Title: Image-forming device
Inventor: YOSHIDA YASUNARI
IPC: B41J2/21
Filed: 2006-09-28
Granted: 2008-08-27
Abstract: An image-forming device forms an image having improving image quality by conveying a sheet in a nonuniform conveyance, and reduces a processing load required for calibrating a conveying length for the recording medium. In an image-forming device, a process for acquiring a theoretical conveying length for conveying a recording medium (S404) and for calibrating the theoretical conveying length (S409) is only executed for a large feed used to convey the recording medium a second conveying length greater than a first conveying length (S405: YES) and not for small feeds used to convey the recording medium the first conveying length (S405: NO). Since calibration is performed on the second conveying length, which is greater than the first conveying length, this method reduces a decline in precision for the conveying length of the recording medium, even when reducing the number of calibrations.

Abstract: The present invention provides an electrical connector assembly and a method of mating the same. The electrical connector assembly includes a panel sub-assembly (22) which mates to at least one electrical connector body (32). Preferably two cam leveraging devices (38,40) which rotate in opposing directions are mounted rotatably to the panel sub-assembly (22) for sliding engagement of respective cam studs (84,86,88,90) engaged rigidly to the electrical connector body (32). Opposing rotations of the cam leveraging devices (38,40) along respective and parallel rotation axes (42,44) causes the panel sub-assembly (22) to move linearly along a mating axis (36) disposed orthogonally to the rotation axes (42,44) and toward the electrical connector body (32) to a staged position. During linear panel sub-assembly movement from the disconnected position to the staged position, the cam studs (84,86,88,90) slide against a first portion (104) of a track (82) carried by respective cam levers (38,40) and which generally spirals radially inward toward the rotation axis. Reversing rotation of both cam leveraging devices (38,40) causes the panel sub-assembly (22) to continue linear movement toward the electrical connector body (32) from the staged position and to a mated position. During linear panel sub-assembly movement from the staged position to the mated position, the cam stud (84,86,88,90) lifts off of the first portion, and is caught by and slides along a second portion (118) of the track to a mated end (122).

Abstract: A video surveillance system (10) comprises a camera (25), a personal computer (PC) (27) and a video monitor (29). Video processing software is provided on the hard disk drive of the PC (27). The software is arranged to perform a number of processing operations on video data received from the camera, the video data representing individual frames of captured video. In particular, the software is arranged to identify one or more foreground blobs in a current frame, to match the or each blob with an object identified in one or more previous frames, and to track the motion of the or each object as more frames are received. In order to maintain the identity of objects during an occlusion event, an appearance model is generated for blobs that are close to one another in terms of image position. Once occlusion takes place, the respective appearance models are used, in combination with a depth factor representing the depth order of the occluded objects, to segment the resulting group blob into regions which are classified as representing one or other of the merged objects.
