  • Patent number: 10142903
    Abstract: A relay gateway device includes a processor and a storage, in which when a packet transmission is performed between a first mobile device and a second mobile device and the second mobile device switches from the relay gateway device to another, the IP address of the second mobile device changes from a former IP address to a current IP address. When the first mobile device transmits a first packet to the second mobile device in which the destination address of the first packet is the former IP address, the processor of the relay gateway device modifies the destination address of the first packet into the current IP address according to the former IP address and the current IP address of the second mobile device in a list of the storage and then transmits the first packet to the second mobile device, thereby achieving a seamless transmission during handover.

    Abstract: A gas leakage detection method is provided. The method includes the followings steps. Receive an infrared video. Capture a first image and a second image from the infrared video, wherein the first image and the second image are consecutive image frames in order. Calculate a difference between the first image and the second image to generate a first difference image. Filter the first difference image with a filtering criterion to generate a first filtered image. Transform the first filtered image with a transfer function to generate a first detail image, wherein the absolute value of pixel value in the first detail image is greater than or equal to the absolute value of corresponding pixel value in the first filtered image. Superimpose the first detail image and the first image to generate a gas leakage enhanced image.
