摘要： A dust detection system, comprising a receiver, a dust extraction block, a memory and an image correction block, is provided. The receiver receives an image signal. The dust extraction block generates a dust image signal on the basis of the image signal. The memory stores an intrinsic-flaw image signal corresponding to an intrinsic-flaw image including sub-images of dust that the dust extraction block extracts in initializing. The image correction block generates a corrected dust-image signal on the basis of the intrinsic-flaw image signal and a normal dust-image signal. The normal dust-image signal corresponds to a normal dust image including sub-image of dust that the dust extraction block extracts after initializing. The corrected dust image is the normal dust image that sub-images of dust in the intrinsic-flaw image are deleted from.

摘要： A noise reduction apparatus of a digital camera which uses an imaging device for imaging a photographic subject, carries out a specified number of dark exposure operations, to obtain the same specified number of dark output values for each picture element of the imaging device, in which the photographic subject is imaged, under the condition where the imaging device is shaded, after a normal exposure operation in which the photographic subject is imaged. The apparatus calculates a representative value for each dark exposure operation, based on the dark output values. The apparatus calculates a ratio based on the representative values. The apparatus calculates noise components caused by the dark current in each picture element of the imaging device in the normal exposure operation on the basis of the ratio. The apparatus reduces the noise components from respective output values of each picture element, produced in the normal exposure operation.

摘要： A spot welding system using a spot welding gun having a servomotor for driving welding tips capable of suppressing variation of pressing force due to influence of heat generated by welding current to obtain an uniform pressing force. A difference between the temperature T detected by a temperature sensor and an initial temperature T0 is multiplied by a coefficient A to obtain a pressing force compensation amount α. A pressing force d estimated by an observer is subtracted from the compensated command pressing force p′ and an obtained difference is multiplied by a constant K2 to obtain a torque command (current command) τ for driving the servomotor to press the objects by the welding tips. Since the commanded pressing force is compensated in accordance with the temperature, a constant and stable pressing force is produced without influence of the temperature variation.
