1. Development of technology for enhancing the clarity of moving objects in thermal imaging cameras
Masanobu Masuda, Susumu Nishisaka
We have developed the infrared thermography system model K2T, which suppresses image blur during the capture of moving objects, enabling the acquisition of clearer thermal images of such objects. The K2T system consists of an infrared camera (model K2TS) and an image processing controller (model K2TC). This system allows for effective inline inspections using thermal images on manufacturing lines where it was previously not feasible, thereby contributing to improved inspection quality and productivity.
2. Plant model automatic update technology using parameter probability distribution
Tetsuya Tabaru, Takahiro Kawagoe
Azbil is working to reduce CO2 emissions through control and optimization, and its SORTiATM advanced control solution plays a part in this effort. Advanced control uses models that represent plant characteristics; however, if these characteristics change significantly for some reason and the models remain unchanged, the performance of control and optimization may deteriorate due to the resulting differences. To solve this problem, we have developed a technology to automatically estimate and update the model of a plant in operation. The developed technology estimates the probability distribution of the model parameters from the data of the plant in operation and automatically determines whether or not the model needs to be updated based on that distribution. This technology does not require any special operations on the plant and is characterized by the ease of maintaining the model.
3. Development of an interleaved delta-sigma A/D converter optimized for multi-sensors
Hiroaki Teshima, Taichiro Kato, Tetsuya Kajita
In industrial measurement equipment, accuracy is often enhanced using multi-sensor systems. For instance, pressure and temperature sensors are installed to perform corrections on the primary sensor and adjust data for environmental changes. When performing correction calculations, it is essential to reduce latency between multiple sensors and ensure A/D conversion with high precision and low power consumption. To address this challenge, we proposed an interleaved delta-sigma A/D converter optimized for multiple sensors, and conducted functional verification through the prototyping and evaluation of the circuit.
