Title: Dynamic selection of field/frame-based mpeg video encoding
Inventor: KLIVINGTON JASON
IPC: H04N19/625
Filed: 2003-01-06
Granted: 2014-11-25
Abstract: A discrete cosine transform (DCT) level enhancement to Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) video encoding is described that results in a more concise bitstream than MPEG encoding without the enhancement. One degree of freedom provided by the MPEG encoding specifications is whether a frame- or field-based DCT operation will be used. In the field-based DCT operations, luminance sub-blocks are built from even or odd rows of the original image, which correspond to the top and bottom fields in field-based video. This allows the encoder to take advantage of the higher correlation between rows for the same field, especially in field-based video with a high level of motion. In one embodiment, both field-and frame-based DCT operations are performed and the results are quantized. On a macroblock-by-macroblock basis, the option that results in the fewest non-zero coefficients is selected and those coefficients are used for run-time encoding.

Title: Projectile non penetrant
Inventor: BRYDGES-PRICE RICHARD IAN
IPC: F42B10/48
Filed: 2001-07-24
Granted: 2009-07-07
Abstract: Projectile non mortel ou projectile servant à transmettre une substance (éventuellement) et possédant un boîtier tubulaire (1) entourant un compartiment (2) servant à contenir cette substance. Ce compartiment (2) supporte de façon coaxiale un tube creux (5) formant une saillie vers l'avant à l'intérieur d'une coiffe ogivale (8). Une membrane gonflable (7) est placée à l'intérieur de la coiffe (8). Lors d'un impact sur une cible, la coiffe est déplacée et permet à une petite quantité de substance provenant du compartiment (2) de fuir à travers une ouverture (6), ce qui permet au piston (4) de se déplacer vers l'avant et de découvrir des orifices (16). Cet effet permet au gaz sous pression de passer à travers ces orifices (16) et de conduits afin de gonfler la membrane (7). Ce piston peut également se déplacer librement vers l'avant afin de décharger la substance à travers l'aiguille (5). De ce fait, le sac (7) se dilate rapidement et empêche toute pénétration excessive, tout en diffusant l'énergie de l'impact sur une zone étendue. La conception de ce projectile évite qu'une charge soit contenue à l'intérieur du projectile lui-même.

Title: Hybrid air boost vehicle and method for making same
Inventor: LEBAN MICHAEL F
IPC: B64C21/06
Filed: 2002-06-13
Granted: 2011-02-15
Abstract: A hybrid air boost vehicle makes use of the porous panels (1) and suction devices (5) of a vehicle aerodynamic drag reduction system, and makes use of the air consumed by such a system, to provide the energy and air to power a land or water based ground effects vehicle. Energy and air consumed by the suction system, and normally wasted, is recycled by providing an air cushion to partially support the vehicle. The entire hybrid air boost vehicle system is more efficient than either a drag reduction system or a ground effects vehicle alone, and the benefits of both are realized, as well as benefits unique to the hybrid vehicle.

Title: Method for preparing gels
Inventor: MASARO LAURENT
IPC: A61K9/107
Filed: 2002-11-14
Granted: 2012-09-11
Abstract: The formation of a cream and gel is described using a biopolymer, such as a polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), a polylactide (PLA), a polylactideglycolide (PLGA) and a polyglycoside (PGA), or a derivative thereof, in a latex form with the addition of a binder, which is generally an amphiphilic chemical entity. An hydrophobic domain of the amphiphilic chemical entity interacts with at least one biopolymer forming a water soluble complex, while the hydrophilic domain of the amphiphilic chemical entity maintains the soluble complex in suspension in an aqueous solution, which after proper heating becomes a gel or a cream.  As a result, a versatile gel or cream is created with different compositions and textures that are obtained based on the nature of the binder used and the ratio of biopolymers and binder(s).
