Title: Local information reproduction on matching of a geographical selection parameter.
Inventor: LLOMBART-JUAN NURIA
IPC: G01C21/36
Filed: 2005-07-11
Abstract: A method for providing an information unit to a user is described, wherein the information unit describes an object having a predetermined spatial relationship to the user. The method includes detecting a kind of movement or a position of the user. Depending on the detected kind of movement or the position of the user, a geographic selection criterion is adjusted, wherein, depending on the predetermined spatial relationship of object to user, the geographic selection criterion specifies whether the information unit is provided or not. If a location of the user is located such with respect to a geographic position of the user that the geographic selection criterion is met, the information unit for the object is reproduced. An advantage is that the concept may be employed in applications in which the user gets into different environments and situations which, in turn, require different geographic selection criteria.

Title: Method and apparatus for film grain simulation
Inventor: GOMILA CRISTINA
IPC: G06T/
Filed: 2008-01-31
Abstract: The simulation of film grain in a video image occurs by first creating a block (i.e., a matrix array) of transformed coefficients for a set of cut frequencies fHL, fVL, fHH and fVH associated with a desired grain pattern. (The cut frequencies fHL, fVL, fHH and fVH represent cut-off frequencies, in two dimensions, of a filter that characterizes the desired film grain pattern). The block of transformed coefficients undergoes an inverse transform to yield a bit-accurate film grain sample and the bit accurate sample undergoes scaling to enable blending with a video signal to simulate film grain in the signal.

Patent HK-1121236-A1 (HK)
Title: Optical-based sensing devices
Inventor: COLVIN ARTHUR E
IPC: G01N21/64
Filed: 2009-02-06
Abstract: An optical-based sensor (10) for detecting the presence or amount of an analyte using both indicator and reference channels. The sensor has a sensor body (12) with a source of radiation embedded therein (18). A matrix layer is disposed on the surface of the sensor body which layer is permeable to an analyte and comprises fluroescent indicator molecules responsive to the concentration of the analyte. Radiation emitted by the source interacts with indicator membrane (3) indicator molecules (16) proximate the surface of the body. At least one optical characteristic of these indicator molecules varies with analyte concentration. For example, the level of fluorescence of fluorescent indicator molecules or the amount of light absorbed by light-absorbing indicator molecules can vary as a function of analyte concentration. In addition, radiation emitted by the source also interacts with reference membrane indicator molecules proximate the surface of the body. Radiation (e,g., light) emitted or reflected by these indicator molecules enters and is internally reflected in the sensor body. Photosensitive elements within the sensor body generate both indicator channel and reference channel signals to provide an accurate indication of the concentration of the analyte.
