  • Publication number: 20240126633
    Abstract: A method for responding to a command is adapted for a storage device. The method for responding to a command includes following steps of: sequentially receiving a first command and a second command by a bridge of the storage device from a host; executing the first command and the second command to generate a status completion signal or a status error signal by the bridge; and detecting an error state of at least one of the first command and the second command to execute a response mode or an idle mode by the bridge according to the error state so as to respond to the host.

  • Publication number: 20240097019
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, an epitaxial layer, a well region, a source region, a base region, a first JFET region, a second JFET region, a gate dielectric layer and a gate layer. The epitaxial layer is at a side of the substrate. The well region is in the epitaxial layer. The source region is in the well region. The base region is in the well region and adjacent to the source region. The first JFET region is adjacent to the well region. The second JFET region is in the first JFET region. A doping concentration of the second JFET region is higher than a doping concentration of the first JFET region. The gate dielectric layer is at a side of the epitaxial layer away from the substrate. The gate layer is at a side of the gate dielectric layer away from the epitaxial layer.

  • Patent number: 11580659
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for size estimation by image recognition of a specific target using a given scale. First, a reference objected is recognized in an image and the corresponding scale is established. Then the specific target is searched and the size of the specific target is estimated according to the acquired scale.

  • Patent number: 9728075
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a distributed automatic notification method for abnormality in remote massive monitors. If a data stream is not available, a disconnect prompt stream is generated. The data stream is converted to a continuous video. Then, the continuous video is divided into a plurality of single-frame images along the time axis, and each single-frame image is divided into a plurality of image grids. A plurality of pixels are next selected from each image grid. According to a plurality of image parameter values corresponding to the plurality of pixels, a statistical value of image grid parameter is calculated. Then whether an image grid is monochromatic can be judged according to the statistical value of image grid parameter. When a plurality of continuous single-frame images are judged to be monochromatic single-frame images, the color of the monochromatic single-frame images can be further judged.

  • Publication number: 20160132535
    Abstract: The present invention provides an acceleration method for database using index value operation and mixed-mode leveled cache. While building a database, an algorithm is adopted for operating a plurality of field conditions and giving an index value. At least a file record in the database satisfying the plurality of field conditions is related to the index value. While querying, the input plurality of field conditions are operated using the algorithm, giving the index value. According to the index value, the file records in the database satisfying the plurality of field conditions are listed. Thereby, the time for comparing the plurality of fields can be saved.

  • Patent number: 8184848
    Abstract: A liquid level detection method includes capturing an image of a liquid surface, a structural surface, and graduation markings provided on the structural surface using an image-capturing device to thereby obtain an initial image. Subsequently, the initial image is processed so as to generate a processed image, and a level reference value of the liquid surface is obtained from the processed image. The level reference value represents a height of the liquid surface in terms of inherent characteristics of the processed image. Lastly, a liquid level of the liquid surface is calculated based on a relative proportional relation among the level reference value, an overall height of the processed image in terms of the inherent characteristics of the processed image, and dimensions of any one of the initial and processed images relative to the graduation markings.
