Title: Systeme ferme de reperes
Inventor: BARTON JAMES M
IPC: H04N5/445
Filed: 2000-09-20
Abstract: Cette invention concerne un système fermé de repères sous la forme d'un mécanisme qui permet d'insérer des repères dans le flux d'un programme de télévision audio ou vidéo avant le début ou au moment de la transmission. Ces repères renferment des informations de commande et de gestion que le récepteur traduit et exploite. A la réception du flux de programme, le récepteur détecte et traite les repères inclus dans le flux qui est stocké dans un dispositif de stockage intégré au récepteur. Le contenu du programme qui se trouve dans le flux est rediffusé à partir du dispositif de stockage. Le récepteur prend les mesures appropriées en réponse aux indications fournies par les repères. Ces repères indiquent les points correspondant au début et à la fin d'une séquence de programme. Pendant la retransmission, le récepteur saute une séquence de programme si le téléspectateur appuie sur un bouton de télécommande ou bien saute automatiquement certaines séquences de programme au gré des préférence du téléspectateur. Ainsi, des séquences de programmes telles que des annonces publicitaires seront automatiquement remplacées par d'autres séquences de programmes dont la sélection répond à divers critères. Les informations incluses dans les repères déterminent l'affichage de menus, d'icônes et de pages Internet. Le téléspectateur interagit avec le menu, l'icône ou la page Internet au moyen d'un dispositif d'entrée, cependant que le récepteur réagit par des actions correspondantes. Si un menu ou certaines opérations exigent que le téléspectateur quitte le programme en cours de retransmission, le récepteur sauvegarde le point de sortie, puis reprend le programme là où le téléspectateur l'a quitté une fois la séance d'interaction terminée. Les menus et les icônes servent à créer des pistes, générer des ventes et programmer l'enregistrement de programmes. Il existe une option d'enregistrement par touche unique. L'affichage d'une icône indique au téléspectateur qu'un programme annoncé pourra être enregistré ultérieurement. Le téléspectateur appuie sur un bouton commandant au récepteur de programmer l'enregistrement d'une émission.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système faisant appel à un système informatique comme télémicroscope. Ce système permet de saisir une pluralité d'images d'un spécimen (caméra vidéo scanneur caméra numérique). Ces images correspondent au spécimen dans son ensemble et à une pluralité de segments de ce spécimen (images à lien multiple). Les images à haute résolution correspondant à cette pluralité de segments possèdent différents niveaux et zones de grossissement (effet de loupe). Ce système produit une carte de lien entre les images (images à lien multiples). Cette carte de lien comprend des informations concernant l'emplacement géographique des images par rapport à la structure du spécimen (mesure géographique de l'image). Ces images et cette carte de lien sont transmises à un utilisateur éloigné via un réseau informatique, ce qui permet à l'utilisateur d'observer ces images selon différents niveaux de grossissement sans nuire à la qualité de l'image (poste informatique 1 et poste informatique 2). Les images transmises sont observées de façon dynamique, ce qui permet à l'utilisateur de naviguer, d'agrandir, de mesurer, de comparer, d'annoter et d'examiner les images numérisées sur une plaquette virtuelle affichée sur un écran d'ordinateur (mesure d'analyse d'image). Le fonctionnement du système correspond de près à celui d'un microscope optique classique.

Abstract: Compressing and decompressing techniques for transformation matrices 3D computer graphics systems use to animate objects achieve high compression ratios by taking advantage of common characteristics of homogenous 3D transformation matrices. The techniques use a bitmap to encode information on locations of ones and zeros of the matrix - bypassing the penchant of compilers to represent such information as high-precision numbers. Since most video game processors and display hardware are constrained by their resolutions and since an original transformation matrix often stores data that is more accurate than necessary, the techniques convert some real numbers in the matrix (e.g., those within the range of -1 and 1) into integers by scaling them by a constant. The resulting compressed matrices occupy much less storage space than their non-compressed counterparts, and can be efficiently decompressed in real time for use in interactive real time 3D animations.

Abstract: A purge (5) from excess lithium is operated separately from the carrousel effluent. The carrousel outputs are a flow (5) with ratio (e) from the first receiver and a flow (3) with ratio (Eo) at the carrousel outlet, where Eo is the stoichiometric equivalent of lithium exchangeable from the filter and e the excess required to obtain the desired exchange of lithium, preferably greater than 96%. Process for preparing X type zeolites with an atomic ratio of Si/Al less than or equal to 1.5 and preferably between 0.9 and 1.1, with the exchangeable cations being 50 to 99% lithium ions, preferably less than 96%; 4 to 50% trivalent ions and/or divalent ions; and 0 to 15% residual ions. These are agglomerated by a binding agent. The zeolite is placed in contact with a solution (1) containing lithium in at least two or preferably three receivers in series or carrousel. The order is modified in a cyclical manner at given time intervals, with the new solution being transposed each time from the first receiver which contains the zeolite which has been mot changed to lithium to the next receiver. Once the desired rate of exchange of lithium is reached, that receiver is disconnected from the carrousel and cleaned of the lithium solution before being emptied and replaced by a new load of zeolite. The lithium solution is at between 80 and 120 degrees C and preferably between 110 and 120 degrees C or greater than 120 degrees C with the system pressure. The pressure is preferably greater than the vapor pressure of the exchange solution at the considered temperature. The concentration of the solution is between 1 and 10 M, preferably between 3 and 6M. The rate of exchange of potassium in the zeolite before the lithium exchange is less than or equal to 15% of the total of the exchangeable sites, preferably less than or equal to 10%. Before the lithium exchange, the zeolite is converted so the great majority of exchangeable cations are monovalent, preferably sodium or ammonium before or after the zeolite is agglomerated. The LiCl purge is purified by crystallisation. The final effluent containing NaCl + KCl + traces of LiCl is recycled through the last receiver of the carrousel. The zeolite is divided into three fixed beds.
