Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for inputting keys using biological signals in an HMD (Head Mounted Display) mobile information terminal. The apparatus provides a virtual screen that includes a key map and a preview window to a user through a display unit having a micro-display, recognizes and inputs a key selected according to the user's biological signals sensed through a biological signal sensing unit having an EOG (Electrooculogram) input unit and an EMG (Electromyogram) input unit for sensing and receiving the biological signals as key inputs. The apparatus recognizes through a recognition unit the key selected according to the user's biological signals sensed through a biological signal sensing unit. The user can freely use the HMD mobile communication terminal without using his/her hands because the user can input his/her desired key to the HMD information terminal only by the movement of the user's eyes and the biting of his/her right and left back teeth.

Abstract: A valve control system for an engine having a pair of poppet valves (11,13), the system including a rocker arm (25) having a first end (25a), and a bridge member (43;143) in engagement therewith. A shaft member (39) fixes the lateral position of the bridge member relative to the rocker arm to define an axis (A). The bridge member cooperates with the poppet valves to define first and second contact points (CP5, CP6). As the rocker arm engages in pivotal movement, the lateral distances from the axis (A) to the contact points (CP5,CP6) remain substantially constant and equal, thus insuring that the forces transmitted to the poppet valves by the bridge member remain substantially constant and equal, and further insuring that the valve velocity curves of the two valves will conform to the "desired" valve velocity (Vo).
