An object of this invention is to allow quickly, reliably confirming an in-focus state with a simple arrangement. To achieve this object, an image sensing apparatus includes an image sensing element which photoelectrically converts an object image, a first image generation unit which generates a first image obtained from the image sensing element, a second image generation unit which generates a second image of a predetermined region from the image obtained by the image sensing element, and an exposure control unit which controls exposure so as to set the second image to appropriate brightness.

A door drive control apparatus capable of an accurate detection, without misidentifying an inverse overrun condition, and a door drive control method that improves safety. The door drive control apparatus includes a power converter that supplies power to a door drive linear motor, and operates the power converter by feedback control using a speed detection value and a speed command value of the door, and controls a speed of the door. The door drive control apparatus includes a speed trouble determiner, which outputs a door inverse direction speed trouble signal in the event that the speed command value of the door exceeds either a positive or negative first setting speed, and the speed detection value exceeds a second setting speed of a polarity opposite to that of the speed command value.

An N-channel transistor includes: an N-type source region, a gate electrode, a P-type body region, an N-type drain offset region, and a drain contact region, which is an N-type drain region. The transistor further includes a gate insulating film that has a thin oxide silicon film (a thin film portion) and a LOCOS film (a thick film portion). The body region has an impurity profile in which the concentration reaches a maximum value near the surface and decreases with distance from the surface. The drain offset region has an impurity profile that has an impurity-concentration peak in a deep portion located a certain depth-extent below the lower face of the LOCOS film.

A method and system for controlling vehicle door position having reduced power supply current requirements reduces the cost and weight of a vehicle and further reduces power consumption. The vehicle door control system includes an inverter for converting a DC power source to an AC voltage for driving the motor. The inverter is preceded by a boost converter that maintains a constant voltage at the inverter input, and a capacitor is provided between the converter and inverter for energy storage. Kinetic energy is returned from the door and mechanical portions of the motor through the inverter and stored on the capacitor, reducing the power required from the power source. Operation of the inverter and converter are controlled by timers and detection mechanisms that cease operation of the inverter and converter when the door is held in a fully closed or open position for a predetermined interval.

From CT images having captured an abdomen, a two-dimensional characteristic space is assumed, in which X and Y axes indicate CT values of image data taken in first and second time phases different from each other. In this space, a two-dimensional histogram concerning respective pixels located at the same position in the two time phases is taken as a sample distribution of pixels. A two-variable distribution function is applied to this sample distribution, so as to estimate a matrix distribution of pixels corresponding to the whole liver region. According to this matrix distribution, a range of CT value of pixels corresponding to the liver region is estimated.

摘要:
A method and system for controlling vehicle door position in improved reliability of a vehicle door electromechanical positioning components. The vehicle door control system includes an abnormality detector for detecting abnormal operation of the vehicle door by a deviation of expected door position and/or velocity. If abnormal operation is detected, operation of the electrical motor driving the door is ceased for a predetermined time period. Operation is then resumed if the abnormal condition has been removed. The control system may include a counter for counting a number of attempts to resume operation and further attempts to resume may be ceased if the counter exceeds a predetermined count value. The motor or door positioning system may include a locking device that locks the vehicle door at various positions and the control system use indications of a locked position indicator to determine whether or not to resume operation of the electric motor.

An image capture apparatus capable of generating a mirror image of a captured image and superimposing character patterns on the mirror image. The image capture apparatus includes an image capture device and a display device. The display device is rotatably coupled to the image capture device such that the display device can rotate between a normal position and self-portrait position. When in the self-portrait position, the display device displays a mirror image of the captured image, a superimposed character pattern, and an operation condition pattern. Furthermore, the image capture apparatus includes operation devices that are inhibited from operating by a user when in the self-portrait mode.
