  • Patent number: 11941845
    Abstract: An apparatus for estimating a camera pose according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a similar image searcher, a clusterer, and an estimator. The similar image searcher searches for a plurality of images similar to an input image, from among a plurality of previously-stored images, based on the input image. The clusterer creates a cluster including at least some similar images meeting predetermined conditions, from among the plurality of similar images, based on viewpoint data tagged to each of the plurality of similar images. The estimator estimates a pose of a camera that has generated the input image, based on the cluster.

  • Publication number: 20240068460
    Abstract: A variable displacement swash plate type compressor control method and a variable displacement swash plate type compressor controlled thereby may include a first determination step of determining whether liquid refrigerant exists within the variable displacement swash plate type compressor; a first operation step of applying power to the field coil assembly and of not applying current to the electronic control valve, when it is determined in the first determination step S1 that the liquid refrigerant exists; a second determination step of comparing an elapsed period of time of operating in the first operation step with a predetermined reference time; and a second operation step of maintaining the power applied in the first operation step to the field coil assembly and applying current to the electronic control valve when the elapsed period of time is greater than or equal to the reference time.
