A wireless charging device and an operation method thereof are provided. The wireless charging device includes a charging module, at least one proximity sensor and a central controller. The wireless charging device senses a distance variation between the wireless charging device and an object using the proximity sensor and accordingly determines whether to turn on or turn off the charging module to achieve energy saving.

Wireless charging device and operation method thereof

A robot cleaner comprises a first light source, an optical sensor, a processing circuit and a second light source. The first light source emits first light. The optical sensor senses first optical data generated according to the first light. The processing circuit computes a height or an overhang height of an obstacle based on the first optical data. The second light source emits second light. The optical sensor senses second optical data generated according to the second light. The processing circuit determines whether the obstacle exists in the predetermined region or not based on the second optical data.

Robot cleaner and robot cleaner control method

The present invention provides a motion detecting system, which includes a light source module, a plurality of image sensors and a control unit. The light source module illuminates at least one object. The image sensors respectively detect the object under the light emitted by the light source module to generate a plurality of detection results. The control unit is coupled to the image sensors, and generates a control command according to the detection results.

Motion detecting system having multiple sensors

An auto clean machine comprising: a height computing device; and an obstacle determining device. The height computing device is turned on to compute a height or an overhang height of an obstacle when the obstacle determining device determines the obstacle exists in a predetermined region of the auto clean machine. The height computing device does not compute the height and the overhang height when the obstacle determining device does not determine the obstacle exists in the predetermined region.

Auto clean machine and auto clean machine control method

A light-guide assembly and an access control system are provided. The light-guide assembly is used as an interface for touch input. The light-guide assembly includes a light-guide element and a light source disposed on a lateral surface of the light-guide element. The light source emits a first light with a first wavelength. The light-guide element has an upper surface, a lower surface, and an inner layer that is made of a light-transmissive material. The first light enters the light-guide element through the lateral surface and propagates inside the light-guide element for reacting to the touch event occurring on the upper surface. A verification data used in an access control system is formed when the touch event is sensed and identified. A light-activation element of the assembly activates the first light propagating inside the light-guide element and produces a second light that is used to provide a visual effect.

Access control system and light guide assembly thereof

An optical flow sensing method includes: using an image sensor to capture images; using a directional-invariant filter device upon at least one first block of the first image to process values of pixels of the at least one first block of the first image, to generate a first filtered block image; using the first directional-invariant filter device upon at least one first block of the second image to process values of pixels of the at least one first block of the second image, to generate a second filtered block image; comparing the filtered block images to calculate a correlation result; and estimating a motion vector according to a plurality of correlation results.
