, and polysulfonate compositions or for other uses in place of BPA.
