Electrochemical measuring apparatus comprising enzyme electrode

Abstract: An immobilized enzyme electrode effective in measurement of the substrate concentration of the enzyme and in conversion from enzyme reaction energies into electric energies. The immobilized enzyme, of an oxidase system, such as glucose oxidase, amino acid oxidase, xanthine oxidase or the like and a metal oxide capable of constituting a redox system which is reduced through coupling with these enzyme reactions and is electrochemically oxidized (anodic oxidation) are combined with each other. The use of the enzyme electrode allows the determination quantity of the enzyme substrate as extremely low as approximately 10 -5 to 10 -6 mole/l in concentration.

Method for natural dialog interface to car devices

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and apparatus for processing a spoken request from a user to control an automobile device A speech recognizer recognizes a user's speech input and a speech understanding module determines semantic components of the speech input A dialogue manager determines insufficiency in the input speech, and also provides the user with information about a device in response to the input speech

User interface device

Abstract: There is a described a user interface device having first and second imaging means for forming first and second images of a three-dimensional zone from two different viewpoints, and image data generating means for generating image data corresponding to the first and second images. A processor determines the position of an object within the three-dimensional zone from the image data for the first and second images, associates the determined position with corresponding information and generates a data signal in accordance with the information corresponding to the determined position. In an embodiment, the user interface device is in the form of a virtual keyboard. In another embodiment, the user interface device is in the form of a tablet for handwriting recognition.

Semiconductor integrated circuit

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit having a logic circuit comprises a plurality of test input terminals for giving test signals to the semiconductor integrated circuit; test circuits for receiving the inputted test signals, and testing the logic circuit using the test signals; a test output terminal for externally monitoring an output signal of the semiconductor integrated circuit; and an exclusive OR circuit for receiving output signals of the test circuits; wherein an output signal of the exclusive OR circuit is output from the test output terminal.

Illumination control method and illumination device

Abstract: In an illumination control method of the present invention, illumination of an appreciation space is controlled in association with an image displayed on an image display device so that a realism of the image displayed on a screen of the image display device can be enhanced, where an appreciator appreciating the image is in the appreciation space. More specifically, one or more light sources provided in the appreciation space is controlled so that at least one parameter of a level, a light color, a luminous intensity distribution, and a direction of illumination to the appreciation space is made substantially coincident with a corresponding parameter of a virtual image space imaginarily created from the image displayed on the image display device.
