Patent CA-2755141-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHOI YOUNG-BUM
IPC: A45D1/04
Filed: 2009-12-02
Abstract: A hair iron according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a lower casing equipped with a lower grill, a lower heating unit with a built-in lower heater, the lower grill and the lower heating unit being integrated in one body, and a lower thermal plate arranged at the upper end of the lower heating unit to apply heat to hair;  and an upper casing equipped with an upper grill, an upper heating unit with a built-in upper heater, the upper grill and the upper heating unit being integrated in one body, and an upper thermal plate arranged at the lower end of the upper heating unit to apply heat to hair, wherein insertion grooves are formed on the top surface of the lower thermal plate in the longitudinal direction on both sides respectively, and damping members are retractably seated in the insertion grooves. According to the present invention, when hairs are pressed between the lower thermal plate and the damping member and subjected to heat, the hairs are pressurized and well pressed by softening properties of the damping member made of heat-resistant silicon and at the same time, the damping member smoothly slides down and easily straightens curly hairs. As the upper end of the damping member becomes swollen from the insertion groove by heat emitted from the lower thermal plate and then protrudes from the surface of the lower thermal plate, the hairs are gently straightened along the outer surface of the damping member and there may be fewer gaps created between the upper and lower thermal plates. In addition, when straightening curly hairs, the hairs are kept from coming into direct contact with the lower thermal plate, by means of the damping member that is protruded by a predetermined height, so hair damage due to the upper and lower thermal plates in hot states can be overcome. Also, even when wet hairs are being straightened and therefore hair moisture flows into the insert grooves via gaps between the damping members and the insert grooves, stoppers disposed on both sides of the insert groove prevents water leakage and an exothermic reaction of the upper and lower thermal plates can evaporate the moisture inside the insertion groove.  Moreover, as the damping members are concealed from outside view when the hair iron is not in used, aesthetic appearance of the hair iron can be improved, and the damping members are protected from damage.

Abstract: Provided is a highly effective coding method for a multiview video having mismatches between cameras in terms of local brilliance and color. A viewpoint synthesized image corresponding to a coding target frame in a multiview video is synthesized from a previously coded reference viewpoint frame which has been photographed from a reference viewpoint which is different from a coding target viewpoint, and at the same time that the coding target frame from the coding target viewpoint was photographed. With respect to each processing unit area having a predetermined size, a reference area on the previously coded reference frame from the coding target viewpoint and corresponding to the viewpoint synthesized image is searched. A correction parameter for correcting the mismatches between cameras is estimated from the viewpoint synthesized image corresponding to the processing unit area, and the reference frame corresponding to the reference area. The estimated correction parameter is used to correct the viewpoint synthesized image corresponding to the processing unit area. The video from the coding target viewpoint is subjected to prediction coding using the corrected viewpoint synthesized image.
