A wireless communication device includes a processor and a memory configured to store a program for establishing a wireless connection with a terminal device. The processor establishes, in accordance with the program stored in the memory, the wireless connection with the terminal device upon request for the wireless connection from one of the wireless communication device and the terminal device. Upon establishment of the wireless connection with the terminal device, the processor queries the terminal device with which the wireless connection is established to check a state of an application program for causing the wireless communication device to execute a specific function. The processor maintains or cuts off the wireless connection with the terminal device based on a state of a response of the terminal device with respect to the query.

A present giving method performed by a processor includes the following. That is, selecting a print design that is given to a second user who is a receiver of the print design as a present according to operation by a first user who is a giver of the print design; and setting a hiding flag in design information of the print design according to the operation by the first user, wherein when the hiding flag is set, the selected print design is not displayed on a display in a state that the print design is visible when printing is performed on a print target included in the second user.

An image capturing device includes a housing and a processor. The processor is configured to determine whether a state of movement of the housing relative to an observation target is either a first state or a second state, and perform a control based on the state of the movement of the housing to cause change in electric energy for drive of the image capturing device.

Image capturing device, image capturing method and recording medium

A display device used in a vehicle for displaying virtual images includes: a display including a light source to emit image light and a screen on which the image light is projected; and a controller to adjust positions at which the virtual images are displayed. Images displayed on the screen are projected as the virtual images. The virtual images include first and second virtual images displayed at different positions. The display displays, on the screen, a first adjustment image that is projected to a display area of the first virtual image and a second adjustment image that is projected to a display area of the second virtual image. The controller adjusts a position of the display area of the first virtual image and a position of the display area of the second virtual image on a basis of the first adjustment image and the second adjustment image.

Display device and adjustment method

The application device comprises a sensor that detects movement of the application device on an application target, a camera that obtains a captured image that is an image of a surface of the application target and is captured during the movement of the application device, a head that applies ink, and a processor, wherein the processor specifies an ink application area based on the captured image of the surface of the application target that is captured by the camera in accordance with the movement that is detected by the sensor, and controls the head to apply ink to the ink application area in accordance with the movement.

Application device, ink application method, and non-transitory recording medium

A printing device includes a printing head configured to print an image on a printing medium while moving relative to the printing medium; a detector configured to detect a relative moving amount of the printing head with respect to the printing medium for each sampling cycle; and a processor configured to perform a first control to cause the printing head to perform printing when a moving speed of the printing head based on the moving amount detected by the detector and the sampling cycle is equal to or higher than a first moving speed at which the moving amount for each the sampling cycle becomes a reference distance corresponding to a print resolution of the printing head, the printing being performed at a timing that is set in accordance with the moving speed.

Printing device, printing method, and storage medium

A printing apparatus comprises a printer that prints an image on a printing medium and a processor that controls printing by the printer. The printer comprises a first printing array and a second printing array that print the image and are separated along a first direction, and when the printer prints a second image at a position adjacent to a first image after printing the first image while the printer moves in a movement direction which the first printing array is in front, the first image being printed from a first end toward a second end along the first direction, the first image having a first area image disposed at the first end side, the second area image disposed at the second end side, and a third area image disposed between the first area image and the second area image, the second image being printed from a third end toward a fourth end, the second image having a fourth area image disposed at the third end side, a fifth area image disposed at the fourth end side, and a sixth area image disposed between the fourth area image and the fifth area image, the processor causes printing of the second area image by the second printing array to be performed in parallel with printing of the fourth area image by the first printing array.

Printing apparatus, printing method, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium

A printing apparatus includes: a printer that performs printing on a printing medium; and a sensor that outputs a detection signal while the printing apparatus moves relative to the printing medium. The printing apparatus determines whether the sensor is above a first surface or above a second surface of the printing medium, based on the detection signal output from the sensor, the first surface being a surface on which a moving amount of the printing apparatus with respect to the printing medium is acquired, and the second surface being a surface on which the moving amount is not acquired, and if the sensor is determined to be above the second surface, controls printing on the printing medium by the printer according to an estimated value of the moving amount with respect to the printing medium.

A print assisting device detects, from information on a captured image including a first reference marker for a manual scanning type printing device and a second reference marker of a print medium on which the printing device is placed, information on the first and the second reference marker, and creates, as information on an assisting image, based on the information on the first and second reference markers and information on a contents to be printed by the printing device, at least any one of information on a first image of the contents that is printed in a case where the printing device is scanned from a current position, information on a second image of the contents that is printed in a case where the printing device is scanned from a printing start position which is designated, and information on a third image to guide a position of the printing device to the printing start position, and causes a display device to display the assisting image superimposed on the captured image.
