Publication number: 20220262123Abstract: A search support system includes at least one camera, and a server capable of communicating with the camera. The camera transmits, to the server, a captured image of the object and image color information of the captured image. The server determines whether a search condition of the captured image set by a user includes a color condition of at least one of white, black, and gray. When the color condition is included in the search condition, the server excludes a captured image associated with the image color information indicating the black-and-white image among all captured images stored in the database from a search target, and outputs a search result including a captured image satisfying the search condition. When the color condition is not included in the search condition, the server outputs a search result including a captured image satisfying the search condition among all captured images stored in the database.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 18, 2022Publication date: August 18, 2022Applicant: PANASONIC I-PRO SENSING SOLUTIONS CO., LTD.Inventors: Yoshitaka FUKUSHIMA, Takeshi SHIMADA, Hiroaki OOTAKE, Takuya KISE, Masakazu FUJII

Publication number: 20140360378Abstract: A tea infuser structure includes a main body and mount device, where the main body has an opening and crack. The opening is sunk inward to form an accepting space, a flange is disposed around the opening, and the crack is disposed on the rim of the opening. The mount device has a frame, and is mounted on the flange through the frame. A bearing plate is disposed inside the frame and defines a through portion. Whereby, a tea bag can be pulled away from the accepting space to the bearing plate conveniently by pulling a pull thread of the tea bag retained in the crack so as to preventing the tea bag from being dipped in tea too long, and further controlling the thickness of the tea. Furthermore, a spout can be prevented from damage due to collision by covering a protective cover on it.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2013Publication date: December 11, 2014Inventor: Masakazu Fujii
