A total electric power limiting and controlling device has a total allocated electric power inputting portion receiving information for the total allocated electric power specifying the amount of electric power used by heaters in multiple controlled loops. An electric power value obtaining portion obtains an electric power consumption value for the individual loops. Electric power limiting portions calculate an electric power surplus of the individual loops, from the electric power consumption values, and calculates an operating quantity output upper limit value for each of the loops based on the ratios of the electric power surpluses of the individual loops relative to the total electric power surplus and on the total allocated electric power. A controlling portion, provided for each loop, calculates the operating quantity, performs an upper limit process on the operating quantity, and outputs the operating quantity, after the upper limit process, to the heater of the corresponding loop.

Принадлежит: 101070291 Saskatchewan Ltd

The invention seeks to provide a system of modular component clusters for use with vehicles such as electric utility vehicles, allowing for rapid and straightforward field repair. Vehicle components are arranged within cluster modules, the modules being releasably and operably connectable to the vehicle and adapted to provide for easy diagnosis of component failures. The cluster modules are designed to be independently exchanged in and out of the vehicle should any single component in a cluster fail, without the need for onsite service. Removal and replacement of a cluster module requires only minimal mechanical skill and the faulty module can then be out-shopped for repair. The system provides for more simplified maintenance of vehicles where moving the entire vehicle to a service location might be impractical.

Object Recognition Method and Recognition Apparatus

Номер: US20120274782A1

A target fish-eye image for object recognition is split into regions in accordance with the distortion direction. An object recognition portion performs object recognition by using databases prepared in accordance with the regions respectively. The same process is applied to a plurality of target fish-eye images created by rotation of the target fish-eye image. A detected coordinate transformation portion restores the obtained position of an object into the original position by inverse rotation, and outputs a thus obtained result as a detection result. Detection accuracy in object recognition is improved, and the quality of data in databases is reduced. Rotated object images required for database creation are used for creation of databases for object recognition for the fish-eye image. Thus, a distorted fish-eye image for object recognition is directly used without projective conversion or image conversion based on corrective operation to the fish-eye image.
