Patent number: 9275463Abstract: Provided is a stereo image processing device, with which it is possible to compute disparity with high precision even for an object of a small image region size in a baseline length direction. With this device, an image matching unit (102) acquires a correspondence point of a reference image for a target point of a target image. An image cropping unit (201) extracts first two-dimensional pixel data including the target point from the target image, and extracts second two-dimensional pixel data including the correspondence point from the reference image. An image reconfiguration unit (202) reconfigures the respective first two-dimensional pixel data and second two-dimensional pixel data into first one-dimensional pixel data and second one-dimensional pixel data. A peak position detection unit (104) computes disparity based on the correlation between the first one-dimensional pixel data and the second one-dimensional pixel data.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2012Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Takuya Nanri, Hirofumi Nishimura, Junko Ueda, Koji Arata

Patent number: 9205005Abstract: An absorbent article has a liquid-permeable top sheet of a white non-woven fabric, a liquid-impermeable back sheet opposing the top sheet, and an absorbent between the top sheet and the back sheet. A colored element is provided on the side of the top sheet that does not contact the skin, is visible through the top sheet, and is colored to a color other than white. The top sheet has protrusions and indentations in the thickness direction. The basic weight of the protrusions is greater than the basic weight of the indentations. The color difference between the Lab value of the color of the colored element visible through the protrusions of the top sheet and the Lab value of the color of the colored element visible through the indentations of the top sheet is 2.8 or more.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2011Date of Patent: December 8, 2015Assignee: UNICHARM CORPORATIONInventors: Kyo Kikuchi, Kei Wakasugi, Junko Ueda, Naoto Ohashi, Yasuhiro Yamanaka

Patent number: 9204050Abstract: An information displaying apparatus is capable of providing an easy-to-see display of information that the user wants to know out of information related to objects seen in a captured real-world image. The information displaying apparatus comprises an image input unit for inputting a captured real-world image. A distance acquiring unit acquires the distance between an object seen in the input captured real-world image and a view point of the captured real-world image. An object superimposing unit outputs an image in which information related to the object is superimposed on the captured real-world image. An information output control unit controls the information output by the object superimposing unit. The information output control unit decides, in accordance with the acquired distance, how to present the information outputted by the object superimposing unit.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2009Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Koichi Emura, Yasuaki Inatomi, Junko Ueda, Toshiki Kanehara

Patent number: 8449517Abstract: An absorbent article includes a rear waist region provided with a waist region elastic member attached thereto under tension. The waist region elastic member is formed with a plurality of slits each extending in a longitudinal direction and extending through the elastic member in a thickness direction thereof. The waist region elastic member is stretched in a transverse direction as the diaper is put on the wearer's body and thereupon the slits are opened up to form respective through-holes. A first graphics display region formed in combination with the slits includes note stems and note tails. Each of these note stems is contiguous to the associated through-holes. In the area nearer a crotch region than the first graphics display region, a second graphics display region is formed. The first and second graphics display regions cooperate to each other.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2009Date of Patent: May 28, 2013Assignee: Uni-Charm CorporationInventors: Junko Ueda, Koichiro Mitsui
