Publication number: 20200376678Abstract: A visual servo system includes a robot that handles an object, an irradiation device that irradiates light onto the object, and a camera that captures an image of the object and outputs a current image. The visual servo system reads, from a storage medium, a target image that is assumed to be captured by the camera when the object is in target position and attitude, and the light irradiated from the irradiation device is striking the object. The visual servo system calculates control input to be inputted to the robot based on a difference in luminance value between the current image and the target image, and inputs the control input to the robot. The light that is irradiated by the irradiation device is light that has a luminance distribution based on a reference image in winch a luminance value changes along a predetermined direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 29, 2020Publication date: December 3, 2020Inventors: Takuto YANO, Masahiro NONO, Kazuhiro KOSUGE, Shogo ARAI, Yoshihiro MIYAMOTO

Patent number: 9921481Abstract: The present invention provides a composition enabling to form a fine negative photoresist pattern free from troubles such as surface roughness, bridge defects or unresolved defects, and the invention also provides a pattern formation method employing that composition. The composition is used for miniaturizing a resist pattern by applying to a negative resist pattern from a chemically amplified resist composition and fattening the resist pattern. This composition comprises a polymer comprising a repeating unit having an amino group or a polymer mixture, and a solvent, and further comprises a specific amount of an acid or indicates a specific pH value. The polymer mixture comprises polymers whose HSP distance, determined from Hansen solubility parameter, is 3 or more. In the pattern formation method, the composition is cast on a negative photoresist pattern beforehand obtained by development with an organic solvent developer and is then heated to form a fine pattern.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2014Date of Patent: March 20, 2018Assignee: AZ Electronic Materials (Luxembourg) S.à r.l.Inventors: Kazuma Yamamoto, Yoshihiro Miyamoto, Takashi Sekito, Tatsuro Nagahara

Patent number: 9521433Abstract: Intended is to obtain a video encoding device, a video encoding method, and a video encoding program which enable to prevent reduction in compression efficiency caused by drastic changes in symbol occurrence probabilities in context adaptive coding, and a video decoding device, a video decoding method and a decoding program corresponding thereto. The video data 101 is input into video encoding device on a macroblock basis, and after quantization, the PCM determination unit 139 determines whether the coded data 123 is PCM mode or not. Even when the coded data 123 is PCM mode, the context updating unit 301 executes context updating processing so as to improve efficiency of binary arithmetic coding. According to the determination of PCM mode or non PCM mode, the third switch 148 supplies either binary arithmetic coding output or PCM coding output as its output data.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2008Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignee: NEC CORPORATIONInventors: Keiichi Chono, Yoshihiro Miyamoto

Patent number: 9435427Abstract: In the present invention, an operation knob is provided with a knob outer section that forms an outer shell, and a knob inner section into which one edge of a lever section is inserted. The knob inner section has a claw section that allows insertion when the lever section is inserted, and once the lever section has been inserted, hooks the lever section towards the inner side of the knob inner section. A groove section is formed in the lever section and extends in a direction perpendicular to the axis direction of the lever section. The knob outer section is made up of two parts, which are an outer casing and a knob cover. The knob cover is provided with protruding sections, which protrude towards the outer casing and fit into the groove section when the lever section is attached to the knob inner section.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2012Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Assignees: Honda Motor Co., Ltd., Atsumitec Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshihiro Miyamoto, Kunihiro Koike, Satoshi Hattori, Shuji Muraki

Patent number: 8416850Abstract: When entropy-encoding a converted quantized amount obtained by converting an image into a frequency region and quantizing it, if the output code bit quantity of the entropy encoding exceeds a predetermined amount, an image obtained by rebuilding the converted quantized value is outputted from an image encoding device. This guarantees an encoding delay caused by re-encoding to be a constant time without increasing the circuit size of the encoding device and provides an image encoding device of a subjectively high quality.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2006Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignee: NEC CorporationInventors: Keiichi Chono, Yuzo Senda, Yoshihiro Miyamoto
