Abstract: A method for calibrating a vehicular vision system includes providing a camera at a vehicle, with the camera having a field of view. Images are captured with the camera and a set of resultant images are acquired for a classification. Information is extracted related to image features in the set of resultant images, and an appropriate subset of coefficients is determined. For each classification, a classification vector of at least one appropriate weight is stored that corresponds to the determined subset of coefficients.

Abstract: A security virtual machine is provided in a network including a resource shared among two or more virtual machines. All data traffic from each virtual machine to or from the shared resource is transmitted over an encrypted channel to the security virtual machine. Each connection between a virtual machine and the security virtual machine is maintained as a separate encrypted channel, preventing one virtual machine from accessing data sent to or from another virtual machine, even though the virtual machines are all sharing the same resource.

Abstract: A vehicle interior classification system and method determines a classification relating to the interior of the vehicle, such as the occupancy status of a vehicle seat or the state of alertness of a vehicle driver, from one or more images of an appropriate portion of the interior of the vehicle acquired with an image capture device. The acquired images may be processed to limit the dynamic range of the images to obtain a resultant image that includes one or more regions of interest which are less than the total field of view of the image capture device. The resultant images are processed to extract information about features in the image. The set of coefficients produced with suchprocessing can be reduced to a subset of the total number of coefficients, the members of the subset being selected for their ability to discriminate between the classifications defined for the system.

Abstract: A capsule endoscope includes an enclosure with a transparent section, a illumination unit arranged to illuminate an object to be observed via the transparent section, an image unit disposed in the enclosure, a reflecting unit disposed in the enclosure and arranged to direct light from the object to the image unit to form an image of the object, and a driving unit comprising a piezoelectric motor arranged to rotate the reflecting unit relative to the enclosure.

Abstract: A digital rights management (DRM) apparatus and a DRM method are disclosed. The DRM apparatus includes a DRM packer, a DRM object database, a distribution manager, a tracking recording unit, and an index controller. The DRM packager generates M content objects according to a digital content and outputs M DRM objects. The DRM object database stores the M DRM objects. The distribution manager selects N DRM objects according to request information from a client. M and N are positive integers, and N is less than M. The index controller controls the distribution manager to transmit N content objects to the client according to the tracking record, index information, a control rule, and a rights datum.
