A method (500) and navigation system (100) are provided that generate a navigation route that is environmentally optimized between an origin and destination. Upon receiving an origination location and destination from a user or other source, such as a GPS satellite (104), a route determination module (302) determines multiple routes between the origination location and destination. An environmental analysis module (301) then processes each route to determine an environmental impact value. An evaluation module (303) then can selects a proposed route for presentation to the user via a presentation module (304). Alternatively, the evaluation module (303) may select two or more routes, which the presentation module (304) may present with corresponding environmental impact data such that the user may select a particular route. Additionally, a green coach module (306) may provide instructions to the user for more environmentally beneficial operation of a vehicle (102).

An information processing apparatus counts as a result the number of sheets output by an image forming apparatus with reference to collected job history information and obtains the amount of electric power consumed by the image forming apparatus based on the job history information. When the information processing apparatus generates display data required to display a screen indicating an emission amount of greenhouse effect gases, the information processing apparatus analyzes the number of sheets that is output if a saving setting is applied to a job corresponding to a history included in the job history information. The information processing apparatus generates the display data required to display the screen in such a way as to indicate an emission amount of the greenhouse effect gas obtained based on the analyzed number of sheets.

A hearing aid that analyzes a surrounding acoustic environment and automatically switches between a plurality of hearing aid processing reduces noise by limiting directionality, when the user is in a noisy outdoor location. However, in the case where directionality is limited to the front when the user is walking or the like, the user is put in extreme danger because he/she cannot notice sound of danger approaching from behind. Behavior analysis of identifying a walking state of the user is necessary in addition to environmental analysis, but typical walking detection using a sensor as in the case of a pedometer and the like is not applicable to a device worn at an ear such as a hearing aid. On the basis of an occurrence pattern of wind noise when walking, the walking state of the user is identified in the case where pulse-like wind noise occurs repeatedly. This enables walking detection to be performed using an existing structure, with there being no need to provide a sensor or the like. Hence, it is possible to provide a hearing aid that can be safely used even outdoors.

The invention relates to the technical field of a nano material, environmenta analysis and a sensor, in particular to a circulating-type water chemical oxygen demand detection photoelectrochemical sensor. The sensor consists of a thin-layer photocatalysis reactor based on an order titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanot tube array, a sample feeding system and a data collection processing system, and the chemical oxygen demand in a water sample is quantitatively detected by dynamically collecting and processing current response in the organic matter photocatalysis degradation process. Since a signal is sourced from the variation of the optical current produced in the process for photocatalyzing and oxidizing the organic matters by utilizing the nano TiO2 nanotube array, no any other strong oxidant is needed. A circulating-type water sample feeding way is adopted, so that the volume of the supporting solution is constant, a stable optical current signal is easy to obtain, the optical current response error caused by the instability for detecting the primary optical current at every time can be avoided, and higher sensitivity can be realized.
