Abstract: A developing device is constructed by a developing
unit for developing an electrostatic latent image on an
image holding member (40), a developing agent containing
unit (3) for containing a developing agent which is
supplied to the developing unit, an agitator, provided
in the developing agent containing unit, for agitating
the developing agent, a detecting sensor for detecting
a residual amount of developing agent in the developing
agent containing unit, and a determining device for
determining the residual amount of developing agent at
a plurality of levels on the basis of an output state
of the detecting sensor in a predetermined time range.
The determining device determines the residual amount
of developing agent on the basis of a ratio of an
output time of a developing agent presence state of the
detecting sensor and an output time of a developing
agent absence state in the predetermined time range.
When a ratio at which the output time of the developing
agent presence state of the detecting sensor occupies
in the predetermined time range is equal to or less
than a predetermined value, the determining device
determines that the residual amount of developing agent
is small, and when the ratio is substantially equal to
0, the determining device determines the absence of
developing agent.

Abstract: Cameras 51, 52 take images of a predetermined area
around a door. A distance measurement unit 53 measures
the distance to each object in the taken images. Based
on the measured distance, a floor detection unit 54
detects a floor, and an object height/position
detection unit 55 detects the height and position of
any object other than the floor. A door position
detection unit 56 and the door position identification
unit 57 specify the position of the door (i.e. open or
closed) on the images. A judgement unit 58 judges the
presence or absence of an object which is neither the
floor nor the door. If an object other than the floor
and the door is observed in the images, an output unit
59 produces an object detection signal, so that the door
is kept in an open state.

Abstract: A graphics system comprises pixel calculation units and a sample buffer which stores a two-dimensional field of samples. Each pixel calculation unit selects positions in the two-dimensional field at which pixel values (e.g. red, green, blue) are computed. The pixel computation positions are selected to compensate for image distortions introduced by a display device and/or display surface. Non-uniformities in a viewer's perceived intensity distribution from a display surface (e.g. hot spots, overlap brightness) are corrected by appropriately scaling pixel values prior to transmission to display devices. Two or more sets of pixel calculation units driving two or more display devices adjust their respective pixel computation centers to align the edges of two or more displayed images. Physical barriers prevent light spillage at the interface between any two of the display images. Separate pixel computation positions may be used for distinct colors to compensate for color distortions.
