Patent JP-5310529-B2 (JP)
IPC: G02B26/08
Filed: 2009-12-22
Granted: 2013-10-09
Abstract: A plurality of movable units is arranged in a matrix. First and second electrodes are used in common in the movable units arranged in a column. A plurality of third electrodes, which commonly connects tabular members of the movable units arranged in a row, is formed for each row. The drive circuit selects, in order and one by one, the third electrodes. Subsequently, the drive circuit swings the tabular member by applying a bias voltage to the selected third electrode and applying an approach voltage or a separating voltage to a plurality of the first electrodes and second electrodes. During a predetermined period of maintaining a swinging posture, the voltage applied to the third electrodes is maintained as the bias voltage. The tabular member is returned to a non-swinging state by changing the voltage applied to the third electrodes to a reset voltage after the lapse of the predetermined period.

Abstract: A Network Device (ND) may be configured to enable secure digital video streaming for HD (high definition) digital video systems over a standard network. The ND may operate in at least one of two modes, a co-processor mode and a stand-alone mode, and may provide at least three high level functions: network interface control (NIC), video streaming offload (VSO), and stand-alone video streaming (SVS). To seamlessly execute the VSO functionality, the ND may be configured to have two network stacks running synchronously on a single network interface having a single network address. The two network stacks may share the data traffic, while the Host network stack may act as a master, and configure the ND network stack to accept only specifically designated traffic, thus offloading some of the data processing to the processor configured in the ND. The ND network system may appear as an ordinary network controller to the Host, from which the user may configure the ND network driver to obtain/set the network address, configure the physical layer link speed and duplex mode, configure the multicast filter settings, and obtain and clear the network level statistics.
