  • Patent number: 10824936
    Abstract: A recycling system and a method based on deep-learning and computer vision technology are disclosed. The system includes a trash sorting device and a trash sorting algorithm. The trash sorting device includes a trash arraying mechanism, trash sensors, a trash transfer mechanism and a controller. The trash arraying mechanism is configured to process trash in a batch manner. The controller drives the trash arraying mechanism according to the signals of trash sensors and controls the sorting gates of the trash sorting mechanism to rotate. The trash sorting algorithm makes use of the images of trash, wherein the images are taken by cameras in different directions. The trash sorting algorithm includes a dynamic object detection algorithm, an image pre-processing algorithm, an identification module and a voting and selecting algorithm. The identification module is based on the convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and may at least identify four kinds of trash.

  • Patent number: 9881422
    Abstract: A virtual reality system is provided. The virtual reality system includes a host device, a transmission cable, and a head mounted display apparatus worn by a user and coupled to the host device via the transmission cable. The head mounted display apparatus includes a multimedia module, a multi-sensing module, and a peripheral hub. The multimedia module receives multimedia content from the host device via the transmission cable, and displays a video part of the multimedia content. The multi-sensing module obtains sensing information regarding the head mounted display apparatus, the user and an obstruction. The peripheral hub provides the sensing information to the host device via the transmission cable. At least one virtual object of the video part of the multimedia content is adjusted in response to the sensing information.

  • Patent number: 9438785
    Abstract: An electronic device and a focus adjustment method thereof are provided. The electronic device and the focus adjustment method thereof pre-process the image frames captured to provide focus information of the image frames and adjust the focus according to the focus information. Therefore, as the subject followed or the current scene is out of focus in response to movement of the electronic device, the present invention can immediately obtain the change of focus via the focus information and effectively adjust the focus according to the focus information.
