Abstract: A position estimation system is a position estimation system for estimating a position of a forklift equipped with a camera and includes: a position estimation unit configured to estimate a position of the forklift on the basis of a feature included in an image captured by the camera; and an inclusion determination unit configured to calculate, on the basis of a position in a height direction of a mast with which the forklift is equipped, an inclusion range indicating a range in which the mast is in the image and determine to stop estimation of the position by using the position estimation unit when the inclusion range calculated exceeds an allowable range.

Abstract: A position estimating device is a position estimating device that estimates a position of a vehicle equipped with a camera and includes a position estimating unit configured to estimate the position of the vehicle by image processing of an image captured by the camera and a load control unit configured to control a processing load of the image processing by controlling an execution timing of the image processing performed by the position estimating unit and/or the image to be subjected to the image processing.

Abstract: A bias estimation device includes a determination unit configured to determine whether a forklift is stationary based on a measurement value from a first sensor configured to detect information regarding movement of the forklift and a measurement value from a second sensor configured to detect information regarding a cargo handling device included in the forklift, an accumulation unit configured to accumulate an IMU measurement value that is a measurement value from an inertial measurement unit included in the forklift when the determination unit determines that the forklift is stationary and stop accumulation of the IMU measurement value when the determination unit determines that the forklift is not stationary, and a calculation unit configured to calculate a bias of the IMU measurement value based on the IMU measurement value accumulated in the accumulation unit.

Abstract: Provided are an inexpensive and safe moving object detection apparatus and moving object detection method that enable accurate detection of a moving object from an image sequence captured by a monocular camera at a high speed. A representative configuration of the moving object detection apparatus according to the present invention is provided with a horizon line detection unit that detects a horizon line in a frame image, an edge image generation unit that generates an edge image from a frame image, and a moving object detection unit that sets a detection box on a moving object, and the edge image generation unit extracts an edge image below a horizon line detected by the horizon line detection unit, and the moving object detection unit generates a foreground by combining the difference between the edge image below the horizon line and a background image of the edge image with the difference between a gray scale image and a background image of the gray scale image.

Abstract: A power exchange management device includes: a power consumer service processor that receives bid solicitation information from a power consumer, the bid solicitation information being for soliciting exchange of power; a prosumer service processor that publicizes a bid solicitation condition on a terminal device of a prosumer on the basis of the bid solicitation information and receives application information responding to the bid solicitation information from the terminal device of the prosumer; a prosumer power transmission information acquirer that acquires information about an amount of power transmitted to the grid by the power transmission facility of the prosumer by reverse power flow; and a target manager (24) that compares the acquired amount of transmitted power with a target value set on the basis of the bid solicitation information and the application information and determines an incentive to be offered to the prosumer depending on a result of the comparison.

Abstract: A congestion avoidance support system includes a storage device storing information of respective travelers, and an arithmetic device configured to receive a request to avoid congestion from a business operator terminal of a predetermined business operator, identify the content of an incentive on the basis of a road to be avoided during congestion in the request and crowdedness situation of the road, distribute information of the incentive to a traveler terminal and, upon receiving, after the distribution, a notification from the traveler terminals that either a predetermined property in the request has matched the traveler's transfer policy and transfer trend, or the traveler has moved in accordance with the request and therefore acquired the incentive, perform each of the processes of identifying the content of the incentive and distributing the information again, when the crowdedness situation of the road to be avoided indicates a predetermined degree of crowdedness.

Abstract: An interactive health management apparatus is configured to: receive a category of a health value of a patient, a degree of improvement, priority orders between a period and a cost of the service; acquire a candidate medication based on an actual prescription; acquire a candidate service based on the received health value category and priority orders; displays the acquired candidate medication and a price thereof, and, the acquired candidate service and a fee thereof; calculate an estimated health value in the received health value category based on a degree of improvement of the candidate service and an actual past value of the health information; display the calculated estimated value as a time series graphic; and receive selection from the displayed candidate service by the patient.

Abstract: A health care apparatus includes a storage unit to store first, second and third information groups which are respectively sets of a plurality of schedule information pieces, biological system information pieces, and comment information pieces, and a controller to associate individual information pieces respectively included in the first, second, and third information groups with each other on the basis of coincidence or resemblance among words included in the individual information pieces, The controller displays the first, second, and third information groups respectively in first, second, and third areas of a screen on an output device connected to the controller. The controller accepts arbitrary one selected out of the individual information pieces included in the first, the second, or the third information group. The controller displays other individual information pieces associated with the selected individual information piece with emphasis.

Abstract: It is possible to provide a service which can be easily customized in accordance with a user's preference. A method for providing information by a data processing device is applied to a data processing device which can acquire information from other information providing site via a network. In the state of display as a menu icon in a menu region on a desktop, no operation of menu is performed. In the state when the menu icon is dragged from the menu region to the desktop, it is possible to obtain operation of the menu as a Widget icon which displays the information acquired via the network.
