US Patent:
8196823, Jun 12, 2012
Filed:
Aug 10, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/853718
Inventors:
Benjamin Alan Grayson - Ann Arbor MI, US
Debasish Benerjee - Ann Arbor MI, US
Minjuan Zhang - Ann Arbor MI, US
Yasuo Uehara - Ann Arbor MI, US
Masahiko Ishii - Okazaki, JP
Assignee:
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America, Inc. - Erlanger KY
International Classification:
G07B 15/02
US Classification:
235384, 235375, 235385
Abstract:
In one embodiment, the optical lock system may include an electronic control unit, a lock housing including a lock chamber, and an optical key including a multilayer photonic structure. The multilayer photonic structure may produce a unique intensity profile and includes a plurality of coating layers of high index dielectric material and a plurality of coating layers of low index dielectric. A light source may transmit a reference light to the multilayer photonic structure when the optical key is disposed within the lock chamber. A photo detector may receive an interaction light from the multilayer photonic structure and may transmit the unique intensity profile to the electronic control unit which may execute machine readable instructions to: compare the unique intensity profile to an electronic master; and cause the lock actuator to transition from a first state to a second state when the unique intensity profile corresponds to the electronic master.

US Patent:
8237792, Aug 7, 2012
Filed:
Dec 18, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/642685
Inventors:
Yasuo Uehara - Ann Arbor MI, US
Assignee:
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America, Inc. - Erlanger KY
International Classification:
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
348143, 707741
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to methods and systems for describing and organizing image data. An analysis system includes a sensor, a processing unit, a machine, a database, and/or a display. The analysis system is connected to an electronic device. The sensor generates sensor data which is imported by the processing unit. The processing unit analyzes the sensor data to determine features of the sensor data such as the subject, the time, the location, the object, the event, and/or the action in the sensor data. The processing unit creates entries for the sensor data in a features index. The processing unit receives a query for an item and uses the features index to determine search results including the item, such as a location and a time of the item. The processing unit can also determine whether a machine has completed its mission using the features in the sensor data.

US Patent:
8269616, Sep 18, 2012
Filed:
Jul 16, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/504635
Inventors:
Yasuo Uehara - Ann Arbor MI, US
Assignee:
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America, Inc. - Erlanger KY
International Classification:
B60Q 1/00
US Classification:
340435, 3409322
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method and system to determine gaps, such as parking spaces, between objects. A sensor acquires a set of scanning data. A noise filter unit filters the set of scanning data and a data derivative unit generates a set of derivative data from the set of scanning data. A data analysis unit determines locations of gaps by selectively analyzing the set of derivative data which exceed a first predetermined distance and/or a second predetermined distance. The gap definition unit determines the substantial locations, shapes, and sizes of the gaps based on the previously defined location from the data analysis unit. A report generation unit generates a report including the set of gaps defined by the gap definition unit. The report is displayed on a display in a color coded format easily visible and discernable to a driver of the automobile.

High Efficiency Turbine System

View page
US Patent:
8337160, Dec 25, 2012
Filed:
Oct 19, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/581763
Inventors:
Yasuo Uehara - Ann Arbor MI, US
Assignee:
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America, Inc. - Erlanger KY
International Classification:
F03D 1/04
US Classification:
416189, 415220
Abstract:
A high efficiency turbine system which can increase a pressure differential between an upstream location and a downstream location. The turbine system includes a propeller attached to a shaft, which can both be located in a shroud. The shroud includes a projection, such as a brim, which protrudes inward and/or outward from the shroud. The projection includes brim units arranged asymmetrically and/or in repeating patterns to generate various vortex and swirl patterns. The brim units can have a different size, shape, width, and/or height than an adjacent brim unit. The brim units can be arranged in a non-parallel manner and can be rotatable. Furthermore, the brim units can form brim groups which can be arranged asymmetrically and/or in repeating patterns to generate various swirl patterns. The turbine system can also be used in a renewable energy system, which can be used to power electronic devices.
