Abstract: The invention relates to a charge-coupled imaging device whose width/height ratio is adjustable in that a number of columns situated in two strips on either side of the sensor are not used. The charge generated in these columns is placed in the horizontal output register simultaneously with the active information which is to be used, and is drained off in the flyback time between consecutive active line times through the or an output of the output register. Since the said non-active strips are situated on either side of the sensor, the location of the centre of the active portion of the matrix is fixed, independent of whether the information from the said strips is or is not used, so that in every state of the sensor this centre coincides with the optical centre of the optical system used.

Abstract: A display microcomputer displays a menu corresponding to several functions, such as picture-in-picture display and satellite broadcast reception on a mini-viewing screen that is part of the cathode-ray tube picture screen of a television receiver. A remote controller permits selection of different video and audio signal sources and, if the user selects sources that are incompatible or inconsistent, a system controller returns the menu to the condition prior to the incorrect selection. The system controller also controls a display microcomputer in such a way that items on the menu that are inhibited from selection are displayed in halftone. That is, if any inhibited item appears in the menu by a modification of the mode of operation, the display microcomputer is controlled so that the menu is returned to the condition prior to the selection and the inhibited item is displayed in halftone. For example, erroneous operation that would change the reproduced sound of a duplex sound channel while the user is watching a picture reproduced from a video tape recorder is prevented, because the set value for the duplex sound can not be varied by the user.

Abstract: When the low bit rate coding is effected in a recording system 1A, a signal is coded and recorded in a hierarchical structure. On the reproduction side, the type of a recorded signal (the low bit rate coded signal of the hierarchical structure, non-hierarchical structure, conventional analog recording or the like) is determined by a determination system 1E and the operation modes of a digital signal processing system 1G and an analog signal processing system 1F are set. The analog signal processing system processes a reproduced signal when it is analog signal. The digital signal processing system processes a reproduced signal when it is a digital signal or when a reproduced output from the analog signal processing system is processed in a digital manner. Further, hierarchical decoding means G30 and inverse converting means G40 are provided, a signal processed in the hierarchical structure can be restored to an original form, and the restored reproduced signal can be processed by use of system conversion means G60 and converted to a desired system and output. As a result, various types of input video signals can be recorded in a preset form and various forms of recorded video signals can be reproduced and output in a desired form. Further, an analog recorded signal can be reproduced and output after converted to a desired form.

Abstract: The actual position and velocity of a photoreceptor belt (10) is accurately measured by sensing the passing of illuminated holes (12A-12C) in the belt (10), as the belt moves in a process direction. A segmented sensor array (22) is positioned so as to view the passing of the illuminated holes (12A-12C). A Gaussian light intensity distribution is sensed by a group of sensor pixels which sense the light during a sampling interval. The array (22) produces an output which is operated upon by a centroid processor (32) to determine the center of moment for each sampled intensity distribution. A prediction is then made for projected position of the belt (10) which is very accurate since the centroid calculation is not effected by noise produced by stray light or poorly defined image edges.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling a raster display (20) includes generating by means of a management system (32) a first display map (38) defining sequential picture element runs, each run having a common set of windows containing the picture elements of the run. The windows are arranged in a stacking order and include a topmost window which is drawn in the raster display, the other windows being covered by the topmost window. A window operation occurs when a window is added, deleted or moved, and when the window stacking order is changed. In response to a window operation, there is generated a second display map (40) defining sequential picture element runs, each run having a common set of windows containing the picture elements of the run. The windows are arranged in a stacking order and including a topmost window which is drawn in the raster display, the other windows being covered by the topmost window. In order to refresh the raster display, the management system compares the first display map with the second display map to identify picture elements whose topmost window has changed. The raster display is repainted by writing the changed picture elements with data from the topmost window of the identified picture elements.

Abstract: An on-line technique which allows the monitoring and adjustment of switching node control parameters within an optical network. More specifically, a technique wherein a low-frequency modulation is induced upon an optical signal as it passes through a node within a switch or sub-system by varying the control voltage applied to that node about what is assumed to be the optimum control voltage level, the optical signal at position downstream from the node is analyzed to ascertain the amplitude, frequency, and phase characteristics of the induced low-frequency modulation, and a determination is made, on the basis of the amplitude, frequency, and phase information, as to the whether the control voltage which was assumed to be optimal is indeed at the correct level to insure proper operation of the node. The amplitude of the induced low-frequency modulation may be maintained at low level so as not to interfere with the transmission of the primary information and data carried by the optical signal. Analysis of the amplitude, frequency, and phase of the modulated signal may be performed at a single fixed location within the network. Furthermore, multiple switching nodes may be monitored simultaneously from a single location within the network by modulating each node at a unique frequency. This allows each modulated signal received to be differentiated from all others, and readily identified as having originated at a particular node.

Abstract: A rotating magnetic storage device is shown wherein the transducer and media are separated during operation by a thin film of low viscosity liquid lubricant that is recirculated from a reservoir within the head-media enclosure. Lubricant recirculation can be effected by capillary action using a wick, mechanical pumping and metering or distillation techniques. As compared to devices using air bearing separation, the transducer carrying slider has very small bearing surfaces which may be in the form of narrow rails or small depending foot elements. This enables fly heights of 2 microinches using a film of one micron thickness.

Therefore, the video signal can stably be recorded on the tape with its characteristic adjusted according to the discriminated tape and channel characteristics. In a playback mode, the tape and channel characteristics are discriminated by detecting the test signal recorded on the tape. Therefore, the video signal can stably be played back from the tape with its frequency characteristic adjusted according to the discriminated tape and channel characteristics.

Abstract: An ultracompact array of microlasers in which Q-switching is performed by intracavity electroabsorptive modulators, to provide an array of relatively high-power beams with good beam quality and other beam characteristics. The microlasers are optically pumped by light beams from an array of semiconductor diode lasers, each of which is individually controlled by a separate electrode. Light from the diode lasers is coupled directly into a slab of solid-state crystal material, such as Nd:YVO₄ (neodymium:yttrium vanadate), in which laser action takes place. The solid state material in part defines an array of laser cavities and an array of individually controllable Q-switching elements is integrated into the cavities, permitting Q-switching of each of the array elements. The Q-switching elements are electroabsorptive modulators that permit extremely rapid switching of the microlaser elements and provide output pulses of relatively high peak powers.
