  • Publication number: 20230038637
    Abstract: A radiation detector includes a wiring board, a first image sensor, a second image sensor, a first fiber optic plate, a second fiber optic plate, and a scintillator layer. The first fiber optic plate can guide light between a first light entering region and a first light exiting region. The second fiber optic plate can guide light between a second light entering region and a second light exiting region. One side of the first light entering region and one side of the second light entering region are in contact with each other. The first light exiting region is positioned on a first light receiving region. The second light exiting region is positioned on a second light receiving region. One side surface of a first side surface and one side surface of a second side surface exhibit shapes along each other and in contact with each other.

  • Patent number: 10408950
    Abstract: An image acquisition apparatus includes a fiber optic member including optical fibers, and transmitting an optical image from an input end face to an output end face, an imaging device including pixels, imaging the optical image from the output end face, and outputting an image, and an image processing device performing flat field correction of a fixed pattern noise for the image from the imaging device. The image processing device sets a first switching point of the correction on the basis of a noise peak point, performs the flat field correction in a case where output intensity from an object pixel of the image is lower than first switching intensity at the first switching point, and does not perform the correction in a case where the output intensity is higher than the first switching intensity.

  • Publication number: 20180137735
    Abstract: An abnormality detection method includes acquiring, by a computer, data indicating a time when a monitored subject is detected to have assumed a predetermined posture, based on an output value from a sensor corresponding to the monitored subject; and referencing, by the computer, a storage configured to store information identifying a time period when the monitored subject assumes the predetermined posture and detecting an abnormality of the monitored subject when the time indicated by the acquired data is not included in the time period.

  • Publication number: 20070144951
    Abstract: An apparatus for dissolving filth treatment bags formed by hot water soluble films in a dissolving tub is disclosed. The apparatus includes a pipe for inputting hot water for dissolving the filth bag storing filth by stirring action of the hot water therefrom, a pipe for outputting vapor including odor generated by a mixture of the filth and the hot water in the dissolving tub, the vapor being generated on a shifting process from a state where the film is divided and collapsed to a stage where the film is dissolved, and a mechanism for cooling the heated wastewater including the dissolved filth bag and the hot water in the dissolving tub and outputting the wastewater into a sewer pipe from the dissolving tub.
