Patent EP-0985899-A1 (EP)
Inventor: YERAZUNIS WILLIAM S
IPC: H04N5/225
Filed: 1999-03-03
Abstract: A compact video image recording device which is
mountable to a gun and useful for recording video
images before and after the firing of the gun. The
recording device includes a camera comprising a lens
and a video image sensor. The video recording device
is mounted on the gun such that the viewing area of
the camera includes the target area of the gun. The
video image sensor generates an electronic signal
representative of a video image impinging the respective
sensor. The output of the image sensor is processed
and generally employed to produce frame data
which are successively stored in successive frame
locations of a semiconductor memory organized as a
circular buffer memory while the video recording
device is in an active state. Upon the firing of the
gun, additional frames are stored in the buffer memory
for a short period of time and a portion of the
buffer memory is employed to preserve a video record
of the shooting both before and after the event.
Additional frames are successively stored in the
unused portion of the buffer memory. In the event of
a further firing of the gun, an additional portion of
the buffer memory is dedicated to preserving the
image data associated with subsequent firing
incident. This process may be repeated until the buffer
memory is full in the event the gut is repeatedly
fired. A video record is thus generated which documents
the circumstances preceding and following the
firing of the gun.

comprises a channel-shaped gripping or mounting portion (5) which
embracingly grips a flange (6) running around the periphery of
the opening. The mounting portion (5) supports a sealing portion
(20) on the outside of the opening which is sealingly compressed

mounting portion (5) on the inside of the opening. Around some
of the opening (e.g. the A pillar, the roof and the upper part
of the "B" pillar in the case of a front door opening), the
cosmetic lip (28) embraces the edge of the trim material.
However, along another part of the opening (the lower part of the
B pillar, for example) the cosmetic lip (28) is not appropriately
positioned to embrace the edge of the trim material. Instead,
the edge of the trim material is embraced by a flexible wall (34)

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for incorporating partial knowledge of system measurement noise into an adaptive filtering algorithm, for example in the context of an echo cancelation system. Adaptive algorithms according to the invention are obtained by minimizing a best linear unbiased estimate (BLUE) criterion function using a stochastic gradient method and by then converting to the frequency domain to reduce computational complexity. Advantageously, system noise characteristics are measured during natural pauses in user speech and then taken into account during filter adaptation. As a result, echo cancelers constructed according to the invention can provide good echo cancelation even in situations where there is considerable background noise. According to an exemplary embodiment, an echo cancelation device configured to suppress an echo component of an observed signal, wherein the echo component results from coupling of an echo source signal through an echo path. The echo cancelation device includes an adaptive filter configured to approximate the echo path and to thereby provide an estimate of the echo component, wherein an adaptive algorithm of the adaptive filter incorporates a measurement of a noise component of the observed signal.
