摘要:
A capacitance detecting circuit includes a code generator for generating code having orthogonality in chronological order. A column-line driver drives the plurality of column lines based on the code by dividing the column lines into a first column line group and a second column line group. A capacitance detector, which is connected to the row line, converts the total of currents generated in capacitances at the intersections with the driven column lines into a voltage signal and outputs the converted voltage signal. A decoding computation unit determines the voltages corresponding to the capacitances at the intersections for each of the column line groups by performing product sum computation between the measured voltages and the code. The column-line driver drives the first column line group and the second column line group by complementary voltages according to the code or information indicating the inversion of the code.

A capacitance detector, used in an area sensor having a matrix of detection lines, detects minute capacitances near intersections of a plurality of column lines and a plurality of row lines. The capacitance detector includes a column-line driver for outputting to the column lines a signal that rises in response to a first voltage and then falls in response to a second voltage; a row-voltage outputter for outputting a third voltage corresponding to a current for charging the capacitance at each of the intersections when the column lines are driven by the first voltage and for outputting a fourth voltage corresponding to a current for discharging the capacitance at each of the intersections when the column lines are driven by the second voltage; and a calculator for calculating the difference between the third voltage and the fourth voltage. The difference is calculated at each of the intersections.

A remote coordinate designating device has a remote control with a light emitting device for emitting light, and a controller for detecting a designated position by receiving light from the remote control at a distance from the remote control. One cycle of a light signal from the light emitting device is composed of switch data and a coordinate detection timing header at the head, and a coordinate detection carrier. The switch data and the coordinate detection timing header use the same frequency as the normal remote control frequency band, and the frequency of the coordinate detection carrier is lower than the frequency of the switch data and the coordinate detection timing header. The switch data contains on-off information about a switch for pointing, and coordinate detection is started when a predetermined time has passed from the rise of a burst portion in the switch data.

In a capacitance detecting circuit, changes in capacitances at intersections between a plurality of row lines and a column line are detected as voltages. The capacitance detecting circuit includes a column-line driver for driving the column line. A code generator generates code having orthogonality in chronological order. A selection synthesizer selects a certain number of row lines from the plurality of row lines by using the code and synthesizes measured voltages at the intersections between the selected row lines and the driven column line so as to output the synthesized measured voltage. A decoding computation unit separates the measured voltages corresponding to the capacitances at the intersections by performing product sum computation between the synthesized measured voltage and the code.

A pair of detecting stations A.sub.i and A.sub.-i on a plane H extends along an axis X. Each of the detecting stations is provided with an iris member and a divided light receiving section. Received light outputs at each of the light receiving elements are defined as R.sub.i, L.sub.i, R.sub.-i, and L.sub.-i, and the following equation is calculated to enable a coordinate (x.sub.0, z.sub.0) of the moving light source to be attained by a simple calculation: S.sub.i =(R.sub.i -L.sub.i)/(R.sub.i +L.sub.i)+(R.sub.-i -L.sub.-i)/(R.sub.-i +L.sub.-i); T.sub.i =(R.sub.i -L.sub.i)/(R.sub.i +L.sub.i)-(R.sub.-i -L.sub.-i)/(R.sub.-i +L.sub.-i).

摘要:
A light-emitting diode device includes a light-emitting diode, a lens cap made of synthetic resin, for covering the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting diode means, and a refractive layer formed between the light-emitting surface and the lens cap, the refractive layer having a composition, such as an air layer, with a refractive index different from the refractive index of said synthetic resin. In this arrangement the relationship between the light intensity and directional angles is shown by characteristics in which the light intensity is maximum in the center of the directional angles, and is relatively flat in the form of a sinusoid in the wide range of the directional angles. Therefore, even when the characteristics of each light-emitting diode is not verified, a predetermined light-signal transmission range is readily obtained without being affected by a scatter in the characteristics.

A pressure-sensitive capacitive sensor includes a sensing unit in which a plurality of column wires and a plurality of row wires are formed in a matrix, a detecting signal generator, and filters. Capacitances at intersections between the column wires and the row wires change in accordance with externally applied pressure. The detecting signal generator sequentially outputs pulse signals of a predetermined frequency to the column wires of the sensing unit. The filters are connected to the respective row wires of the sensing unit and extract amplitudes of signals of the predetermined frequency. The amplitude is proportional to the capacitance at the intersection.

In a relative angle detecting device, plural received light outputs are subjected to time division. Received light detection voltage is shifted by a phase shifter and sampling pulse is formed, and peak detecting means holds peak value of received light output based on the sampling pulse. In a CPU, peak value of each voltage is stored in a memory, and the stored value is operated thereby information regarding relative position between a light source and a light reception element is operated. Utilizing the time division, each received light detection voltage can be processed in the same condition, and the peak value of each received light output can be detected with high precision.

An apparatus is disclosed for inclination detection wherein infrared transmitted signal, signal groups S1, S2, S3, . . . including a leader code, a parity bit and bits for data transfer are sequentially transmitted with an interval time t3. At each bit of the signal group S1, "1" and "0" of a binary signal expressing the data are not inverted, at the signal group S2, "1"and "0" expressing the data are inverted, and inversion and non-inversion are repeated every signal group. At bits of each signal group, since a time length expresses "1" and "0", a total time length of each signal group is different from that of other signal group. By repeating sets of inverted and non-inverted signal groups, the time length of each set is averaged, and hence, data processing can be made more efficient.
摘要:
A relative-angle detection apparatus which has an infrared-signal transmitting unit and an infrared-signal receiving unit. The transmitting unit includes a first light-emitting device array formed of a plurality of light-emitting devices disposed in a direction substantially coinciding with the fiducial axis for angle detection, and a second light-emitting device array formed of a plurality of light-emitting devices located to be slightly angled in the different directions with respect to the axis. The devices of the first light-emitting device array generate a continously-output first infrared signal in which an infrared signal is intermittently modulated by a first frequency and also modulated by a second frequency higher than the first frequency. The devices of the second light-emitting device array generate a second infrared signal in which an infrared signal is modulated by the first frequency and also divided into a plurality of signals so as to be output at different timings. The receiving unit detects and amplifies the first frequency contained in the first and second infrared signals and executes signal-processing on the amplified first frequency, thereby detecting the angle of the transmitting unit relative to the receiving unit.
