  • Publication number: 20150262349
    Abstract: A free space positioning method for estimating an attitude angle of an object in a free space includes: capturing an image of a light source module that includes four light sources to generate a to-be-judged image; analyzing coordinates of the light sources in the to-be-judged image to obtain to-be-judged information; comparing the to-be-judged information with pre-stored light source orientation data to obtain candidate light source orientation data; and estimating an attitude angle of the object according to a pre-stored attitude angle corresponding to each of the candidate light source orientation data.

  • Publication number: 20120260853
    Abstract: A discontinuous capillary coating device is disclosed. At least one capillary tube is filled with a coating material. At least one flexible member is disposed in the capillary tube and is immersed in the coating material. The flexible member extends to the exterior of the capillary tube, guiding and outputting the coating material. At least one coating substrate receives a liquid coating film from the coating material via the flexible member. At least one capillary tube holder holds the capillary tube, guiding movement of the capillary tube. At least one traversing mechanism drives the capillary tube holder or coating substrate to move.
