  • Patent number: 8179471
    Abstract: A focusing device includes a distance information acquisition section acquiring information on a distance to a subject based on a plurality of image data acquired by taking images of the subject at a plurality of different viewpoint positions. A subject detection section detects a first area and a second area based on the distance information and threshold information for the distance range within which a subject of interest that obstructs a main subject in the subject is present. In the first area, the subject of interest is present in each of the plurality of image data. In the second area, the subject of interest is not present. A focusing estimation section estimates the focusing of the main subject based on the distance information on the second area in each of the plurality of image data.

  • Patent number: 5368081
    Abstract: Highly durable, lightweight tires of a pneumatic radial type for passenger cars are constructed with a tread portion having on its outer peripheral surface a plurality of grooves arranged circumferentially of the tire and a belt layer formed from an array of steel cords and disposed in the tread. Each of the steel cords results from twisting a selected number of steel filaments each of specified contents of C, Si and Ni and has a specified level of tensile strength. The distance of rubber from a bottom end of each of the grooves to an outer surface of the steel cord array is defined to be of a specified range as determined cross-sectionally of the tire.

  • Patent number: 5332017
    Abstract: Pneumatic radial tires for automotive use are constructed with a belt layer reinforced with a steel cord of a unique structure. The steel cord results from the preformation of a single steel wire into a spiral shape meeting specified spiral parameters as determined by specified spiral diameters, specified wire diameters and specified spiral pitches. Significant weight saving is attainable with sufficient driving performance.
