  • Publication number: 20240119600
    Abstract: A video processing device includes a foreground region estimation unit that determines whether a pixel of an input image is a foreground or a background, and a blinking correction unit that determines, for a target pixel on which a foreground and a background have been switched, whether switching between the foreground and the background is a color change in the foreground or in the background by using a lookup table capable of determining whether switching is in the foreground or in the background from a temporal change of a pixel value, and corrects a result of determination as to whether it is the foreground or the background that has been performed for the target pixel in a case where the switching between the foreground and the background is the color change in the foreground or in the background.

  • Publication number: 20240112990
    Abstract: A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes a first preparation step, a second preparation step, a mounting step, a third preparation step, a placing step and a curing step. In the first preparation step, a first leadframe including an island part is prepared. In the second preparation step, a semiconductor element including an element obverse surface, an element reverse surface, a first electrode and a second electrode is prepared. In the mounting step, the semiconductor element is mounted on the island part with a first conductive paste interposed between the element reverse surface and the island part. In the third preparation step, a second leadframe including a first part, a second part, a frame part, a first connecting part and a second connecting part is prepared.

  • Publication number: 20240091916
    Abstract: A tool includes a socket and an attachment that includes a shaft portion. The shaft portion transmits torque to the socket. The socket includes a distal end face, a proximal end face, an accommodation hole that opens in the distal end face, and a connection hole that opens in the proximal end face and is connected to the accommodation hole. The shaft portion includes an outer peripheral surface provided with a first transmission surface for transmitting torque to the inner peripheral surface of the connection hole. The accommodation hole includes an inner peripheral surface provided with a second transmission surface for transmitting torque to threaded fastener. The accommodation hole forms an accommodation space capable of accommodating threaded fasteners in a row. The shaft portion includes, at a distal end, a contact portion, which contacts one of the threaded fasteners accommodated in the accommodation space.

  • Publication number: 20120168625
    Abstract: A millimeter wave imaging sensor includes a plurality of millimeter wave sensors disposed on one plane intersecting an incoming direction of millimeter waves emitted from a subject. Each of the plurality of millimeter wave sensors includes an antenna portion, a wave detection unit, a transmission path, and a shielding member. Adjacent millimeter wave sensors, among the plurality of millimeter wave sensors, are positioned according to outer peripheral shape of the shielding members of the adjacent millimeter wave sensors.
