Abstract: An inner electrode formed inside a dielectric body and a surface electrode formed on a surface of the dielectric body. The surface electrode is formed in a grid pattern with pointed parts formed inside the grid section. Each pointed part is in the shape of a triangle whose vertices are two arbitrary points on a side of the grid section and an arbitrary point inside the grid section, or a quadrangle whose vertices are a crossing of grid lines, an arbitrary point near a straight line connecting crossings of grid lines in the diagonal positions, and two arbitrary points on sides of the grid section. An ion generating element is formed which can generate positive ions and negative ions. The ion generator can be used in an air conditioning apparatus, cleaner or refrigerator.

Abstract: A semiconductor rectifier includes an intermediate semiconductor region (29) extending between anode (9) and cathode (7) contacts. A trenched gate (19) with insulated sidewalls (15) and base (17) can deplete the intermediate region. However, a shield region (23) acts to shield the intermediate region (29) from the gate (19) to allow current to flow in dependence on the polarity of the voltage applied between anode and cathode contacts (9, 7).

Abstract: This invention is a digital still camera having a coded data quantity monitoring
circuit (9). This monitoring circuit (9) detects the quantity of data of an image signal
compressed by a JPEG compression circuit (7). When a CPU (10) judges that the
quantity of data detected by the coded data quantity monitoring circuit (9) is equal to
or more than a maximum coded data quantity S, first, an image pickup element (3) is
caused to pick up an image of an object again and output a different image signal, and
a quantization table to be used in a quantization circuit (21) is changed. Next, the
different image data is compressed by being DCT-transformed by a DCT circuit (20),
then quantized by the quantization circuit (21) and coded by a coding circuit (22). The
compressed different image signal is recorded to a memory card (13). In this case, the
different image signal is recorded into an area where an image signal has been
recorded in advance on the memory card (13).

Title: Robot apparatus, face recognition method, and face recognition apparatus
Inventor: YOKONO JUN
IPC: G06K9/00
Filed: 2002-08-21
Abstract: A robot includes a face extracting section for extracting features of a face included in an image captured by a CCD camera, and a face recognition section for recognizing the face based on a result of face extraction by the face extracting section. The face extracting section is implemented by Gabor filters that filter images using a plurality of filters that have orientation selectivity and that are associated with different frequency components. The face recognition section is implemented by a support vector machine that maps the result of face recognition to a non-linear space and that obtains a hyperplane that separates in that space to discriminate a face from a non-face. The robot is allowed to recognize a face of a user within a predetermined time under a dynamically changing environment.
