ALEXANDRIA, Va., Nov. 3 -- United States Patent no. 12,780,167, issued on Nov. 3, was assigned to ADVICS Co. LTD. (Kariya, Japan).

"Electric braking device" was invented by Shinichiro Kojima (Kariya, Japan).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A processing circuit of an electric braking device includes a base-value derivation unit configured to derive a value corresponding to a target braking force as a piston-thrust base value, a first adder configured to calibrate the piston-thrust base value so that a computational result between the calibration value and the piston-thrust base value in a case where the target braking force decreases and the target braking force becomes a prescribed braking force...
