Title: Diagnostic device
IPC: G01N22/00
Filed: 1990-05-09
Abstract: A coaxial microwave absorption diagnostic device 
comprises a hollow cylindrical outer layer conductor with a 
coaxially aligned conductor rod extending therethrough and a 
dielectric material which interconnects the outer layer to 
the conductor rod. The device is formed with a passageway 
which is directed perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of 
the device and which passes through the outer layer, the 
conductor rod and the dielectric material. As so formed, 
the passageway is positioned for receiving a sample or a 
sample holder, such as a small capillary tube holding a 
sample solution. A variable or fixed frequency oscillator 
is electrically connected to an input end of the conductor 
rod for sending microwave power through the device and a 
diode senses the output portion of this microwave power 
which has passed through the device. The absorbed power, 
i.e. the input microwave power less the output microwave 
power, is determined by a comparator and used to analyze the 
sample.

Title: Silicon dioxide deposition method and apparatus
IPC: H01L21/302
Filed: 1991-09-11
Abstract: In plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) of silicon 
dioxide on a substrate, voids and discontinuities are reduced by first depositing 
silicon dioxide in a sputter etch chamber (22) in which a magnetic field is produced 
within the rf plasma for depositing the silicon dioxide. Simultaneous sputter etch 
and deposition occurs which inhibits net deposition at the corners of metal 
conductors over which the silicon dioxide is deposited. The substrate is then 
removed and transferred through a load lock (27) to a conventional PECVD 
deposition chamber (23).

Title: Apparatus and method for marking a rubber article with a message readable by a light scanning device.
Inventor: GARTLAND ROBERT JOHN
IPC: G06K1/12
Filed: 1993-12-14
Abstract: An apparatus and method for supplying a graphic label that is readable with a light scanning device with such label placed on a rubber article. The graphic bar code label is optically interpreted with a bar code reader. Thus, the cured substrate with the label with the graphic message is produced by using thermal transfer techniques. For this purpose, the ribbon in contact with the substrate passes by a print head and the ink can be selectively heated with this operation being synchronized by computer operation. When the ribbon is stripped away, the ink is left where heating occurred on the substrate material. The printed substrate exits and is cut to produce labels of desired length. The label is placed on a cured or curable article and the label and substrate are subjected to curing conditions to effect transfer of the label to the cured substrate which may now contain the message in solely, alphanumeric, bar codes, human readable characters, and logos or mixtures of them. The bar code message is normally printed as a series of vertical bars and spaces of varying widths to supply the message in readable form with the light reflected from the series of varying width bars and spaces. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A video signal is supplied to a contour signal generating circuit (15-29). The
contour signal produced at the output (28, 29) thereof is Gamma corrected
multiplying (30) the contour signal with a Gamma correction signal produced by a
correction circuit (50, 51). The correction circuit (50, 51) comprises a low pass filter
(50) which attenuates the high frequencies of the video signal, and a Gamma
inclination circuit which selects a linear Gamma correction segment for high
frequencies and a non-linear correction function for low frequencies. 
     The video signal is also Gamma corrected in a Gamma correction circuit 34
in which high frequencies are corrected by a linear function and low frequencies are
corrected by a non-linear function. 
     The Gamma corrected contour signal is added to the Gamma corrected video
signal in an adder (52). 
     Aliasing is avoided due to the Gamma correction of the contour signal and yet
suitable emphasis of image contours is achieved.

Patent EP-0817003-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06T11/20
Filed: 1997-07-01
Abstract: Data components in a first, processing format, each of which includes a selected portion
which represents the data component in a second, display format, are merged to form an
interleaved data word in which the selected portions of data components are grouped. For
example, two pixel components, which are represented in a two-byte format in which the least
significant byte represents each pixel component in a one-byte format, are merged to form a four-byte
interleaved word in which the first two bytes are the most significant bytes of the pixel
components in the two-byte format and in which the next two bytes are the least significant bytes
of the peel components in the two-byte format. Since the least significant bytes of the pixel
components in the two-byte format are equivalent to the two pixel components represented in the
one-byte format, the two pixel components are effectively converted to a two-byte word in which
each pixel component is represented in the one-byte format. A merge computer instruction is
capable of interleaving respective bytes of two four-byte words and is used once to group most
significant bytes and least significant bytes of first and second pixel components represented in a
two-byte format and to group most significant bytes and least significant bytes of third and fourth
pixel components represented in the two-byte format and a second time to group the most
significant bytes of the first, second, third, and fourth pixel components and to group the least
significant bytes of the first, second, third, and fourth pixel components. The least significant
bytes of the first, second, third, and fourth pixel components represent the first, second, third, and
fourth pixel components in a one-byte format and are stored as the respective pixel components in
the one-byte format. Thus, four pixel components are converted from a two-byte format to a
one-byte format using only two computer instructions. Eight contiguous bytes can be accessed in
a single read computer instruction or a single write computer instruction. Accordingly, two read
computer instructions retrieve eight pixel components in a two-byte Format. The eight pixel
components are converted to a one-byte format using four merge computer instructions and are
stored in memory using a single write computer instruction. Accordingly, a four-band graphical
image which includes one million pixels can be converted from a two-byte processing format to a 
one-byte display format using one million read computer instructions, one-half million merge
computer instructions, and one-half million write computer instructions.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a
facsimile machine having a telephone conversation function,
which can securely shift the facsimile communication mode
to the telephone conversation mode after facsimile
communication even if an error occurs during facsimile
communication, without using a telephone conversation
reservation function. After facsimile communication is
started, when facsimile communication is stopped through
the transmission of predetermined signals between the
calling party side facsimile machine and the receiving party
side facsimile machine in case image data to be transmitted
is completely transmitted or when a communication error
occurs because of paper jamming, the main controller (12)
keeps occupying the communication line (1) occupied by the
line controller (2), and the signal sound on the occupied
communication line (1) is externally emitted by the speaker
(11). When the calling party recognizes that the receiving
party requests a call depending on the signal sound
transmitted from the communication line (1) and externally
emitted by the speaker (11) and lifts the handset (3), the
lifting of the handset (3) is detected by the hook switch
(4). The main controller (12) then controls the line
controller (2) to enable conversation with the receiving
party side facsimile machine via the handset (3).
