  • Patent number: 11955245
    Abstract: A method and a system for mental index prediction are provided. The method includes the following steps. A plurality of images of a subject person are obtained. A plurality of emotion tags of the subject person in the images are analyzed. A plurality of integrated emotion tags in a plurality of predetermined time periods are calculated according to the emotion tags respectively corresponding to the images. A plurality of preferred features are determined according to the integrated emotion tags. A mental index prediction model is established according to the preferred features to predict a mental index according to the emotional index prediction model.

  • Patent number: 9189152
    Abstract: A touch device for dynamically setting a touch inactive area includes a storage unit, an identification unit, a touchscreen unit and a processing unit. The touchscreen unit presents an operation interface and a plurality of function keys provided thereby, each function key corresponding to a display area and a function. The identification unit generates feature data on the basis of a specific user. The processing unit obtains inactive area setting data by user data stored in the storage unit which corresponding to the feature data to set at least one touch inactive area on the touchscreen unit. However, when a function key corresponding to a display area overlapped with the touch inactive area is touched on the touchscreen unit, a corresponding function will not be activated.

  • Patent number: 8738316
    Abstract: A luminance sensing system and method and a computer program product thereof are provided. The system includes: a first luminance sensing unit, arranged at a first position, and used for sensing a light ray luminance at the first position to generate a first illumination value; a second luminance sensing unit, arranged at a second position, having a displacement unit, and used for sensing a light ray luminance at the second position to generate a second illumination value; and a computing unit, electrically connected to the first luminance sensing unit, the displacement unit, and the second luminance sensing unit, and used for acquiring the first illumination value and the second illumination value, acquiring luminance range information by using the first illumination value. When the second illumination value does not conform to the luminance range information, the computing unit controls the displacement unit to move the second luminance sensing unit.
