Abstract: An inductor is wound axially around a cylindrical
center structure, such as a core or form, so that each turn
includes portions extending axially along a circumferential
outer surface of the center structure and portions
extending across the end surfaces of the center structure.
Adjacent axial portions, which are preferably but not
necessarily consecutive turns, carry current in the same
direction to the extent possible. External magnetic fields
therefore fall off rapidly and at least partially offset so
that the inductor can handle high currents such as those
relating to filtered electric power transmitted into a
borehole for powering artificial lift equipment.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel input operation device in which multi-functionality corresponding to higher functionality of electrical equipment can be achieved along with tactile functionality suitable as a man-machine interface. 
     An input operation device (1) is provided with a switching portion (3) under a coordinate operation portion (2) that has dome-shaped coordinate operation portions (4a) and (5a) that are deformable due to operation press forces. An operator can perceive the deformation of the coordinate operation portion (2) during a coordinate operation as tactile operational feel. Further, an input operation of the switching portion (3) is performed if a large operational press force is applied, and therefore it is possible for the operator to perform the coordinate operation and the input operation while perceiving differences in the operation feel, which correspond to differences in an operation press force, and an erroneous input operation in the switching portion (3) can also be reliably prevented. The coordinate operation can be performed provided that the operation of pressing spherical surface similar to trackball operation is imparted to the dome-shaped coordinate operation portions (4a) and (5a), and it therefore extremely superior in functionality as well.

Abstract: A mutual recognition process is performed in step S1.
When it is determined in step S2 that a request for sending
a list of musical pieces has been received, the list of
musical pieces is sent in step S3. When a request for
sending audio data has been received in step 54; a transfer-rate
measurement process is executed in step S5. When it is
determined according to the transfer rate in step S6 that
the audio can be transmitted, the corresponding compressed
audio data is extracted in step 57, the compressed audio
data is decoded to generate linear PCM data suited to the
transfer rate in step S8, and transmitted in step S9. When
the audio data cannot be transmitted, an error message is
transmitted in step S10. The present invention can be
applied, for example, to a server for distributing audio
data and an audio player terminal for reproducing the
distributed audio data.

Abstract: A waveguide binding assay method involves detecting the scattering of light directed into the waveguide, the scattering being the result of scattering labels specifically bound to the waveguide within the penetration depth of an evanescent wave. The waveguide may be transparent plastic or glass and the binding is typically by oligonucleotide hybridization or immunological capture. Light scattering labels include colloidal metals or non-metals, including gold, selenium and latex. A light absorbing member consisting of dye or concentrated particles may also be employed to enhance signal. Real-time binding and dissociation can be monitored visually or by video imaging, such as with a CCD camera and frame grabber software. Hybridization mismatches of as few as one base can be distinguished by real-time melting curves.
