  • Patent number: 12077943
    Abstract: There is provided a system and the like capable of assisting remote operation of a work machine performed by a remote operator in such a way that contact between the work machine and an actual machine operator and other unfavorable situations can be avoided. Even in a situation in which a first evaluation result is affirmative and a work machine 40 can be remotely operated via a remote operation apparatus 20, but in a situation in which a second evaluation result is affirmative and it is highly probable that a worker carrying a portable terminal 60, such as an actual machine operator OP2, is so close to the work machine 40 or on the work machine 40 that short-range wireless communication between the work machine 40 and the portable terminal 60 is established, remote operation of the work machine 40 is inhibited.

  • Patent number: 12050691
    Abstract: A security processing device which manages a device related to operation control of a vehicle includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to store instructions executable by one or more processors. The non-transitory computer readable medium includes a non-secure area in which a mounted program is capable of being changed from an outside and a secure area in which a mounted program is incapable of being changed from the outside. The instructions cause a code of an operation program in the non-secure area to perform the operation control of the vehicle, and a diagnosis program in the secure area to diagnose an abnormality of the code of the operation program. When the abnormality of the operation program in the non-secure area is diagnosed, the instructions cause the diagnosis program in the secure area to determine a type of the abnormality and execute processing on a basis of the determined type.

  • Patent number: 10115373
    Abstract: A plurality of positional information transmitters, each of which transmits positional information to which a plurality of unit spaces are each uniquely assigned, are disposed on a ceiling. A mobile terminal receives the positional information transmitted from each of the positional information transmitters and changes a terminal-side image in accordance with the received positional information. Furthermore, the mobile terminal transmits to a server current positional information and operation information indicating an instruction inputted by a user. The server changes, in accordance with the current positional information and the operation information received by the mobile terminal, a floor image displayed on a plurality of floor displays disposed on a floor. Thus, it becomes possible to provide a highly interesting and novel position detecting system.

  • Patent number: 9878236
    Abstract: A game apparatus is capable of controlling infrared radiation emitters for radiating infrared light. The game apparatus executes game processing using imaging information on the infrared light obtained from an input device. The input device takes an image of the infrared light radiated by the infrared radiation emitters, and also receives an input from a user. The game apparatus comprises pattern storage means; selection means; and radiation control means. The pattern storage means stores at least one signal pattern of an infrared signal usable by a control target device. The selection means selects at least one of the at least one signal pattern stored by the pattern storage means, using the input received by the input device. The radiation control means causes the infrared radiation emitters to output an infrared signal of the signal pattern selected by the selection means.

  • Patent number: 9582169
    Abstract: A position of first cursor changes according to a position of thumb. A position of second cursor changes according to a visual line of a user. If a position of first cursor remains unchanged over a predetermined time period, the position of first cursor is fixed. If a distance between first cursor and second cursor has become longer, image G1 on display other than first cursor or second cursor is enlarged. If a distance between first cursor and second cursor has become shorter, image G1 on display other than first cursor or second cursor is reduced.

  • Patent number: 9411418
    Abstract: Information-processing device detects a visual line of a user, and displays cursor at the position viewed by the user. If the user touches a display area of an image using his/her finger while cursor is close to an edge of the display area, the position touched by the finger is recorded. When the user moves the finger, a scrolling speed is determined according to a distance the finger is moved and the image is scrolled in the direction of cursor. In a case where the position viewed by the user and a scrolling direction change, and where a line of a scrolling direction before the change crosses a line of a scrolling direction after the change, the scrolling direction changes while the scrolling speed is maintained.
