  • Patent number: 9348337
    Abstract: An environment recognition guide system and method for guiding a movable medical equipment are disclosed. The environment recognition guide system includes a depth camera, an environment data storage device, and an object image recognition device. When the object image recognition device compares and determines an environment image pixel depth signal acquired by the depth camera matching predetermined object image pixel depth signals stored in the environment data storage device, the medical equipment is driven to move along a preset guide path. The movable medical equipment is further provided with collision protection function to prevent the medical equipment from collision with a front obstacle during the movement.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7574291
    Abstract: A new human interface scheme compresses geographical information, latitudes and longitudes, into a 10 symbols of 36 radices number systems which are based on 36s. It is to simplify the conventional representation of the latitudes and longitudes into much easier to be remembered and accessed by human beings, 10 symbols of 36 radices numbers, “Universal Geo Numbers”. The 5 symbols here can give the accuracy for latitudes and longitudes down to 5 meters which should be enough to accommodate the specifications for most geographic navigation related systems (i.e. GPS/GLONASS) and navigation equipments in the consumer market. The apparatus includes all means that comprise latitude/longitude information into the compressed codes for interfacing between human and machines.
