Abstract: A new system and method for displaying one or more blinking
objects on a computer display device is disclosed that
includes selecting, responsive to a current display phase,
between a first sub-field and a second sub-field within
color information of a pixel value for each pixel within
the blinking object. The disclosed system generates a
color table index for displaying a given pixel within the
blinking object. The color table index is generated based
on a contents of the first sub-field of the color
information within the pixel value during a first display
phase. The color table index is generated based on a contents
of a second sub-field within the pixel value during a
second display phase. The disclosed system may read an
index from the pixel value into a pixel interpretation
table. The entry in the pixel interpretation table
obtained with the index includes a shift value. The
disclosed system then shifts the color information in the
pixel value by the number of bits in the shift value to
obtain the appropriate sub-field of the color information
for the current phase. The device driver modifies the
shift value to change which sub-field is used to display
the blinking object. Thus there is provided a new system
for displaying blinking objects capable of displaying large
numbers of blinking objects simultaneously, which does not
require high utilization of the CPU, and which does not
require an application software program to draw, erase, and
redraw each blinking object.

Abstract: The invention relates to a spreader for use on a
delivery tube of a seeding tool. The spreader is mounted for
adjustable positioning in the product stream providing a
selectable width of product scatter. The invention
preferably includes a tapered deflecting surface with a
convex laterally angled surfaces for achieving an even
scatter pattern, especially over the varying scatter widths.
The deflecting surface is pivoted or advanced into the
product stream to change the breadth of surface struck by
the product as a result causing different scatter patterns.
In a preferred embodiment the spreader includes a channel
for mounting onto the delivery tube with a pivot pin
pivotally securing it adjacent the outlet and selectively
adjustable securing points for angular adjustment. The
spreading deflecting surface is separated from the outlet in
the direction of product stream so that deflected product is
not shielded by the delivery tube. A forwardly facing
leading edge of a tapered spreading surface is directed into
the product stream preferably between 15° -30° to the stream
at approximately 65° to the horizontal to deflect product
forwardly and laterally in an even pattern.

Filed: 1998-05-05
Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for simultaneously generating, with the same radio antenna apparatus (10), a number of narrow beams and a wide beam, covering substantially the same area covered by the individual pointed beams together. The radio antenna apparatus (10) comprises an antenna array (3), a Butler matrix (2) connected to the antenna array and a set of amplifying modules (1a,...,1h). The activation of each of the inputs (L1,...,L8) of the radio antenna apparatus corresponds to a radiation pattern characterized by a narrow beam with a high antenna gain from the antenna array (3). By simultaneously activating the beam ports with the same signal with suitable phase relationships a superimposition of the radiation patterns to which the activated beam port corresponds is achieved in such a way that a wide beam is generated. Since all amplifying modules (1a,...,1h) are used simultaneously, the lower antenna gain of the wide beam will be compensated by a corresponding higher amplification. The wide beam will therefore have substantially the same range as the narrow beams.
