Abstract:
A chart generation unit generates an adjustment chart, and a projection unit projects the adjustment chart onto a circular cylinder. A parameter acquiring unit acquires 12 parameters in total, relating to the positions of four corners and middle points of a top side and a bottom side of a chart and lateral expansion of the chart, the chart being input by a user through manipulations of an operation unit. A transform function determination unit calculates, from the total of 12 parameters, an accurate transform function for projecting an image onto the circular cylinder. An image conversion unit applies geometric transformation to the image based on the calculated transform function.

Abstract:
To increase the frequency of executing a loop closing process, and to reduce an accumulated error in a local device position, and the like. A rotational image picker of an autonomous movement device picks up an image while performing a rotational action. An image memory stores information on the picked-up image. A map memory stores a created map. A position estimator estimates the local device position. A similar image searcher searches, from the image memory, the image that has a similarity level of equal to or greater than a predetermined similarity level. A map corrector corrects the map stored in the map memory when the similar image searcher founds the image that has the similarity level of equal to or greater than the predetermined similarity level.
Abstract:
To quickly recover from a status in which a local device position estimation is unavailable. A movement processor of an autonomous movement device executes a drive process for a driver so as to move autonomously. A position estimator estimates the local device position. An estimation determiner determines whether or not the estimation result of the local device position by the position estimator is uniquely defined. A movement process controller controls the movement processor so as to move to a position where the estimation result of the local device position by the position estimator is uniquely defined when the estimation determiner determines that the estimation result is not defined uniquely.
Abstract:
According an embodiment, a display apparatus includes a display unit configured to display video corresponding to a video signal which is input, by using light which a light source emits; a determination unit configured to determine, from the video signal, presence/absence of necessity of light emission by the light source at every given time period; and a controller configured to vary and set the time period which is determined by the determination unit, in accordance with a determination result by the determination unit.
Abstract:
A driving apparatus drives a load so as to periodically change a physical quantity as a controlled object. The apparatus includes a calculation unit configured to calculate a deviation between the targeted value and a detection value detected by the detection unit, a storage unit configured to store past deviations calculated by the calculation unit, a determination unit configured to determine a manipulative variable corresponding to the physical quantity, by referring to a past deviation before a predetermined period, which has been stored in the storage unit, and a driving unit configured to drive the load, based on the manipulative variable determined by the determination unit.
Abstract:
In a projector, a controller sets a start timing and an end timing of a color transitional period which includes the color switch timing in a center of the color transitional period, and sets one of the start timing and the end timing to coincide with a light source switch timing at which the color of the light emitted by the light source unit switches. A projection drive unit controls the display drive of the display element based on the start timing and the end timing.
