Abstract: Methods and apparatus for dynamically labeling map objects for different views of a visually displayed map are disclosed. For each view of a plurality of different views of a map, a view of the map is rendered "on-the-fly" in a display. The technique is performed by retrieving map data which includes map object graphics data and map object label data;  causing one or more portions of a map object (e.g. a road) to be rendered in the view of the display in accordance with the map object graphics data; and also causing a map object label (e.g. a name of the road) to be rendered in the view of the display, in accordance with the map object label data, on or along a portion of the map object between its vertice coordinates, such that a linear position of the map object label on or along the portion of the map object is different from its linear position in each of the other views of the map so that the map object label fits within the view in a continuous moving fashion from view to view. In a specific embodiment, the map object label is rendered by identifying the portion of the map object to be a longest portion of the one or more portions of the map object in the view; identifying a centerpoint of the portion identified to be the longest portion; and causing the map object label to be rendered relative to the centerpoint of the portion identified to be the longest portion.

IPC: H02P9/04
Filed: 2006-07-26
Abstract: A wind turbine system includes a variable blade assembly including adjustable sails and wing shaped masts expanding the wind velocity capture envelope. The blade assembly turns a hydraulic pump, which pressurizes fluid and stores the pressurized fluid in a chamber in the support tower. Pressurized fluid is directed via an electronically controllable proportioning valve to a hydraulic motor which is coupled to an electric generator. A computer control module operates the proportioning valve regulating pressure to the hydraulic motor, maintaining generator rotational speed, and providing consistent output frequency to the power grid. Stored energy in the high pressure tank is used to continue generator operation after the winds cease, allowing early warning notification to the power management system of impending power loss. Residual pressure maintained in the high pressure tank allows restart operations via hydraulic pressure rather than power grid energy drain. On site high energy capacitors store additional energy.

Abstract: A ballast (10) for powering a lamp load (70) comprising one or more gas discharge lamps (72,74) includes an inverter (200), a resonant output circuit (400), and a control circuit (600). During operation of ballast (10), control circuit (600) monitors at least one voltage within one or more series resonant circuits of output circuit (400). When the monitored voltage reaches a specified level, control circuit (600) directs inverter (200) to maintain its operating frequency at a present value for a predetermined period of time, so as to allow output circuit (400) to provide a suitably high voltage for igniting the lamp(s). If the lamp(s) ignite within the predetermined period of time, control circuit (600) ceases controlling inverter (200) to maintain its operating frequency at the present value, so as to allow for normal operation of the lamp(s). Control circuit (600) also provides a lamp stabilization function, in which the inverter operating frequency is prevented from falling below a specified minimum value, and a protective function, in which inverter (200) is deactivated in response to failure of the lamp(s) to ignite within the predetermined period of time.
