Patent number: 11460491Abstract: Provided is a sensor in which a current sensor that detects a current of a power line as a change in a magnetic field and a voltage sensor that detects a voltage of the power line using capacitive coupling are integrally formed. The transmission of signals related to substantially the same sections is omitted in order to effectively compress an output signal from the sensor and an output signal from the voltage sensor. When the amplitude and phase of a fundamental wave which are estimated from the output signal from the sensor and the amplitude and phase of harmonics are encoded, the amplitude and phase of the harmonics are relativized with a value for the fundamental wave.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Informetis CorporationInventors: Kenji Arashima, Takashi Shibuya, Mototsugu Abe, Masayuki Nishiguchi

Patent number: 8452119Abstract: The present invention provides an image processing device and an image display system achieving image quality improvement in moving picture by suppressing a motion blur in a hold-type display device, while maintaining low cost. The image processing device processes image data provided from outside and outputting the image data to a hold type display device. The image processing device includes a correction processing section performing a correction process to correct a pixel value in the image data for each pixel through performing a spatial LPF (low pass filter) process on the image data in a frame to be displayed in the display device according to a magnitude of a motion vector in the image data, the spatial LPF process allowing a slope of a changing edge portion in the image data to be more gentle.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2009Date of Patent: May 28, 2013Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Kenji Arashima, Tomoya Yano, Toru Nishi

Publication number: 20090153743Abstract: An image processing device according to the present invention includes a motion vector detecting unit, a response time information storage unit, a compensation processing unit and an output unit. The motion vector detecting unit detects a motion vector of image data. The response time information storage unit stores response time information representing a time since a driving voltage is applied to a display device until an image with a corresponding tone is displayed in association with a tone variation value. The compensation processing unit compensates a pixel value in image data for each pixel in a frame that is one frame ahead of a frame to be displayed, based on the image data, the motion vector and the response time information. The output unit outputs the image data after compensated by the compensation processing unit to the display device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2008Publication date: June 18, 2009Applicant: Sony CorporationInventor: Kenji Arashima
