  • Publication number: 20150013005
    Abstract: Upon acquiring first data transmitted from an outside of a predetermined range in a network, an apparatus stores, in a memory, first information including transmission source and destination addresses of the first data. Upon acquiring second data addressed to an inside of the predetermined range and indicating predetermined communication data of service initiation, the apparatus extracts the first information including as the transmission source address a source address of the second data, and stores, in the memory, second information indicating a service initiation and including a destination address of the second data, in association with the first information. When the second information including as the transmission destination address a source address of the second data is stored in the memory and a destination address of the second data coincides with the transmission source address in the first information associated with the second information, the apparatus notifies detection of an attack.

  • Patent number: 8825440
    Abstract: A resolver signal converter and a resolver signal conversion method amplify and perform analogue-digital conversion on a sine wave output from a resolver; thereafter, among frequency components of the sine wave output, pass and thereby extract a predetermined bandwidth of which the center frequency is the frequency of an excitation signal, by means of a band-pass filter; sample the sine wave output while synchronizing the sine wave output with a reference signal which is based on the excitation signal; and generate a detection angle signal sine value from the sampled signal. Similarly, a detection angle signal cosine value is generated from a cosine wave output from the resolver.

  • Publication number: 20140223359
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, display processor includes display, detector, communication module, and display controller. The display controller displays first animation upon receipt of data from the communication terminal when contact of the communication terminal within a display area is detected by the detector, or displays second animation upon transmission of data to the communication terminal when contact of the communication terminal within the display area is detected by the detector. The first animation moves display information representing the data received by the communication module so that a size of the display information is increased from a position at which the contact of the communication terminal is detected. The second animation moves display information representing the data transmitted to the communication module so that a size of the display information is decreased toward a position at which the contact of the communication terminal is detected.

  • Patent number: 8780202
    Abstract: An image display system is capable of generating a composite image that shows a surrounding area of a vehicle viewed from virtual viewpoints, by combining a plurality of shot images taken by a plurality of on-vehicle cameras that are disposed at different locations on the vehicle. The image display system changes data volumes of two shot images taken by two of the on-vehicle cameras based on a lighting mode of a lighting apparatus, the data volumes being used for an overlap area of the composite image that corresponds to the surrounding area of the vehicle where the two on-vehicle cameras can shoot in overlap. This reduces problems caused by lighting of the lighting apparatus in the overlap area of the composite image.

  • Patent number: 8749632
    Abstract: An image display system makes a range of a region around a vehicle to be shown in a composite image as a subject image in a case where an auxiliary lighting system emits auxiliary light, smaller than that in a case where the auxiliary lighting system does not emit auxiliary light. As a result, an image display system can reduce the number of times when a user has to watch the subject image of an object in a region not illuminated by the auxiliary lighting system.
