Patent number: 11945285Abstract: The air discharge device includes a duct defining: a main flow path through which an air flow passes; and a main hole opened in a flat shape to discharge the air flow as a working air flow toward a downstream from the main flow path. A throttle portion is provided in the duct to reduce a flow path height of the main flow path from an upstream of the air flow toward a downstream of the air flow. A plurality of partitions are arranged to divide the main flow path in a major direction into a pair of side flow paths and at least one center flow path. The plurality of partitions are disposed in the duct such that a flow path width of the center flow path is reduced from the upstream of the air flow toward the downstream of the air flow.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Yasuhiro Takeuchi, Etsuro Yoshino, Yuuji Okamura, Jun Yamaoka, Masaharu Sakai, Yusuke Komatsubara, Yasuhiko Niimi, Tatsuya Yoshida, Hidetaka Nomoto

Patent number: 11887349Abstract: An image acquisition unit (2) acquires an image obtained by capturing at least eyes of a target person. An object specifying unit (4) specifies an object in a line-of-sight direction of the target person using the acquired image. An incident light amount calculation unit (6) calculates an incident light amount representing an amount of light incident on the eyes of the target person using the acquired image. A reference pupil size determination unit (8) determines a reference pupil size based on the calculated incident light amount. A pupil size calculation unit (10) calculates a pupil size of the target person using the acquired image. An interest determination unit (12) determines an interest of the target person in the object by comparing the determined reference pupil size with the calculated pupil size.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2019Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: NEC CORPORATIONInventors: Masato Tsukada, Hiroshi Imai, Chisato Funayama, Yuka Ogino, Ryuichi Akashi, Keiichi Chono, Emi Inui, Yasuhiko Yoshida, Hiroshi Yamada, Shoji Yachida, Takashi Shibata
