A reversible recording medium according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a recording layer including a leuco pigment as a coloring compound; and a first barrier film that is provided on one surface and a side surface of the recording layer and suppresses mixing of at least one of water or oxygen.

Reversible recording medium and exterior member

A thermosensitive recording medium according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a recording layer that includes a coloring compound having electron-donating property, a developer having electron-accepting property, a photothermal conversion agent, and a polymer material; and a protective member that is stacked on the recording layer, and has a convexo-concave shape in a plane.

Thermosensitive recording medium and exterior member

An information medium according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes two or more data layers provided on a support base. The two or more data layers have two or more pieces of visible information recorded on the two or more data layers. The two or more pieces of visible information are obtained by decomposing two-dimensional visible information and thereby allowing synthesis of the two or more pieces of visible information to result in the two-dimensional visible information.

Information medium, recording apparatus, and reading apparatus

A reversible recording medium according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first recording layer to be colored in a first color, a second recording layer to be colored in a second color, the second color being different from the first color, and a first intermediate layer provided between the first recording layer and the second recording layer, the first intermediate layer including a plurality of layers respectively containing materials different from each other.

A product design system includes a first transmitting section that uses a look-up table to convert second design image data for which image correction is completed into third design image data of a color space that is represented with a thermochromic material, and transmits the third design image data derived from the conversion to an external apparatus, and a second transmitting section that transmits a decorating request based on fourth design image data that is profile-transformed from the second design image data to a decorating apparatus.

Product design system and design image correction apparatus

A drawing and erasing apparatus includes a light source section that includes a plurality of laser elements different from each other in emission wavelength, a multiplexer that multiplexes a plurality of types of laser light beams outputted from the plurality of laser elements, a scanner section that performs scanning with multiplexed light outputted from the multiplexer on a reversible recording medium including a plurality of recording layers, the plurality of recording layers being reversible and different from each other in developed color hue, and a controller that controls a main scanning speed and a sub-scanning speed of the scanner section to cause the scanner section to perform overlapping scanning of a predetermined region on the reversible recording medium during erasure of information written on the reversible recording medium.

Drawing and erasing apparatus and erasing method

A request processing apparatus includes a selecting section and an outputting section. The selecting section selects, from multiple pieces of photo data obtained through shooting during an event, one or more pieces of photo data consistent with a request accepted before or during the event. The outputting section outputs the one or more pieces of photo data selected by the selecting section.

Request processing apparatus and request accepting apparatus

A reversible recording medium according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first layer that reversibly changes between an achromatic state and a transparent state, and a second layer that reversibly changes between a chromatic state and a transparent state.

An optical apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is an apparatus that performs one or both of writing and erasing of information with respect to a reversible recording medium. This optical apparatus includes a plurality of laser devices varying in emission wavelength in a near infrared region (700 nm to 2500 nm), an optical system that multiplexes laser beams outputted from the plurality of laser devices, and a scanner unit that scans a multiplexed light beam obtained by multiplexing by the optical system, on the reversible recording medium.

Optical apparatus, rendering and erasing apparatus, and irradiation method

A recording device according to the present disclosure includes: a writer that rewrites schedule information visibly recorded on a recording medium and corresponding to a time from first schedule information to second schedule information; and a generator that generates the second schedule information on the basis of a time.
