Provided are a sound output control apparatus, a sound output control system, a sound output control method, and a program that can appropriately thin out the output of pieces of sound data. A sound data reception section receives a plurality of pieces of sound data transmitted from transmission apparatuses that are different from each other. A selection section selects a portion of the plurality of pieces of sound data on the basis of at least one of a result of a voice activity detection process performed on each of the pieces of sound data or moving averages of volumes of sounds represented by the pieces of sound data. A sound data transmission section outputs the selected portion of the pieces of sound data.

An electric mobility vehicle including a front-wheel-side body, a rear-wheel-side body, a seat on which a passenger sits in an in-use state, and a linking mechanism that links the front-wheel-side body with the rear-wheel-side body so as to be pivotable about a pivoting axis extending in a vehicle width direction. The electric mobility vehicle is foldable by pivoting the front-wheel-side body and the rear-wheel-side body relative to each other in a vehicle front-to-rear direction. The electric mobility vehicle includes a footrest provided in the front-wheel-side body, a front-end roller or a front-end caster provided in the front-wheel-side body and disposed at a vehicle front side relative to a front end of the front wheel in the in-use state, and comes into contact with the floor surface in the folded state to make the electric mobility vehicle stand alone.

A variation in optical output of a semiconductor luminous device outputting an optical signal to an optical fiber which is caused due to a variation in ambient temperature and an end of a life thereof capable of being compensated for without measuring the optical output. An output variation quantity H (Ta) of the semiconductor luminous device due to the ambient temperature Ta is operated in a step S In a step S an output reduction quantity ST of the semiconductor luminous device obtaining by accumulating an output reduction ST thereof per unit time due to a deterioration of the device is provided. In a step S it is judged that a life of the device reaches an end when the output reduction ST exceeds a reference value ST When the former fails to exceed the latter, a variation quantity IH(Ta) of a drive current command value due to the ambient temperature Ta and a current reduction quantity IST(ST, dST) determined due to a deterioration of the device are operated in a step S A drive current Id for driving the semiconductor luminous device is determined on the basis of a sum Is of the current command value Ic, the current variation quantity and the current reduction quantity. An output of the device is compensated for by repeating steps S to S
