Publication number: 20230110462Abstract: A phosphor wheel unit includes a phosphor wheel that converts incident light into fluorescent light and emits the fluorescent light, a first heat exchanger having a plurality of fin members that is arranged and an airflow inlet surface through which an airflow generated by rotation of the phosphor wheel partially or entirely flows in, and a regulating member that regulates a direction of the airflow. The direction of the airflow regulated by the regulating member and a direction perpendicular to a rotation shaft of the phosphor wheel form an angle of between 0 degrees and 45 degrees on a surface perpendicular to an extending direction of a base material of the phosphor wheel. The airflow inlet surface is disposed intercepting the direction of the airflow regulated by the regulating member. The first heat exchanger cools a gas forming the airflow and the cooled gas returns to the phosphor wheel.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Inventors: Kiyoko TSUJI, Masato TANAKA, Hiroyuki MASUDA

Publication number: 20120077172Abstract: A digital camera (1) performs shooting such that each student within a classroom is included in a subject, uses an optical flow to detect the action of standing up from a chair or the action of moving a mouth by a student who needs to be a speaker, thus specifies the position of the speaker (any of the students) on a shooting image and extracts image data on the face portion of the speaker. A PC (2) uses a projector (3) to display a material on a screen (4), and superimposes and displays, when the extracted image data is transferred from the digital camera (1), a picture of the face of the speaker on the screen (4) based on the extracted image data.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2011Publication date: March 29, 2012Applicant: SANYO ELECTRIC CO., LTD.Inventors: Tohru WATANABE, Ryuhei AMANO, Noboru YOSHINOBE, Masafumi TANAKA, Kiyoko TSUJI, Kazuo ISHIMOTO, Toshio NAKAKUKI, Kaihei KUWATA, Masahiro YOSHIDA
