Abstract: The method involves comparing a first, stored reference image of the plant with a first comparison image taken in by a video camera pixel for pixel, and outputting an alarm signal, if the amount of the pixel values of the comparison image, which differ from corresponding pixel values of the reference image, is larger than a predetermined first threshold value. The first comparison image is stored as second reference image, if the amount of the pixel values of the comparison image, which differ from corresponding pixel values of the reference image, is smaller than the first threshold value, but larger than a predetermined second threshold value which is smaller than the first threshold value. The first and the second reference image are compared with a recorded comparison image in following comparison processes.

Abstract: A covering for an architectural opening, having a first layer with alternating relatively opaque stripes and relatively translucent stripes, and a second layer with alternating relatively opaque stripes and relatively translucent stripes. The first and second layers are positioned one behind the other, with the stripes substantially parallel. The first and second layers are movable relative to one another in a direction substantially perpendicular to the stripes. The covering also includes a series of parallel binder threads for attaching the first layer to the second layer. The binder threads run substantially perpendicular to the stripes, and thereby, one of the layers can be slid along the binder threads when moved relative to the other. The blind is preferred to be woven as a double-layer fabric. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for measuring component concentration in a liquid containing relatively large particles and relatively small particles. The invention may be utilized for measuring fat and casein concentrations in a dairy product, but is not limited to such use. A polarized light beam (112) is directed through a scattering cell (120) having first and second windows (122, 124) and containing a sample of the liquid. A normal to an exterior surface of the second window (124) of the scattering cell (120) is at or near Brewster's angle with respect to the light beam (112) to reduce or eliminate reflections. A first light detector, positioned at an angle of about 5 degree to about 45 degree with respect to the light beam, detects scattered light from a first component of the liquid, such as fat particles. A second light detector, positioned at an angle of about 130 degree to about 160 degree with respect to the light beam, detects scattered light from a second component of the liquid, such as casein particles. When the liquid is a dairy product, the detector signals are representative of fat and casein concentrations. Component concentrations of a dairy product may be measured without requiring the use of a chemical diluent.

Abstract: An image processing scheme that minimizes the amount of data required to process an input image signal but which maintains a guaranteed desired image quality level is disclosed. Transformation and quantification removes redundant data from the input image signal and provides a symbol set that is represented by a determined total data content. A peak data rate is determined from the total data content and any encoding overhead. The quality of image processing is determined based upon the transformation and quantification settings. Quality priority processing ensures that the available data rate is at least equal to the peak data rate. Transformation and quantification can be adjusted where a determination is made that the peak data rate exceeds the available data processing rate, or where the determined quality level does not exceed the selected quality level.

Abstract: Data intended to be displayed on a higher resolution display such as a non-interlaced display used as a computer monitor may be converted for display on a lower resolution display such as an interlaced display. The conversion may be done in a way that preserves the intended frame format while enhancing readability. For example, in one embodiment, the frames intended for non-interlaced display may be preserved in size for display in the same frame format on a lower resolution interlaced display. Local magnification may be selectively implemented for particular regions to enhance the readability of those regions. Upon selection, such local magnification may provide pixel loss and color corrections in addition to local magnification. In this way the frame format may be preserved while enhancing readability.

Abstract: Methods for preparing a biochip are provided herein wherein the biomolecular probe to be used with the biochip is alternatively bound to a hydrogel prepolymer prior to or simultaneously with polymerization of the prepolymer. In particularly preferred embodiments, a polyurethane-based hydrogel prepolymer is derivatized with an organic solvent soluble biomolecule, such as a peptide nucleic acid probe in aprotic, organic solvent. Following derivatization of the prepolymer, an aqueous solution, for example sodium bicarbonate, preferably buffered to a pH of about 7.2 to about 9.5, is added to the derivatized prepolymer solution to initiate polymerization of the hydrogel. Alternatively, a water soluble biomolecule, such as DNA or other oligonucleotide, is prepared in an aqueous solution and added to the polyurethane-based hydrogel prepolymer such that derivatization and polymerization occur, essentially, simultaneously. While the hydrogel is polymerizing, it is microspotted onto a solid substrate, preferably a silanated glass substrate, to which the hydrogel microdroplet becomes covalently bound. Most preferably the hydrogel microdroplets are at least about 30 mum thick, for example about 50 mum to about 100 mum thick. The resulting biochips are particularly useful for gene discovery, gene characterization, functional gene analysis and related studies.

Abstract: A radar signal processing method and system for detecting target objects of unknown acceleration and having low SNRs which reduces the computational burdens and provides a more efficient way of performing the operation of non-coherent integration. Radar signal processing is conducted according to a predetermined scheme in which partially processed received signal data is selectively stored and reused, reducing redundant processing. The radar system receives return signals frequency shifted from a predetermined frequency scheme by unknown amounts. The received signals are coherently integrated transforming them into frequency domain templates which are non-coherently arranged into an array matrix. The data of the frequency domain templates are processed to form presums which are stored for use in forming higher level presums and for forming acceleration bins. Once the acceleration bins have been formed, they are analyzed to detect the presence of target object return signals.

Abstract: A system and method for handshaking multiple xDSL technologies is provided. More particularly, the present invention provides a means for new xDSL technologies such as VDSL to negotiate usage of bidirectional frequencies while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy, i.e. non-VDSL modems. In an embodiment, a central office modem configured to operate using VDSL technology provides a modified signal to a remotely located modem. The modified signal provides capability indicators to the remotely located modem that indicate the central office modem is able to use the VDSL bidirectional frequencies. However, the modified signal also maintains sufficiently similar characteristics to traditional capability indicators so that it can be interpreted by legacy modems.
