  • Publication number: 20240171834
    Abstract: A vehicular camera includes a first shield made of metal and disposed to surround a circuit board. The first shield includes a first bottom surface portion, a second bottom surface portion disposed to be separated from the first bottom surface portion, and a connection portion connecting an entire periphery of the first bottom surface portion and an entire periphery of the second bottom surface portion. At least a first side surface portion, a second side surface portion, a third side surface portion, and a fourth side surface portion of the first shield are formed by a contiguously curved surface, and at least the first side surface portion, the second side surface portion, the third side surface portion, the fourth side surface portion, the first bottom surface portion, the connection portion, and the second bottom surface portion are formed by a contiguously curved surface.

  • Publication number: 20240157960
    Abstract: An alert apparatus starts alerting a driver of a host vehicle, when an oncoming vehicle, that is an other vehicle traveling in an oncoming lane with respect to a traveling lane in which the host vehicle is traveling so as to approach the host vehicle and that is predicted to pass through on a specific direction side with respect to a current position of the host vehicle, is present, a turn signal indicator of the host vehicle corresponding to the specific direction side is being operated, and it is likely that the host vehicle starts turning to the specific direction side.

  • Patent number: 11954850
    Abstract: A medical information processing system according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry and a display. On the basis of one of the type of at least one abnormality detection algorithm to which a medical image related to an examined subject is to be input and information relevant to an abnormality detected by inputting the medical image to the abnormality detection algorithm, the processing circuitry judges whether or not urgency is present in a disorder related to the abnormality. When it is determined that the urgency is present, the display displays, in an examination list of examination orders, assessment information related to assessing the abnormality and urgency information indicating the urgency so as to be positioned adjacent to any of the examination orders related to the abnormality.

  • Publication number: 20070230816
    Abstract: A first setting section is operable to set a reference region in a first digital image. A calculating section is operable to calculate first pixel values of pixels in the reference region and second pixel values of the pixels in the reference region on which an averaging process which substantially averages the first pixel values is performed. A creating section is operable to create unevenness-feeling information indicating an unevenness feeling of the surface of an object expressed by the reference region on the basis of the first pixel values and the second pixel values. A second setting section is operable to set a target region in a second digital image. A giving section is operable to give the unevenness feeling to the target region on the basis of the unevenness-feeling information.
