An apparatus includes a housing defining a chamber in which an electric field is generated, and an internal member provided in the chamber. At least one part of the internal member is formed of a dielectric material. A process is executed in the chamber so that a dielectric deposit is formed on the at least one part of the internal member. An m1(d∈1 / dm1) value of the dielectric material and an m2(d∈2 / dm2) value of the dielectric deposit are set so that production of particles from the deposit is properly controlled. The term m1 is a mass density of the dielectric material, ∈1 is a permittivity of the dielectric material, m2 is a mass density of the dielectric deposit, and ∈2 is a permittivity of the dielectric deposit.

An apparatus, method, system, and article of manufacture provide the ability to process image data in a computer system. A user-operable representation of at least one image-processing function is configured with an adjustable opacity. The user-operable representation is created and processed as a three-dimensional object. The opacity of the representation is adjusted in response to user input. The representation is ten blended with image data to generate blended image data that is output to a display.

Web control validation may be defined using one or more declarations that are included in an ASP+ file by the web page author. The declarations specify server-side objects that validate the input data received in the web page and provide error handling in the event of a validation failure error. Validation declaration parameters specify the validation criteria against which the input data is validated. Example validation operations involve regular expressions, required fields, data comparison, range comparison and custom validation. Validation parameters can also specify either server-side validation or client-side validation, depending on the client browser's capabilities. In a server-side scenario, a server-side validation object processes the input data received in an HTTP request from the client. In a client-side scenario, a server-side validation object renders the appropriate client-side code to validate the input data without a round trip between the client and the server.

An image-capturing device and method for removing strangers from an image are described. First, a first image is input. Then, a control module determines if an unwanted object processing step is needed, and obtains a result. If the result is no, the first image is directly sent to an output module. If the result is yes, an image-identifying module begins to identify the target-image and the unwanted object in the first image, and then, an unwanted object processing module starts the step to process unwanted images. The unwanted object processing step can remove the unwanted object from an image and fill the left lacuna region. Afterwards, a second image is produced and sent to the output module.

There is disclosed an information managing method in which a plurality of information files are set as managing objects, the method includes (a) acquiring one or two classification standards which are standards to classify the information files, (b) selecting one of classification units of each of the acquired classification standards, (c) classifying the information files objects for each of the acquired classification standards and the selected one of the classification units, (d) producing a file object which represents each classified information file, (e) disposing and displaying the file object produced for each classification unit in another one-dimensional direction on a display screen, in a case where one classification standard is acquired, and (f) disposing and displaying the produced file object of the information file in each of two-dimensionally divided regions in a case where two classification standards are acquired.

An SCARA type robot comprises: an arm unit (14), whose one end is linked to a base (11) so as to be pivotable in a horizontal plane, and which is capable of horizontally bending and stretching; wrist portions (15a, 15b) which are linked to the other end of the arm unit so as to be pivotable in a horizontal plane, and to which finger portions (16a, 16b) to hold a tabular object (7) are fixed; and a driving means for the arm unit and the wrist portions, wherein the driving means can independently turn a pivotable portion which links the wrist portions and the arm unit, a pivotable portion which bends and stretches the arm unit, and a pivotable portion which links the arm unit and the base, so that the finger portions holding the tabular object can be moved along a plurality of nearly straight through routes which are virtually parallel to each other, and can cause at least one of the pivotable portions to make one turn or more. The SCARA type robot further comprises stoppers (21a, 21b) which limit the turn of the pivotable portions capable of making one turn or more to a prescribed pivotable angle after one turn is made. By this constitution, it is made possible to move the finger portions which are fixed to the wrist portions and hold the tabular object in the nearly vertical direction in relation to a front entrance of a target instrument, and to prevent a wiring and piping in the body and the arms from being twisted off due to the excessive turning.
