  • VEHICLE STATE DETERMINATION DEVICE, VEHICLE STATE DETERMINATION METHOD, AND DRIVING OPERATION DIAGNOSIS DEVICE
    Publication number: 20150298676
    Abstract: A vehicle state determination device determines the operating state of the brakes of the vehicle on the basis of information obtained from an acceleration sensor. A data log unit stores, over time, the acceleration acquired from the acceleration sensor. A stop detection unit issues an instruction to start determining the operating state of the brakes on the basis of the timing of the end of a braking operation, which is estimated on the basis of the fact that the amount of change in the acceleration is less than a prescribed value. A first range selection unit refers to the acceleration, which is stored in the data log unit, toward the past from the time at which an instruction to start determining the operating state of the brakes was issued, and establishes a period in which the acceleration is decreasing toward the past as an exclusion period.

  • Ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus
    Patent number: 9144413
    Abstract: The present invention provides an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus that is capable of displaying an elastic image, enabling an accurate and easy identification of tissue characteristics of a diagnostic part. Elasticity data regarding a test object is obtained based on a received signal of an ultrasonic probe, and an elastic image representing a distribution of the elasticity data of the test object is generated. A display mode setting means sets a display mode of the elastic image in such a manner that a different tissue can be identified based on a value of the elasticity data. In this case, the display mode is differentiated by the value of the elasticity data within one tissue. With this configuration, the tissue characteristics of the diagnostic part are identified by the elasticity data, and displayed in a different display mode, thereby displaying an elastic image identifiable accurately and easily.

    Patent number: 9060737
    Abstract: An image showing the spatial distribution of the hardness of a tissue of an object to be examined from which the influence of the pressure amount is eliminated is displayed. From ultrasonic tomography data measured by pressing the tissue, a physical quantity relating to the distortion of the tissue at measurement points of the tissue is determined. An elasticity image of the tissue is created according to the physical quantity. The physical quantities at the measurement points are indexed by using the physical quantity in a reference region determined in the elasticity image as a reference, and an indexed elasticity image showing the distribution of the index value is created.

  • Driving supporting device
    Patent number: 8981964
    Abstract: In this driving supporting device, the light color change cycle of a prediction object traffic signal is acquired on the basis of the light color change cycle of a prediction basis traffic signal installed before the prediction object traffic signal, and the light color state of the prediction object traffic signal when the vehicle arrives at the prediction object traffic signal is predicted on the basis of the light color state of the prediction basis traffic signal and the light color change cycle of the prediction object traffic signal. Thus, since the light color change cycle of the prediction object traffic signal is acquired on the basis of the light color change cycle of the prediction basis traffic signal, it becomes possible to predict a light color state even in the case of a traffic signal which cannot transmit information indicating its light color change cycle.
