  • Patent number: 10557437
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump (100) provided in a diesel engine, including: an electromagnetic spill valve (20) configured to adjust a fuel injection amount by releasing a pressurized fuel with opening/closing of a spill valve body (23); and an ECU (Engine Control Unit, 50) configured to form a current waveform of drive current of the electromagnetic spill valve (20). The ECU (50), during the warm state, detects a valve-close timing of the electromagnetic spill valve (20), forms an optimum current waveform of drive current based on the detected valve-close timing, and applies drive current with thus formed optimum current waveform to the electromagnetic spill valve (20), whereas, during the cold state, the ECU (50) applies only drive current with a pre-set current waveform to the electromagnetic spill valve (20).

  • Patent number: 9165365
    Abstract: In a method of estimating a camera attitude, based on the past-detected position of a marker and an appropriate camera attitude provided during current frame imaging, the position of the maker to the current frame is approximately predicted. Through extraction of points which are near the predicted marker position (marker neighboring points), a group of points are obtained. An attitude of the camera (rotation matrix and translation matrix) which optimizes an estimation function is obtained for re-estimating the camera attitude, where the estimation function needs, as its condition, a distance between the marker neighboring points included in the point groups and an estimation plane on which the marker is positioned. The point groups include many points extracted from the neighborhood of the marker, so that the preliminarily estimated approximate camera attitude can be corrected and estimated with higher accuracy even in an environment with occlusion.
