A collision detection system for a vehicle has two collision load sensors, which are respectively positioned between a rear end surface of a bumper reinforce member and front end surfaces of two side members of the vehicle. Thus, a collision load at any position in a vehicle-width direction of a bumper of the vehicle can be appropriately detected.

A current detection circuit (18) detects that a drive current of the stator coil (2d) is exceeding a threshold value Ir. A rotation number detection circuit (17) detects that the number of rotations of a rotor (2a) is lower than a threshold value Nr. A computing part (20) outputs a PWM signal which switches a semiconductor switching element (3a) of the inverter circuit part (3). The computing part (20) changes the threshold values Ir and Nr in accordance with the PWM duty of the PWM signal determined in accordance with a pressed distance of a switch trigger (7) and detects a locked state of the motor (2) on the conditions that the motor current I is exceeding the set threshold value Ir and that the number of rotations N thereof is lower than the threshold value Nr.

A sound processing apparatus includes: sound image localization processing means for performing a sound image localization process on a sound signal to be reproduced; a speaker section placeable over an ear of a user and supplied with the sound signal to emit sound in accordance with the sound signal; turning detection means provided in the speaker section to detect turning of the head of the user; inclination detection means provided in the speaker section to detect inclination of the turning detection means; turning correction means for correcting detection results from the turning detection means on the basis of detection results of the inclination detection means; and adjustment means for controlling the sound image localization processing means so as to adjust the localized position of a sound image on the basis of the detection results from the turning detection means corrected by the turning correction means.

A mammography apparatus capable of obtaining a breast image having an optimum density with reduced burden on the subject. The apparatus includes a radiation irradiation section and an object table connected to an arm such that they face each other, and the breast compressed onto the object table using a compression paddle is imaged by rotating the arm by an arm rotation means according to the imaging direction. In the apparatus, the size of the breast is detected, and the position of a dose detector is moved along the side of the object table facing the chestwall of the subject according to the detected size of the breast and the angle of rotation of the arm when rotated by the arm rotation means.

Occurrence of a failure in a computer system is appropriately detected, and information required for removing the failure is automatically collected. A trace information collecting system of the present invention which collects trace information indicating the course of processing of a program comprises a history recording section for recording a history of run and stop of a target program for which the trace information is to be produced, a similarity calculating section for calculating a degree of similarity between a first operation pattern in which the target program ran and stopped at the last time and a second operation pattern in which the target program ran and stopped at the time before last when the target program, which once stopped, starts to run, a failure occurrence determining section for determining that a failure occurred when the target program ran at the last time on condition that the similarity calculated by the similarity calculating section is lower than a reference similarity, and a trace information collecting section for collecting the trace information from the target program in response to the determination that the failure occurred, wherein the trace information is not collected if it is determined that the failure did not occur.
