Norihiro TSUJIOKA has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12243210
    Abstract: A maintenance support system prevents leakage of confidential information by excluding a maintenance target while imposing few restrictions on imaging conditions. A maintenance support system 100 includes a wearable terminal 1 including an imaging device 12, a first identifying device 31 configured to identify a first three-dimensional area TA including a maintenance target T with reference to a predetermined reference point M, and a second identifying device 32 configured to identify a mask pixel area excluding an effective pixel area corresponding to the first three-dimensional area for a captured image acquired by the imaging device in a post-movement state in which the wearable terminal has moved. A processed-image generating device 33 is configured to generate a processed image in which the mask pixel area is made invisible and a communication device 34 is configured to transmit the processed image to a support terminal 2.

  • Patent number: 11785184
    Abstract: A maintenance support system includes a terminal including an imaging device, a device configured to identify a three-dimensional area TA including a maintenance target T with reference to a predetermined reference point, a device for identifying a position (vector A) of the imaging device in an initial state with respect to the reference point, a device for identifying a change of position (vector B) from the initial state of the imaging device, a device for identifying a position (vector C) of the reference point with reference to the imaging device in a post-movement state in which the terminal has moved, and identifying a pixel area corresponding to the three-dimensional area in a captured image, and a device for generating a processed image in which a portion other than the pixel area is made invisible. A communication device is provided for transmitting the processed image to a support terminal.
