  • Patent number: 11733951
    Abstract: An image display apparatus includes a microprocessor configured to perform determining whether a position of a first device is a predetermined position, and controlling image displays on a first display portion provided at the first device and a second display portion provided at a second device in accordance with a determination result. The microprocessor is configured to perform the controlling including controlling image displays on the first display portion and the second display portion so that a predetermined image is displayed on the first display portion before it is determined that the first device is the predetermined position, and the predetermined image is displayed while gradually moving over time from the first display portion to the second display portion when it is determined that the first device is the predetermined position.

  • Patent number: 11438450
    Abstract: An information transmission apparatus includes: a mode instruction unit configured to instruct a first mode to permit a voice output by the voice output unit or a second mode to prohibit the voice output; an image control unit configured to control a display image of a display unit so as to display an agent image including a face image of an agent; and an output determination unit configured to determine whether or not output of information to the user is necessary. The image control unit controls the display image so as to display, when the output determination unit determines output of information is necessary without being input a voice of an utterance by the user in a state where the second mode is instructed, a second agent image including a second face image.

  • Patent number: 8904235
    Abstract: An online debug system for an information processing device is provided that enables easily connecting a debug device for online debugging to an information processing device while maintaining minimum required functions of the information processing device as a product. The online debug system has a debug device that transfers a directive from outside to thereby debug a navigation system. The navigation system includes a debug daemon that debugs the navigation system and a data expansion unit that reads a communication driver group stored in a USB memory via a connection terminal and validates it. A serial communication driver as the communication driver group validated in the navigation system enables the debug device communicate with the debug daemon.

  • Patent number: 8880284
    Abstract: A vehicle data acquisition system that stores, in a memory device, vehicle data acquired by way of a vehicle-mounted information processor. A data acquisition program assisting the acquisition of the vehicle data is dynamically incorporated in the vehicle-mounted information processor. A probe section, which can be replaced with another command, is positioned as an invalid command in one or a plurality of positions in an application program incorporated in advance in the information processor. The data acquisition program replaces the probe section with a vehicle data acquisition command and stores the acquired vehicle data in chronological order in the memory device. The data acquisition program re-replaces the probe section with an invalid command after the vehicle data is acquired.

  • Publication number: 20080320170
    Abstract: The present invention provides a data communication apparatus for solving the following problem. When generating coded frames of multiple data streams, in the case where there is a bias in code amount of the generated coded frame, the communication apparatus is instantaneously overloaded, causing packet losses. The network cameral terminal which is the data communication apparatus includes a sensor unit that takes images or audio information, a compression unit that compression-codes the image or the audio signal and generates coded frames (I-frame, P-frame, B-frame and others), a frame control unit that controls types of the coded frame generated by the compression unit using a generation table held in a generation table holding unit, and a communication unit that transmits the coded frames to multiple communication terminals on the network in parallel.
