Abstract: A deployable segmented dish-like reflector (14)
includes a main body (16) with one or more additional reflector
segments (18). Each reflector segment (18) is connected
to the main body (16) with one or more link members
(20), such that the entire reflector (14) may be stowed
into a compact volume and subsequently deployed to its operational
configuration. The system provides a mechanism
for stowing the at least one segment (18) in an overlapping
manner, substantially parallel to the main body (16), in
order to minimize its stowage volume. The linkage arrangement
allows the at least one reflector segment (18) to be
deployed from the stowed position to a desired final position.
Rate control and deployment coordination may be introduced
in a variety of ways .

Abstract: The method involves projecting an at least two-dimensional light pattern (light line) onto the stamped surface of a coin using a light source at an angle between 0 and 90 degrees to the stamped surface. The coin is moved passed a stationary light source so that successively part of or the entire stamped surface is illuminated. The illuminated coin surface is focussed by a lens onto an image pick-up. The variation of the light pattern while the coin passes the light source is detected. Data and image processing is used to compare the detected image data with reference image data to produce a genuine or forged signal. An apparatus for performing the method is also claimed.

Abstract: Edges of the tread are defined by its width (TW). Each runs into the region of a fourth, shoulder radius, where transition is made to the sidewalls. The radius TRA is given by 0.05 TR1 ≤ TR2 ≤ 0.65 TR1. TR2 is either smaller or greater than TRA. When TR2 is less than TRA, TR2 is given by 0.05 TR1 ≤ TR2 ≤ 0.6 TR1. When greater, TR2 is given by 0.1 TR1 ≤ TR2 ≤ 0.95 TR1. Preferred features: The radius TRA is given by 0.15 ≤ TRA ≤ 0.65 TR1. For the case that TR2 exceeds TRA, TR2 is given by 0.6 TR1 ≤ TR2 ≤ 0.95 TR1. TR1 is determined from 3 TW ≤ TR1 ≤ 25 TW, especially from 3 TW ≤ TR1 ≤ 6 TW. The region including the tire crown, with radius TR1, is determined by spacing TW1 between two locations running symmetrically about the tire crown. The size of TW1 is given by 0.1 TW ≤ TW1 ≤ 0.7 TW. Each region of radius TR2 reaches out to two locations in the outer contour, running symmetrically about the crown. Their spacing TW2 is given by 0.15 TW ≤ TW2 ≤ 0.9 TW. Transitions to the shoulder radii are each effected at spacing RA from tread edges, which amounts to 1.5 -14%, especially 3 -10% of the tread width TW.

Abstract: Used oil is treated in a reactor to remove contaminants. The reactor
comprises a rotating vessel housed within a heating chamber. The inside of the
vessel is indirectly heated by conduction through the vessel walls. The vessel
contains a permanently resident charge of non-ablating, coarse granular solids. Within
the vessel, the oil is vaporized and pyrolysed, producing a hydrocarbon vapour. Coke
is formed as a byproduct. Contaminants, such as metals and halides become
associated with the coke. The coarse granular solids scour and comminute the coke
to form fine solids. The fine solids are separated from the coarse solids and are
removed from the vessel. The hydrocarbon vapours are separated from any fine
solids and are routed to a vapour condensation system for producing a substantially
contaminant-free product oil. The contaminant-rich solids are collected for disposal.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for controlled copying of an audio or video signal transmitted over a cable television or direct satellite broadcast system or the internet. Copyrighted (or other) audio or video material is protected from unwanted copying (recording) by the combination of a watermark embedded in the audio or video signal at the head end together with additional copy protection data inserted in the audio or video signal, either a ticket or a second watermark. Video line (21) in the vertical blanking interval for (NTSC TV) is used to hold the ticket (cryptographic counter). An audio or video watermark is embedded in the active portion of the audio or video signal. Only if the consumer is willing to pay a fee is the video signal with both the watermark and the ticket transmitted to his recording device which then matches the watermark to a mathematical function of the ticket, and only if they match is recording permitted. Alternatively, this consumer control may operate on a second watermark in the audio or video. The corresponding playback device outputs an audio or video signal which does not have the ticket and hence no further copying is permitted. This enables a single copy to be made upon payment.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for scheduling control inputs in an embedded real-time system through anonymous events. An object-oriented design pattern is provided that treats all events anonymously using an abstracted interface. Events are said to be anonymous since the details of each event are irrelevant, i.e., only the resource usage of the event is characterized and exposed. Deadlines and priorities are assigned to each event, as appropriate for the required quality of service (i.e., urgent events, routine events or deferred events). Response times for each event are appropriate to the quality of service associated with the event. Guaranteed response time determinism for time-critical events is implemented by re-clocking the event to a periodic time indication, such as a video synchronization signal delineating frames in a video feed. Events are validated against system resources at the time the events are submitted to the system to ensure that sufficient resources will exist when the event is to be executed, and if sufficient resources will exist, a commitment is provided.
