Abstract: A first guide rail (11), and a second guide rail (12) and a third guide rail (13) that are parallel to each other are installed on a base (2) so as to be perpendicular to each other, and these guide rails are rotated about shafts (4) installed on both ends. When the guide rails are rotated, an indication bar (3) installed on a rotor (1) is moved synchronously with the movement of the guide rails, so that the rotor (1) is also rotated. A slider (22) installed on the indication bar (3) slides along a slit (21) of the third guide rail (13). Then a rotation angle of the rotor (1) about the indication bar (3) is determined by the distance between the guide rails.

Abstract: Piezoelectric elements (1) are overlapping on a stator (11) in the same direction as shown in FIG. 3. Since a fixed end (6) of a piezoelectric element (1) is fixed to a foundation (4), an open end (7) of the piezoelectric element (1) elongates in the direction opposite to the foundation (4) when a voltage is applied to the piezoelectric element (1). When a drive device (12) generates a saw-tooth wave shown in FIG. 4(a), the piezoelectric element (1) rapidly elongates or slowly shrinks. A slider (21) then moves while being flicked away by the piezoelectric element (1). On the other hand, since piezoelectric element (1) rapidly shrinks or slowly elongates in the case of FIG. 4(b), a slider (21) moves while being pulled in by the piezoelectric element (1). Because of piezoelectric elements (1) arranged in a circle as shown in FIG. 13, a stator (11) can rotate a circular rotor (31) and a spherical rotor (35).

Abstract: A visual device searches for moving and still objects and counts the moving and still objects. The visual device includes a vibrator for vibrating a frame image by using an array calculating unit, an information unit for creating edge information on the moving and still objects from the frame image, a separator for separating the object region of the moving and still objects from the background of the frame image, a measuring unit for measuring the positions and sizes of the moving and still objects, a normalizer for normalizing the separation object regions segmented by the object regions, and a recognition unit for recognizing the normalized regions.
