  • Patent number: 8325233
    Abstract: A video radar display system is provided. The video radar display system includes a camera array, an image processing unit, and a display unit. The camera array includes a plurality of cameras individually positioned for photographing a plurality of images from a plurality of different directions. The image processing unit receives the photographed images from the camera array for conducting an object recognition process, and referring to an object database to reconstruct an environment, so as to generate object display information. The display unit receives the object display information and displays an image according to the received object display information, or project the image to a monitor or head-up display for displaying. The cameras of the camera array are dual-lens cameras or tri-lens cameras. Specifically, the dual-lens camera has two lenses horizontally provided for capturing two images at the same time for determining the distance.

  • Patent number: 7808996
    Abstract: Disclosed is a packet forwarding apparatus and method for a virtualization switch, applicable to switch environments built by Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) connections. The packet forwarding apparatus comprises a header extractor, a dispatcher, and a forwarding unit. After completion of the authorization for iSCSI session connections, the header extractor receives iSCSI packets and extracts the headers for the iSCSI packets. The dispatcher decides the flow directions for the received packets. The forwarding unit forwards the packets between the client-side connection and the storage-side connection of the virtualization switch, including converting virtual addresses into physical addresses for the received iSCSI packets, building the mapping between the client-side interface and the storage-side interface, and delivering the payload associated with the connections.
