Abstract:
An electric pot, which comprises: at least one light source, configured to emit light to liquid in the electric pot, wherein the light forms a first light pattern on a surface of the liquid; an image sensor, configured to detect the first light pattern; and a processor, configured to determine a liquid level of the liquid based on the first light pattern. Further, the processor can determine a solid height of the solid in the liquid based on a second light pattern. Via such electric pot, the liquid level or the solid height can be calculated in an optical manner, thus the user may feel more convenience while using the electric pot.
Abstract:
There is provided a handheld device for an interactive system. The handheld device identifies the timing that a user operates the handheld device to determine whether to turn on an indicating light for optical sensing to avoid the unnecessary power consumption.
Abstract:
There is provided an encoding and decoding method and an information recognition device using the same. A code block includes a center coding region and a peripheral coding region arranged around the center coding region. The encoding and decoding method uses the feature of at least one microdot included in the center coding region as codes. The encoding and decoding method uses the feature of at least one microdot included in the peripheral coding region as codes. The encoding and decoding method uses the relative feature between the center coding region and the peripheral coding region as codes. The information recognition device compares the read feature with pre-stored features to decode information such as position codes, object codes, parameter codes and control codes.
