An autonomous cleaning robot canautomatically dock with an e vacuation station for the purpose of emptying its debris bin of vacuumeddebris. During an evacuation operation, the evacuation station can draw debris collecte d by the robotinto the evacuation station. The drawn debris can be stored in a receptacle within the evacuation station.When the debris collected in the recep tacle has reached a debris capacity of the receptacle, a user canmanually remov e the debris so that the evacuation station can perform additional evacuation op erations.”

The mold is shaken out after used in casting. To green sand obtained as a resul t of theshake-out, clay and an additive are added again. A resultant is reused as molding sand. In this process,an amount of clay required to be added varies depending on the active clay content in the green sand. Inorder to properly reu se the green sand, it is necessary to measure the active clay content in the gre ensand.

The surgical assistant paradigmis inherently imperfect, as the as sistant is being asked to anticipate and see with the surgeon’s eyes, withoutst anding where the surgeon stands, and similarly to anticipate and adjust how the surgeon wants the tissueof interest exposed, throughout the procedure. For exam ple, during a laparoscopic procedure, one assistantmay be required to hold a re tractor device to expose tissue for the surgeon, while another assistant may be required to hold a laparoscope device to provide a field of view of the surgical space within the patient tothe surgeon during the procedure, either one of whi ch may be required to hold the respective tools in animpractical position, e.g. , from between the arms of the surgeon while the surgeon is actively operatinga dditional surgical instruments.

Technical Field“The present invention relates to a monitoring camera and a camera parameter det ermining method,and a storage medium, for determining a camera parameter of the monitoring camera.“2. Background Art”In addition to obtaining background information on this patent, NewsRx editors a lso obtained theinventors’ summary information for this patent: “An area imaged by the monitoring camera (hereinafter,referred to as an “imaging area”) is oft en a place where an operator (for example, an owner of a store) ofthe monitorin g camera pays attention in order to monitor the place, such as a place near an a utomaticdoor where many persons enter and exit. However, for example, even when an entire image obtained bycapturing an image of the imaging area is bright du ring daytime, a face of a person appearing in the imagemay be dark due to back light of sunlight, which may deteriorate monitoring accuracy.

Therefore, unless otherwise indicated, it shouldnot be assumed that any of the approaches described in this section qualify as prio r art merely by virtueof their inclusion in this section:“Manufacturing and process engineers are increasingly managing and reviewing unp recedented amountsof operational data. For example, machines and sensors in ind ustries, such as oil and gas industry, metalsand mining industry, and semicondu ctor industry, produce terabytes of operational data over time fromacross the e nterprise. There are numerous challenges that arise in managing and reviewing la rge volumesof data. These challenges range from delivering and presenting data at the frontend to processing andstorage limitations at the backend. One approa ch to processing operational data is to create a snapshot ofthe performance of a machine or industrial process at different points in time, each snapshot repre sentinga different portion of the operation data. Then the snapshots can be com pared directly with each other.However, such an approach requires a significant amount of storage and, more importantly, is unable toaccurately capture featur es (such as slope, highs, and lows) of different snapshots, particularly if twosnapshots are not perfectly aligned.
