| 20100321505 | TARGET TRACKING APPARATUS, IMAGE TRACKING APPARATUS, METHODS OF CONTROLLING OPERATION OF SAME, AND DIGITAL CAMERA - A detection area is decided in a case where a target has gone out-of-frame. If a target is being imaged by a camera continuously, it is determined whether the target has gone out-of-frame. If the target has gone out-of-frame, then the magnitude and direction of motion of the camera are detected. If camera motion is large, it can be concluded that the camera user is imaging the target while tracking it. Accordingly, it can be concluded that the target will again be imaged at the center of the imaging zone. An area defined as a region in which the target will be detected is set at the center of the imaging zone. If camera motion is small in a case where the target goes out-of-frame, it can be concluded that the user is waiting for the target to re-enter the imaging zone and therefore the edge of the imaging zone is set as the detection area. | 12-23-2010 |

| 20110188855 | COUPLED SYSTEM MULTI-CORE FIBER, COUPLING MODE MULTIPLEXER AND DEMULTIPLEXER, SYSTEM FOR TRANSMISSION USING MULTI-CORE FIBER AND METHOD FOR TRANSMISSION USING MULTI-CORE FIBER - The multi-core fiber of the present invention uses a multi-core fiber configuration, compatible with the “coupled” operation mode in which coupling between cores is positively utilized, to carry out mode division multiplexing transmission via a multi-core fiber that contains multiple single-mode cores in one optical fiber. The multi-core fiber of the present invention uses a configuration in which mode multiplexing transmission is carried out using a multi-core fiber that contains multiple single-mode cores in one optical fiber, wherein multiple cores are strongly coupled intentionally to form a coupled multi-core fiber that makes the coupled modes correspond, one to one, to the transmission channels. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20110243517 | UNCOUPLED MULTI-CORE FIBER - A multi-core fiber of the present invention employs the multi-core fiber mode, which corresponds to the “uncoupled” operation aspect in which individual cores are used independently for single-mode transmission, to perform space division multiplexing transmission using a multi-core fiber in which multiple single-mode cores are stored in one optical fiber. More specifically, the multi-core fiber of the present invention forms an uncoupled multi-core fiber that makes individual cores correspond to single-mode, independent transmission channels. | 10-06-2011 |
