Patent CA-2856818-A1 (CA)
Title: Signal analysis and generation of transient information
Inventor: ROSSATO LUCA
IPC: H04N19/80
Filed: 2012-11-23
Abstract: A signal processor receives settings information. The settings information specifies a setting of a given element for each image in a sequence of multiple images in which the given element resides. The signal processor also receives precision metadata specifying an estimated precision of each of the settings of the given element for each image in the sequence. Based on the settings information and the precision metadata, the signal processor generates a setting value for the given element. If the setting value produced for the given element is relatively stable, and thus likely a better representation of a setting for the given element than a current setting of the given element, the signal processor utilizes the generated setting value instead of the current setting for encoding purposes.

Patent CA-2880580-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SONODA YUTAKA
IPC: B60L11/18
Filed: 2015-01-28
Abstract: To suppress a decrease in the charging efficiency of a battery when a gap occurs between a power generation period and an energization period. A driver converts three-phase AC power outputted from a winding of each phase of a stator of a generator into DC power using a plurality of switching elements to supply the DC power to a battery. A control unit controls switching between an energized state and non-energized state of each of the switching elements. A position detection unit outputs a position detection signal indicating a position of a rotor of the generator. The control unit obtains a next estimation power generation period of the generator on the basis of the previous position detection signal and determines a next energization period of each of the switching elements on the basis of the estimation power generation period. The control unit judges start of the energization period on the basis of input of the position detection signal, and, if a period until next input of the position detection signal exceeds the energization period, during the period until the next input of the phase detection signal, the control unit has a maintenance period in which the switching elements are maintained in the energized state or non-energized state immediately before the period until the next input exceeds the energization period.
