Patent CA-2166623-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PARKE IAN
IPC: H03M7/36
Filed: 1994-07-29
Abstract: A system for encoding video frames in accordance with the MPEG standard, in real-time. Motion vectors are calculated during the forward prediction of B frames and P frames using a telescoping procedure. Similarly, a telecoping procedure is used for calculating motion vectors for B frames during backwards predictive coding. The use of telescoping for the backward predictive coding results in B frames being coded in the wrong order. The correct order for B frames is re-established by writing the frames to a buffer (97) in the order in which they are generated and then reading the frame data from the buffer in tbe order in which they are required for transmission or recording purposes. The use of the telescoping procedure reduces significantly the amounts of computation required for calculating motion vectors during predictive coding for frames which are displaced by more than one frame period. The use of a buffer to reorganise the frames does not add significantly to the overall hardware requirement because such a buffer would often be used for smoothing out irregular data rates.

Patent CA-2169220-A1 (CA)
Title: Control forward introducer needle and catheter assembly
Inventor: BRIMHALL GREG L
IPC: A61M25/06
Filed: 1996-02-09
Abstract: The catheter includes a catheter hub at its proximal end having a pair of spaced apart squeeze grips radially extending from the catheter hub. The needle is connected at its proximal end to a needle hub. The needle hub has a circumferentially extending bump formed adjacent to its distal end. The needle and needle hub fit within a slide assembly comprising a tubular portion with a circumferentially extending groove formed therein and a radially extending fin extending from the outer surface of the tubular portion of the slide assembly. The bump of the needle hub mates in the groove of the slide assembly to allow rotation of the needle hub with respect to the slide assembly. However, the bump and the groove are dimensioned to prevent relative axial movement between the needle hub and the slide assembly. The fin on the slide assembly extends forward so as to be positioned between and extend beyond the pair of squeeze grips on the catheter hub. This arrangement allows the distal tip of the needle to be retracted into the catheter with a simple motion by the healthcare worker.

Patent CA-2176985-A1 (CA)
Title: Smart Tray for Audio Player
Inventor: GREWE ANTHONY JAMES
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 1996-05-21
Abstract: The present invention is a smart tray for an in-home audio player adapted to play pre-recorded music stored on a semiconductor music chip storage medium. Music chips are loaded into the smart tray which holds a predetermined number of chips and is inserted as part of the audio player. Each tray will have a low cost, low power microprocessor on board to handle routing and accessing of the music from an individual chip on the tray. For instance, the tray level microprocessor will be able to cue up a next song selection while a digital signal processor (DSP) within a base portion of the audio player finishes decoding the current selection. The smart tray minimizes music selection search times and allows the DSP to focus on processing the encoded music from the chips thereby minimizing housekeeping activities performed by the DSP and increasing efficiency. The smart tray allows for active music selections by the user so that the user can select a particular artist, song, music style, etc. with the touch of a button. This can be done since the music chips self-register content and music style to the smart tray upon power up. The audio player can be expanded by adding additional smart trays up to a predetermined limit.
