  • Patent number: 11924405
    Abstract: An evaluation method of an image stabilization effect of an imaging device includes calculating an evaluation value of the image stabilization effect on the basis of shutter speed values in case of which each of a reference shake amount theoretically calculated on the basis of a shake waveform applied to the imaging device and a measured shake amount calculated using an image captured in a state in which the imaging device is vibrated becomes a specified shake amount, and setting the specified shake amount. The setting includes calculating an image deterioration amount of the imaging device caused by something other than a shake from the outside, and selecting a determination level that defines the specified shake amount from a plurality of determination levels having different shake amounts on the basis of the image deterioration amount.

  • Publication number: 20230257960
    Abstract: A wheel loader includes: a front frame; a bucket; a boom having a distal end connected to bucket, and a proximal end rotatably supported by front frame; a sensor configured to measure a distance between boom and a loading target; and a controller configured to control an action of wheel loader. The controller causes wheel loader to perform a predetermined action for collision avoidance on condition that a distance to be measured by sensor when wheel loader travels takes a value less than or equal to a threshold value.

  • Patent number: 8820450
    Abstract: A wheel loader includes a cooling chamber, which houses a cooling fan and a cooling device, and a grill through which a cooling air obtained by the cooling fan passes. The grill includes a frame, which is provided by framing four side components, and a ventilation portion, which is made of a punching metal and which also has a plurality of air intakes. The ventilation portion is provided inside the frame, and it is a stepwise member with vertically arranged steps that are created by plastic working the punching metal. The ventilation portion has a three-dimensionally curved surface that bulges bidirectionally toward an outside of the cooling chamber.
