Publication number: 20030090570Abstract: A front camera for filming an area stretching forwards is disposed in a front portion of a vehicle. A side camera for filming an area stretching laterally and diagonally forwards is disposed in a lateral-left portion of the vehicle. An indicator display that can be visually recognized by a driver is disposed in a compartment of the vehicle. An amount of change in the direction of the vehicle, that is, a deflection angle of the vehicle is detected on the basis of a vehicle speed and a steering angle of a steering wheel, which have been detected by means of various sensors. After the indicator display has started displaying a lateral photo image filmed by the side camera, the photo image displayed by the indicator display is shifted from the lateral photo image filmed by the side camera to a front photo image filmed by the front camera if the deflection angle has reached a predetermined angle.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2002Publication date: May 15, 2003Inventors: Makoto Takagi, Toshiyasu Katsuno, Kazushi Konno, Toshiaki Kakinami

Patent number: 6562147Abstract: A connecting material, which secures reliable joints without using flux, is disclosed. Soldering is performed using an auxiliary connecting material capable of physically destroying and dispersing an oxide film, which is naturally grown on the surface of a main connecting material such as solder or brazing between two terminals, to realize a reliable solder wetting (a state of the main connecting material being fused and mixed). For an auxiliary connecting material, hydrocarbon such as n-tetradecane (C14H30), for example, can be used. N-tetradecane boils between connection surfaces and cubically expands; energy generated therefrom physically disperses the oxide film and causes a fresh surface to be exposed; solders on both terminals are mixed; and an electrical and mechanical joint is securely achieved. The residue of the auxiliary connecting material is an insulating material, and therefore does not need cleaning.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2001Date of Patent: May 13, 2003Assignee: Denso CorporationInventors: Toshihiro Miyake, Koii Kondo, Takashi Kurahashi, Nozomu Okumura, Makoto Takagi

Publication number: 20030080877Abstract: A back camera image from a back camera mounted on a rear portion of a vehicle body is displayed on a display mounted on the console inside the vehicle cabin when the vehicle is parallel parking. After the vehicle passes a steering direction reversal point in this state, a corner camera image from a corner camera mounted on a corner portion of a front portion of the vehicle body is displayed on the display when the vehicle nears a vehicle parked in front, or, more specifically, when an angle of the vehicle after it has reached the steering direction reversal point has reached a predetermined value. Guidance images may be overlaid upon the camera images during some or all of the parallel parking maneuver.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2002Publication date: May 1, 2003Inventors: Makoto Takagi, Toshiyasu Katsuno, Kazushi Konno, Toshiaki Kakinami, Yosifumi Iwata

Patent number: 6529791Abstract: Candidate locations in which each of the components is to be placed are assumed. Initially, all the cells on a printed circuit board are the candidates. The range of candidates for the location of each component is narrowed down in some way (for example, the farthest cell from a fixed component is excluded from candidates for the location in which a component that directly relates to the fixed component is to be placed). An approximation problem is created from an original placement problem and a solution that optimizes the approximation problem is find. This solution is a feasible solution of the original placement problem as well. The process of narrowing down the candidates and solving the approximation problem is repeated until one candidate (or more than one candidate having an equal evaluation value) is found ultimately to determine the placement of the component.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2000Date of Patent: March 4, 2003Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Makoto Takagi
