Patent EP-2144143-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TSUZAKI RYOICHI
IPC: G06F3/041
Filed: 2009-07-07
Abstract: The present invention provides an image input/output device including an input/output panel, a correction section and an image processing section. The input/output panel includes display elements and photo-reception elements to receive lights emitted from the display plane and then reflected from an external adjacent object. The correction section corrects photo-reception signals from the photo-reception elements based on an in-plane correction table where correction coefficients are associated with positions on the display plane, respectively. A value distribution profile in the display plane of the correction coefficients is defined based on both of a light intensity distribution profile of the light emitted from the display plane and a photo-reception sensitivity distribution profile of the photo-reception elements. The image processing section obtains information concerning one or more of position, shape and size of the external adjacent object based on the photo-reception signals corrected by the correction section.

Abstract: Methods for handoff of a multimode mobile station (MS). The MS, in connected mode, moves from a cell of a legacy base station to a cell of an ABS and scans base stations from a list of neighbouring base stations, wherein at least the ABS is listed as another legacy base station in the list of neighbouring base stations. The MS performs the handoff to connect to a legacy zone of the ABS. Further, the multimode MS switching from the legacy zone of the ABS to a advanced zone of the ABS based on a Zone Switch request or command is triggered by either the multimode MS or the ABS. The Zone Switch request is triggered after detecting capabilities of either the multimode MS or the ABS that they support advanced zone. The capabilities are detected by using MAC versions of the multimode MS and the ABS or an indicator for the advanced zone. The multimode MS can also performs handoff to the advanced zone from the cell of the legacy base station by receiving one or more information items for ranging in the advanced zone from the ABS during the handoff.

Patent EP-2233494-A3 (EP)
Inventor: BREAKER RONALD
IPC: C12N15/63
Filed: 2003-09-22
Abstract: It has been discovered that certain natural mRNAs serve as metabolite-sensitive genetic switches wherein the RNA directly binds a small organic molecule. This binding process changes the conformation of the mRNA, which causes a change in gene expression by a variety of different mechanisms. Modified versions of these natural "riboswitches" (created by using various nucleic acid engineering strategies) can be employed as designer genetic switches that are controlled by specific effector compounds. Such effector compounds that activate a riboswitch are referred to herein as trigger molecules. The natural switches are targets for antibiotics and other small molecule therapies. In addition, the architecture of riboswitches allows actual pieces of the natural switches to be used to construct new nonimmunogenic genetic control elements, for example the aptamer (molecular recognition) domain can be swapped with other non-natural aptamers (or otherwise modified) such that the new recognition domain causes genetic modulation with user-defined effector compounds. The changed switches become part of a therapy regimen-turning on, or off, or regulating protein synthesis. Newly constructed genetic regulation networks can be applied in such areas as living biosensors, metabolic engineering of organisms, and in advanced forms of gene therapy treatments.

Abstract: A substance including the chemical structures of bicyclo[3.2.1]octan or the chemical structures of kaurene for the use in a dietary supplementation or as a constituent in a medicament for the treatment of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension and/or the metabolic syndrome. The unique chemical structures of bicyclo[3.2.1]octan alone or in a kaurene structure provides the substances, such as e.g. steviol, isosteviol and stevioside with the capability of enhancing or potentiating the secretion of insulin in a plasma glucose dependent manner. The substances including these unique chemical structures also have the capability of reducing the glucagon concentration in the blood and/or lowering the blood pressure thereby providing a self-regulatory treatment system for non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and/or hypertension. In a combination drug which also comprise a soy protein, and/or soy fiber and/or at least one isoflavone these substances act synergistically and such combination drugs are highly useful both prophylacticly or directly in the treatment of e.g. the metabolic syndrome and obesity and has due to the self-regulatory effect a widespread applicability as a dietary supplementation.
