JVCKENWOOD had 28 patents in future of work during Q4 2023. JVCKENWOOD Corp filed patents for automatic focus-adjusting glasses, a warning apparatus for vehicles, and a detection function control device. The glasses adjust focus based on depth information and attention position in the image. The warning apparatus uses far-infrared and visible light cameras to detect objects and display warnings to the driver. The detection function control device determines the vehicle situation and activates detection functions for detecting dangerous driving accordingly.

Application: Automatic focus-adjusting glasses, control method of automatic focus-adjusting glasses, and non-transitory storage medium (Patent ID: US20230418131A1)
The patent filed by JVCKENWOOD Corp. describes automatic focus-adjusting glasses that utilize an imager, variable focus lens, depth-information acquiring unit, attention-position determining unit, depth-information identifying unit, and focal-length controller to adjust the focal length of the glasses based on the depth of the attention position in the image. The attention-position determining unit calculates brightness variation in the image to identify the attention position, detect objects, determine their depth, and set the object's position as the attention position if the depth change rate meets a threshold.
The patent also includes claims for the automatic focus-adjusting glasses, a control method for these glasses, and a non-transitory storage medium storing a computer program for executing the control method. The control method involves acquiring depth information, determining the attention position, identifying the depth of the attention position, and setting the focal length of the glasses based on this depth. The method further includes calculating brightness variation, detecting objects, determining their depth, calculating depth change rate, and setting the object's position as the attention position if the depth change rate towards the object meets a threshold. These innovations aim to enhance the functionality of glasses by automatically adjusting the focus based on the user's attention position and surrounding objects.
