摘要:
A signal processing device includes a signal output circuit, a controller, and a corrector. The signal output circuit outputs a signal according to a physical quantity being input. The controller controls the signal output circuit. The corrector corrects a signal to be corrected. The signal to be corrected is output from the signal output circuit. The signal output circuit selectively performs one of first operation of outputting a characteristic signal that indicates characteristics of the signal output circuit and second operation of outputting a pseudo signal that is generated spuriously, according to control of the controller. The corrector corrects the signal to be corrected based on one of the characteristic signal and the pseudo signal output from the signal output circuit.

A vehicle environment monitoring apparatus is equipped with a monitored object detecting unit 26 which detects an object having possibility of contact by applying an object detecting algorithm for short range when the distance calculated from data on one disparity by the first distance calculating unit 24 is equal to or less than a predetermined distance, and detects the object having possibility of contact by applying an object detecting algorithm for long range when the distance is longer than the predetermined distance, using the distance between the object and the vehicle calculated from a disparity gradient by the second distance calculating unit 25.

Provided is an apparatus capable of, even when an object is moving, measuring the position of the object at a high accuracy. A vehicle periphery monitoring apparatus (10) calculates the change rate (Rate(t)) of the size of an object region between two times separated by a specified interval (ΔT). The specified interval (ΔT) is a time interval defined so that the shapes and postures of an object in images resemble or match each other to such an extent that it is possible to identify that the object is identical. Based on the change rage (Rate(t)) of the size of the object region during the specified interval (ΔT), it is possible to measure the distance from a vehicle (1) to the object or the position at a high accuracy even when the object is moving.

Provided is a vehicle periphery monitoring device capable of making a driver reliably recognize the shape of an object to which attention should be paid. According to an image processing unit (1) (vehicle periphery monitoring device), for example, when it is highly probable that the shape of the object is difficult to be visually recognized through the output image because of the reason that the object is present far from the vehicle or other reason, an enlarged image (Q′) of the object (Q) is displayed on an HUD (7) so as not to overlap with the object (Q).

Disclosed is an organic-inorganic composite material obtained by chemically modifying a microorganism-derived ceramic material with an organic group, and a process for producing the organic-inorganic composite material. The process is characterized by reacting a microorganism-derived ceramic material with at least one compound selected from the group consisting of silane coupling agents represented by formula (1), silane coupling agents represented by formula (2), and titanate coupling agents represented by formula (3). The organic-inorganic complex can be used in applications for immobilized catalysts and immobilized enzyme catalysts.

A method for manufacturing an ion implantation mask is disclosed which includes the steps of: forming an oxide film as a protective film over the entire surface of a semiconductor substrate; forming a thin metal film over the oxide film; and forming an ion-inhibiting layer composed of an ion-inhibiting metal over the thin metal film. The obtained ion implantation mask is used to form a deeper selectively electroconductive region.

A damper mechanism 4 has an input rotary body 2, a hub flange 6, a splined hub 3, a third friction washer 60, a bushing 70, and an output plate 90. The third friction washer 60 is non-rotatably mounted on the hub flange 6 with respect to the hub flange 6, and has a friction member that contacts the input rotary body 2 in the axial direction. The bushing 70 is axially disposed between the hub flange 6 and the third friction washer 60, and is mounted on the hub flange 6 and the third friction washer 60 to be incapable of rotation with respect to the third friction washer 60. The output plate 90 is disposed between the third friction washer 60 and the bushing 70 in the axial direction, and is supported by the splined hub 3 to be capable of rotating integrally with the splined hub 3.

The apparatus includes a first image portion extracting processing unit to extract first image portions (A1, A2) considered to be the head of a pedestrian from a currently picked up image and a previously picked up image by an infrared camera, a mask area setting processing unit to set mask areas (M1(0,0), M1(1,0), . . . , M1(5,8)) around the first image portion (A1) in the currently picked up image, and an object extracting processing unit to carry out pattern matching for the previously picked up image by a comparison pattern obtained through affine transformation of each mask area at a change rate (Rate) between the first image portions (A1, A2), and to set an area (Ar1) including the first image portion (A2) and a second image portion (M2(1,3), M2(2,3), . . . , M2(3,6)) where a displacement amount between the position (black point) corresponding to the centroid of the mask area and the matching position is smaller than a predetermined threshold value to be an image area of the monitored object.
