Publication number: 20100265473Abstract: [Object]To provide a scan-type projection device that can lengthen a projecting time during a battery-powered operation. [Constitution] If a battery 600 is sufficiently charged, an actuator control part 120 drives a movable mirror 43 so as to form a normal turning angle, and an image signal processing part 130 drives a light source part 41 so as to irradiate laser lights with predetermined gradations to one pixel region for a normal irradiation time t1. Accordingly, an image with a normal screen size is displayed on a projection plane. Meanwhile, if the battery becomes low in remaining level, the actuator control part 120 drive the movable mirror 43 so as to form a small turning angle, and the image signal processing part 130 drives the light source part 41 so as to irradiate laser lights with predetermined gradations to one pixel region for a short irradiation time t2. Accordingly, an image with a reduced screen size is displayed on a projection plane.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 26, 2008Publication date: October 21, 2010Applicant: KYOCERA CORPORATIONInventors: Reiko Yamashita, Yoshihiro Nishimura

Patent number: 5245346Abstract: An interrogation responder system composed of a transmitter stationarily mounted in a certain fixed place and a receiver mounted on a mobile object. The receiver on the mobile side starts the operation when a power is supplied to the entire circuit in accordance with a wake-up signal from the transmitter on the fixed side so as to modulate the electromagnetic signal emitted from the transmitter on the fixed side in accordance with a predetermined code and reflect a response. This enables continuing bilateral communication of a command, data and so forth. By starting communication between the transmitter and the receiver by a direct wave of a carrier signal in a microwave band after sensing that the receiver on the mobile side has entered a good communication zone, secure communication is enabled at a sufficient electric field strength.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 1991Date of Patent: September 14, 1993Assignees: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyota Chuo Kenyusho, Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yoshihiro Nishimura, Kazuhiro Kozuka, Hidehiro Tomioka, Shin Yamamoto, Norikazu Ohta, Yoshihisa Harata, Souichi Isikawa, Takehiko Okuda
