20110032717 | Light control device for vehicles - A light control device for vehicles that controls a light axis direction of a headlight in the vehicle has an inclination acquisition means that acquires a detection result of an inclination of the vehicle, and a light axis direction changing means that changes a direction of the light axis by a response modified by a predetermined filter, so that the light axis directions of the headlights approaches an angle beforehand set to align it with the road surface according to the acquired inclination of the vehicle. | 02-10-2011 |
20140286025 | VEHICLE HEADLIGHT CONTROL DEVICE AND METHOD, AND VEHICLE HEADLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM - An absolute pitch is outputted from an inclination sensor. A gradient related quantity is outputted from a gradient related quantity detection sensor for detecting a gradient related quantity that can specify a gradient of a road surface. The absolute pitch angle and the gradient related quantity are acquired by a vehicle headlight control apparatus. Based on the absolute pitch angle and the gradient related quantity, a pitch angle of a vehicle with respect to a road surface is calculated by the vehicle headlight control apparatus. Based on the pitch angle, an optical axis direction of the head lamp is controlled by the vehicle headlight control apparatus. | 09-25-2014 |
20150151670 | APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING ILLUMINATION RANGE OF VEHICLE LIGHTS - A light control system acquires presence information that indicates whether or not another vehicle is present in a lateral or rear direction relative to an own vehicle. If presence information indicates the presence of another vehicle, the illumination range of the headlights of the vehicle is changed so as to be narrower. Thus, when another vehicle enters the illumination range from a lateral direction relative to the vehicle equipped with the system, the illumination range of the lights of the vehicle is changed to a narrower range before the entry into the illumination range. | 06-04-2015 |

20110218453 | Machine control device, machine system, machine control method, and recording medium storing machine control program - A machine control device includes: first decoders for estimating, from brain signal information, which one of body movements a user performs or images, based on learning using pairs of movements performed by the user and brain signal information, the body movements going toward one of first to nth body postures; second decoders for estimating from the brain signal information, an correct rate on the body movement estimation, based on learning using pairs of correct rates of the estimation of body movements and the brain signal information; and electric prosthetic arm control section for controlling an electric prosthetic arm to change stepwise its posture between first to nth postures via at least one intermediate posture therebetween, the first to nth postures corresponding to the first to nth body postures. The first decoders perform the estimation only when the estimated correct rate exceeds a threshold. When the first decoders estimate that the body movements goes toward a body posture different from the current one, the electric prosthetic arm control section changes the posture of the machine by performing a part of substeps of change from one of the first to nth body postures toward the posture associated with the body posture toward which the estimated body movement goes. This configuration allows a user to control a brain-signal-based machine to perform a natural movement without a long-term training and much brain information. | 09-08-2011 |
20150332016 | BRAIN INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND BRAIN INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - Conventionally, it is impossible to detect an object to which a person feels a similar sense based on latent consciousness. Detection of an object to which a person feels a similar sense is realizable by a brain information processing apparatus using high-level brain activity information indicating a latent consciousness. The brain information processing apparatus has stored therein one or more pieces of brain information that includes brain activity information, which is information on a brain activation level, and object information, and includes: an accepting unit that accepts brain activity information; an object information acquisition unit that acquires one or more pieces of object information associated with one or more pieces of brain activity information that is approximate to the brain activity information to the extent of satisfying a predetermined condition; and an output unit that outputs the object information acquired by the object information acquisition unit. | 11-19-2015 |
