20080269013CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - “Threshold A is substituted in a power-on state, “threshold B”, which is lower than “threshold A”, is substituted in a power-off state, and “threshold C”, which is lower than “threshold B” is substituted during a brake operation, as a rapid deceleration determination threshold. The rotational speed of an output shaft of an automatic transmission and the rapid deceleration determination threshold are compared to determine whether a vehicle is rapidly decelerating. The engagement state of a lock-up clutch is controlled based on whether the vehicle is rapidly decelerating.10-30-2008

20100292048CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - When it is determined to perform nth to (n+1)th coast downshift during nth to (n+1)th power-off upshift, an ECU starts increasing control to increase the hydraulic pressure of an engage-side element A in a predetermined mode and maintains the hydraulic pressure of a release-side element B at a value at which the increasing control is started until a predetermined period of time elapses from when the start of the increasing control. When a turbine rotational speed does not increase even after the predetermined period of time has elapsed, as the turbine rotational speed decreases below a value lower by a predetermined value than a synchronous rotational speed in the (n+1)th gear, the ECU executes feedback control over the hydraulic pressure of the element B so that the turbine rotational speed becomes the value lower by the predetermined value than the synchronous rotational speed in the (n+1)th gear.11-18-2010

When the brake enters the engaged state, the relative rotation between the inner race and the outer race of a one-way clutch is limited.09-29-2011

20110320097CONTROL APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - When a post-direct shift gear position does not match a target gear position during a direct shift but before engagement of an input clutch for the post-direct shift gear position begins, an ECU executes engagement control on a reaction brake for the new target gear position instead of executing engagement control on a reaction brake for the post-direct shift gear position, and executes engagement control on an input clutch for the new target gear position instead of executing engagement control on an input clutch for the post-direct shift gear position.12-29-2011

20080316336IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS - An image pickup apparatus that performs accurate correction processing for a pixel that outputs a non-reproducible high-level signal having a continuity with respect to an adjacent pixel is provided. The image pickup apparatus extracts data corresponding to a pixel of an image pickup element that generates an output value equal to or more than a predetermined value, and determines, within a predetermined area of a captured image, whether a predetermined number or more of pixels that generate an output value having the predetermined level are continuously adjacent to one another in the same direction, irrespective of the color received by the pixel. Then, if it is determined that the predetermined number or more of pixels are continuously adjacent to one another in the same direction, the pixels are indicated as targets and the outputs of the target pixels are corrected.12-25-2008

A signal processing circuit reads out an n-th line of an image subjected to collective reset/collective transfer readout, reads out an n-th line of an image subjected to rolling readout, and subtracts an output of a pixel section of a particular column of the n-th line of the image subjected to the rolling readout from an output of a corresponding pixel section of the image subjected to the collective reset/collective transfer readout. The signal processing circuit determines that a flicker is generated, if there is a differential value not less than a predetermined threshold value between each pair of outputs from the pixel sections of the same line and if there is a periodicity in an image vertical direction.05-14-2009
