Patent EP-1278160-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NICHOGI MUTSUKO
IPC: H04N19/85
Filed: 2002-07-03
Abstract: Disclosed are an image compression device for accurately
compressing and reproducing a multi-spectral image, an image
of a color space not dependent upon a device and lighting or
a multi-primary-color image, and an image uncompression
apparatus utilizing the same. An image compression device
comprises a cluster storing section for storing a parameter for
classifying image signals of an input image into a plurality
of clusters, a cluster fixing section for fixing which cluster
each of the inputted image signal belongs to that is stored in
the cluster storing section; and a cluster-base image
compressing section for performing a different image
compression processes of image signal on a cluster-by-cluster
basis. The image compression device thus configured can
accurately compress and reproduce, at high compression ratio,
a multi-spectral image, an image of a color space not dependent
upon a device and lighting or a multi-primary-color image.
Accordingly, when transmitting and receiving multidimensional
images between remote locations, the data amount
of transmission can be reduced for efficient transmission and
reception.

Abstract: A control system of a vehicle having a continuously variable
transmission (2), in which the continuously variable transmission capable of
changing a gear ratio continuously is coupled to the output side of a power
source to control the output torque of the power source (1) in accordance with
an inertial torque established by changing the gear ratio. The output
torque of the power source is controlled (23) to a torque which is based on the
inertial torque and a target torque based on a demand for changing a
driving force. The system reduces the "backing" or "transient surge"
vibrations which may occur when the gear ratio changes e.g. during
downshifting.

Abstract: An inputting device, an electronic instrument using this
inputting device, and an inputting method thereof, in which
displacement of an operating section in the direction slanting for the X or
the Y direction is detected and the movement of a moving object such as
a cursor on a display can be controlled easily and precisely, are provided.
The operating section is displaced about in the horizontal direction and
the vertical direction for a plane being almost parallel to the surface of a
cabinet. In case that orthogonal coordinates having the X axis and the
Y axis are set on the plane being almost parallel to the surface of the
cabinet, horizontal direction sensors detect the displacement of the
operating section in the direction slanting for the X or Y direction, in
addition to in the X or Y direction. The cursor moves on the display
based on the displacement of the operating section about in the
horizontal direction. Information being selected by the cursor on the
display is decided by the displacement of the operating section about in
the vertical direction.

Abstract: An address device simultaneously provides a first address to a first memory
section using a first address bus and a second, incrementally higher, address to
a second memory section using a second address bus. A buffer can then read
from or write to the first and second memory sections. During a read
operation, the buffer can receive a first portion of a misaligned data word from
the first memory section and read a second portion of the misaligned data
word from the second memory section and assemble the data in the data word
from the first and second portions. When the access operation is a write
operation, the buffer can effectively perform a shift operation on the data in
the data word, then write a first portion of the word to the first memory section
and write a second portion of the word to the second memory section.
Accordingly, data accesses that would take two memory-access cycles on a
conventional memory system are reduced to a single memory-access cycle.
