  • Patent number: 11119625
    Abstract: A remote control device for a manufacturing equipment and a method for detecting manual control are provided. The method for detecting the manual control on the manufacturing equipment includes the following steps. A cursor pattern is created. When the user interface is automatically controlled, a history location of the cursor pattern shown on a user interface of the manufacturing equipment is detected to obtain a location distribution. The location distribution is stored. A current location of the cursor pattern shown on the user interface is detected. If the current location is not within the location distribution, it is deemed that the user interface is manually controlled.

  • Patent number: 8208018
    Abstract: A method for measuring brightness uniformity of a panel is disclosed. The method includes steps of: dividing the panel into a plurality of areas, measuring brightness of each area, calculating each area of an average value K the brightness differences between the area and the other adjacent areas, and comparing the value K with a predetermined value. When the value K is greater than the predetermined value, it indicates that the brightness difference between the area and the adjacent areas exceeds a uniformity threshold. When the value K is smaller than the predetermined value, it indicates that the brightness difference between the area and the adjacent areas is below the uniformity threshold. The entire panel is evaluated to ensure accuracy of measuring results.
