  • Publication number: 20210274088
    Abstract: A low-resolution/high-framerate camera performs steady-basis imaging, and a server detects an area of a person, based on frame data from the low-resolution/high-framerate camera, and generates and outputs to a high-resolution/low-framerate camera imaging condition data. The high-resolution/low-framerate camera starts imaging based on the imaging condition data and outputs frame data to the server. The server performs trimming processing to extract from the frame data output from the high-resolution/low-framerate camera an area of a face of the person, recording of image data of the facial area, and sending of the image data to an external recognition device.

  • Patent number: 11108258
    Abstract: An electronic timepiece includes a secondary battery, a first power feeder, a second power feeder, and a processor. The first power feeder feeds power to the secondary battery. The second power feeder feeds power to the secondary battery at a current larger than a current fed by the first power feeder. The processor determines remaining power of the secondary battery based on different references that are a reference of when the first power feeder is feeding the power to the secondary battery and a reference of when the second power feeder is feeding the power to the secondary battery.

    Abstract: A display device includes at least one processor. The processor acquires a plurality of pieces of schedule information each including information of a starting time and information of an ending time. When first schedule information and second schedule information, respective periods of which at least partially overlap each other, each period ranging from the starting time to the ending time, exist, the processor selects one piece of schedule information out of the first schedule information and the second schedule information, based on the starting time or the ending time set to each piece of the first schedule information and the second schedule information. The processor executes display based on the selected schedule information.

    Abstract: A pointer controller includes at least one processor; and a display that includes a pointer. The at least one processor is configured to control the display so as to display an elapsed time, switching between (i) a first display mode for display of the elapsed time cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that inherits a previous display time and (ii) a second display mode for display of the elapsed time non-cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that does not inherit the previous display time. The movement of the pointer controlled by the at least one processor is such that the first display mode and the second display mode differ from each other in a way of movement that indicates how the pointer moves.
