According to one of embodiments, a method and apparatus for reproducing video and audio changes a playback speed for video and a playback speed for audio independently of each other. To provide an apparatus and method for controlling the playback speeds shortly before a period in which the video and audio should better be played back at a normal-speed, thereby to reduce the strange feeling the user may have as the playback changes from the high-speed playback to the normal-speed playback, a video signal and an audio signal are first isolated from a content and then demodulated. A playback speed is set for the video signal modulated, and a playback speed is set for the audio signal modulated. The video signal and the audio signal, each set to a playback speed, are output.

A controller of a driver for a vehicle comprising an uphill driving force control means for increasing the driving force of a vehicle such that an acceleration of vehicle substantially equivalent to that at the time of traveling on a flat road can be attained even if the output request amount during uphill traveling is substantially equal to that during flat road traveling, in which a strange feeling being imparted to an operator during uphill traveling is suppressed. Since start of uphill driving force control by the uphill driving force control means (130) is delayed by a delay control means (131) until a decision is made by a first predetermined period judging means (134) that period (T) exceeds the first predetermined period (T1) in which acceleration difference (G') between the reference vehicle acceleration (G) and the actual acceleration is no less than the predetermined uphill judging threshold (alpha), wherein, a vehicle driving force (F) does not increase even during uphill traveling controlled by the uphill driving force until the first predetermined period (T1), thus a strange feeling being imparted by the decreasing of a predetermined acceleration (G) to an operator during uphill traveling is suppressed.

Achieving a configuration that reduces the artificiality to give a strange feeling about the viewpoint of the user displayed on the display unit appearing different from the actual viewpoint. Photographed images from a plurality of different viewpoints are input to generate a plurality of virtual viewpoint images, and then, the plurality of virtual viewpoint images is combined to generate a combined image to be output on a display unit. The virtual viewpoint image generation unit generates a plurality of user viewpoint-corresponding virtual viewpoint images each corresponding to each of viewpoints of each of a plurality of viewing users viewing the display unit, while the image combining unit extracts a portion from each of the plurality of user viewpoint-corresponding virtual viewpoint images in accordance with a relative position between the viewing user and the display unit, and combines the extracted image to generate a combined image. The combined image is generated by extracting a display region image located at a front position of the viewing user at the viewpoint corresponding to the virtual viewpoint image from among the user viewpoint-corresponding virtual viewpoint images corresponding to individual viewing users.

A control device (50) for an electrically rotated shovel, in which a rotation speed factor is created according the condition set by a fuel dial (13) or the condition selected by a mode change switch (14), and the magnitude of a target speed command value is varied to vary the rotation speed of a rotating body (4). As a result, when the speed of an engine is reduced by operation of the fuel dial (13) or the mode change switch (14), the rotation speed of the rotating body (4) can be reduced accordingly, and when the engine speed is increased, the rotation speed can be increased. This can provide drive comfort almost similar to that obtained when the rotating body (4) is rotated by an ordinary hydraulic system. As a consequence, even if a user changes a shovel from a conventional hydraulic shovel to this electrically rotated shovel, the user does not have a strange feeling.
