Abstract: A method of creating a reference table where polygon elements
and rectangular pieces are connected with each other. The processor
searches, as first searched rectangular pieces, the rectangular pieces
that include the vertexes of the target polygon element, so as to
register the element number of the target polygon element for the rows
corresponding to the first searched rectangular pieces. Then the
processor searches, as second searched rectangular pieces, the
rectangular pieces that are traversed by the edges of the target
polygon element, so as to register the element number of the target
polygon element for the rows corresponding to the second searched
rectangular pieces. The processor further registers the element
number of the target polygon element for the rows corresponding to
the rectangular pieces that exist within the target polygon element, so
that the element number of the target polygon element is registered
with all of the rectangular pieces overlapping the target polygon
element. The processor repeatedly carries out the above-mentioned
registration process for all of the polygon element, and thereby, the
reference data table is obtained.

Abstract: From a parameter setting unit (107, 207, 307), a user enters values
for monitor start time (STime), check time (ETime) and a telephone number
for notification (TelNo). The entered parameter values are stored into a
storage unit (105, 205, 305, 306). A door opening/closing detection unit
(101, 201, 301) detects opening/closing of e.g. a bathroom door. During the
period from STime to ETime, the number of detections is counted and if the
counted value is at most a predetermined value, it is determined as
abnormal. When the abnormality is detected, a communication unit (115,
215, 315) is automatically connected via a general public line to TelNo set by
the user. A telephone to be notified is then notified of the abnormal
condition of an inhabitant. Thus, an abnormal condition detecting system
can be provided capable of appropriately detecting the abnormal condition of
the inhabitant and promptly taking action thereon.

Abstract: A differential mechanism is provided for a dual wheel assembly (10) including a spindle (12)
having a drive axle (14) defining a first rotational axis (A). First (16) and second (18) wheel hubs are
supported on the spindle adjacent to one another. The wheel hubs are driven by the
drive axle and are rotatable relative to one another about the first rotational axis. A
gear assembly (28) having a second rotational axis (B) transverse to the first rotational axis
mechanically couples the wheel hubs. A biasing assembly (39) engages the gear assembly
thereby preventing relative rotation between the wheel hubs when a torque is applied to
one of the wheel hubs below a desired amount from a road input. That is, the biasing
assembly and gear assembly cooperate with one another to lock the first and second
wheel hubs together so that they are driven together about the first rotational axis by the
drive axle. This is desirable when the vehicle is traveling a straight path to provide
maximum traction. However, when a torque is applied to one of the wheel hubs above
the desired amount, such as during a vehicle turn in which scrub commonly occurs, the
biasing assembly and gear assembly permit the first and second wheel hubs to rotate
relative from one another.

Abstract: Gyricon balls (200) are provided with magnetic pads

positions by means of a further stationary magnetic pad
(124). The magnetic pads are engulfed and sequestered from
sight so they do not decrement the brightness of the

magnetic pigments into the polyethylene plastic. The
addition of aluminum octoate to one hemisphere of the
gyricon ball causes the pigmented plastic on that side of
the ball to attempt to envelope the pigmented plastic on
parts of the ball that does not have aluminum octoate added
during the ball making process.

The network includes a switching node (202) that governs call setup, call control, and service access and switching with respect to the user. A Service Control Point (SCP) (106) is included in the network for the provisioning of VAS to the user. The SCP node includes a logic portion for determining whether an interaction between the user and an Intelligent Peripheral (204) is to be effectuated when a service is invoked and an appropriate service trigger (212) is transmitted from the switching node. Also included in the SCP is a logic portion for generating an instruction (214) to the switching node including a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) of the Intelligent Peripheral. The terminal (203) includes appropriate processor technology for local processing that allows accessing of the Intelligent Peripheral using the URL received from the switching node. The user may then interact with the service via the Intelligent Peripheral using various Web-based mechanisms, depending on the particular service invoked.
