Abstract

Thicknesses of a light control layer in measurement positions are within the range of 0.8 times to 1.2 times the median value of the thicknesses. In a characteristic curve obtained by measuring a change of a linear transmittance of visible light when a drive voltage applied to transparent electrode layers is changed, first voltage is a lower limit drive voltage in the range in which a change ratio of a linear transmittance is 0.5%/V or more, second voltage is an upper limit drive voltage, and a middle value is between the first voltage and the second voltage. The variance in the middle value is 35.0% or less. The variance is obtained by dividing a difference between the minimum value and the maximum value of middle values obtained from the characteristic curves of the measurement positions, by an average value of the middle values.

Abstract

At an initializing operation, if it is determined that an indirect transfer film has not been replaced before power-on if transferred sensor marks are detected while being conveyed from a supply spool to a winding spool, then the unused amount of the indirect transfer film is estimated on the ratio between the rotation angle of the supply spool and the rotation angle of the winding spool, if the unused amount is estimated to be 2% remaining amount alert threshold or more, positioning of the primary transfer is performed based on the last sensor mark among the sensor marks, and if estimated to be less than 2% it is determined that the unused amount is greater than an amount necessary for recording on the next recording medium unless an end mark is detected while the indirect transfer film is conveyed by predetermined image areas from the last sensor mark.

Abstract

This distance image capturing device comprises: a light reception unit that includes a plurality of pixel circuits each provided with a photoelectric conversion element, a charge storage unit, and a transfer transistor, and also includes a pixel drive circuit that divides and stores charge in the charge storage units at a prescribed storage timing synchronous with irradiation of a light pulse; a light source unit that irradiates the light pulse; and a distance image processing unit that measures, as a measurement distance, the distance to a subject on the basis of the amount of charge stored in each of the charge storage units. Prior to measuring the distance and without the light pulse being irradiated, the distance image processing unit detects, at the storage timing and on the same cycle as when irradiating the light pulse, interference light on the basis of the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the amounts of interference charge stored in each of the charge storage units. If having detected the interference light, the distance image processing unit changes the timing of irradiation of the light pulse and the storage timing to measure the measurement distance.
