摘要:
An engine includes a throttle valve provided to an intake passage and a turbocharger, which includes an exhaust turbine and an intake compressor. The intake compressor is arranged in the intake passage. A waste gate valve operated using an electric actuator is provided to a bypass passage, which bypasses the exhaust turbine. A control apparatus for the engine includes a setting unit and a control unit. The setting unit sets the position of the waste gate valve at a target position in a normal operating condition of the engine. The target position is out of a position range, in which the waste gate valve is in a substantially full close position. The control unit controls the position of the waste gate valve such that the position of the waste gate valve coincides with the target position.

The present invention comprises: a pixel sampling unit that samples a stated pixel value from each of domains constituting an endoscopic image received by an image input/output control circuit; a shape-of-range estimating unit that estimates the shape of a range within the endoscopic image according to the continuity of the distribution of the pixels indicating the stated pixel value; and an inserting direction determining unit that determines an inserting direction within a body cavity, in which an endoscope should be further inserted, on the basis of the estimated shape. The inserting direction is displayed together with the endoscopic image, whereby the direction of a lumen can be determined reliably despite a simple configuration.

A printer embodied rendering algorithm for detecting and configuring positive and negative thin lines to be rendered such that when a bright-colored thin line on a dark background (negative thin line) is rendered and the result is stored in an RGB buffer in a printer system, the thin line thickness is increased only when the brightness of the line color is higher than a predetermined threshold value and the thin line thickness is smaller than a predetermined threshold value. According to the rendering algorithm, it is possible to prevent a negative thin line from disappearing or becoming thinner without increasing a positive thin line thickness, thereby improving the visibility of the thin line.

An image-reading apparatus expands a scanning area along a side at each of both ends in a width direction and a longitudinal direction of a paper P, when reading an image on the paper P fed into it by an image-reading unit comprising scanner heads 7a and 7b, in order to embrace the paper P entirely within the scanning area even when the paper P passes the image-reading unit while in a skew orientation, thereby enabling the apparatus to read the image without any defect, including the image in a marginal portion of the paper P.
摘要:
A required injection time tau is calculated at intervals of 60° CA, and an injection start timing is determined according to the required injection time tau at that time at intervals of 180° CA so that fuel is taken in the cylinder by a first injection end regulation value (ATDC 60° CA). After that, at the injection start timing, the fuel injection for the (latest) required injection time tau calculated just before the start of injection is started. During the fuel injection, the required injection time tau is also calculated at intervals of 60° CA. When the calculated required injection time tau is different from the value of last time, the fuel injection time is extended or shortened according to the change amount.
摘要:
An endoscopic system comprises an endoscope system, an endoscopic position detecting apparatus, and an image processing apparatus. The endoscope system enables endoscopic examinations. The endoscopic position detecting apparatus detects the three-dimensional positions of the distal part of the endoscope in a body cavity. The image processing apparatus estimates the shape of an object entity visualized by the endoscope. The image processing apparatus is used as a means for grasping the shape of an object entity in a body cavity. For this purpose, the insertion unit of an electronic endoscope is inserted into the body cavity of a patient lying down on a patient couch. Specifically, a main unit of the image processing apparatus is connected to a video processor over a cable, and receives an image signal (R, G, and B signals and a sync signal) sent from the video processor. The main unit of the image processing apparatus estimates relative shapes according to successive image signals representing the object entity and being sent from the video processor. The main unit of the image processing apparatus then calculates the absolute shape of the object entity according to the position data of the distal part of the electronic endoscope sent from a main unit of the endoscopic position detecting apparatus.
摘要:
A semiconductor device has a planar PN junction formed in a semiconductor substrate immediately below bonding pads subjected to mechanical stress. The P- and N-type semiconductor regions that form the PN junction have their respective width and impurity concentration set so that they are completely depleted when a given reverse voltage lower than an inherent breakdown voltage is applied across the PN junction. The PN junction is formed such that the P- and N-type semiconductor regions are each patterned into the shape of a comb and the fingers of one comb-shaped region are interleaved with those of the other comb-shaped region. Paired testing pads are provided which are electrically connected to the P- and N-type semiconductor regions of the PN junction. Application of a reverse voltage across the PN junction through the paired testing pads allows internal damage to the substrate due to mechanical stress to be detected with accuracy as a leakage current resulting from a soft breakdown of the PN junction.
