A robot hand according to embodiments includes a holding unit, a bottom end, an optical sensor, and a reflecting member. The holding unit holds a thin-plate-shaped workpiece. In the bottom end, its leading part is coupled to the holding unit and its tail part is rotatably coupled to an arm. The optical sensor is provided in the bottom end and has a projector and a photoreceiver. The reflecting member is provided in the holding unit. The reflecting member reflects light from the projector, makes it pass through the holding area of the workpiece, and makes it reach the photoreceiver to form an optical path.

A method of determining a recording power used to record information to an optical disc, includes carrying out test recording which records predetermined data to a predetermined area of the optical disc to determine the recording power, and recording predetermined data with a power equal to or more than the determined recording power to an area adjacent to the predetermined area.

A keyless entry device includes a plurality of antennas which receive high frequency signals, a high frequency receiver which reproduces data from the high frequency signals received by the plurality of antennas, an intermittent controller which changes over an operation of the high frequency receiver between a continuous operation and an intermittent operation in an interlocking manner with turning on or off of an ignition key of an automobile, and a data processor which outputs data as control signals, wherein when the ignition key is turned on, the keyless entry device is operated as the tire pressure monitoring device and when the ignition key is turned off, the keyless entry device is operated as the keyless entry device.

A front side surface of a cover glass of a solid state imaging device is focused, and a front side image is captured. Next, a rear side surface of the cover glass is focused, and a rear side image is captured. The front side image and the rear side image are combined with each other to create a composite image. A first threshold value is set for each pixel in the composite image by dynamic thresholding. An image composed of pixels whose gray values exceed the first threshold value is identified as a defect candidate image. The maximum gray value of the defect candidate image is multiplied by a constant rate to set a second threshold value. An image composed of pixels whose gray value is less than the second threshold value is eliminated as a blurred image from the defect candidate image. Thereby, only a spot defect image, an allowable defect image, and a stain defect image remain in the composite image.

An overcurrent protection apparatus for a load circuit can detect an overcurrent with a high accuracy without being influenced by a deviation ±ΔRon of the on-resistance of a semiconductor element (T1). Supposing that a ratio (R3 / R1) between a resistor R3 and a resistor R1 is an amplification factor m, a determination voltage generated by resistors R4, R5 is V4 and the average value of the on-resistance of a MOSFET (T1) is Ron, the overcurrent protection apparatus for a load circuit controls either a current I3 flowing through the resistor R3 or a current IR5 flowing through the resister R5 so that the output signal of a compactor CMP1 is inverted when a current having a value of (V4 / m / Ron) flows into the MOSFET (T1). For example, when the deviation ±ΔRon of the on-resistance has a positive value, either the current I3 is generated by subtracting a current proportional to the deviation ±ΔRon from a current I1 flowing through the R1 or the current IR5 is generated by adding a current proportional to the deviation ±ΔRon to a current IR4 flowing through R4. In contrast, when the deviation ±ΔRon of the on-resistance has a negative value, either the current I3 is generated by adding the current ΔI1 proportional to the deviation ±ΔRon to the current I1 or the current IR5 is generated by subtracting the current proportional to the deviation ±ΔRon from the current IR4.

A gaming machine includes a gaming table, antennas and a control unit. The antennas are arranged to placement areas formed on the gaming table. The antennas are employed to determine whether or not at least one gaming medium is placed on any of the placement areas. The control unit drives at least two antennas simultaneously so that a direction of magnetic field generated by one antenna is opposed to one generated by at least one other antenna adjacent to the one antenna.
