Abstract: System and method for formation of a hermetic seal (1106, 1107) with an significantly
greater melting temperature than the melting temperature of the solder (1101) employed. The
hermetic seal (1106, 1107) is formed from a solder (1101) with a low melting point and a
metal (1102, 1105) having a predetermined thickness that corresponds to the solder (1101).

Abstract: Skew angle in a document image (A) is estimated using operators known
from mathematical morphology. Skew angle in a document image (A) is estimated
by run-length smoothing the image and then producing a plurality of eroded run-length-smoothed
images. The run-length-smoothed image (RLSA(A)) is eroded
using a linear structuring element (k 2 L α ) oriented at each of a plurality of different
angles (α). The angle of the linear structuring element which produces an eroded
image having the greatest surface area is designated as the skew angle. A plurality
of run-length-smoothed images (RLSA α (A)) may be produced, each generated by
smoothing the document image using a linear structuring element (k 1 L α ) oriented at a
respective different angle (α i ). Then each run-length smoothed image (RLSA α (A)) is
eroded using a linear structuring element oriented at the corresponding angle (α i ).

Abstract: An electro-magnetic clutch apparatus (1) includes a plurality of
planetary gears (13). The plurality of gears is configured so that they engage
with and revolve around a first rotatable body (12,15) when the first rotatable
body is rotating. A second rotatable body (14) provides support for the
