  • Patent number: 10207706
    Abstract: A system for detecting a lane line of a road and a method thereof is disclosed. An image-retrieving device retrieves an image in front of a vehicle to generate a picture, and transmits the picture to a processing device. The processing device transforms one or two lane lines on the picture into a plurality of characteristic values, processes the characteristic values to generate one or two prediction lane lines, and uses them to dynamically predict and complete the lane lines, thereby forming a lane line prediction model. The processing device uses the lane line prediction model to determine whether the vehicle deviates, and transmits the picture and the lane line prediction model to a display device to display. When the vehicle deviates, the display device warns. The present invention can improve to recognize an unclear lane line, a single lane line and a far lane line.

  • Publication number: 20190013983
    Abstract: Signal transmitting/receiving electronic devices or terminals in the present disclosure are configured to conduct per-beam signal synchronization in massive MIMO communication with a signal receiving/transmitting device or base station. During the massive MIMO communication, the devices or terminals are configured to transmit/receive signals via a set of beams to or from the signal receiving/transmitting device or base station. For beam domain signal of each individual beam of the plurality beams, the devices or terminals are configured to determine target time adjustments based on time shifts of the beam domain signals induced by multipath effect and target frequency adjustments based on frequency offsets of the beam domain signals induced by the Doppler effect; adjust time independent variables of the beam domain signals by the time adjustments; and adjust frequency independent variables of the beam domain signals by the frequency adjustments.

  • Patent number: 10152642
    Abstract: A method for detecting driving behavior and a system using the same is disclosed. Firstly, at least one user image comprising an arm image and a head behavior image is retrieved. Then, a processor retrieves the arm image to compare with arm sample images stored in a database. The arm image corresponds to the arm sample image to determine a normal driving behavior. The arm image does not correspond to the arm sample image to determine an abnormal driving behavior, whereby the processor retrieves the head behavior image to compare with head regulation-violating sample images stored in the database. The head behavior image does not correspond to the head regulation-violating sample image to determine a normal driving behavior. The head behavior image corresponds to the head regulation-violating sample image to determine an abnormal driving behavior and output a second-level warning signal, thereby warning a driver.

  • Patent number: 9525452
    Abstract: A circuit of a wireless transceiver chip is disclosed. In the circuit of the wireless transceiver chip of the present invention, a capacitor is connected between the secondary conductor of the transformer in the transmitter circuit and the ground pad to form a notch filter for filtering the image signal. An ESD protection circuit is connected with the capacitor in parallel. Since the ESD protection circuit is not connected to the signal receiving path, the performance of the chip would not be degraded.

  • Patent number: 9508016
    Abstract: A dynamic lane line detection system and method is disclosed herein. Four wide-angle lenses are respectively arranged at four sides of a vehicle and capture distorted images.
