  • Patent number: 9583961
    Abstract: An intellectual power storing system comprises an indoor-controlling device and a battery array which are arranged in a building. After booting, the indoor-controlling device receives power from a power company to be an initial power to provide to an indoor apparatus in the building. The indoor-controlling device also receives power from a self-generated power apparatus, and transforms the received power to store to the battery array. When stored power of the battery array reaches a threshold, the indoor-controlling device receives power from the battery array to provide to the indoor apparatus, and stops to receive power from the power company. The battery array in the present invention comprises a plurality of the batteries which are integrated into a decoration of the building respectively.

  • Patent number: 8270670
    Abstract: A method for recognizing and tracing a gesture fetches a gesture image by an image sensor. The gesture image is processed for recognizing and tracing, and a corresponding action is performed according to the processed result. The gesture image is pre-processed and then a moved image is detected. The moved image is analyzed to obtain a gesture feature. When the gesture feature is corresponding to a moved gesture, a center coordinate of the moved gesture is detected and outputted to control a cursor. When the gesture feature is corresponding to a command gesture, a relevant action command is outputted. Therefore, the method provides cursor movement and command input by user gesture.

  • Publication number: 20100302367
    Abstract: An intelligent surveillance system and method for the same uses an image sensor (10) to fetch an original image and adjust the original image to obtain an adjusted image. An adjusted motion image is detected in the adjusted image. According to the location information of the adjusted motion image, an original motion image portion is fetched in the original image. Finally the original motion image portion is displayed or stored. The present invention uses a single image sensor to fetch and preserve a high-resolution panorama image. A low-resolution panorama image is obtained from the high-resolution panorama image to detect and locate moving objects. Location areas of the moving objects in the high-resolution panorama image are re-located. High-resolution images of the moving objects are obtained without digital magnifying.

  • Publication number: 20100271297
    Abstract: A non-contact touchpad method uses an image sensor (10) to fetch an original image and adjust the original image to obtain an adjusted image. A motion image is detected in the adjusted image. The motion image is corresponded to a database (36) and divided into a plurality of division sections. At least one function block is defined in the database (36) and including at least one of the division sections. The database (36) defines the corresponding computer input action for the function blocks. The division section is determined to be a motion section or not according to a movement threshold. Finally, the computer input action is executed with reference to input functions associated with the motion section and defined in the database (36).

  • Publication number: 20080178280
    Abstract: A method for preventing an electronic device from unauthorized switching on by changing power button is disclosed. After a user operates the default power button to switch on the electronic device 1, the user sets the electronic device into a setting mode. The user designates at least one button of the function buttons to be a new power button. The new power button functionally replaces the default power button after the setting mode is finished. Thus the electronic device can be switched on only by the new power button.
