  • Patent number: 9549111
    Abstract: A mobile terminal having a camera function includes a camera unit for capturing an image of a subject, and an image-capture control calculation unit that controls an image-capturing operation performed by the camera unit and that also calculates a movement speed of the subject that is being captured by the camera unit. Then, when the camera unit is performing continuous image capture, the image-capture control calculation unit dynamically changes and controls an image-capture time interval at the time of continuous image capture in accordance with a movement speed of the subject.

  • Publication number: 20080248752
    Abstract: A radio transmission system includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter includes: first and second antennas; a transmission circuit converting an signal into a radio signal corresponding to a transmission channel, and transmitting the radio signal via a transmission antenna; a receiving circuit measuring an electric field strength, for each channel, of a radio wave which a receiving antenna receives; a control circuit selecting first antenna as the receiving antenna, selecting a channel which includes the smallest strength as the transmission channel, selecting first antenna as the transmission antenna when the largest strength is equal to or smaller than a threshold value, and selecting second antenna as the transmission antenna when the largest strength is larger than the threshold value; and a switching circuit connecting the transmission circuit and the receiving circuit to the antennas, according to the selection by the control circuit.

  • Publication number: 20080172711
    Abstract: Disclosed is a video/audio transmitter which frequency-converts a video input signal and an audio input signal into a signal on one channel in a frequency band for a television broadcast and transmits the frequency-converted video input signal and the frequency-converted audio input signal. The video/audio transmitter includes an antenna, an FM reception circuit, a frequency synthesizer, an FM reception circuit, a video transmission circuit, and an operation mode designation circuit. An unused channel among broadcast channels in other frequency bands is searched for using the FM reception circuit. Next, a video input signal and an audio input signal are frequency-converted into a signal in a searched unused channel.

  • Patent number: 6583843
    Abstract: An LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) module of the present invention forms, when received in a frame by way of example, gaps corresponding to the dimension of extensions between the inner walls of the frame and the edges of glass sheets constituting an LCD panel. The gaps prevent the walls of the inside of the frame from contacting the edges of the glass sheets and thereby protect the glass sheets from damage even when a shock or an impact acts on the frame. Further, because the corners of the glass sheets do not contact the corners of the inside of the frame, it is not necessary to provide the corners of the inside of the frame with a conventional special configuration. The frame is therefore easy to design and fabricate.
