  • Patent number: 10263743
    Abstract: The present disclosure receives a frame where an identification data packet of a predetermined standard that identifies the frame from a head of the frame by a predetermined period is arranged via a network, writes the identification data packet, a video data packet, and an ancillary data packet in a buffer having a predetermined size so that the identification data packet is arranged at a head of the buffer, reads the identification data packet, the video data packet, and the ancillary data packet from the head of the buffer, converts the video data packet into video data and converts the ancillary data packet into ancillary data, multiplexes the video data and the ancillary data, and outputs video/ancillary data.

  • Patent number: 9645898
    Abstract: A controller module (CM) includes buffers that feed back signals output using respective signal lines used for mutual communication with other CM, and a first detecting unit and a second detecting unit that detect abnormality such that the levels of the signals output using the signal lines do not change from respective specific levels when each level of the fed-back signals does not coincide with an expected level being a level previously determined according to a predetermined timing.

  • Patent number: 9645737
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a monitoring unit that monitors a reception of a power-on instruction from a second control device among the plurality of control devices, and a prevention unit that prevents an issue of the power-on instruction to the second control device when the monitoring unit detects the power-on instruction from the second control device. Therefore, the control device can prevent the occurrence of unintended power-on operations.

  • Patent number: 9086963
    Abstract: There is provided a system that includes a first apparatus and a second apparatus configured to perform communication therebetween using a signal line, wherein the first apparatus includes a holding section configured to hold a signal level of a signal outputted from the second apparatus using the signal line, and the second apparatus includes, a detection section configured to detect a failure in which a signal level does not change from a certain signal level when the detection section detects that the signal level is not correspondent with a predetermined level, the signal level being held in the holding section after a signal of the predetermined level is inputted to the signal line by the second apparatus.
