  • Publication number: 20200103248
    Abstract: A display system includes: a display that displays an image; and a display controller that causes the display to display a first image resembling roads around a vehicle and a second image resembling a recommended lane determined on the basis of a route to a destination set by the vehicle among the roads around the vehicle. The display controller causes the display to display the second image and a third image guiding a course of the vehicle when the vehicle has reached a second position located a predetermined distance before a first position at which the vehicle has to make a turn in the route to the destination.

  • Patent number: 10488736
    Abstract: The film cover constituting the instant film pack includes a cover member, a pair of accompanying prevention ribs, a pair of outer light shielding ribs, and a pair of inner light shielding ribs. The accompanying prevention ribs are arranged in parallel with a discharge direction from a distal end of the film cover in the discharge direction. Similarly to the accompanying prevention ribs, since the outer light shielding ribs are formed on a front surface of the cover member, the outer light shielding ribs together with the accompanying prevention ribs can prevent the film unit from accompanying. A tilt surface of which a protruding height gradually decreases toward a distal end from a proximal end of the cover member is formed on the accompanying prevention rib.

  • Publication number: 20190335632
    Abstract: Component mounting system 1 includes electronic component mounting device 10, control device 100, image processing device 110, memory device 115, and display 120. Electronic component mounting device 10 includes mounting head 26, supply device 28, and component camera 90, and is configured to use mounting head 26 to pick up an electronic component supplied by supply device 28 and to image the held electronic component using component camera 90. When saving the captured image data on memory device 115, it is determined whether a condition for using a first format is satisfied (S1, S2). When the conditions for using the first format are satisfied (S2: yes), the captured image data is saved on memory device 115 in the first format that is a lossless compression format (S5). When conditions for using the first format are not satisfied (S2: no), the captured image data is saved on memory device 115 in the second format, which is a lossy compression format.

  • Publication number: 20190274238
    Abstract: A component picked up by a suction nozzle of a component mounting machine is imaged by a camera, the captured image is processed by an image recognition system to recognize the component, the image is determined to be normal or abnormal based on the recognition result, and in addition to classifying the image as a normal image or an abnormal image and storing the image in a storage device, component mounting boards, unloaded from a component mounting machine, are inspected with an inspection device. A stored image reclassification computer acquires the inspection result from the inspection device, reclassifies the normal image stored in the storage device, based on the inspection result, as an image whose determination as a normal image is suspect or as an image whose determination as a normal image is not suspect, and then stores the normal image in the storage device.
