  • Publication number: 20240111372
    Abstract: Provided are a pen state detection circuit, a pen state detection system, and a pen state detection method that can improve estimation accuracy for a pen state in an electronic pen including at least one electrode. A pen state detection circuit acquires, from a touch sensor, a first signal distribution indicating a change in capacitance associated with approach of a first electrode and uses a machine learning estimator to estimate an instruction position or an inclination angle of an electronic pen from first feature values related to the first signal distribution. The first feature values include first local feature values related to a first local distribution corresponding to sensor electrodes in a number fewer than the number of arranged sensor electrodes exhibiting the first signal distribution.

  • Publication number: 20230280812
    Abstract: A server has a power state including a power saving suspend state and an operating state in which power consumption is greater than in the suspend state. A proxy device, which maintains its operating state, includes a communication processing proxy portion that, upon receiving a request signal from a client for the server with the power state being the suspend state, reacts by itself as a proxy, and, upon receiving the request signal from the client for the server with the power state being the operating state, transfers the request signal to the server in the operating state, and a state controlling portion that, in response to the request signal, sends the server a returning signal for returning the power state of the server to the operating state, and, after the power state of the server transitions to the operating state, allows the server to perform the processing of the request signal read from the buffer.

  • Patent number: 8886364
    Abstract: A support control unit for determining a traveling condition of a host vehicle during an exit from a main road to an access road determines whether or not the condition of the host vehicle at a given point in time corresponds to an exit start scene or an exit completion scene for detecting the start of an exit or completion of the exit on the basis of a host vehicle position, route data, map rendering data, or lane information including at least road surface marking positions, and determines that an exit start timing or an exit completion timing of the host vehicle has arrived when the condition is determined to correspond to the exit start scene or the exit completion scene. Hence, during the exit from the main road to the access road, the traveling condition of the host vehicle can be determined accurately.
