Patent number: 10379620Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to generate, in a simulation space, a rectangular parallelepiped surrounding a target part among a plurality of parts. The target part is taken by a human body. The rectangular parallelepiped has surfaces in contact with a maximum outer shape of the target part. The processor is configured to identify, among the surfaces of the generated rectangular parallelepiped, surfaces other than a surface in contact with a part different from the target part, and select combinations of two surfaces among the identified surfaces. The processor is configured to identify, among the selected combinations, a combination which satisfies a condition that a vector from a point of a first finger to a point of a second finger penetrates the rectangular parallelepiped when the two surfaces in the combination are taken by the two fingers. The two fingers are included in the human body.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2016Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventors: Shota Tanaka, Naoyuki Nozaki

Patent number: 7869059Abstract: A height-limited-area-information creating device creates a clip plane on a base plane of a printed circuit board, and sets a view so that an image faces the base plane and a normal to the base plane represents a depth direction of the image. According to the view, a three-dimensional image of a chassis-side component is created. The base plane is divided into unit areas, and one of the unit areas is selected. Coordinates of vertices of the selected unit area are transformed to screen coordinates to acquire a component and a polygon at the position of the screen coordinates. Distances from respective four vertices to the polygon are calculated as height, and a minimum value is determined as a maximum height for the unit area.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2007Date of Patent: January 11, 2011Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventor: Naoyuki Nozaki
