20080289608	FUEL INJECTOR CONTROL APPARATUS - A microcomputer calculates a fuel injection time. When the fuel injection time is longer than a predetermined specified time, the microcomputer sets a voltage level of a short-term injection signal to high and sets a peak current for coils in fuel injectors to a first peak current. When the fuel injection time is shorter than or equal to the predetermined specified time, the microcomputer sets a voltage level of the short-term injection signal to low and sets a peak current for the coils to a second peak current smaller than the first peak current.	11-27-2008
20080316670	Voltage generator - A voltage generator used to generate a voltage for driving a vehicle fuel injector includes a microcomputer, a coil, and a capacitor. The microcomputer calculates an interval at which the fuel injector is driven. When the interval is less than or equal to a predetermined time period, the microcomputer causes a first current to flow through the coil so that the capacitor is charged to a first level by counterelectromotive force produced in the coil. When the interval is greater than the time period, the microcomputer causes a second current less than the first current to flow through the coil so that the capacitor is charged to a second level less than the first level. The fuel injector is driven by the capacitor voltage.	12-25-2008

20090244288	IMAGING APPARATUS AND LIGHTING APPARATUS FOR IMAGING - An imaging apparatus for taking an image of a face includes an imaging element having sensitivity for a near-infrared range and a visible range, a first optical filter provided between the face and the imaging element to reduce an intensity of a visible light entering the imaging element and a near-infrared light irradiating portion for irradiating the face with a near-infrared light.	10-01-2009
20100253495	IN-VEHICLE IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND MEMORY MEDIUM - Every time a camera transmits a picked-up face image to an ECU, the ECU detects a face area from the transmitted face image, and corrects an exposure time so as to have brightness most appropriate to determine a facial direction and the condition of eyes at the detected face area. The corrected exposure time is notified to the camera, and the camera picks up an image of the face of a driver at the notified exposure time. Accordingly, the ECU analyzes a face image which is periodically picked up with the most appropriate brightness regardless of a change in an environment, and determines whether or not a driver is doing a hazardous driving.	10-07-2010
20100254571	FACE IMAGE PICKUP DEVICE AND METHOD - There are provided a face image pickup device and a face image pickup method which can stably acquire a face image by appropriate illumination, and a program thereof. The face image pickup device comprises a camera which picks up an image of a face of a target person, an illumination light source which illuminates the face of the target person with near-infrared light having an arbitrary light amount, and a computer. The computer detects an area including an eye from the face image of the target person picked up by the camera. The computer measures a brightness distribution in the detected area. Thereafter, the computer controls the illumination light source so as to change the amount of near-infrared light based on the measured brightness distribution.	10-07-2010
