Provided is an optically pumped atomic magnetometer that can separate and acquire magnetic information of spatially different places at the same time by one probe beam. The optically pumped atomic magnetometer includes a cell containing alkali metal atoms, a pump beam optical system introducing pump beams including circularly polarized light component to different locations of the cell, a probe beam optical system introducing a probe beam including linearly polarized light component to the cell, a detection unit detecting a signal reflecting a rotation angle of a plane of polarization of the probe beam after intersecting with the pump beams, and an information acquisition unit acquiring information related to a magnetic field intensity of each of the different locations from the detected signal. The pump beam optical system includes a modulation unit modulating the pump beams so that one of frequencies and phases of the pump beams is different.

Optically pumped atomic magnetometer and magnetic sensing method

A data processing apparatus to acquire a job from an external apparatus via a network and process the job includes a storage unit, a selection unit, and a processing unit. The job includes a data and setting information to process the data. The storage unit stores a plurality of processing modules. The selection unit selects a plurality of processing modules to be used in processing the data, from the plurality of processing modules, based on setting information included in the job. The processing unit causes the selected plurality of processing modules to sequentially perform processing on the data. In a case where processing is to be sequential performed by a first processing module and then a second processing module included in the selected plurality of processing modules, the processing unit inputs information processed by the first processing module into the second processing module.

Data processing apparatus, control method, and storage medium

An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire input data used to generate an image, a conversion unit configured to generate intermediate data by performing data conversion on the input data with a first data conversion filter activated as a first process, and to generate image data by performing data conversion on the intermediate data with a second data conversion filter activated as a second process different from the first process, and an output unit configured to output the image data.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and computer-readable storage medium

When it is detected that a file has been stored in a hot folder, an apparatus stands by for a predetermined period of time not to process the file based on settings associated with the hot folder. When the predetermined period of time elapses, the apparatus processes the file based on the settings associated with the hot folder.

Processing documents in a hot folder for printing

A document for variable printing and print settings including a conditional print setting that depends on metadata included in the document are received, information that is common between the conditional print setting and metadata included in the document is replaced with unique information, and printing is instructed using the conditional print setting and the document in which the common information is replaced with the unique information.
