  • Patent number: 12148331
    Abstract: A content generation method generates image content to be projected at a projection position in a real space by a projector. In a first acquisition process, space information regarding a virtual space corresponding to the real space is acquired. In a second acquisition process, display position information regarding a display position corresponding to the projection position in the virtual space is acquired. In a third acquisition process, reference position information regarding a reference position in the virtual space is acquired. In a generation process, an image including an object viewed from the reference position when the object is displayed at the display position in the virtual space is generated as the image content, based on the space information, the reference position information, and the display position information.

  • Patent number: 12078371
    Abstract: A temperature sensing system senses a temperature in the monitor space. The temperature sensing system includes a first detector, a second detector, and a processing unit. The first detector detects a temperature on a ceiling and outputs first information about the temperature on the ceiling. The second detector detects infrared radiation emitted from a floor and outputs second information about the infrared radiation from the floor. The processing unit calculates, based on at least the first information and the second information, a spatial temperature distribution which includes a component in a height direction with respect to the monitor space between the ceiling and the floor.

  • Publication number: 20240267398
    Abstract: A detection device includes a feature value database configured to store a packet feature value, a label assigned to each packet feature value, and a threshold used for determination in advance. The detection device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to perform operations including: converting a target packet into a feature value using a first natural language processing model that has been trained using normal communication packets as learning data; assigning a label to the feature value converted using the first natural language processing model, based on the feature value converted using the first natural language processing model and the data stored in the feature value database; and determining whether the target packet has an anomaly based on the assigned label.

  • Patent number: 9462362
    Abstract: A microphone support device includes a ring-shaped flame, a plurality of fixed arms which protrude toward an inner side of the flame, a plurality of movable arms which are longer than the fixed arms and are detachable, and multiple microphones. A small-size microphone array is constructed by accommodating the plurality of movable arms inside of the flame in a radiating state. On the other hand, a large-size microphone array is constructed by radially developing the plurality of movable arms outside of the flame. When constructing a circular two-dimensional microphone array, a size of the circular two-dimensional microphone array can be easily changed in this manner. Hence, the sound localization can be handled over a wide frequency range.

  • Patent number: 7379553
    Abstract: It is possible to simultaneously identify the sound coming direction from a sound source in all directions and estimate the sound intensity of the sound source. A plurality of microphones (11) are arranged on the surface of a baffle (10) of a shape such as a sphere and polyhedron so that sound from all directions are acquired. A calculation device (40) calculates the amplitude characteristic and the phase characteristic of acoustic signals acquired by the microphones (11). The signal information and information on sound field analysis around the baffle are integrated and calculation to emphasize a sound coming from a particular direction is performed for all the directions so as to identify the sound coming direction from a sound source. According to these calculation results and the distance input by an input device (70), it is possible to estimate the sound intensity of the sound source at a plurality of portions generated at the sound source or boundary surface.

  • Patent number: 5168314
    Abstract: A cleaning apparatus for a fixing device wherein a movable cleaning web is brought into contact with a member of the fixing device to thereby clean the fixing member. The amount or time of rotation of a take-up shaft for taking up the cleaning web is reduced stepwise depending on the number of sheets of recording paper having been subjected to image recording. The amount or time of rotation of the take-up shaft is effected by using the relationship between the increase in the diameter of the take-up roller and the number of copies made stored previously.
