Patent number: 12046492Abstract: A transportation monitoring method is provided, including the following steps. A monitoring image of a robot blade outside a carrier is captured from a fixed field of view by an image capturing device. The robot blade is configured to move an item into or out of the carrier. Next, a sampling area is obtained from the monitoring image by a processing device. Also, a tilting state of the robot blade is determined according to the sampling area by the processing device. When the processing device determines that the robot blade is tilted, the processing device sends a warning signal. A transportation monitoring system is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2021Date of Patent: July 23, 2024Assignee: Winbond Electronics Corp.Inventors: Yi-Ta Chen, Wen-Chin Hsieh

Publication number: 20160026700Abstract: Methods for case management in a production environment. An update to an existing case management solution running in a production environment is received. A collection of existing case instances created before the update was made to the existing case management solution is retrieved. Each case instance in the received collection of existing case instances is processed to add missing tasks to the case instance and to update a case instance structure for each case instance. Each processed case instance is saved.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2015Publication date: January 28, 2016Inventors: Laurent Dubois, Huzefa A. Hakim, David A. Hanson, Wen-Chin Hsieh, Lauren A.

Publication number: 20090261914Abstract: An oscillator circuit. A gain stage element is coupled between both terminals of the crystal. The gain stage element provides a transconductance for oscillation according to a current provided by a current source, and outputs a periodic signal through an output terminal. A bias element is coupled between an input terminal and the output terminal of the gain stage element to bias the gain stage element. A first capacitor is coupled to the input terminal of the gain stage element. A second capacitor is coupled to the output terminal of the gain stage element. A controller detects the periodic signal, and adjusts the current when the periodic signal is obtained.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2008Publication date: October 22, 2009Applicant: MEDIATEK INC.Inventors: Hueh-Wu Kao, Pi-Fen Chen, Wen-Chin Hsieh
