It is intended to provide an image forming apparatus and image forming method capable of obtaining a comparatively high-quality image output even under a correction mode that gives preference to processing time required for correction, and capable of suppressing interruption of image formation to the utmost under operational condition such that internal temperature changes continuously. There are saved last five detections of positional shift quantity under first correction mode that gives preference to correction accuracy for each temperature band. Under second correction mode that gives preference to processing time required for correction, there is calculated a difference of a value actually obtained through measurement and an average value of data history belonging to a target temperature band (#7 through #9). Furthermore, the difference is multiplied by a reliability coefficient of main scanning direction and that of sub scanning direction, respectively, to determine correction quantity (#10, #11). Thereby, excessive change of correction quantity is prevented.

In a printing apparatus using a printhead having an array of printing elements in which a plurality of printing elements are arranged in a predetermined direction, the printing apparatus performing printing by scanning the printhead over a printing medium in a direction crossing to the predetermined direction on the basis of information transmitted from a host apparatus, print data transmitted from the host apparatus is stored in a buffer, printing by the scanning is started when the print data stored in the buffer reaches a first amount that is smaller than an amount of print data to be printed on the printing medium by the printhead by one scanning, the scanning is interrupted when storage of the print data in the buffer is delayed during the scanning, and when, after the interruption, subsequent print data stored in the buffer reaches a second amount, the interrupted scanning is executed to complete printing by one scanning. Accordingly, with an inexpensive arrangement having a memory whose capacity is smaller than the data amount to be printed by one main scanning, interruption of printing / scanning can be suppressed, and even when printing / scanning is interrupted halfway, high-quality printing can be performed.

An electronic device having a plurality of antennas and a plurality of communication modules with a communication function for sending and receiving data by simultaneously using the antennas comprises an antenna selecting switch for selecting a connection of the antennas to the communication modules and a judging circuit for controlling the antenna selecting switch by determining whether or not to connect the antennas to the communication module in operation with reference to an LED output signal outputted from each communication module to turn on or off an LED for an external indication of the operating state.

The present invention comprises, in order to allow recognition of content of information indicated in a medium accurately, based on an image data obtained by reading a medium, an extraction unit for extracting each of plural information items from an image data obtained by reading a medium in which each of plural information items satisfying a predetermined relationship is indicated in plural areas, a recognition unit for recognizing content of each of plural information items, and a confirmation unit which evaluates whether or not content of plural information items recognized by the recognition unit is correct based on the predetermined relationship, and confirms content of plural information items as recognized by the recognition unit if correct, and executes correction of recognition content recognized by the recognition unit if incorrect, based on the predetermined relationship, to confirm content of plural information items.

Video processing apparatus and method including a process for switching a 2D program and a 3D video program. The method has the steps of, for example: inputting a 3D video signal and a 2D video signal; discriminating whether the video signal which is inputted is the 3D video signal or the 2D video signal; and converting a clock frequency of the video signal which is determined as a 2D video signal.

An information processing device includes a controller configured to acquire information relating to a current position of a terminal from the terminal, transmit first content data to the terminal when the current position of the terminal is within a communication range of first wireless communication, and transmit second content data, which has a data size transmittable within a predetermined time even though second wireless communication having a speed lower than the first wireless communication, transfers information with the same effect as a content of the first content data, and is different in transfer method of the content from the first content data, to the terminal when the current position of the terminal is outside the communication range of the first wireless communication.

An AV amplifier (signal processing device) includes a DSP that performs predetermined processing on a digital audio signal inputted thereto, a D / A converter that converts the digital audio signal intoan analog audio signal, and a controller that sets a clock frequency of the DSP in accordance with a predetermined sampling frequency at the time of turn-on. Upon reception of a digital audio signalhaving a sampling frequency which is different from the clock frequency, the DSP adds a silent signal corresponding to a predetermined time to a head of the digital audio signal inputted thereto. Thesignal processing device can prevent generating noise when the setting of the signal processing device is changed, inhibit the interruption of the starting part of the sound and inhibit the complication of the circuit arrangement.

A cable fixing structure of a fuel cell stack fixes together a connector housing containing a substrate and a flat cable joined to the substrate. The cable fixing structure includes a fixing part provided for the connector housing, and having a convexly curved surface, and a heat contraction tube configured to surround the flat cable and the fixing part, and press the flat cable against the convexly curved surface.

A battery pack includes: a plurality of cell stacks; a housing case configured to house the plurality of cell stacks; and a support member configured to allow a rear cross member provided in a vehicle to support the housing case, the housing case including a rear portion directed to a rear side of the vehicle in a mounted state in which the battery pack is mounted on the vehicle, the support member extending in an up-down direction and being fixed to the housing case from an outer side of the housing case so as to face the rear portion.
