Patent number: 9728075Abstract: The present invention discloses a distributed automatic notification method for abnormality in remote massive monitors. If a data stream is not available, a disconnect prompt stream is generated. The data stream is converted to a continuous video. Then, the continuous video is divided into a plurality of single-frame images along the time axis, and each single-frame image is divided into a plurality of image grids. A plurality of pixels are next selected from each image grid. According to a plurality of image parameter values corresponding to the plurality of pixels, a statistical value of image grid parameter is calculated. Then whether an image grid is monochromatic can be judged according to the statistical value of image grid parameter. When a plurality of continuous single-frame images are judged to be monochromatic single-frame images, the color of the monochromatic single-frame images can be further judged.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2015Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: National Applied Research LaboratoriesInventors: Yun-Te Lin, Yung-Hsiang Huang, Sheng-Wen Wang, Jih-Sheng Chang, Yi-Hao Hsiao, Fang-Pang Lin

Publication number: 20070149675Abstract: The invention discloses a fire resistant composite material comprising inorganic particles well dispersed in a polymer having reactive functional groups. The inorganic particles also contain reactive functional groups, originally or after surface modification, that can react with the corresponding reactive functional groups of the polymer to form organic/inorganic composite materials. When the composite material is burned or under fire exposure, the polymer forms a char layer and the inorganic particles radiate absorbed heat. The inorganic particles also strengthen the mechanical properties of the structure through the reaction between inorganic and organic materials, so that the formed char layer is firm and can maintain its structural integrity without peeling off or cracks, effectively preventing direct heat transferring into the interior parts. The fire resistant material is not only flame retardant but also protective toward the interior materials.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2006Publication date: June 28, 2007Inventors: Yung-Hsiang Huang, Chih-Ming Hu, Chei Kao

Patent number: 7099734Abstract: A method of evaluating a product for use on a body used to develop a preferred product configuration using a computer-based virtual product development and testing system. A virtual wearer sub-model is created of the body and a virtual product sub-model is created of a product for use on the body. An environment sub-model is generated so that environmental factors affecting the product or the body are also used in designing or evaluating the product. Instructions defining how the wearer sub-model, the product sub-model and the environment sub-model interact are introduced in an interaction model. The sub-models and the interaction defined by the interaction model are then combined to create a virtual use model simulating the use of the virtual product sub-model by the virtual wearer sub-model. The use model determines the forces, deformations and stresses caused by movement and interaction between the virtual wearer sub-model and the virtual product sub-model using numerical method analysis.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2003Date of Patent: August 29, 2006Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: Christopher M. Pieper, Garry Roland Woltman, Sara Jane Wille Stabelfeldt, Yung Hsiang Huang, Deanna R. Kathumbi-Jackson, John E. Kerins
