Title: Electrical safety device integrated into furniture
Inventor: BROOK PETER
IPC: H02H1/06
Filed: 2012-11-27
Abstract: An electrical safety device 10, electrical appliance 12 or electrical power supply comprising a high voltage circuit having an electrical inlet terminal, an electrical outlet terminal and a high voltage switch. The device may be integrated into a piece of furniture such as a desk 14. When the high voltage switch is closed, the electrical inlet terminal 18 receives high voltage electrical power from a high voltage power supply 23, and delivers high voltage electrical power to the electrical outlet terminal 20. A safety isolation switch 22 may be provided in the high voltage circuit between the electrical inlet terminal 18 and the electrical outlet terminal 20. The electrical safety device 10 further comprises a control unit 30 in communication with the safety isolation switch 22, the control unit 30 being operable to detect a short circuit in the high voltage circuit when the high voltage switch is open. If a short circuit is detected, the control unit 30 is operable to open the safety isolation switch 22 such that the electrical outlet terminal 20 is isolated from the electrical inlet terminal 18. This prevents a user from needing to access an RCD or fuse which is in an inconvenient location.

Inventor: MRAK MARTA
IPC: H04N5/272
Filed: 2013-04-05
Abstract: For a video sequence including a composite image having a foreground image and a transparency mask, a video encoder encodes the foreground image and determines whether the transparency mask is the same as a transparency mask of a preceding image. Where the transparency mask is not the same, the transparency mask is encoded as an image. The encoder then transmits the encoded foreground image, any encoded transparency mask and a flag signifying whether the encoded transparency mask for a preceding image is to be used in association with the encoded foreground image of the current image. The transparency mask may be encoded as a binary transparency mask by partitioning into blocks, and may be identified as such by a flag.

IPC: G06F1/32
Filed: 2013-03-27
Abstract: A mechanism is provided for minimizing power consumption for operation of a fixed-frequency processing unit. A number of timeslots are counted in a time window where throttling is engaged to the fixed-frequency processing unit. The number of timeslots where throttling is engaged is divided by a total number of timeslots within the time window, thereby producing a performance loss (PLOSS) value. A determination is made as to whether determining whether the (PLOSS) value associated with the fixed-frequency processing unit is greater than an allowed performance loss (APLOSS) value. Responsive to the PLOSS value being less than or equal to the APLOSS value, a decrease in voltage supplied to the fixed-frequency processing unit is initiated.
