  • Patent number: 9613278
    Abstract: A method is for recognizing a person hailing a public passenger vehicle. The method is implemented by a system including an image capturing device, a processor, and a notification unit. In the method, the image capturing device successively captures images in front of the public passenger vehicle at a fixed rate. The processor determines whether any one of the images has a human body. Afterwards the processor determines whether the human body remains in a predetermined posture for a predetermined duration. When it is determined that the human body remains in the predetermined posture for longer than the predetermined duration the notification unit informs a driver of the public passenger vehicle.

  • Patent number: 7742139
    Abstract: Structures of array substrate and panel of LCD are provided. In the structures, a single pixel is divided into two sub-pixels. By altering thickness of passivation layer, dielectric layer or organic layer in the two sub-pixels, the total capacitances of the two sub-pixels are different. Therefore, the goal of increasing view angles of displays is achieved.

  • Patent number: 7341899
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a thin film transistor is disclosed. The method comprises forming an amorphous silicon layer overlying a substrate. A first heat treatment is then performed to reduce the hydrogen atom concentration of the amorphous silicon layer. Next, the amorphous silicon layer is patterned to form an island-shaped amorphous silicon pattern. An insulating layer is then formed over the island-shaped amorphous silicon pattern followed by forming a gate electrode on the insulating layer. Ions are then implanted into the island-shaped amorphous silicon pattern to form an ion doped region. A heat treatment is then performed to transfer the island-shaped amorphous silicon pattern into an island-shaped polysilicon pattern and simultaneously activate the ion doped region using laser annealing. A passivation layer is formed on the island-shaped polysilicon pattern followed by etching the passivation layer to form openings exposing the ion doped area.
