[Problem] To make it possible to stabilize the distance between an electrode needle and a prevention member for preventing an induced voltage from being generated in a workpiece. [Solution] A static eliminator 1 makes it possible, by using an electrically conductive plate 6 (front prevention member) of each of a plurality of needle cap members 3 that are provided to the front side Df(+) (needle tip direction) of an electrode needle 33, to prevent an induced voltage from being generated in a workpiece. Moreover, by providing a plurality of electrically conductive plates 6, each electrically conductive plate 6 can be formed to be short in a width direction Dw. Therefore, bending of the electrically conductive plates 6 is suppressed, and the distance between the electrically conductive plates 6 and the electrode needle 33 can be stabilized.

Abrégé

The problem is to prevent external leakage of images captured by a camera when using a camera mounted on a portable information terminal for imaging of image processing targets. The solution means that the security mode deletes the code image Ic generated by the rear camera 33 from the volatile memory 61 without storing it in the non-volatile memory 62 (step S604 in FIG. 6D). In the security mode, instead of this operation, a step of forcibly deleting the code image Ic stored in the non-volatile memory 62 from the non-volatile memory 62 may be executed. With this configuration, by selecting the security mode, the code image Ic generated by the rear camera 33 is deleted, so there is no leakage to the outside.

A user instruction in a natural language format by the user is input to an LLM 12 (machine learning model) that has learned natural language processing. Accordingly, the LLM 12 can grasp the meaning of the user instruction. Further, rule information for describing a scenario in a general-purpose programming language is input to the LLM 12. Accordingly, the source code corresponding to the meaning of the user instruction can be appropriately generated based on the rule information. That is, it is possible to input the appropriate prompt for the purpose of the scenario generation to the LLM 12 in the mode easy for the user.
