  • Publication number: 20240144491
    Abstract: An object tracking device that can track an object accurately and consistently is provided. An object tracking device (20) includes an input interface (21), a processor (23), and an output interface (24). The input interface (21) is configured to acquire sensor data.

  • Patent number: 7386095
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an X-ray tube with a structure, by which the charging of an insulating member, disposed inside a container, is effectively prevented to enable stable operation to be secured. This X-ray tube has an electron source that emits electrons, a target that generates X-rays in response to the incidence of the electrons, first and second electrons, each having a side face portion that extends along the direction of incidence of the electrons and forming a predetermined electric field between the electron source and the target, and an insulating support member, for supporting the first and second electrodes, being disposed along the side face portions of the first and second electrodes.

  • Patent number: 7062352
    Abstract: With respect to two or more NC data points among a group of dots together representing a tool locus, a curvature radius of the tool locus is determined. Then, the NC data point and its succession with other points is displayed in a display color determined according to the magnitude of the curvature radius. Alternatively, a movement direction of each minute segment relative to a specific axis selected from the three (XYZ) axes is determined as either positive, negative, or zero, and the minute segment or an end point thereof is display with the display property determined according to the movement direction. Still alternatively, after a specific axis is selected from the three (XYZ) axes, a region relative to the selected region is divided along the selected axis, for predetermined dividing width, first beginning with a predetermined reference point, and the resultant divided regions are given predetermined display properties.
