Makoto Yamanaka, Kobe City JP

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090066798Sound Corrector, Sound Recording Device, Sound Reproducing Device, and Sound Correcting Method - Sound correction processing is performed for a sound signal obtained from a sound collecting portion. In particular, sound correction processing is performed after determining what is performed as the sound correction processing based on an image signal paired with a sound signal, the image signal obtained from an imaging portion, the sound signal, control data of the imaging portion, and the like.03-12-2009
20090147624Sound Collection Environment Deciding Device, Sound Processing Device, Electronic Appliance, Sound Collection Environment Deciding Method and Sound Processing Method - A sound collection environment deciding device for deciding whether the sound was collected in air or in water by utilizing an audio signal of collected sound is provided. Methods of Utilizing the audio signal of collected sound include, for instance, utilizing a difference of frequency characteristics between in-air and in-water of the audio signal of collected sound, utilizing a difference of propagation characteristics between in-air and in-water of the audio signal of collected sound, or the like.06-11-2009
20100302401Image Audio Processing Apparatus And Image Sensing Apparatus - An image audio processing portion includes an image analysis portion for analyzing an input image, a directivity control portion for controlling a directivity of an input audio signal based on a result of analysis by the image analysis portion so as to generate an output audio signal, and a display image generating portion for generating a display image by superimposing an image indicating a state of the output audio signal on the input image. A user can recognize a state of the output audio signal by checking the display image.12-02-2010

20080238052Airbag apparatus - An airbag apparatus has an airbag body, which is arranged between a roof panel and a roof head lining of a vehicle and held in a folded state. The airbag body also has a second bolt, a fixed piece, and a folded portion. The airbag body is fixed to a guide portion of an inner panel by the second bolt. The fixed piece is fixed by the second bolt. The folded portion extends from the fixed piece and is maintained in a folded state. The airbag body also includes a binding tape and a restricting plate. The binding tape binds the folded portion together and releases the folded portion when the airbag body is deployed and inflated. The restricting plate ensures an open space below the folded portion and restricts downward displacement of the folded portion when the airbag body 10-02-2008
20090085330Airbag apparatus - An airbag apparatus includes an airbag that has a first portion and a second portion. The airbag is folded such that the first portion approaches the second portion. The folded airbag has an elongated shape extending along a first direction. An inlet 04-02-2009
