Abstract: Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) or other network information identifiers are
transmitted with television signals in order to permit web content to be displayed in
synchronization with television programming. In an illustrative embodiment, URLs are
embedded in a closed caption portion of a transmitted television signal, and delimited from
the closed caption text using predetermined delimiting characters. A decoder extracts the
URLs from the television signal, and supplies the URLs to a retrieval device which
automatically retrieves corresponding web pages or other similar information over a
network. The retrieved web pages are then displayed to a viewer in synchronization with
related programming in the television signal. The retrieval device may be a set-top box
associated with a television set that displays both a retrieved web page and the
corresponding television picture portion of the television signal. Alternatively, the retrieval
device may be a computer which retrieves and displays a web page, while the
corresponding television picture is displayed on a television set.

Abstract: When issuance of a passport is examined within each of
the passport transaction apparatuses (1A-1 to 1A-N) and the passport center (6),
each of the passport transaction apparatuses orchestrates the
passport center so as to determine whether the passport is to
be issued or not using data for passport transaction inputted
by the applicant. When issuance of the passport is permitted,
an image of the applicant is acquired at each of the passport
transaction apparatuses, and a passport with the image and
contents of description for a passport is issued on the spot.
Thus the process for passport transaction can be made faster
and also a workload to an applicant can be reduced.

Abstract: A combustor enabled to prevent a hot premixed flame from
flowing back into a main swirler zone. 
     The combustor comprises a pilot nozzle 02 arranged at the
central portion of an inner cylinder 01 opened at its end into a
combustion chamber 018 and including a plurality of main
nozzles 03 arranged around its outer circumference. Along the
outer circumference of a flame holding cone 014 for igniting a

elliptical extension pipes 016 of an elliptical section shape
which are extended from the fronts of the main nozzles 03 to
have openings at the axial position of the opening of the flame
holding cone 014. 
     As a result, the hot premixed flame 013 does not flow back
to the main swirler zone 015 of the circumferential edges of
the openings of the main nozzles 03, so that the mixing between
the fuel F and an air flow A can be improved to reduce the NOx
emission while eliminating the burning of a base plate 04 and

Abstract: In an eyeglass lens grinding apparatus for grinding a
periphery of a lens, a lens holding system holds a lens while
clamping the lens. A data input system inputs shape data of an
eyeglass frame to which the lens is fitted, and layout data of
the lens with respect to the eyeglass frame. An edge-position-data
calculating system obtains edge position data of
the lens after layout, on the basis of the data inputted by the
data input system. A first measuring system measures an edge
position of the lens before processing that is held by the lens
holding system, on the basis of the edge position data obtained
by the edge-position-data calculating system. A second
measuring system measures an edge position of the lens after rough
grinding, on the basis of the edge position data. A
chamfering-process-data calculating system obtains chamfering
process data for processing a corner portion of an edge of the
lens after finish processing, on the basis of a result of
measurement by the second measuring system. A chamfering process
system having a chamfering grinding wheel processes the corner
portion of the edge of the lens after the finish processing. A
chamfering-process controlling system controls the chamfering
process system on the basis of the chamfering process data obtained
by the chamfering-process-data calculating system.

Abstract: A power conversion system always keeps a constant
voltage level relative to the ground potential and
shows an improved controllability for the noise
compensation current. In the noise reduction circuit
(8) of the system, a rectified DC voltage is applied to
the positive side output line (P1) and the negative
side output line (N1). The DC voltage is divided by a
pair of capacitors (Cp, Cn) connected in series with
the intermediary point (11) held to the ground
potential. Thus, the positive side output line (P1)
can always supply a positive voltage that is held to a
constant level relative to the ground potential.
Similarly, the negative side output line (N1) can
always supply a negative voltage that is held to a
constant level relative to the ground potential.
Additionally, as the transistors (Tr1, Tr2) are
controlled for on/off operations by the amplifier (7),
the noise compensation current (i) flows through the
noise reduction circuit (8) between the input grounding
terminal of the full-wave rectifier (2) and the ground.

comprise a plurality of pins that are actively positioned
to present information to a user via tactile feel. The
Braille device also allows the user to depress at one or
more of the pins in order to make a selection analogous to

Braille pins are used as an output device that allows a
user to read information, and also as an input device by
allowing the user to depress the Braille pins in order to

Abstract: A limitation of using two-dimensional images, such as videos or photographs, to
represent portions of a three-dimensional world occurs when the user moves within the
world and views the world from a location different than from the original context of the
two-dimensional image, i.e., from a location different than the image's ideal viewing point
(IVP). View changes result in the image not aligning well with the surrounding objects of
the three-dimensional world. This limitation is overcome by distorting the two-dimensional
image so as to adjust the image's vanishing point(s) in accordance with the movement of the
user using a pyramidic panel structure. In this manner, as the user moves away from the
ideal viewing point, the distortions act to limit the discontinuities between the two-dimensional
image and its surroundings. To minimize the depth profile of the pyramidic
panel structure, the structure may be segmented into sections and each section translated
towards, or away from, the user's viewpoint.
