Abstract: The invention relates to a shaving device which comprises a shaving head (1) having at least one cutting blade (5) and two skin-supporting members (11, 13), said cutting blade comprising a cutting edge (7) extending perpendicularly to a shaving direction (X) of the shaving head, and said skin-supporting members, viewed in the shaving direction, being arranged, respectively, in front of and behind said cutting blade, and defining a contact surface (17) between the shaving head and a skin surface (53) to be treated. The cutting blade and the skin-supporting members are mounted to a sub-frame (9), which is coupled to a main frame (19) and can be displaced with respect to said main frame against a spring force (FS).  According to the invention, the main frame comprises two further skin-supporting members (21, 23) which, viewed in the shaving direction, are arranged, respectively, in front of and behind the sub-frame and extend substantially in said contact surface. As a result, a contact force (FC) between the skin surface and the skin-supporting members of the sub-frame and hence a skin curvature (w2) between the skin-supporting members of the sub-frame, i.e. at the location of the cutting member, is mainly determined by the value of said spring force and, accordingly, substantially independent of a pressure force (FP) exerted by a user to press the shaving head against the skin surface.

Abstract: In an image processor for synthesizing images that have
been taken by multiple cameras mounted on a vehicle, even if
any movable part of the vehicle has changed its state, the
synthesized image will have no unnatural part. A pixel synthesizer
receives the images that have been captured by the
cameras included in an imaging section and generates the synthesized
image by reference to a mapping table. Receiving a
signal indicative of the state of a movable part such as the
door or hood of the vehicle, a display mode changer disables
at least one of the cameras that is taking an image to be affected
by any change in the state of the movable part. For
that purpose, the changer rewrites mapping data stored on the
mapping table and thereby eliminates the image in question
from the synthesized image.

Abstract: A small dot or disk flip dot display element and a method of making a flip
dot display formed of such elements is shown where the disks or dots (24) flip
between an ON position showing a bright surface and an OFF position showing
a dark surface. The dots are flipped by electromagnets (36, 38) having poles (32)
with a first coil (36, 38) wound thereon for producing a reversible magnetic field
operating the flip dots. A second coil (40, 42) is wound on the poles in series with

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to acquire
3-dimensional image data that correctly express a structural
configuration of the subject by processing the projected image
data obtained by projecting the subject toward the plural angles.
A shape computing unit 260 calculates shape data which represent
a outline of the subject, using a plurality of 1st image data
of the subject obtained by projecting the subject toward the
plural angles. A distributing unit 220 generates gray-scale
density-distributions by spreading and distributing densities
shown in gray-scale image of the subject respectively within
angles along which said gray-scale image was captured. A second
integrating unit 240 generates 3-dimensional gray-scale data
which express the subject with the 3-dimensional image data,
by integrating a plurality of said gray-scale
density-distributions generated from a plurality of gray-scale
image captured from a plurality of angles. A first integrating
unit 280 integrates the shape data and 3-dimensional gray-scale
image. A data processing unit 300 generates 3-dimensional image
data by extracting only density that exists in perimeter of a
shape that the shape data represent, from the 3-dimensional
gray-scale data.
