Patent number: 12210337Abstract: A stored control program includes subperiods into which an operation period from a start to an end of an operation of an automated manufacturing machine is divided. Each subperiod is assigned with an actuator to act and action information about the actuator. The subperiods are sequentially selected one by one as a control target, and feedback control is performed on an action of the actuator assigned to the selected subperiod. This reduces the number of actuators controlled at the same time for controlling the operation of an automated manufacturing machine including many actuators. The control program can thus be executed promptly with an operation control apparatus having ordinary processing capability.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2022Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Assignee: OPTON Co.

Image forming apparatus having transmission function, and control method and storage medium therefor
Patent number: 10263983Abstract: An image forming apparatus capable of maintaining user's convenience in performing transmission while utilizing a transmission setting even when destinations usable for the transmission according to the transmission setting are restricted to a predetermined destination such as an authenticated user's address in order to enhance security. In a case where destinations usable for the transmission according to the transmission setting are restricted to an authenticated user's address and where at least one transmission destination registered in the transmission setting differs from the user's address, the at least one transmission destination registered in the transmission setting is rewritten to the authenticated user's address.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2014Date of Patent: April 16, 2019Assignee: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Hiroyoshi Takamiya -
Patent number: 10146197Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for creating a prototype. The methods include at least: receiving a generated prototype, sensing a trigger on the received prototype, generating a message comprising an identifier for identifying an external terminal according to the sensing of the trigger, determining, when a first message and a second message of a plurality of generated messages are generated sequentially before an expiry of a preset message transmission time, the second message representing a transmission message, providing to a bridge application matched to the identifier, the generated message, after the expiry of the preset message transmission time, generating a control command based on the generated message, using the bridge application, and transmitting the generated control command to the external terminal, wherein the control command includes a command for enabling the external terminal to output a preset response in response to the control command.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2016Date of Patent: December 4, 2018Assignee: STUDIO XID KOREA, INC.Inventors: Soo Kim, Jae Won Song

Patent number: 9996520Abstract: A method, system, and/or computer program product pins an area on a user interface. One or more processors receive a pinning signal from a user. The pinning signal defines a pinned area on a user interface. The pinned area is an unrestricted freeform area that is defined by the user. One or more processors then receive a scrolling input, which causes an unpinned area on the user interface to move on the user interface, while the pinned area is displayed z-indexed above the unpinned area that has moved, and while the pinned area remains in a fixed position on the user interface.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2015Date of Patent: June 12, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Gabrielle Z.
