Title: Innovations by Hiroshi Uchino in Three-Dimensional Measurement Technology

Introduction

Hiroshi Uchino is a prominent inventor based in Kyoto, Japan, known for his significant contributions to the field of three-dimensional measurement technology. With a total of 14 patents to his name, Uchino has developed innovative devices and methods that enhance the accuracy and efficiency of three-dimensional data collection.

Latest Patents

Among his latest patents are a three-dimensional measurement device and a three-dimensional measurement method. The purpose of the three-dimensional measurement device is to realize a compact design with high resolution. This invention involves projecting pulse light onto an object, with the reflected light being captured by a solid-state area sensor equipped with multiple photoelectric conversion elements. The area sensor operates in synchronization with the pulse light projection, allowing for precise distance measurements to each photoelectric conversion element. Additionally, Uchino's three-dimensional data input apparatus enables users to easily extract necessary data from stored past three-dimensional data, shooting position data, or shooting direction data. This apparatus facilitates the repetitive observation of an object, allowing for the comparison of past and present three-dimensional data to identify changes in the object's configuration.
