Publication number: 20240069050Abstract: A testing device includes: at least one light source that can be lit at different positions; a light source control unit that controls the lighting of the light source(s); a rotation mechanism that rotates a chip; an imaging unit that acquires a plurality of individual images by shooting, at each of the different positions at different times respectively, the chip located, by being rotated by the rotation mechanism, in an illuminated area illuminated by the light source(s); an image generation unit that generates an analysis image based on the plurality of individual images; and an information acquisition unit that acquires target object information on the state of the test object or of the storage container based on the analysis image. The brightness value of each pixel in the analysis image is calculated using the brightness values of the pixels at the same position among the plurality of individual images.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2021Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Yasunori MATSUDA, Yuji FUJIOKA

Patent number: 9902148Abstract: An ejection device capable of preventing a discharge part from contacting an object is provided. The ejection device has a discharge part, a light projecting part, a light receiving part and a controller. The discharge part discharges a droplet to an object. The light projecting part projects a light between the discharge part and the object to form a light path across the object, and the light receiving part receives the light projected by the light projecting part. The controller stops driving the discharge part when the light receiving part does not receive the light.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2016Date of Patent: February 27, 2018Assignee: FUNAI ELECTRIC CO., LTD.Inventors: Minghui Liu, Yasunori Matsuda

Patent number: 9789683Abstract: An ejection device includes a discharger that discharges a droplet on an object; a motor that moves the discharger; an imaging device that captures an image of the object; and a controller that: controls the discharger and the motor; and receives the captured image from the imaging device. The discharger outputs a position adjusting mark on the object before discharging the droplet on the object. The controller adjusts a discharge position of the droplet based on the captured image of the object with the position adjusting mark.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2016Date of Patent: October 17, 2017Assignee: Funai Electric Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yasunori Matsuda

Patent number: 7151559Abstract: When a TS (Transport Stream) generator generates a TS, the TS is modulated by a signal modulator and outputted to a tuner set. In the tuner set, various noises generated by a noise source are added to an input signal, reception processing is performed, and then the resultant signal is outputted to a LVDS (Law Voltage Differential Signal) converter. The LVDS converter converts the input signal into a LVDS of the same format as TS, and outputs the LVDS to an error rate measuring device. The error rate measuring device find a difference between the generated TS and the inputted LVDS while adjusting a synchronization and outputs the difference to a personal computer. The personal computer compares the inputted difference with a predetermined BER (Bit Error Rate), and determines performance regarding the reception process of the tuner set based on the comparison result.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2003Date of Patent: December 19, 2006Assignee: Funai Electric Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yasunori Matsuda
