A mascara applicator includes an application stick that is attached to a cap sealing and covering an opening part of a mascara accommodation container and that can be accommodated in the mascara accommodation container, and an application body that is rotatably attached to a tip end of the application stick and that extends in a substantially axial direction of the application stick, in which one side surface on a side opposite to a rotating direction of the application body is orthogonal to a plane including a rotation path, and a ridge part that is formed by the one side surface and a side surface adjacent to the one side surface is used, while the application body is rotated and an axis of the application body is bent with respect to an axis of the application stick, so as to apply mascara.

Mascara applicator

A system is provided including a first detection unit detecting a position of a first terminal, a second detection unit detecting a position of a second terminal, and a notification area determination unit determining a notification area based on the detected position of the second terminal, wherein, within the notification area, position information regarding the position of the first terminal is not notified. The system also includes a first route prediction unit predicting a route from a position of the first terminal to the notification area, a time calculation unit calculating a time period required for arriving at the notification area when the first terminal travels along the predicted route, and a notification unit permitting the notification when the first terminal does not arrive at the notification area after the time period elapses from the current time, and suppressing the notification while the time period does not elapse.

Parental alert and child tracking device which determines if a child has deviated from a predicated travel route

To provide a destination prediction apparatus which predicts a destination more accurately than before. A destination prediction apparatus which predicts a destination of a mobile object includes: a stay characteristic accumulating unit in which stay characteristic information indicating a time period when the mobile object will likely stay at a predetermined point is accumulated; a travel time calculating unit which calculates a travel time in the case where the mobile object heads from a current location obtained by a current point obtaining unit to the point; and a destination predicting unit which calculates an estimated arrival time based on a current time obtained by a current time obtaining unit and the calculated travel time and predicts the point as a destination only when a condition that the calculated estimated arrival time and a time period indicated by the stay characteristic information is satisfied.

Destination prediction apparatus and method thereof

A destination display apparatus includes: a position obtaining unit () which obtains a current position of a mobile terminal; a situation obtaining unit () which obtains a current situation of the mobile terminal; a history accumulating unit () which obtains the current situation and a destination history; a destination predicting unit () which predicts destinations; a destination obtaining unit () which obtains the predicted destinations; a label accumulating unit () which accumulates a name label as a hierarchical structure including parent-child relationships between name labels; a number-to-be-displayed obtaining unit () which obtains the number of the name labels to be displayed on the mobile terminal; a label selecting unit () which selects a label to be displayed; an information obtaining unit () which obtains information from an external network medium (); and a display unit () which displays the selected label and calculated information.

Destination display apparatus and destination display method

A travel plan presenting apparatus includes: a travel history accumulation unit () which accumulates, in association with a date and time, pieces of travel history information regarding a travel of the mobile object from a departure place to an arrival place; a travel pattern extracting unit () which extracts at least one travel pattern from the pieces of travel history information and generates travel patterns in each of which an order of arrival places other than the final arrival place included in a corresponding one of the extracted travel patterns; a travel plan calculating unit () which calculates estimated arrival times at each of the arrival places in the travel patterns extracted and generated by the travel pattern extracting unit (); and a display processing unit () which generates display information for displaying the estimated arrival time for each travel pattern.

Travel plan presenting apparatus and method thereof

A map information display apparatus that displays a map for a mobile object includes: a grouping unit () that divides a map included in an image displayed by a map display unit () into a plurality of areas; a display position determination unit () that selects, for each of the plurality of areas, at most a predetermined number of points as points for displaying estimated transit times, the predetermined number being equal to or larger than 1; a time calculation unit () that calculates the estimated transit times of the selected points; and the map display unit () that displays an image including the map and the estimated transit times.

Map information display apparatus and method thereof

A destination prediction device having a map information accumulation unit that accumulates map information including at least positions of a plurality of points on a map and routes between the plurality of points; a start position acquisition unit that acquires a start position of the mobile body; a current position acquisition unit that acquires a current position of the mobile body; a destination candidate position acquisition unit that acquires positions of a plurality of destination candidates that may potentially become destinations of the mobile body; a circuitousness calculation unit that calculates a circuitousness which is a deviation of a route from the start position to the position of the destination candidate and a destination prediction unit that predicts, as a destination, a destination candidate whose calculated circuitousness is the smallest among the destination candidates.
