Patent EP-1182314-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MORRISON BRIAN
IPC: G07C9/00
Filed: 2001-08-01
Abstract: A transmitter, particularly useful for a remote keyless entry
system, includes a less expensive oscillator. A strategy for
compensating for tolerance variations caused by the less expensive
components includes sending out a test signal with an expected signal
profile. The test signal is then received and analyzed to compare it to
the expected signal profile. Variations in timing characteristics of the
signal compared to the expected characteristics are utilized to determine
correction factors that are then programmed into a microprocessor of the
transmitter so that subsequent signal transmissions will track an
expected signal profile.

Abstract: A three-dimensional graphic having a specific positional relationship with a predetermined point in an image made up of a three-dimensional graphic is detected. The image controller adds index information for identification to a plurality of three-dimensional graphics. The drawing device forms two-dimensional projected images by projecting the plurality of three-dimensional graphics onto predetermined planes. The two-dimensional projected images are assigned the index information corresponding to the index information assigned to the relevant three-dimensional graphics. When the projecting point(s) of a predetermined point in the image exist in the two-dimensional projected images, the graphics detector detects index information assigned to the two-dimensional projected images and detects the three-dimensional graphics assigned the index information corresponding to the detected index information.
