Abstract: A defect image including a defect and a defect-free image not including a defect for an article different from an inspection article are acquired to teach an identifier when inspecting for a defect in the inspection article. The identifier that has learned the images is made to identify whether an extracted inspection image obtained by segmenting the inspection image of the inspection article includes the defect and the identification results of the identifier are used to determine whether a defect is present in the inspection article. When teaching the identifier the defect, the identifier is provided with, as learning images, a plurality of extracted defect images generated from the defect image by changing an extracting region for extraction from the defect image such that the defect in the defect image is at a different position in each of the plurality of extracted defect images.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate to an interaction system for a vehicle that can be configured by a user. For example, an interaction system for a vehicle can include an image capture resource to receive eye image data of a user. The interaction system for a vehicle can also include a processor to identify a direction of an eye gaze of the user based on the eye image data. The processor can correlate the eye gaze to a driving experience function (DEF), and the processor can transmit a DEF communication.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate to an interaction system for a vehicle. The interaction system includes one or more input devices configured to receive data comprising a characteristic of a driver of the vehicle. The interaction system also includes one or more output devices configured to deliver an output the driver. The interaction system also includes a human machine interface controller. The human machine interface controller receives the data and analyzes the data to identify an emotional state of the driver. The human machine interface controller generates the output based, at least in part, on the emotional state of the driver and sends the output to the one or more output devices. The output includes a simulated emotional state of the human machine interface.

Abstract: An augmented battery for providing power to a powered vehicle includes a case adapted for removably mounting on the vehicle that encloses: at least one cell disposed within the case that provides power to the vehicle; a power port supported by the case that is adapted to electrically couple the at least one cell to the vehicle; and a processor disposed within the case and having an associated memory that stores program code executable by the processor to selectively communicate through an electronic communication circuit.

Abstract: Sensors within the vehicle monitor driver movement, such as face and head movement to ascertain the direction a driver is looking, and gestural movement to ascertain what the driver may be pointing at. This information is combined with video camera data taken of the external vehicle surroundings. The apparatus uses these data to assist the speech dialogue processor to disambiguate phrases uttered by the driver. The apparatus can issue informative responses or control vehicular functions based on queries automatically generated based on the disambiguated phrases.

Abstract: A communication breaking device for breaking communication of an apparatus which communicates by modulation and demodulation using a predetermined code sequence. The predetermined code sequence is extracted from an incoming wave and an inverted-code generator inverts the code sequence into an inverted code sequence, which is transmitted as a communication breaking wave. The phase of the inverted code sequence is advanced before transmitting as the communication breaking wave and the pilot signal, can appropriately be compensated with the advanced inverted code sequence. It can be recognized by a portable telephone that the portable telephone is deviated from a communication area for the base station. A method includes compensating the code sequence in an incoming wave by transmitting a communication breaking wave.

Abstract: A base station 21 generates a spectrum-spread spread signal, and transmits up spread signals having different line frequencies to transmission antennas 22a and 22b on two channels, i.e., A channel and B channel, respectively. The up spread signals are subjected to predetermined individual processings by a specific identification card 31 and sent back as a down spread signal on an X channel. Therefore, the base station 21 receives the down spread signal thus sent back by a receiving antenna 23. If receiving the down spread signal, the base station 21 correlates a waveform of the already transmitted up spread signal as a reference waveform with the waveform of the down spread signal. Due to this, the base station 21 can count identification cards 31 which send back down spread signals on the X channel and measure distances from the base station 21 to the respective identification cards 31.

Abstract: A communication breaking device 20 causes a PN-code generator 38 and a delay correcting unit 40 to advance the phase of a PN code sequence extracted by a receiving antenna 21, wide-range amplifiers 22 and 26, a multiplier 24, a BPF 28, a carrier-wave detector 32, a divider 34, a synchronization trapping unit 36 and a PN-code generator 38. An inverted-code generator 41 inverts the PN code sequence into an inverted code sequence. The inverted code sequence is transmitted by a multiplier 42, an electric-power amplifier 44 and a transmitting antenna 47. The inverted code sequence, which is transmitted as a communication breaking wave, is formed into a code sequence in the form of inversion of a pilot signal conforming to CDMA system. Moreover, the phase of the inverted code sequence has been advanced. Therefore, the pilot signal, which is being propagated, can appropriately be compensated with the advanced inverted code sequence.
