  • Patent number: 11939744
    Abstract: A display system includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires each of a first image of a work site imaged by a first camera and a second image of the work site imaged by a second camera; a viewpoint position calculation unit that calculates a viewpoint position of worker; a luminance adjustment unit that adjusts luminance of at least one of the first image and the second image based on the viewpoint position; and a display control unit that combines the first image and the second image having the luminance adjusted and causes a display device to display the combined image.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20230401876
    Abstract: A data generation device is a data generation device that generates determination data for determining a state of a target object. The data generation device includes: a first acquirer that acquires, from a first sensor, measurement data obtained by measuring the target object; a second acquirer that acquires, from a second sensor different from the first sensor, first factor data obtained by measuring a first noise factor that may cause noise in the measurement data; an accuracy information generator that calculates a measurement accuracy level of the measurement data based on the first factor data; and an accuracy information combiner that outputs the determination data in which the measurement data is associated with accuracy information indicating the measurement accuracy level of the measurement data.

  • Patent number: 10566795
    Abstract: A storage battery system control method includes at least the following steps. Respective current SOC (state of charge) values of the large capacity storage battery system and the high power storage battery system are acquired. Electrical power, which is required to operate the frequency control service for the purpose of suppressing frequency fluctuations, to the large capacity storage battery system and the high power storage battery system, in accordance with the respective SOC values. The respectively allocated electrical power is charged or discharged by driving the large capacity storage battery system, or alternatively, the high power storage battery system, or alternatively, the large capacity storage battery system and the high power storage battery system.
