  • Publication number: 20240080024
    Abstract: A driving method for a multiple frequency coupling generator is provided. The method includes: in normal operations, interpreting an input digital control signal transmitted from a digital signal processor into an interpreted digital control signal; interpreting the interpreted digital control signal into a plurality of magnetic coupling signals by a magnetic coupling switch circuit; performing signal recovery and differential delay on the magnetic coupling signals by an interlocking circuit for reducing time difference and signal loss of the magnetic coupling signals; and when the interlocking circuit determines that the magnetic coupling signals have substantially no time difference and no signal loss, transforming the magnetic coupling signals into a first driving signal and a second driving signal by a switch circuit, a driver circuit and an output pad group to drive a backend driving loop.

  • Patent number: 11676017
    Abstract: The disclosure provides an image recognition method and an image recognition device. The method includes: acquiring an image and capturing a plurality of feature points in the image; obtaining a capsule network, where the capsule network sequentially includes a convolution layer, a primary capsule layer, a routing capsule layer, and an output layer; inputting the image and the feature points into the convolution layer to generate a plurality of feature vectors; inputting the feature vectors and the feature points into the primary capsule layer to generate a plurality of activity vectors; and generating a recognition result corresponding to the image by the routing capsule layer and the output layer based on the activity vectors.

  • Publication number: 20210168241
    Abstract: A video conference apparatus including an image detection device, a sound source detection device, and a processor and a video conference method are provided. The image detection device obtains a conference image of a conference space. The sound source detection device detects a sound source of the conference space and outputs a positioning signal corresponding to the sound source. The processor receives the conference image and the positioning signal to select a first sub-conference image corresponding to the sound source in the conference image according to the positioning signal. The processor detects a human face image closest to a central axis of the first sub-conference image, selects a second sub-conference image in the conference image by treating the human face image as an image center, and outputs the second sub-conference image. Therefore, an appropriate close-up conference image is automatically generated, so that a favorable video conference experience is provided.

  • Patent number: 5673879
    Abstract: A foldaway stand which includes two mounting frame fastened to a golf bag on the outside at different elevations, a frame bar detachably connected between the mounting frames, a sliding frame slidably mounted around the frame bar, two legs pivotably connected to the sliding frame at two opposite sides by two connectors, a foot plate, two links connected between connectors and the foot plate and constrained by hooks on the lower mounting frame. The links are forced by the foot plate to push the legs from the collapsed position to the extended position when the golf bag is tilted to force the foot plate against the ground.

  • Patent number: 5340063
    Abstract: A folding golf bag stand including two legs pivotably fastened to a golf bag by a mount is provided. The folding golf bag stand includes a link frame having a top end pivotably connected to the legs and a bottom end coupled to a base plate hinged to the bottom of the golf bag. A spring supported between the legs, whereby the legs are forced by the link frame to extend outwards from the golf bag for supporting the golf bag in a sloping position as the golf bag is placed on the ground to depress the base plate.
