Patent number: 12098519Abstract: A camera captures an image of a region including at least a portion of an operating member and generates image data indicative of the image. A controller acquires the image data from the camera. The controller determines whether an operation of the operating member by an operator is an intentional operation or an unintentional operation based on the image. When the operation of the operating member by the operator is determined to be the intentional operation, the controller controls a work machine according to the operation of the operating member. When the operation of the operating member by the operator is determined to be the unintentional operation, the controller invalidates the operation of the operating member.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2021Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: KOMATSU LTD.Inventors: Jun Matsumoto, Yuuki Kobayashi

Patent number: 11967976Abstract: To reduce data amount while ensuring tactile reproducibility of a two-dimensional tactile signal, and improve the efficiency of a system related to tactile reproduction. Coding is performed to compress information amount by orthogonally transforming a two-dimensional tactile signal based on a time signal. By orthogonally transforming a two-dimensional tactile signal based on a time signal, it is possible to compress information amount by removing frequency components that are difficult for humans to perceive, as in the case of an image signal, for example. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce data amount while ensuring tactile reproducibility of a two-dimensional tactile signal, and improve the efficiency of a system related to tactile reproduction.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2019Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Jun Matsumoto, Shiro Suzuki, Shuichiro Nishigori, Hirofumi Takeda
