Title: A method for forming a perspective rendering from a voxel space
Inventor: AKERMAN SHMUEL
IPC: G06T15/06
Filed: 1999-11-26
Granted: 2003-07-24
Abstract: A method for forming a high spatial resolution perspective rendering from a low spatial resolution voxel space is disclosed. The method comprises steps of: a) initializing a virtual window of predetermined resolution pixels, and placing the virtual window in or near the voxel space; b) sparsely ray-casting a plurality of vectors from a predetermined vantage-point through the virtual window into the voxel space; and c) calculating a visualization-value at a series of positions along each vector. In a position ordering of steps from the vantage-point to the pixel, an accumulated transparency-value threshold is calculated. Values of proximate voxels are interpolated into an interpolated voxel value for each position. The interpolated voxel values are then transformed into a derived visualization-value and transparency value.

Granted: 1998-03-19
Abstract: An apparatus and a process for drying a suspension of a finely divided particulate solid material to produce the solid material in a substantially dry and unagglomerated form. The apparatus comprises a grinding chamber (1) containing a particulate grinding medium (12), means (21) for introducing a suspension of the particulate solid material into the grinding chamber (1) and an impeller (8, 9) rotating in the grinding chamber (1). The grinding chamber (1) has a perforated base (3) through which a heated gas is introduced to provide an upward flow of gas through the grinding chamber (1) and through the grinding medium (12). As the particulate solid material is dried, fine particles of the material are carried upwards in the upflow of gas through the grinding chamber (1) and may then be classified by classifying means (25) which separate the substantially dry product into a relatively fine fraction and a relatively coarse fraction. Downstream of the grinding chamber and of the classifying means (25), if provided, are filter means which separate the solid particles from the suspended gas. The filter means may comprise one or more cyclones (30) and/or a bag filter assembly <IMAGE>

Title: Method for the determination of a shared jackpot winning
Inventor: GAUSELMANN MICHAEL
IPC: G07F17/32
Filed: 1997-06-16
Granted: 2000-02-24
Abstract: A method of a shared jackpot system of a gambling apparatus unit is provided, where the gambling apparatus unit comprises a plurality of coin-operated gambling machines. The gambling machines are linked to each other and jointly fill a jackpot. A predetermined part of the gambling bet of each gambling machine is employed to fill the jackpot. The filling level of the jackpot is displayed on each gambling machine and with a large display. A communication board is coordinated to each gambling apparatus in addition to a control unit. Upon actuation of the gambling machines, it is automatically determined which one of the gambling machines assumes the control in the form of a master. The master gambling machine monitors whether a jackpot trigger value is present. In case a jackpot trigger value is present, a command sequence is sent to all linked gambling machines. At the same time there occurs a final game in the gambling machines based on the command sequence. A rank sequence and a winning quota, respectively, is determined based on the predicted game result and the actual game result, wherein the rank sequence and the winning quota, respectively, represents a distribution key for the jackpot.

Title: Measurement of strip flatness diring rolling
Inventor: HSU YU-WEN
IPC: B21B3/00
Filed: 1984-09-07
Granted: 1987-04-02
Abstract: A process and apparatus for on-line measurement of unflatness of hot or cold rolled strip products, wherein the longidudinal bending of a shape roll over which the strip passes provides a measure of the unflatness of the strip. Actual values of force, displacement or bending moment near the ends of the shape roll may be compared to theoretically predicted values for a flat product and for product having various out-of-flatness conditions. Preferably, the shape roll is supported at its ends by two pairs of supports, and the measurements at the supports are used in determining roll bending and thence strip unflatness. Other conditions such as off-center strip and asymmetric operation of the rolling mill may also be determined from the measurement.

Title: A method of packaging a beverage and a beverage package
IPC: B67C3/02
Filed: 1989-05-04
Granted: 1993-01-07
Abstract: A method of packaging a beverage containing gas in solution and a beverage package has a chamber 9 in a moulded open topped container 1 (of plastics or metal) in a bottom wall 8 of which is formed a restricted orifice 10. The bottom of the container 1 is received in a cup shaped closure 11 and sealed thereto at 16 to form a chamber 12 which communicates with the chamber 9 through the orifice 10. The chamber 9 is charged with beverage 17 and its headspace 21 is dosed with liquid nitrogen or carbon dioxide prior to sealing with a cap 18 so that the headspace 21 is at a pressure greater than atmospheric. With the sealed package in equilibrium the chamber 12 contains beverage derived from the chamber 9 through the orifice 10 and has a headspace 22. Upon opening of the package by removing the cap 18 and exposing the headspace 21 to atmosphere, the pressure differential between the headspaces 21 and 22 causes beverage and/or gas in the chamber 12 to be ejected through the orifice 10 into the beverage 17 and thereby gas in solution in the beverage to be liberated to form or assist in the formation of a head of froth onthebeverage.

Title: Multi-dimensional signal processing and display
Inventor: HUTSON WILLIAM H
IPC: G06T11/00
Filed: 1993-03-02
Granted: 1996-05-02
Abstract: A multi-dimensional acoustic, data processing and display system arranges acoustic data in a three-dimensional matrix. The three-dimensional matrix is compressed using singular value decomposition into singular vectors and singular values. A historical database is created and maintained and is also concatenated with the three-dimensional data. This database allows reverberation and noise to be diminished and other, weaker features in the data to be enhanced. Once the data is compressed, the data can be analyzed efficiently. The singular vectors are partitioned into one or more groups on the basis of their singular values or other criteria. Certain of the compressed data elements are enhanced or diminished by modifying the singular values within each of the groups of singular vectors. Selected singular vectors are processed further by other techniques for further enhancement, detection, isolation, feature extraction and classification. The compressed and enhanced data is then expanded back into three-dimensional form for display or for other processing.
