  • Patent number: 11023697
    Abstract: The present invention provides an object storing apparatus, an object access method, an object obtaining service method, and an object indication method thereof. The object storing apparatus includes a cabinet body and a cabinet door, and storing positions are disposed inside the cabinet body. The object access method includes the following steps. Whether the cabinet door is opened is determined. In response to the cabinet door being opened, whether a scanning operation for a first external object is activated is determined. The first external object being not an existing external object at a storing position. In response to the scanning operation being activated, object storing is determined. In response to the existing external object being moved, object obtaining is determined. Accordingly, an automatic and convenient storing function can be provided.

  • Patent number: 10750144
    Abstract: A smart lighting device includes an illumination module, an image projection module and a projection mode switching module. The image projection module is pivoted to the illumination module and has a plurality of operation modes. The image projection module rotates relative to the illumination module and is switched among a standby mode and the operation modes. The projection mode switching module is configured to sense a rotation angle of the image projection module with respect to the illumination module. A brightness value of the illumination module and an image frame of the image projection module are adjusted according to the rotation angle.

  • Patent number: 10719138
    Abstract: An interactive electronic apparatus and an interactive method thereof are provided. The interactive electronic apparatus includes a main device and a casing. The main device is installed in a containing space of the casing. After the main device establishes a connection with the casing, the casing sends at least one of a first distance between the casing and an object to be sensed by a first distance sensor and a second distance between a bottom portion of the casing and a plane detected by a second distance sensor to the main device. The main device determines an interactive state of interaction with the interactive electronic apparatus based on at least one of a movement information sensed by a gravity sensor, the first distance and the second distance, and sends an interactive signal corresponding to the interactive state.
