  • Patent number: 10740909
    Abstract: A drive recorder is provided with a moving object detecting unit and a temporary recording control unit. A moving object detecting unit detects a moving object in a captured image acquired by an image acquiring unit mounted on the own vehicle and provided with a plurality of cameras capturing images around the own vehicle. A temporary recording control unit selects, as a temporary recording camera, one or more cameras which are included in the plurality of cameras in the image acquiring unit and which include a target camera which is a camera including the position of the moving object within an image capturing range of the camera, according to a detection result from the moving object detecting unit, and to record an image captured by the temporary recording camera in a previously prepared recording medium.

  • Patent number: 10707712
    Abstract: A rotor in a rotating electric machine including a rotor main body and at least one magnet unit provided at an outer circumferential part of the rotor main body. The magnet unit has a plurality of magnet teeth as segments in the circumferential direction. The plurality of magnet teeth that form one magnet unit are arranged in a circular arc shape. At least one pair of magnet teeth in one magnet unit is each provided with a notch. With the plurality of magnet teeth being arranged in the circular arc shape, a fixation block is press-fitted in the pair of notches. The fixation block is fastened to the rotor main body while being inserted in the notches.

  • Patent number: 10623610
    Abstract: A display processing device includes a moving image generation unit, a display control unit, and an input detection unit. The moving image generation unit generates a combined moving image that is a moving image combined from a plurality of moving images. The input detection unit detects an input operation performed on the input device that receives the input operation for inputting at least one of a position on the combined moving image displayed on a display device and a direction based on the combined moving image. The display control unit allows the display device to display a moving image that is based on, among the plurality of moving images constituting the combined moving image, one or more moving images according to the input detected by the input detection unit, and that has a display mode different from at least the combined moving image.

  • Patent number: 10559988
    Abstract: A first magnet group provided to a first core member and a second magnet group provided to a second core member are adjacent to each other in an axial direction of a rotor. The first magnet group includes a plurality of first magnets arrayed in a circumferential direction of the rotor. The second magnet group includes a plurality of second magnets arrayed in the circumferential direction. The first magnet and the second magnet, which are adjacent to each other and have the same polarity, are shifted from each other by a certain angle in the circumferential direction. One of the first core member and the second core member has a first recessed portion, and another of the first core member and the second core member has a first protruding portion to be engaged with the first recessed portion in the circumferential direction.
