Abstract: There is provided a control circuit (10, 11) for
arithmetically processing at least one of focus-directional
and tracking-directional position error
signals, and adding the arithmetic operation result as
an input amount to a coil for driving in the opposite
direction. The control circuit (10, 11) produces such
a control signal as to cancel the effect of an
oscillation mode of an objective lens holder (16). An
output determination circuit (20) temporarily restricts
functions of the control circuit when the determination
circuit has determined that a disturbance component is
mixed in the position error signal. Thereby, even in
the case of slight displacement, the objective lens (3)
can be controlled independently in the focusing and
tracking directions while avoiding interference
movement in both directions.

Abstract: In a method for varying one or more print attributes of a print made from a digital image, a print attribute value is computed for the digital image based on a determination of the degree of importance, interest or attractiveness of the image and the resulting print attribute value is used to control a print attribute of the print made from the image. The print attribute value is derived from an emphasis or appeal value, wherein an appeal value is an assessment of each image taken by itself and the emphasis value is an assessment of each image in relation to other images in a group. In a typical embodiment, the print attribute is either the number of prints made of the image, the size of a print made from the image, or the magnification factor used for the image.

Abstract: In order to provide a filter structure for a
canister in which dust or the like in air is prevented
from sticking to the filter and being distributed over
the entire surface thereof, and accordingly, the filter
can hardly clogging so as to prevent lowering of the
purge volume of a canister due to an increase in
ventilation resistance, the dust filter 8 is formed in
a crescent-like shape, having, at a substantially
center thereof, a pipe hole 8a fitted on a pipe
extended to a filter chamber le, the filter chamber le
accommodating the dust filter 8 is formed in a
crescent-like shape substantially identical with that
of the dust filter 8 and the atmospheric port 1f is
communicated with the bottom side of the dust filter 8,
and accordingly, the atmospheric air flows by a large
volume around the pipe 7a so that the dust or the like
is likely to be accumulated around the pipe 7a, but the
opposite ends becoming narrow outward so that the flow
rate of the atmospheric air is become less. As a
result, the dust or the like can hardly be accumulated
so as to prevent the ventilation resistance of the dust
filter 8 from increasing, thereby preventing leakage of
evaporation fuel into the atmosphere. 
     Further, in a canister, in order to aim at
restraining the ventilation resistance of the filter
from being increased by dust sucked with air through
the atmospheric port, and at enhancing the mounting 
ability of the filter for restraining suction of the
dust, the atmospheric port 33 is formed in the upper
portion of a canister casing 31, dust sucked through
the atmospheric port 33 being caused to stick to the
lower surface of a dust preventing filter 34 while the
sticking dust is allowed to be dropped by vibration.
Further, the dust preventing filter 34 is held by a
filter holding member 35, and is then fitted in a
filter mounting chamber 39 defined in the canister
casing 31. Thereafter, an adsorbent side filter 36 is
secured. A temporary holding device A for temporarily
holding the filter holding member is provided in
the filter holding member 35 and the filter mounting
chamber 39.

Abstract: Electronic systems, such as automobile radios, portable and other computing devices, and global positioning system receivers, often require that a correct security code be inputted from a small memory card that is removably inserted into a card slot of the system before the system is rendered operable in total or in part, or before certain data can be retrieved. The same type of memory card is also used to store digital data that is utilized by the system in conjunction with its function that is enabled by the security code, such data cards being removably inserted into the same card slot as the card containing the security code. Alternately, both the utilization data and the security code are included on a single card. An example application is an automobile radio wherein data supplied by the second card are of music that is reproduced through the radio's audio system.
