Abstract: A method for halftoning a multi-channel digital color image having an x,y array of color pixel values, includes the steps of: providing a matrix of dither values for each color channel of the digital color image wherein two or more of the matrices of dither values are designed jointly to minimize a visual cost function; for each color channel modularly addressing the matrix of dither values with the location of a pixel in the digital color image to obtain an addressed dither value; comparing the addressed dither value for each color channel with the pixel value for the corresponding color channel to determine an output halftone image value for each color channel; and repeating steps b and c for each pixel in the digital image.

Abstract: Der Anmeldungsgegenstand betrifft Vorrichtungen, mit Hilfe derer in Verstärkerstufen (1...k) mit Neuron-MOS-Transistoren (T10,1 ...T10,k) eine definierte Nullpunktspannung ( V0) abhängig von einem einstellbaren Nullpunktspannungs-Sollwert (V0,soll) ermöglicht wird. Dies ist meist erforderlich, da beispielsweise durch eine prozeßbedingte Aufladung der Floating-Gates der Neuron-MOS-Transistoren und durch eine kapazitiv eingekoppelte Spannung aus dem Kanalbereich eine undefinierte Nullpunktsverschiebung der Übertragungskennlinie auftritt. Die Vorrichtungen können zusammen mit den Verstärkerstufen beispielsweise in Video- und Audiotechnik, in der Sensorik, in Analogrechnern, in Fuzzy-Schaltungen und Neuronalen Netzen Anwendung finden. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Drilling long horizontal boreholes below ground produces long horizontal bores (1) in the ground, from an initial subsurface point of desired depth. Here the drive (9) turns a string of drilling rods, making axial (3), horizontal progress in a given direction. The vertical shaft is of constant cross section. Rods (6) to be joined to, or removed from the drill string (7) are lowered to a horizontal position corresponding with the drilling axis, connection or detachment taking place in the shaft, on this axis. Also claimed is the corresponding equipment to drive the horizontal bore. This includes a derrick and rods shorter than its open internal cross section.

Abstract: An exterior rearview mirror for a vehicle has a base (14, 32) adapted to be secured to a vehicle body. A mirror housing is secured to a drive unit (18) which is mounted on the base (14, 32) for relative angular movement about a substantially vertical axis (52). The drive unit (18) has hollow cylindrical projection (36) carrying an annular clutch face (35) abutting a clutch plate (34) on the base (14, 32). An annular gear wheel (64) is located coaxially within the hollow cylindrical projection (36) and has a circular clutch face (68) in abutment with the clutch disc (34). A pinion (70) is journalled in bearings (80, 86) on the drive unit (18) and engages with internal gear teeth (66) on an inner annular surface of the annular gear wheel (64). A cam (104) is journalled coaxially with the hollow cylindrical projection (36) for limited angular movement relative to the base (14, 32) and a cam follower (114) is biased by a spring (120) into abutment with the cam (104) so as to abut against a ramp (108) thereon when the mirror housing is in its normal orientation. The force necessary to cause slippage at the circular clutch face (68) is greater than the force necessary to cause slippage at the annular clutch face (35) and less than the force necessary to move the cam (104) up the ramp (108).

Abstract: A facsimile machine (10) is provided with only two receive modes: "Auto
Answer" and "Manual". In the Auto Answer mode, the device will
automatically receive incoming facsimiles and in the Manual mode it will not.
The Auto Answer mode allows the user to automatically receive facsimile
calls on either a dedicated facsimile line or a line (16) shared with any other
receiving device such as a telephone (12) or answering machine (14). Since
several receive modes have been collapsed into a single mode that may be
used for all configurations, the user simply controls the behavior he desires
by turning (38) Auto Answer mode ON or OFF (i.e., Auto Answer mode must
be ON for the facsimile to eavesdrop, or to answer the call when nothing else
answers), with Auto Answer OFF being equivalent to Manual mode ON, and
vice versa. In Auto Answer mode, "eavesdropping" for a CNG sequence is
enabled (FIG 4) for all incoming calls answered by another device (12, 14),
and "silent detection" is enabled for at least those devices (14) which are
connected in series with ("downstream" from) the facsimile. In order to
support users who are accustomed to change the receive mode setting each
time they receive a facsimile, the facsimile device (10) is preferably provided
with a dedicated button (38) on the front panel (18) that requires only a single
press to switch the device between Auto Answer mode and to Manual mode
and an LED (40) or other indicator device to alert the user when the unit is
set to Auto Answer mode.

Abstract: A device and method for connecting an optical switch
to the optical fibers that terminate on a fiber
distribution shelf within a fiber administration system.
The optical switch device contains a support plate that is
shaped essentially the same as the protective cover of
fiber distribution shelf. As such, the support plate of the
optical switch device can be joined to a specific fiber
distribution shelf by substituting the support plate for
the protective cover. An optical switch is affixed to the
support plate, wherein the optical switch is sized not to
extend beyond the peripheral boundaries of the support
plate. As a result, when the support plate is placed over a
fiber distribution shelf, the optical switch joined to the
support plate does not obscure any other fiber distribution
shelf in the fiber administration system.

Abstract: A waveform equalizer prevents the delay of coefficient
convergence due to the characteristics of a reproduced signal
or the coefficient divergence due to an increase in determined
errors. The waveform equalizer constituted by a transversal
filter suppresses inter-symbol interferences of a transmitted
digital information signal by multiplying the digital
information signal and delayed signals thereof by tab
coefficients and adding the multiplication results. The
waveform equalizer comprises a virtual determination circuit
for virtually determining the most plausible digital
information from the output of the transversal filter, an
error calculation circuit for providing an amplitude error
based on the virtual determination result, a retaining and
selecting circuit for retaining and selecting the digital
information signal and the delayed output thereof, and an
updating circuit for multiplying the output from the error
calculation circuit by the outputs from the retaining and
selecting circuit and to thereby update tab coefficients,
wherein the virtual determination circuit virtually determines
the value of a most plausible digital information signal by
detecting a peak and utilizing the correlationship between
signal components of the digital information signal.

Abstract: An outer reinforcement panel supports a toe board which
connects a front frame and a floor panel from the undersurface
of the toe board and an inner reinforcement panel supports the
toe board from the topsurface of the toe board. On the outer
reinforcement panel, three frames having U-shaped cross sections
are integrally formed with the outer reinforcement panel in a
radial manner and these frames are welded at the ends thereof
to primary body skeletons such as a side sill, a wheel house,
a side frame and the like. Similarly, on the inner reinforcement
panel, two frames having inverse U-shaped cross sections are
integrally formed with the inner reinforcement panel in a radial
manner and these frames are also welded at the ends thereof to
those primary body skeletons. Thus, a plurality of frames having
closed cross sections are formed on inner and outer surfaces of
the toe board and the floor panel. Even in the event of an offset
collision or an oblique collision, since an impact energy is
transmitted well diffusively to these body skeletons through
these frames, the damage to passengers can be minimized.
