Yi-Yu HSIEH has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11475585
    Abstract: An antenna adjustment device and an antenna adjustment method for a mobile vehicle, in which main structure includes the mobile vehicle having a directional antenna, a photographic element and an epipolar line analysis component. The epipolar line analysis component establishes data connection with the directional antenna and the photographic element. The photographic element includes a photographic part and an image receiving processing part. With the above structure, the user can use the photographic element with the directional antenna to define an epipolar line of optimal connection efficiency with the base station on the image receiving processing part. When the connection is needed, the mobile vehicle is moved for adjusting an image of the base station imaged by the image receiving processing part to align to the epipolar line, so as to get the optimal connection efficiency.

  • Patent number: 10403002
    Abstract: A method for transforming between physical and virtual images includes: disposing an image capturing device at a position that does not coincide with line-of-sight of a user; providing at least three physical distance references on the line-of-sight of the user at different distances from the user, and capturing images of the at least three physical distance references by the image capturing device so as to obtain an epipolar line formed by at least three virtual distance references corresponding respectively to the images; and obtaining a first relation by a computing unit according to a position corresponding relationship between the at least three physical distance references and the at least three virtual distance references. By using the image capturing device that is at a fixed position relative to the user and does not coincide with the line-of-sight of the user, the physical position of an object is obtained.

  • Patent number: 10130252
    Abstract: A trial frame includes a trial frame body and at least one measurement subject having a visual invariant geometric characteristic. The trial frame body has at least one key parameter. The measurement subject is disposed on the trial frame body and collaborates with a measurement method. A two-dimensional image of the measurement subject is recorded by an image capturing device when the trial frame body fits to a user, and the key parameter is deduced from the two-dimensional image of the measurement subject.

  • Patent number: 9990739
    Abstract: A method and device for fisheye camera automatic calibration is disclosed. A first straight line and a second straight line are respectively moved to generate a first fisheye line and a second fisheye line being straight lines. At least two symmetric points are generated on the second straight line based on an intersection of the first straight line and the second straight line as a symmetric central point, so as to correspondingly generate at least two fisheye symmetric points. The second straight line rotates until a distance between the first fisheye line and each of two fisheye symmetric points is equal. Then, central intersection coordinates, fisheye symmetric coordinates, a fisheye symmetric distance are retrieved and used to calculate fisheye parameters.
