Inventor: HIGUCHI MIRAI
IPC: G05D1/02
Filed: 2007-02-26
Abstract: An imaging environment that greatly affects image recognition accuracy is recognized for applications in onboard systems of various sorts including imaging devices. 
     An imaging device for imaging areas around the vehicle is mounted on a vehicle. Before executing image recognition processing, information is acquired on objects and texture, such as traffic signs and pedestrian crossings, present within a field of view of the imaging device (3). An object or texture present within the field of view is then recognized by an image recognition section (17). Degrees of distortion and defocus of a shape or texture of the object recognized are calculated based on the shape or texture of the object recognized and information previously acquired on the objects or texture. Imaging environment, such as water droplets or dirt on a lens, and whether fog occurs or not, is then recognized based on the degrees of distortion and defocus calculated from the shape or texture of the object recognized.

Abstract: A method for protecting live content in a multimedia system. An Acquisition Point (120) that receives content (CNT) distributes it in a network (100) comprising a recording device (130) and a rendering device (110). The content is associated with a license (CL) comprising a content identifier and the identity (APID) of the sending Acquisition Point. If the content is live, the license indicates that the content is "live protected". A rendering device that receives the content and its license asks 208 the Acquisition Point indicated in the license if it may render the content. If the content is not live, e.g. if it is replayed later, the permission is given. The Acquisition Point also stores a counter that indicates the number simultaneous viewings. If this number equals a maximum number of viewings when a request is received, the Acquisition Point asks all devices if they access the content to check if its count is correct and, if not, permits access to the requesting device.

Abstract: Die simultane Gewinnung von Strom und Wärme in einem Element wird in einer besonders kostengünstigen Weise dadurch erreicht, dass einem flach konstruierten Photovoltaik-Modul ein Kühlelement von unten durch Anpressen oder Ankleben angefügt wird. 
     Erfindungsgemäß besteht dieses Element aus einem Metallblech, das in engem Kontakt mit einem wärmebeständigen schlauchförmigen Material gebracht ist, und zwar so, dass dieses sich im Fall des Einfrierens von darin befindlichem Wasser schadlos ausdehnen kann, ohne den Kontakt zum Wärme leitenden Blech zu verlieren. 
     Lösungsvarianten für die Gestaltung eines solchen Hybridkollektors sind die Verwendung einer omegaförmigen Sicke, oder das Einbringen des Schlauches in einen Hohlraum, der durch Anpressen seiner unteren Hülle, die auch als Wärmedämmung dient, an das Wärmeleitblech gebildet wird. Das Wasser bewirkt durch die Kühlung eine erhöhte Leistung der Solarzellen, und erwärmt dabei seinerseits einen Warmwassertank, der die abgeführte Wärme nutzbar macht. Als besonders geeignetes Schlauchmaterial ist Silikonkautschuk verwendbar, ein besonders geeignetes Dämmmaterial stellt gepresster Polyurethanschaum dar.
