Abstract: In an anti-fog element comprising a substrate, a photocatalyzer film
formed on the surface of the substrate, and a porous hydrophilic film formed
thereon, and a process for forming the same, a titanium peroxide solution
obtainable by causing a titanium peroxide gel (orthotitanic acid) to act with
hydrogen peroxide is used as a material for the photocatalyzer film. When
the titanium peroxide solution is used to form a photocatalyzer film, an
anatase type titanium dioxide film can be obtained at a low temperature, for
example, of 200°C. Consequently, in the course of the fabrication of the
anti-fog element, any alkaline substance is difficult to be dispersed into the
photocatalyzer film and, thus, even if a soda lime glass is used as the
substrate, no film for preventing the alkali dispersion is required. For this
reason, no photocatalytic property is impaired even if no film for preventing
the alkali dispersion is provided. Due to the treatment at a low temperature,
it is difficult for the reflecting film to be oxidized, not impairing the
reflecting ratio. What is more, the treatment at a low temperature saves
energy and reduces the cost, leading decreased cost.

Abstract: Process for dosing and mixing particles, e.g. granules, comprises feeding main particles (3) in a main particle stream into a side particle stream, in a ratio that can be adjusted. The side stream particles (5) are fed to a transport unit (8) via an adjustable supply unit (7), and the transport unit moves them to an optical unit where they are counted, and then on to the main stream.  The counting stage enables the transport speed and/or the supply unit adjustment to be altered, so the number of particles added is always the same. The transport unit has a vibration member, and the optical detector is located at the end of the unit. The combined main and side particles are fed directly to a machine, e.g. an injection molding machine. The transport unit is in the form of a vibrating gulley, band or worm member.

Abstract: In the MPEG-4 standard ISO/IEC 14496:2001 several audio objects
that can be coded with different MPEG-4 format coding
types can together form a composed audio system representing
a single soundtrack from the several audio substreams. In a
receiver the multiple audio objects are decoded separately,
but not directly played back to a listener. Instead, transmitted
instructions for mixdown are used to prepare a single
soundtrack. Mixdown conflicts can occur in case the audio
signals to be combined have different channel numbers or
configurations. According to the invention an additional audio
channel configuration node is used that tags the correct
channel configuration information items to the decoded audio
data streams to be presented. The invention enables the content
provider to set the channel configuration in such a way
that the presenter at receiver side can produce a correct
channel presentation under all circumstances. An escape code
value in the channel configuration data facilitates correct
handling of not yet defined channel combinations.
