  • Patent number: 11115941
    Abstract: A time synchronization system includes a first wireless device and a second wireless device. A wireless unit of the first wireless device wirelessly transmits timing information and time information separately, the time information being acquired from a first clock and relating to a transmission time when the timing information was transmitted. A wireless unit of the second wireless device receives the wirelessly transmitted timing information and time information separately. A correction unit of the second wireless device corrects s a second clock on the basis of a reference time indicated by the second clock at a time when the wireless unit received the timing information, and a transmission time obtained from the time information.

  • Patent number: 9964500
    Abstract: A defect inspection device is provided with an illumination optical system that irradiates light or an electron beam onto a sample, a detector that detects a signal obtained from the sample through the irradiation of the light or electron beam, a defect detection unit that detects a defect candidate on the sample through the comparison of a signal output by the detector and a prescribed threshold, and a display unit that displays a setting screen for setting the threshold. The setting screen is a two-dimensional distribution map that represents the distribution of the defect candidates in a three dimensional feature space having three features as the axes thereof and includes the axes of the three features and the threshold, which is represented in one dimension.

  • Patent number: 8212937
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a video processing apparatus includes a histogram generator, a determination module and a sharpening processor. The histogram generator generates a histogram based on a luminance level of pixels of a video signal. The determination module determines whether the video signal is a captured video based on the histogram. The sharpening processor sharpens the video signal based on an imaging model function in which a blur due to imaging is not considered, if the video signal is not the captured video.
