Title: Kohji Kawahara: Innovator in Motion Detection and Power Management
Introduction
Kohji Kawahara is a notable inventor based in Tokyo, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the fields of motion detection and power management. With a total of 2 patents, his work has had a considerable impact on technology.
Latest Patents
Kawahara's latest patents include a motion detection apparatus and a method for optimizing CPU throttling. The motion detection apparatus features an acceleration sensor that detects motion through acceleration. It includes a statistical processing section that calculates the average value of data from the sensor, determines the difference between this average and the last value, and computes a pseudo-variance value. A threshold comparing section then generates a signal when the pseudo-variance exceeds a predetermined motion threshold. This innovative design allows for effective motion detection in electronic devices.
The second patent focuses on a computer power management apparatus that optimizes CPU throttling. This method reduces power dissipation by eliminating unnecessary CPU throttling operations when the system is idle. The apparatus includes an event detecting section, an activity detecting section, and a clock control section. By only performing CPU throttling when the system is busy, this invention significantly reduces power consumption.
