Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a robot audio-visual system performing the visual and auditory tracing of an object to perform the audio-visual servo of a robot, using both visual and auditory senses. SOLUTION: An auditory module 20 extracts an auditory event 28 by identifying the sound source of a speaker by pitch extraction and the separation and orientation of the sound source form an acoustic signal of a microphone. A visual module 30 extracts a visual event 39 by the face identification and orientation of the speaker from the image of a camera. A motor control module 40 extracts a motor event 49 from the rotating position of a drive motor. An association module 60 creates an auditory stream 65 and a visual stream 66 from the auditory event, visual event and motor event and creates an association stream 67 by associating these streams. An attention module 64 performs attention control on the basis of the association stream and performs the audio-visual servo of the robot.

Abstract: A base station (10) is installed in a predetermined area where a large number of target points are studded around the station (10). When the operator moves a mobile station (12) around the base station (10), display means is provided for both or either of the base station (10) that guides the operator and the mobile station (12), and a display screen (11; 31) of the display means displays two kinds of display modes, a Forward (foreground) mode and a Back (background) mode. In the Forward (foreground) mode, the display screen (11) of the display means displays a landscape in a forward direction (opposite direction to the mobile station by 180 DEG  when seen from the base station) of the operator (mobile station (12)) when the operator sees the base station (10) from the current position of the mobile station (12), or from the next target point (13) if the operator reaches the next target point (13). In the Back (backward) mode, the display screen (31) of the display means displays the landscape in a backward direction (direction of the operator and the mobile station (12) when seen from the base station (10)) of the operator (mobile station (12)) when the operator sees the base station (10) from the current position of the mobile station (12), or from the next target point (13) if the operator reaches the next target point. The relationship between the mobile station (12) and the next target point (13) is displayed on an imaginary landscape in an imaginary manner so that the operator can see the direction and distance for movement. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides a synthetic hydrated organosulfur agent, a method for producing it, and a method of using it for exterminating soil fungi. The synthetic hydrated organosulfur agent is prepared by adding starch to an inorganic hydrated sulfur agent, and sulfur is enveloped in starch in the agent. When the agent is applied to soil, microbes and pathogenic fungi (fusariums, pythiums and other various mold fungi) in soil act on the saccharides such as glucose polymerized with starch, and they are attracted by the grains of the agent. While the microbes and pathogenic fungi thus attracted them degrade the grains, they are kept in contact with the sulfur having been released from the degraded grains and are thereby killed. Not deactivated in soil, sulfur in the synthetic hydrated organosulfur agent exhibits its fungicidal activity for a long period of time. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A virtual address bar user interface control is presented. The virtual address bar includes a plurality of interactive segments, each segment corresponding to a predetermined filter for selecting content in a computer file system. Collectively, the interactive segments represent a virtual address for selecting content. Selecting an interactive segment in the virtual address bar causes those segments subsequent to the selected segment to be removed from the virtual address bar. A user may select a peer filter for a segment to replace that segment's current filter and removes those segments subsequent to the updated segment. The virtual address bar can be selectively configured to operate as a conventional address bar, and reconfigured to operate as a virtual address bar. Additional filter segments are added to the end of the existing filter segments. Those existing filter segments that conflict with the added segment are removed from the virtual address bar.

Abstract: A hardware-based file system includes multiple linked sub-modules that perform functions ancillary to client data handling. Each sub-module is associated with a metadata cache. A doubly-rooted structure is used to store each file system object at successive checkpoints. Metadata is stored within an object and/or as a separate object. Provisions are made for allocating sparse objects. A delayed write feature is used for writing certain objects into non-volatile storage. Checkpoints can be retained as read only versions of the file system. Modifications to the file system are accomplished without affecting the contents of retained checkpoints. The file system can be reverted to a retained checkpoint. Multiple file servers can be interconnected as a cluster, and each file server stores requests from another file server. Interconnections between file servers can be dynamically modified. A distributed locking mechanism is used to control access to file system objects stored by the file servers.
