  • Patent number: 11689797
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, a non-transitory computer-readable medium, and a system. In one example, the information processing apparatus is a camera. The camera includes a memory, communication circuitry, and control circuitry. The memory is configured to store a first set of backup camera settings. The communication circuitry is configured to communicate with a server, the server configured to store a second set of backup camera settings. The control circuitry is configured to perform a start-up process when the camera is turned ON, the start-up process includes comparing the first set of backup camera settings to the second set of backup camera settings to determine whether the first set of backup camera settings is newer than the second set of backup camera settings.

  • Patent number: 11533420
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes a server apparatus, a recording method, a non-transitory computer-readable, and a system. In one example, the server apparatus includes a recording unit and a controller. The controller is configured to receive image data of a subject from a camera, control the recording unit to record the image data of the subject that is received from the camera, monitor the image data of the subject to determine whether the image data of the subject that is received from the camera is abnormal, and responsive to determining that the image data of the subject that is received from the camera is abnormal, control the recording unit to perform recording end processing on the image data of the subject that has already been recorded.

  • Patent number: 6753255
    Abstract: A chemical vapor deposition process controls the thickness of a film on an edge of a wafer by modifying the density of flow gases at the edge of the wafer through the use of a gas flow control ring. The deposition process is performed with the gas flow control ring disposed about a wafer holding region on a wafer holder. The top surface of the gas flow control ring is controlled relative to the top surface of the wafer to adjust the thickness of the film deposited on the wafer edge. In one particular embodiment, the gas flow control ring has a top surface in the same plane as the top surface of the wafer. In another embodiment, the deposition process is performed with the clearance between the inner diameter of the gas flow control ring and the periphery of the wafer minimized.
