Inventor: NIIMI YOSHIKAZU
IPC: B60R21/38
Filed: 2004-07-20
Abstract: An electronic control unit (30) detects a collision between a vehicle
and a pedestrian, a bicycle, or a motorcycle by use of a camera unit (22), a
bumper sensor (23), and left front and right front acceleration sensors (24,
25). In the event of a collision, the electronic control unit (30) activates
hood actuators (12 - 15) so as to raise a portion of a hood (11), thereby
protecting the pedestrian or a bicycle or motorcycle rider. In this case, the
nature of a collision between the vehicle and a pedestrian, a bicycle, or a
motorcycle is detected. In accordance with the detected nature of the
collision, the hood (11) is raised; specifically, a front or rear portion of the
hood (11) is raised, or the hood (11) is tilted along a moving direction of the
human struck.

Abstract: In view of the foregoing, an improved handheld electronic device includes a keypad in the form of a reduced QWERTY keyboard and is enabled with disambiguation software. As a user enters keystrokes, the device provides output in the form of a default output and a number of variants from which a user can choose. The output is based largely upon the frequency,  i.e ., the likelihood that a user intended a particular output, but various features of the device provide additional variants that are not based solely on frequency and rather are provided by various logic structures resident on the device. The device enables editing during text entry, and when initiating an activity session on a word such as during editing, the display outputs variants of the entire word being edited, rather than providing as variants only those parts of a word that are being edited. The device also provides a learning function that allows the disambiguation function to adapt to provide a customized experience for the user. In certain predefined circumstances, the disambiguation function can be selectively disabled and an alternate keystroke interpretation system provided. Additionally, the device can facilitate the selection of variants by displaying a graphic of a special <NEXT> key of the keypad that enables a user to progressively select variants generally without changing the position of the user's hands on the device.

Abstract: A method for selection of a transmission channel, for the transmission of messages (N) from a mobile terminal to a base station, is disclosed, whereby the terminal sends a send authorisation request signal (AP), for a particular transmission channel, to the base station and the base station sends a reply signal (AWS) with a first decision value (ACK, NACK). The terminal is thus signaled whether or not said terminal is authorised to send a message (N) on the requested transmission channel. On sending a first negative decision value (NACK), the base station sends a second positive decision value (ACK2) with the reply signal (AWS), when the terminal is authorised to send a message (N) on another transmission channel. On detection of a first negative decision value (NACK), the terminal analyses the reply signal (AWS) further for whether a second positive decision value (ACK2) is contained therein and which other transmission channels are available and hence sends the message (N) on one of the available transmission channels.
