Patent number: 12039223Abstract: The present invention relates to a head-mountable information processing apparatus allowing a user to hear a desired sound even if ambient sound unnecessary for the user is present. An audio input interface includes sound microphones worn in the vicinity of the user's ear, collects the ambient sound that occurs outside the head-mountable information processing apparatus, and converts the ambient sound into an input audio signal. An audio output interface, including headphones, converts a generated output audio signal for output, and emits the audio output toward the user. Based on a volume level of the input audio signal and a volume level of the output audio signal, a controller determines whether or not a state in which the ambient sound is preventing the audio for output from being heard is occurring, and based on a determination result, the controller controls a sound emission operation of the audio output interface.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2019Date of Patent: July 16, 2024Assignee: MAXELL, LTD.Inventors: Sadao Tsuruga, Yasunobu Hashimoto, Kazuhiko Yoshizawa, Yoshinori Okada

Publication number: 20240019618Abstract: An infrared transmissive product includes a body. The body includes a base made of a transparent plastic having an infrared transmissivity and a black layer formed on a rear surface of the base in a transmission direction of infrared rays from a transmitting unit. The black layer includes a coating film layer. The coating film layer is formed by combining a transparent plastic and at least two types of dyes/pigments that have an infrared transmissivity and produce a black color when mixed together. The black layer has a thickness in a range from 5 ?m to 50 ?m. The black layer contains 50 to 150 parts by mass of dyes/pigments as a whole in relation to 100 parts by mass of transparent plastic.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: January 18, 2024Inventors: Yoshinori YOSHIZAWA, Shintaro OKAWA, Hiroaki ANDO, Seiichi SUZUKI

Patent number: 11366218Abstract: A vehicle sensor unit includes a millimeter wave radar device, an infrared sensor that is arranged at a position adjacent to the millimeter wave radar device, and a cover having a first cover portion and a second cover portion. The first cover portion is located in front of the millimeter wave radar device in a transmission direction of the millimeter waves to conceal the millimeter wave radar device and has millimeter wave transparency. The second cover portion is located in front of the infrared sensor in a transmission direction of the infrared light to conceal the infrared sensor and has infrared light transparency. The millimeter wave radar device and the infrared sensor are attached to the cover so that the whole vehicle sensor unit is configured as a single unit.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2019Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: TOYODA GOSEI CO., LTD.Inventors: Kazuhisa Takahashi, Koji Sakurai, Akihiro Misawa, Tadaoki Ichikawa, Hideto Maeda, Koji Okumura, Yasuhito Takeuchi, Shintaro Okawa, Hiroaki Ando, Yoshinori Yoshizawa
