Abstract: An image processing apparatus is disclosed which can provide a high-quality image by specifying an image corresponding to an image resulting from non-image forming light in image information obtained by taking an image of an object having a high brightness and conducting image processing to make the image difficult to recognize visually. The image processing apparatus processes image information which includes a first image component which was responsive to an image-forming light and a second image component which was responsive to a non-image forming light. The image processing apparatus has an image acquiring section which acquires the image information and an edge processing section which conducts edge processing with respect to the image information to distinguish the second image component with respect to the first image component.

Abstract: A light and small-sized gear type multi-stage automatic transmission capable of eliminating the power loss in comparison with a current automatic transmission and usable also for a large-sized vehicle by diversifying gears, wherein backward position, and a neutral position and several gear blocks for changing the shift between HIGH and LOW are combined to operate the transmission with the microcomputer operation. Since the gear for changing the shift between HIGH and LOW can provide the number of speed change by the number of grade of the number of the gears to be combined, the gear for changing the shift between HIGH and LOW can improve the fuel consumption and can cope with an engine brake by utilizing the combination of an electronic parking brake with the selection of the gear. In addition, since the same gear block is used, the manufacturing cost is remarkably reduced.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of properly correcting an image component corresponding to non-image-forming light and generated in image data or the like obtained when an object having high luminance is taking. The image processing apparatus processes image data including a first image component corresponding to image-forming light and a second image component corresponding to non-image-forming light. The image processing apparatus comprises an image-taking section which obtains the image data and a correction section which performs a correction processing for the image data so as to reduce the visibility of the second image component. The correction section performs a color conversion processing as the correction processing.

Abstract: A facilitated safe care steering device capable of preventing such problems with present transportation vehicles and working vehicles that, since these vehicles are formed to be excessively dependent upon the viewing, sensing, and judgement of drivers, these vehicles cannot be said to be able to cope with the physical decline of the drivers due to secular change, and a large number of serious accidents occur due to the physical decline, wherein the physical decline is mechanically and optically supported by recognizing the state of roads, traffic controls, and dangerous objects to the vehicles with a systematic recognizing method, and the vehicles carry a system for physically avoiding the accident when they actually encounter the accident to assure the safe traveling of the vehicles on the roads.

Abstract: In a magnetic printer, magnetic needles (5) are arranged in a row on the outer periphery of a holding plate (4, 15) to form a magnetic head producing a magnetic pattern corresponding to magnetic information. Further, in the printer, an ultrafine pigment magnetic powder-jetting pipe (3), a heating pipe (22), a cooling pipe (23), and a temperature measurer (24) are arranged close to one another at positions opposed to the magnetic head. An object on which printing is to be performed is passed between the magnetic head and each of the pipes and temperature measurer, so that the ultrafine pigment magnetic powder is fixed on the object at positions corresponding to the magnetic information. The ultrafine pigment magnetic powder-jetting pipe (3) is connected to a pigment-preparing device (8) for preparing the ultrafine pigment magnetic powder.

Abstract: Weight saving of industrial engines. Making pollution-causing material harmless. Improvement in thermal efficiency and reduction of operating cost. Arrangement To produce compressed air, air is pressurized by a turbo charger or a super turbo charger and stored in an air tank. The air is fed, at an optimum temperature and a given pressure, to a cylinder liner shortened according to the pressure. Valves for taking in and out air are hydraulically driven for individual opening and closing according to a computer-aided optimum valve timing diagram. The engine is controlled under high-oxygen high-temperature lean burn condition, and a hydrocarbon is injected into an exhaust manifold to reduce peroxides, thus making pollution-causing material harmless. Effects Reduction of operating cost. Increase in carrying capacity due to the weight reduction of the vehicle body in the case of a vehicle-mounted engine.

Abstract: [PROBLEMS] To more increase the capability of a vehicle despite the fact that mankind cannot catch up an increase in performance of the vehicle by forming the vehicle to give less damage to persons in the event of the accident of the vehicle and to minimize emission from the vehicle. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] The safety of occupants in the vehicle depends upon the degree of collapse of the vehicle at the time of collision. The non-pollution of the vehicle depends upon the speed to the design change of the vehicle to alter the specifications based on the latest technologies. For this purpose, a carriage allowing the easy design change must be developed. A structure allowing the easy change of the carriage portion of the vehicle has been developed.

Abstract: A full hybrid electric car capable of decreasing an environmental pollution and an operation cost as well as a production cost through an increase in heat efficiency of the engine of a vehicle and a reduction in weight of the vehicle, wherein an AC generator (2) is driven by a prime mover (1) to feed an electric power to AC motors (12) and the vehicle is run by the AC motors (12) installed on the wheels of the vehicle or supplementary driven by a DC motor (3) through gears, a steering structure is abolished by the adjustment of the rotational speed of the wheels, the motors of the wheels are controlled by detecting the intention of an operator on a gyrocompass and an accelerometer, or the upper limit values of the rotational speeds of the wheels are set for safety.
