  • A field-sequential color projection system can display color images using panel. However, it suffers from a characteristic trichromatic separation known as "color breakup". The viewing of images exhibiting color breakup may cause visual fatigue and mental stress. In this study, the authors examine, from the standpoint of human factors, the objective and subjective symptoms that can result from the viewing of images with color breakup.

  • This paper proposes an adaptive pricing system with scheduling to balance the demand for contents and to realize an effective use of resources in contents delivery networks. In the proposed adaptive pricing system, the table of the service levels and prices (tariff) is shown to each user at the start of service and each user chooses one of the service classes. These prices are decided adaptively reflecting the congestion state of the networks. Then, by the proposed scheduling algorithm, these requests are scheduled so as to keep the service level agreements completely.

  • This paper presents ergonomic approaches to editing and evaluating content for 3D displays. Two systems, a nonlinear editing system and an evaluation system, were developed to improve viewing safety and comfort for 3D content observers and provide better usability for the creators from the viewpoint of ergonomics.

  • A number of systems have several on-chip memories with cache memory being one of them. Conventional cache memory consists of SRAM but the ratio of static energy to the total energy of the memory architecture becomes larger as the leakage power of traditional SRAM increases. Spin-Torque Transfer RAM (STT-RAM), which is a variety of Non-Volatile Memory (NVM), has many advantages over SRAM, such as high density, low leakage power, and non-volatility, but it consumes too much writing energy. This study evaluated a wide range of energy consumptions of a two-level cache using NVM partially on a mobile processor. Through a number of experimental evaluations, it was confirmed that the use of NVM partially in the two-level cache effectively reduces energy consumption significantly.

  • This paper describes realtime walking based on sensory information. In this study, a biped robot having a trunk is considered. The motion of the trunk balances the whole body of the biped robot while the legs locomotes on the ground. How to calculate the motion of the trunk is proposed using the ZMP concept. Also, an online walking pattern is discussed which is generated in realtime on the basis of walking parameters selected by visual and auditory sensors. In order to realize biped walking, we have constructed a forty-three degrees of freedom biped robot, WABIAN-RV (WAseda BIped humANoid robot-Revised V). Its height is 1.89[m] and its total weight is 131.4[kg]. Various walking experiments using WABIAN-RV are conducted on the plane, and the validity of its mechanism and control is verified.
