Title: Yohei Sugimoto: Patents in Plant Recognition and Aerial Monitoring
Introduction
Yohei Sugimoto is an inventor based in Tokyo, Japan. His work includes inventions for recognizing plant equipment and detecting targets through radar-based aerial monitoring. He is associated with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and Hitachi-GE Nuclear Energy, Ltd. His listed portfolio includes 2 patents.
Latest Patents
Plant Facility Apparatus Recognition System and Plant Facility Apparatus Recognition Method. This invention is designed to help a mobile device recognize plant equipment, including when the equipment’s shape differs from or has changed since the design data was created. It uses a camera to capture the equipment and a nearby pipe, then obtains a characteristic length for the pipe from the image. The system compares that measurement with a corresponding length from the design data. This approach can support recognition in facilities where wireless equipment or markers cannot be installed.
Flying Body and Program. This invention describes a flying body with components for radar-based observation and target detection. An observation-data generation unit processes radio waves received by a radar, and an image-generation unit uses the resulting data to create an image of the monitored space. A detection unit then identifies a target based on that image.
Career Highlights
Sugimoto’s listed organizational affiliations connect his inventive work with aerospace and nuclear-energy fields. The two described patents address distinct technical challenges: identifying plant equipment using visual measurements and detecting targets using radar-derived imagery.
Collaborations
His listed coworkers include Hiroshi Seki and Yukihiro Murata. These associations provide context for the professional network connected with his work.
Conclusion
Yohei Sugimoto’s patents span plant-facility recognition and radar-based aerial monitoring, reflecting practical applications of imaging and measurement technologies.
