Abstract: System and method for adjusting side mirrors capture, by a primary camera, a facial image of a driver; estimate a 3D eye location with respect to a 3D coordinate of the primary camera based on the captured facial image; map the estimated 3D eye location to a respective set of pitch and yaw of the side mirror based on a look up table; and rotate the side mirror to a target position in accordance with the respective set of pitch and yaw. The lookup table includes a plurality of rows, each containing a pair of a key and a set of values. The key is a set of three parameters of 3D line of locations where the driver can observe an optimal view behind the vehicle, and the set of values includes a set of pitch and yaw of the side mirror corresponding to the 3D line of locations.

Abstract: A method for adjusting a side mirror of a vehicle includes capturing, by a primary camera provided in front of a driver of the vehicle, a facial image of the driver; estimating a 3D eye location with respect to a 3D coordinate of the primary camera based on the captured facial image; mapping the estimated 3D eye location to a respective set of pitch and yaw angles of the side mirror based on a lookup table; and rotating the side mirror to a target position in accordance with the respective set of pitch and yaw angles. The lookup table includes a plurality of rows, each row containing a pair of a key and a set of values. The key is a 3D eye location, and the set of values includes a set of pitch and yaw angles of the side mirror corresponding to the 3D eye location.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a method for energy-saving air conditioning control via QR (Quick Response) code. The system and the method for air conditioning control according to the present invention using a QR code generated in the vicinity of a location of an air conditioning apparatus or a group of air conditioning apparatuses corresponding to a predetermined space to be cooled. To control the air conditioning apparatus or the group of air conditioning apparatuses, the user needs to be at the position where a QR code is attached to scan the QR code combined with a valid user identifier to access an air conditioning control interface with one or more than one predetermined air conditioning control mode corresponding to the air conditioning apparatus or the group of air conditioning apparatuses associated with said scanned QR code.

Abstract: A storage apparatus for food has a food receiving module which has a bottom wall and opposing side walls. Mounting supports are provided for attaching the storage apparatus to a household appliance component. The food receiving module is movably coupled to the mounting supports, and the storage apparatus has a tilt device, with which the food receiving module can be tilted relative to the mounting supports about a tilt axis. The tilt axis is arranged in a central longitudinal third of the length of the food receiving module measured in the depth direction of the storage apparatus.
