An exercise training apparatus attached to a trainee who performs a body exercise training, includes movable bodies, actuators, sensors and a processor. The movable bodies each having a fixed member which a part of a trainee's body is fixed to and exercising a trainee's extremities by rotating around shafts, respectively. The sensors each detecting a physical quantity that changes depending on force applied to the fixed members by a trainee. The processor, in response to a detection of a predetermined change in a physical quantity by the sensors, driving the actuators, rotating the movable bodies in a first direction and successively rotating the movable bodies in a second direction opposite to the first direction.

Exercise training apparatus

An image processing system provided with a reception device for receiving image information and an output device for outputting image information at high resolution in case where the received image information is binary image information, and for outputting image information at resolution lower than resolution of the received image data in case where the received image information is other than binary image data. Thereby, a quantity of image information can be reduced without degradation of picture quality. Thus an image can be transmitted and stored.

Image processing separately processing two-density-level image data and

A printer used as an output unit for a personal computer or the like is characterized by having a memory unit including a first memory area for storing input data and a second memory area for storing image data obtained by developing the input data, the first memory area and the second memory area being arranged within one and the same memory space to form the memory unit, and by having an area control unit for changing a proportion of the capacity of the second memory area within the memory unit to alter the relative proportions of the first memory area and the second memory area in the memory space forming the memory unit. A print unit included in the printer fetches the image data from the second memory area and performs printing in accordance with the fetched image data.
