  • Publication number: 20180173974
    Abstract: A method for detecting driving behavior and a system using the same is disclosed. Firstly, at least one user image comprising an arm image and a head behavior image is retrieved. Then, a processor retrieves the arm image to compare with arm sample images stored in a database. The arm image corresponds to the arm sample image to determine a normal driving behavior. The arm image does not correspond to the arm sample image to determine an abnormal driving behavior, whereby the processor retrieves the head behavior image to compare with head regulation-violating sample images stored in the database. The head behavior image does not correspond to the head regulation-violating sample image to determine a normal driving behavior. The head behavior image corresponds to the head regulation-violating sample image to determine an abnormal driving behavior and output a second-level warning signal, thereby warning a driver.

  • Patent number: 9948074
    Abstract: A circuit breaker arrangement is disclosed. It comprises a cart (1) on which slides a circuit breaker. A lead screw (14) drives the circuit breaker along a linear path by moving a drive block (15), an upper protuberance (211) of which engages the circuit breaker. The arrangement provides for an automatic uncoupling of the circuit breaker at an end position of the drive block (15), where a handle inserted into a hole (24) may turn an end of the lead screw and rock the drive block with a meshing mechanism (43) so that the protuberance (211) escapes the circuit breaker. It is therefore very easy to mount, dismount or replace the circuit breaker. A similar advantage based on unlatching an interlock may be obtained for dismounting the electrical motor (12) that normally drives the lead screw (14). The invention can well take place in the medium voltage industry.

  • Publication number: 20170346278
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuit including a dynamic field plate bias circuit, and associated methods. In some embodiments, the ESD protection circuit includes a bipolar junction transistor (BJT) based ESD protection circuit including a field plate configured to increase a breakdown voltage of the BJT based ESD protection circuit. The ESD protection circuit also includes a dynamic field plate bias circuit coupled to the field plate of the BJT based ESD protection circuit. The dynamic field plate bias circuit is configured to provide the field plate a field plate bias at transient opposite to a field plate bias at a normal operation. The transient bias reduces a trigger voltage of the BJT based ESD protection circuit and increases a shunt current of the BJT based ESD protection circuit during the ESD event. Thereby, ESD protection reliability is improved.
