Abstract: For a manual gearshift control of conventional vehicle transmission, a vehicle gearshift automatic control device including a first actuator module, a second actuator module and an electronic control unit, is provided in an add-on manner to retrofit the vehicle transmission with both automatic and manual gearshift functions. In an automatic gearshift mode, the electronic control unit executes the vehicle gearshift automatic control method and receives an automatic gearshift command to drive the first actuator module to push a shift lever to implement a lateral shift selection, or to drive the second actuator module to spin a park lever to implement a longitudinal gearshift. For vehicle security, whenever a vehicle gearshift automatic control device failure or a manual gearshift intervention is detected in the automatic gearshift mode, the electronic control unit shuts off the automatic gearshift mode and switches to a manual gearshift mode to perform the manual gearshift function.

Abstract: Semiconductor device and the manufacturing method thereof are disclosed herein.

Abstract: A system and method are described for generating 3D garments from two-dimensional (2D) scribble images drawn by users. The system includes a conditional 2D generator, a conditional 3D generator, and two intermediate media including dimension-coupling color-density pairs and flat point clouds that bridge the gap between dimensions. Given a scribble image, the 2D generator synthesizes dimension-coupling color-density pairs including the RGB projection and density map from the front and rear views of the scribble image. A density-aware sampling algorithm converts the 2D dimension-coupling color-density pairs into a 3D flat point cloud representation, where the depth information is ignored. The 3D generator predicts the depth information from the flat point cloud. Dynamic variations per garment due to deformations resulting from a wearer's pose as well as irregular wrinkles and folds may be bypassed by taking advantage of 2D generative models to bridge the dimension gap in a non-parametric way.
