An information processing apparatus is provided. The information processing apparatus includes a communication unit configured to: transmit a first update command for updating a value stored in a terminal device to the terminal device, transmit a second update command when no notification is received after the first update command transmitted within a first predetermined time; a control unit configured to determine if the value has been changed by comparing a first value retrieved from the terminal device before the first update command transmitted and a second value retrieved from the terminal device after the second update command transmitted when no notification is received after the second update command transmitted within a second predetermined time. An information processing method is also provided.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

An example system includes a contactless communication part that performs contactless communication with a data storage medium having a contactless communication function; a data writing part that writes data to the data storage medium by the contactless communication part; a storage part that stores the data written by the data writing part; and a data determination part that determines whether the data stored in the data storage medium and the data stored in the storage part have a predetermined relationship with each other or not. When the data determination part determines that both of the data do not have the predetermined relationship with each other, the data writing part overwrites the data stored in the data storage medium with the data stored in the storage part.

Information processing apparatus, information processing system, information processing method, and recording medium

An example system includes: a contactless communication part that performs contactless communication with a data storage medium having a contactless communication function; a data writing part that writes data to the data storage medium by the contactless communication part; a storage part that stores the data written by the data writing part; and a corruption determination part that determines whether the data stored in the data storage medium is corrupted or not. When the corruption determination part determines that the data is corrupted, the data writing part writes the data stored in the storage part, to the data storage medium.

An electronic apparatus includes: a main body including a housing section that houses a battery; a lid attached to the main body to cover the housing section, the lid being adapted to perform state shift between a closed state and an open state; and a locking member attached to the main body, the locking member locking the lid both in the closed state and in the open state.

Electronic apparatus

An electronic money terminal is provided to confirm whether a currency terminal has executed money amount change processing when there is no response after transmission of money amount change information to the currency terminal. The electronic money terminal reads and stores a value balance before transmission of money amount change information from an electronic money card. Then, the electronic money terminal transmits the money amount change information to the electronic money card. The electronic money terminal waits for a response from the electronic money card for a predetermined time and, if no response is transmitted, the electronic money terminal forcibly reads a current value balance in the electronic money card. The electronic money terminal compares this value balance with the value balance read before transmission of the money amount change information, determines that the money amount change information has not been carried out in the electronic money card if both the value balances are equal to each other, and determines that the money amount change information has been carried out in the electronic money card if they are different from each other.

A protective coveris mounted to the outer surface of a yokeof a canister vent solenoid valveinstalled near a rear wheel of a vehicle body. A guide groove engaged with fringes of a yoke mounting boardis provided in the inner walls of opposite side platesof the cover. On the sides of the platesopposite a top plateare provided mounting sectionsprojecting in a direction parallel to the guide groove. At the tips of the sections, there are provided claw sectionslocking edges on the rear of the yokewhen the coveris mounted along the groovefrom the front of the yoke. The top plateof the coveris provided with a connector holepassing through a power source connectorof the valve

Toothbrush

A coil apparatus having a divided winding conformation and a manufacturing method of the coil apparatus which can prevent a winding from collapsing while achieving a reduction in size of a core and simplification of a structure. A coil apparatus includes a ferrite core and a coil provided around the core. The coil includes at least a first coil portion and a second coil portion, and a boundary end surface of the first coil portion on the second coil portion side is inclined in such a manner that its inner peripheral side is closer to the second coil portion than its outer peripheral side. Further, a boundary end surface of the second coil portion on the first coil portion side is inclined in such a manner that its outer peripheral side is closer to the first coil portion than its inner peripheral side.

Coil device

A coil apparatus that can increase mechanical strength of terminal portions and assure sufficient impact resistant properties and vibration resistant properties even in an application in a severe use environment such as an in-vehicle coil apparatus. Terminals are formed of one metal sheet, and include an attachment portion, an intermediate portion, and a bottom portion. One end of the attachment portion is fixed at each terminal attachment portion of a core. One end of the intermediate portion is continuous with the other end of the attachment portion at a first bent portion. The bottom portion has a first end continuous with the other end of the intermediate portion at a second bent portion, facing the attachment portion, and a second free end. The intermediate portion has a hole in a plane thereof. In each hole, both inner edges that are opposed to each other in at least one direction have an arc shape.

A telephoto zoom lens system includes a positive first lens group, a negative second lens group as a focusing lens group, a diaphragm, a positive third lens group, and a positive fourth lens group, in this order from the object. Upon zooming from the short focal length extremity to the long focal length extremity, all the lens groups move toward the image. The second lens group includes a firstsub-lens group, and a secondsub-lens group, in this order from the object. The telephoto zoom lens system satisfies the following conditions:1.6&#x3c;|&#x3c;2.1&#x2003;&#x2003;(1)0.45&#x3c;|&#x3c;0.8&#x2003;&#x2003;(2)wherein

Telephoto zoom lens system

A zoom lens system includes a negative first lens group, a positive second lens group, and a positive third lens group functioning as a focusing lens group, in this order from the object. Upon zooming from the short focal length extremity to the long focal length extremity, the distance between the negative first lens group and the positive second lens group decreases, and the distance between the positive second lens group and the positive third lens group increases. The positive third lens group includes cemented lens elements having a positive lens element and a negative lens element. The zoom lens system satisfies the following condition:0.2&#x3c;&#x2003;&#x2003;(1) wherein fdesignates the focal length of the positive lens element of the positive third lens group; and fdesignates the focal length of the negative lens element of the positive third lens group.

Zoom lens system

A fisheye lens system includes a negative first lens group and a positive second lens group, which are defined with respect to a maximum air-distance between lens elements constituting the fisheye lens system. The negative first lens group includes a first negative meniscus lens element having the convex surface facing toward the object, a second negative meniscus lens element having the convex surface facing toward the object, and a negative third lens element.
