Patent number: 10878555Abstract: An image processing system, an image processing device and a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium are provided. A collection condition setting part sets a collection condition for collecting processing information from the buffer area, an output format of the collected processing information, and an output destination of the collected processing information. The collecting part collects, among pieces of processing information temporarily stored in the buffer area, a piece of processing information that satisfies an image collection condition set by the collection condition setting part, and sends the collected processing information to the output part. The output part outputs the sent processing information according to an image collection rule set by the collection condition setting part. The condition setting part updates an image collection condition and an image collection rule stored in a storage condition DB on the basis of setting information input from an operation display device.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2018Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: OMRON CorporationInventor: Tsunehiko Araki

Patent number: 4912748Abstract: A personal body detecting device makes it possible to determine the presence and absence of a personal body in a detecting zone by sensing infrared rays in the zone with a plurality of infrared ray detecting elements, detecting at a discriminating means a peak level and output time in connection with respective outputs of the infrared ray detecting elements, and comparing them with each other. The personal body having reached the detecting zone in any direction thereto can be reliably detected, and a highly reliable detecting operation can be realized.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 1988Date of Patent: March 27, 1990Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Takashi Horii, Hiroshi Matsuda, Hidekazu Himezawa, Shinji Kirihata, Tsunehiko Araki

Patent number: 4849737Abstract: A person-number detecting system which comprises a detector for detecting infrared rays emitted from persons' bodies to generate an output signal while a scanning optical means circularly scans a visual field of the infrared ray detector, a means for amplifying the output signal of the detector, a means for converting it to a signal necessary for detection of the number of persons located within the field, a means for discriminating the number of persons on the basis of the converted signal, and a means for outputting person number information. The system can be made simple and inexpensive, while realizing a highly precise detection of the number of persons in a wide detection zone.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 1987Date of Patent: July 18, 1989Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Shinji Kirihata, Tsunehiko Araki, Yuuki Yorifuji, Takashi Horii, Hiroshi Matsuda, Hidekazu Himezawa

Patent number: 4656462Abstract: An object detecting apparatus has a plurality of light emitters which are sequentially actuated for projecting sequential light beams. A first structure is provided for receiving beams not reflected off any external body. A second structure is provided for receiving any part of the light beams reflected from an object in the area. A reference phase signal corresponding to the projected light beams is generated. A detection phase signal corresponding to the received reflected beam is also generated. The light emitters corresponding to the reflected light beams are continuously activated. The detection area is restricted by inhibition of output from an alarm phase difference discriminating circuit to a circuit when a difference between the reference and detection phases is not within a predetermined range. Consequently, the detection area can be restricted to a desired range, and the alarm circuit can be retained non-operative unless the object remains continuously in the area.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 1985Date of Patent: April 7, 1987Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Tsunehiko Araki, Hiroshi Matsuda, Kazuhito Kayanoki, Akira Nagaoka

Patent number: 4396840Abstract: An ionization type smoke sensing device includes a printed board. An inner electrode made of heat-resistant metal is attached to the printed board and a radioactive source is fixed to the inner electrode. An outer electrode in the form of a bottomed cylinder made of heat-resistant metal and adapted to cover the inner electrode extends through the printed board and is integrally joined to a protective lid member made of heat-resistant metal at the back of the printed board. Therefore, the outer electrode and the lid member cooperate with each other to define an ionization chamber. The outer electrode is formed with smoke inlet ports for introducing smoke into the ionization chamber. The electric circuit serves to give pulse signals of a relatively high voltage to the outer electrode and to detect the presence of smoke on the basis of the amount of a current flowing through the inner electrode.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 1980Date of Patent: August 2, 1983Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Tsunehiko Araki, Yoshihiko Okuda, Takeshi Nakano
