Abstract: There is provided a system of steering stimulus pulses to one or more selected cardiac sites, for improved capture and for easy adjustment of the stimulus pulse when threshold level has changed, without the need to simply increase stimulus power or to replace an implanted lead. The invention utilizes, in a cardiac environment, the technique of delivering substantially concurrent pulses across two or more electrode pairs, each component pulse being adjusted as to pulse, duration and/or phase to steer, or direct the resultant composite pulse toward the target cardiac site. Embodiments of the invention include steering pulses for pacing of the left atrium; steering pulses for multichamber pacing; improved use of a single lead system with electrodes floating in the atrium, with specific steering of atrial pulses to provide an enhancement of a VDD system; steered delivery of atrial and/or ventricular defibrillation stimuli; and steered stimuli for arrhythmia prevention. In other specific embodiments, the steered pulse system is combined with capture detection and automatic adjustment of the steering parameters.

Abstract: A communication system (100) having communicating devices (101-106)
coupled to a closed loop bus (110) substantially reduces interconnect distances
and corresponding signal propagation delays between the devices. Particular devices
possess switchable impedance elements that can be selectively actuated to produce
an effective terminating impedance substantially at a midpoint position along the
closed loop from the coupling point of a transmission device. In such an
arrangement, the produced effective terminating impedance would cause the signal
transmitted by the transmission device to propagate to a destination device
substantially without signal degradation due to signal reflections.

Abstract: An electronic image recording apparatus is a digital still camera, for example. If a
camera mode is set by using a mode selecting button, an image signal from an imager is
compressed and recorded into a flash memory. Then, if a sound button is depressed,
during a constant time period, a sound signal to the image data is compressed and written
into the memory. At this time, an address of an area in which the sound data is recorded
is written in an image data area. If a continuous reproducing mode is set by the mode
selecting button, a CPU reads first image data from the memory, and expands the image
data and writes into a VRAM. Therefore, the first image data is displayed on an attached
liquid crystal monitor. The CPU determines whether or not the recording address of the
sound data is written in the image data area. When the address is recorded, a first sound
data is read from the memory according to the address, and the first sound data is
expanded and outputted on a speaker and etc. The sound data is recorded for the constant
time period, and therefore, the CPU reproduces second image data after the first sound
data is wholly reproduced.

Abstract: The present invention is intended to extend the
operation life of a recording medium and to assure the safety
of data writing to UDA. 
     A recording medium includes a user data area (UDA)
for writing real data and a program memory area (PMA) for
writing management data. In PMA, repetitive writing
operation number NA of UDA, write end address AE, operation
life number NL and final address AL, etc. are written. On
the occasion of recording the real data to UDA, writing is
started from the address next to the write end address AE
at the time of the preceding recording operation and after
the recording is executed up to the final address AL, data
writing is started again from the address 0 to give increment
of one (1) to NA. The real data is written in average up
to the final address from the start address of UDA. When
NA exceeds NL, warning is displayed and the disc ejected.
Writing of real data to UDA in which safety of writing is
not assured can be avoided.

Abstract: A colour registration adjusting method in an image
forming apparatus includes the steps of (a) discriminating
whether the detected pulse width for the edge of a
photoreceptor belt is smaller than the expected pulse
width therefor or not; (b) setting the detected pulse
width to a scanning start signal (an edge signal mixed) if
the detected pulse width is smaller than the expected
pulse width in the step (a), and setting a value obtained
by subtracting a predetermined value from the currently
expected pulse width to the next expected pulse width; (c)
setting the expected pulse width to a scanning start
signal (an edge signal mixed) if the detected pulse width
is greater than or equal to the expected pulse width in
the step (a), and, to set the next expected pulse width,
discriminating whether the counted value of a pulse is
smaller than an offset value; (d) setting a value obtained
by subtracting a predetermined value from the currently
expected pulse width is set to the next expected pulse
width if the pulse counted value is smaller than the
offset value in the step (c); and (e) setting a value
obtained by adding a predetermined value to the currently
expected pulse width to the next expected pulse width if
the pulse counted value is greater than or equal to the
offset value in the step (c). The detected pulse width
and the expected pulse width for the edge of a
photoreceptor belt are compared to each other to set the
result to a scanning start signal (an edge signal mixed).
Particularly, since some of the next expected pulse widths
are discriminated by comparing the pulse counted value and
offset value, the mis-registration of colour in the main
scanning direction of a laser beam can be adjusted
quantitatively.

Abstract: Reduced performance of a fuel cell formed of a plurality
of stacked unit cells caused by unequal gas flow rates in
the unit cells is avoided through the use of separators,
each having a plurality of through holes extending
therethrough and a recessed portion formed in a surface
of each separator. In a fuel cell incorporating such
separators, the recessed portion of each separator forms
an in-cell oxidative gas passage, together with an
adjacent cathode. An oxidative gas, supplied from an
external device into the fuel cell, is distributed from
an oxidative gas supply manifold formed by holes of the
separators, to the in-cell oxidative gas passages. The
oxidative gas is then collected in an oxidative gas
discharge manifold formed by holes of the separators, and
conveyed out of the fuel cell by the discharge manifold.
During the passage through each in-cell oxidative gas
passage, the oxidative gas flows via an oxidative gas
transit manifold formed by holes of the separators.
