Abstract: A surveillance monitoring method is provided, which includes: executing an algorithm using a camera to perform a first inference on recognition of an obstacle and recognition of a target; tracking at least one object using the camera to generate image information; performing a second inference on recognition of the obstacle and recognition of the target using a radar; tracking the at least one object using the radar to generate radar information; fusing the image information and the radar information to obtain a first recognition result; collecting environmental information using the camera or the radar, and forming a confidence level based on the environmental information, the first inference, and the second inference; and dynamically adjusting a proportion of the image information and the radar information according to the confidence level when fusing the image information and the radar information to obtain a second recognition result.

Abstract: A solid state drive includes: a processing circuit for receiving a read command from the host; a flash memory connected to the processing circuit; and a buffer connected to the processing circuit. An error check and correction method includes following steps. Firstly, a read data retrieved from the flash memory is verified according to a predetermined algorithm when receiving the read command. Then, the read data is outputted by the processing circuit when the read data has no uncorrectable error. Furthermore, a retry action is performed according to a retry table when an error of the read data is uncorrectable. A usage order of a plurality of algorithms is defined in the retry table.

Abstract: An air duct defines a first air vent and a second air vent at opposite ends thereof, respectively. The air duct includes a duct body and a movable plate. The duct body defines a through opening in a side thereof. The through hole intercommunicates an interior and an exterior of the air duct. The movable plate is mounted on the side of the duct body adjacent to the through opening. By moving the movable plate, the through opening can be changed between an open state and a closed state freely. An electronic device incorporating the air duct is also provided.

Abstract: An exemplary of an anti-vibration hard disk drive assembly includes a hard disk drive, a bracket containing the hard disk drive, a rack supporting the hard disk drive and the bracket, and an elastic structure disposed between the bracket and the rack. The rack includes a pair of rails supporting the bracket thereon. The elastic structure is disposed between the bracket and the pair of rails of the rack, whereby a vibration caused operation of the hard disk drive can be absorbed by the elastic structure.

Abstract: An exemplary side plate assembly includes a side plate and an elongated reinforcing member. The side plate includes a main portion and two mounting portions at two opposite sides of the main portion. The reinforcing member is arranged at a middle of a side of the side plate. Two ends of the reinforcing member are respectively connected to the two mounting portions of the side plate. An inner side of the reinforcing member abuts the main portion of the side plate.

Abstract: A fixing apparatus for securing an HDD, includes a carrier containing the HDD and a plurality of fixtures to secure the HDD in the carrier. The carrier includes a bottom frame and two opposite sidewalls connected to two opposite edges of the bottom frame. Each fixture includes a post and a cushion. The cushions are fixed in the sidewalls and abut against two opposite sides of the HDD. The posts are extended through the cushions and inserted into the two opposite sides of the HDD to hold the HDD spaced apart from the bottom frame and the sidewalls of the carrier.

Abstract: Chemical vapor deposition equipment includes a reactor, an adjustable pipe, and an exhausted pipe. The adjustable pipe includes a compressible body, a bushing, and a ring positioned at an end of the body for connecting with the exhausted pipe. The bushing is positioned inside the body, and an end of the bushing is connected to the reactor for preventing exhaust gas from remaining inside the body. In addition, the compressible body is monolithically formed. Therefore, exhaust gas will not leak from the body, which improves the quality of manufacture.
