Soya

Akihiko Soya, Ina JP

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110298911IMAGING MODULE FOR BIOMETRICS AUTHENTICATION, BIOMETRICS AUTHENTICATION APPARATUS AND PRISM - An imaging module for biometrics authentication comprises: a light source irradiating a living body with light capable of passing through the living body; a prism having an incidence surface including an incidence area for taking in light emerging from the living body, two or more reflecting surfaces for reflecting the light taken in through the incidence area, and an outlet surface for outputting the light reflected by the reflecting surfaces; and a camera module including a lens for focusing the light emerging from the outlet surface of the prism and an image pickup device for converting the light focused thereon by the lens into an electric signal and outputting the electric signal.12-08-2011

20100265377METHOD OF DRIVING AN IMAGE SENSOR, AND AN IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS - When an external trigger is received as a predetermined signal after receiving a signal concerning a start of imaging, controls are carried out to stop driving of a CCD type solid-state image sensor (CCD) from receipt of the signal concerning a start of imaging until receipt of the external trigger, and to start the driving of the CCD synchronously with the receipt of the external trigger. Thus, the driving of the CCD is not started immediately upon receipt of the signal concerning a start of imaging, and the driving time of the CCD can be shortened by the time from receipt of the signal concerning a start of imaging until receipt of the external trigger, thereby suppressing heat generation of the CCD.10-21-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100064814FAILURE DETECT DEVICE AND FAILURE DETECT METHOD - A failure detect device detects the presence of a failure in a peripheral member of a rotary shaft by analyzing a vibration generated in a device provided with the rotary shaft when the rotary shaft is rotated. A vibration detection unit detects the vibration of the device, and a rotation speed detection unit detects a rotation speed of the rotary shaft. An analysis unit calculates a frequency spectrum of the vibration of the device and determines an actually measured vibration level at each vibration order by dividing a frequency component of the calculated frequency spectrum by the rotation speed of the rotary shaft. A detection unit detects the presence of a failure in the peripheral member on the basis of the actually measured vibration level at each vibration order.03-18-2010

20090080031ORIGINAL SIZE DETECTING APPARATUS, ORIGINAL SIZE DETECTING METHOD, AND PROGRAM FOR ORIGINAL SIZE DETECTION - An original size detecting apparatus is capable of carrying out accurate original size detection without erroneous detection of the size of an original due to the influence of external scattered light. A CCD reads reflected light of light irradiated from a light source onto an original placed on an original platen glass. Optical sensors detect two open states of the original presser plate, and a scanner controller performs predetermined control corresponding to each of the open states of the original presser plate detected by the optical sensors, to determine the size of the original based on the result of the reading by the CCD.03-26-2009

20080211884Liquid Feed Tube for Liquid Jetting Device and Liquid Jetting Device - A liquid feed tube for feeding a liquid from a liquid tank disposed on a liquid jetting device body side to a jetting head mounted on a reciprocating carriage, including: a long elastic member and a film member connected in an airtight state to the elastic member along a longitudinal direction of the elastic member; and a space part formed by the elastic member and the film member and used as a liquid feed passage, wherein the elastic member is made of a specific resin composition. Thus, the bending rigidity of the liquid feed tube can be lowered, and the resistance to moisture permeability and the gas barrier property thereof can be realized at low cost.09-04-2008
