  • Patent number: 11983680
    Abstract: An intelligent monitoring system for waste disposal and the method thereof are provided, which include a plurality of operational devices and stages. First, a transportation stage is performed to loading a transport vehicle with a waste so as to transport the waste to a disposal station for further treatment. A camera and a sensor for detecting abnormal conditions are installed any one of the operational devices or installed in the operational path of any one of the operational devices. The camera records the videos of the operational stages, captures the images from the videos and recognizes the images in order to determine whether the abnormal conditions occur in any one of the operational stages. Alternatively, the camera is triggered to capture the images and recognize the images after the abnormal conditions are detected by the sensor in order to determine whether the abnormal conditions actually occur.

  • Patent number: 11801813
    Abstract: A stably braking system and a method using the same control wheels on a single axle of a ground vehicle. Firstly, at least one of a wheel deceleration and an actual slip of each of the wheels is calculated. Hydraulic control commands are generated when a braking operation is performed in response to a braking indication signal and it is detected that the wheel deceleration or the actual slip is higher. The hydraulic control commands are configured to control a hydraulic braking system to adjust the wheel speed. When the ground vehicle drives in a straight line or turns with a first pose physical quantity, the hydraulic control command with a low priority is replaced by the hydraulic control command with a high priority and the hydraulic braking system is controlled to adjust the wheel speeds based on the identical hydraulic control commands.

  • Patent number: 9116784
    Abstract: The present invention proposes a system and method for preventing a vehicle from rolling over in curved lane. The road images captured by the image capture devices are used to calculate road information. The road information together with the vehicular dynamic information, such as the speed and acceleration of the vehicle are used to predict the rollover angle and lateral acceleration of the vehicle moving on the curved lane. The height of the gravity center and critical rollover speed of the vehicle moving on the curved lane are worked out and used to define a vehicular rollover index. If the vehicular rollover index exceeds a preset value, the system warns the driver or directly controls the speed of the vehicle to prevent the vehicle from rolling over in the curved lane.

  • Patent number: 8941375
    Abstract: A contactless detection apparatus has a first magnet ring, a second magnet ring, a first magnetic sensor, a second magnetic sensor and a controller. The two magnet rings are respectively mounted on two ends of a torsion shaft. When the torsion shaft rotates, the controller detects the magnetic fields of the two magnet rings through the two magnetic sensors. The controller calculates a twisting torque exerted on the torsion shaft and a rotational angle of the torsion shaft according to the detected magnetic fields at the same time. The detection apparatus of the invention has simple structure. The magnetic fields of both magnet rings do not interfere with each other, such that the detection result of the invention is accurate.

  • Patent number: 8914194
    Abstract: A stimulus-based steering sensor device and a method for the same are disclosed. The sensor device comprises at least one driving wheel, a processor, two driven wheels, and two resolvers. The processor generates a stimulus signal and has a signal-angle lookup table. The driving wheel contacts two driven wheels. When following the rotation of a steering column, the driving wheel drives two driven wheels to rotate at different speeds. Two resolvers connect with the processor, respectively engage with two driven wheels, receive the stimulus signal, and respectively output two first sinusoidal signals to the processor according to the rotational speeds of two driven wheels. The processor analyzes two first sinusoidal signals to obtain two second sinusoidal signals having different periods, and uses the second sinusoidal signals and the signal-angle lookup table to obtain a first absolute angle value of the rotation of the steering wheel.
