An image pickup apparatus is configured to record sound. The image pickup apparatus includes a housing unit, a first microphone and a second microphone configured to acquire stereophonic sound, and disposed at positions laterally separated from each other, and a third microphone separate from the first microphone and the second microphone. The housing unit includes a first storing unit and a second storing unit separated from each other. The first microphone is disposed in the first storing unit. The second microphone and the third microphone are disposed in the second storing unit.

Image pickup apparatus

A body part of a camera includes a display that is at least partially flexible. A display part of the display includes a first display part and a second display part that are integrally formed. A hinge part that connects the first display part to the second display part to be rotatable relative to each other is provided in the vicinity of a bendable part located at a boundary of each display part. The display is bendable in accordance with rotation of the hinge part with the bendable part as a starting point. An operation member is disposed on a back surface of the second display part, and the operation member is exposed to the outside in a bent state of the display.

Electronic device

In an electronic apparatus, a display at least partially has flexibility, includes a plurality of display portions, and includes a bending portion at each of boundaries of the display portions. An electronic apparatus includes, near each bending portion, a hinge portion that relatively rotatably couples two display portions and is configured to be bendable at each bending portion as a start point in response to rotation of each hinge portion. A main body coupling member rotatably couples the display to the main body portion. The display is able to transition to an accommodated state in which the display overlaps at a position that is different from the grip portion inside an outer shape of the main body portion and an unfolded state in which the plurality of display portions are unfolded in a parallel and same direction.

Electronic apparatus

A display of an electronic apparatus includes first to third display portions that at least partially have flexibility and are integrally configured. The display has a first bending portion at a boundary between the first display portion and the second display portion and has a second bending portion at a boundary between the second display portion and the third display portion. A first hinge portion is relatively rotatably coupled to the first and second display portions. A second hinge portion is relatively rotatably coupled to the second and third display portions. The display is configured to be bendable at each bending portion as a start point in response to rotation of each hinge portion. The first bending portion and the second bending portion do not intersect each other and substantially perpendicularly intersect on extended lines of the first bending portion and the second bending portion.

A first processor core with an operating system installed and a second processor core controlled by the first processor core and capable of executing parallel operation processing are included. The second processor core, when detecting a page fault, stops new instruction issue and stops as an issued and uncompleted instruction can be restarted, and also sends notification of page fault detection to the first processor core. The first processor core includes a permissibility judgment part that judges whether or not the page fault is permissible in response to reception of the notification, a page table updating part that updates a page table included by the second processor core in accordance with a result of the judgment by the permissibility judgment part, and a directing part that sends a direction corresponding to a result of the judgment by the permissibility judgment part to the second processor core.

Multicore page fault processing

Disclosed are a synchronization processing unit etc. including a command determination unit that determines whether the memory access command is a command for synchronization processing; a completion determination unit that determines whether a memory access command is complete; an issuance unit configured to issue a memory access command determined not to be for the synchronization processing to the memory, and that suspends issuance of a memory access command determined to be for the synchronization processing until completion of a preceding memory access command received before the memory access command for the synchronization processing is determined and then issues the suspended memory access command; and a subsequent control unit that, during a period from the suspension of the memory access command to the issuance and then completion thereof, performs control so that a subsequent memory access command is not received from the external device and the processor in the device.

Synchronization processing unit, device, and system

A cutting apparatus including a cutting unit on which a cutting blade is detachably mounted, a control unit for controlling the cutting unit, and a blade case holder for holding a blade case for storing the cutting blade is provided. The blade case is provided with an IC tag allowing reading and writing of use history information of the cutting blade. The control unit is connected to a read/write unit for reading the use history information from the IC tag of the blade case held by the blade case holder and writing the use history information to the IC tag. The use history information read from the IC tag by the read/write unit is reflected in processing conditions for a workpiece to be processed, and the use history information after processing of the workpiece is written to the IC tag by the read/write unit.

Blade holder for cutting apparatus and blade use history storage device

A vehicle body component mounting system is provided with, along a conveyance path for a vehicle body, an upstream component mounting work area using a cell production system, a central component mounting work area in which the vehicle body is conveyed by an overhead conveyor, and a downstream component mounting work area using the cell production system in this order. Components other than principal components are mounted to the vehicle body using the cell production system. The cell production system is adaptable by increasing the number of component boxes, and thus an increase in the length of the line is prevented. The increase in the length of the line is prevented by using a line production system as a base and also using the cell production system as a part thereof.

A flush control apparatus controls a Set Associative cache memory apparatus. A flush control apparatus includes: a tag memory unit associating a tag identifier identifying a tag which associates a plurality of cache lines and tag information representing whether or not the tag is valid. It also includes a line memory unit, a way specification unit and a flush unit which flushes the way specified by the way specification unit.

Flush control apparatus, flush control method and cache memory apparatus

To provide an inexpensive cell incubator for a single cell operation supporting robot having the markers (first and second feature points) required to transform the position of a cell detected on a table coordinate system into a position on the intrinsic coordinate system of the cell incubator. First and second feature points are formed on a film-like feature point setup chip which is then stuck to the cell incubator body such as a conventional dish, thus constituting a cell incubator. Since manufacture of a new die for forming the first and second feature points directly on the cell incubator body is not required, an inexpensive cell incubator for a single cell operation supporting robot can be provided.
