Patent AU-1075892-A (AU)
Title: Lcd addressing system
Inventor: SCHEFFER TERRY JAMES
IPC: G09G3/36
Filed: 1992-02-05
Abstract: A method and apparatus for addressing faster responding liquid crystal panels (LCDs) so that video rate, high information content LCDs having time constants on the order of 50ms or less, are perceived as having brighter bright states and darker dark states by limiting peak voltage levels across the pixels. A first set of LCD electrodes are continuously driven with signals each comprising a train of pulses that: are periodic in time; have a common period T; are independent of the information to be displayed; and are preferably orthonormal. A plurality of column signals are generated from the collective information state of the pixels defined by the overlap with a second electrode pattern. Each column signal is proportional to the sum obtained by considering each pixel in the column and adding the voltage of that pixel's row at time t to the sum if the pixel is to be "off" and subtracting the voltage of that pixel's row at time t from the sum if the pixel is to be "on". If the row signals only switch between two voltage levels, the sum may be represented as the sum of the exclusive-or (XOR) products of the logic level of the amplitude of each row signal times the logic level of the information state of the pixel corresponding to that row. Hardware implementation comprises an external video source, a controller that receives and formats video data and timing information, a storage means for storing display data, a row signal generator, a column signal generator, and at least one LCD panel. Alternative embodiments provide gray scale shading and circuits to reduce the magnitude of the column signals, as well as the number of column voltage levels required to generate a displayed image. <IMAGE>

Patent AU-1158801-A (AU)
Title: Apparatus and method for dispensing small quantities of particles
Inventor: MACMICHAEL BRUCE
IPC: G01G15/02
Filed: 2000-11-03
Abstract: There is disclosed an apparatus and method which is capable of dispensing very small (typically less than 5 mg) quantities of particles to a high accuracy in a repeatable way and without undue wastage. Also, the need for advanced particle formulation is reduced. The apparatus comprises a closed loop control system which uses an electro-mechanical actuator to deliver impact energy to a supply of particles initially held on a sieve in a hopper. The impact energy causes a small number of particles to fall through the sieve and onto a weight measuring balance. The weight obtained is scrutinised by a processor to see if further actuations are required. In preferred embodiments, the energy of actuation is varied in accordance with the rate of dispensation calculated by the processor. Also, a correction amount can be obtained to take account of the fact that the balance can take a considerable amount of time to settle to its final value.
Patent AU-1233202-A (AU)
Title: Punching device
Inventor: WEGTER BERND
IPC: B41G7/00
Filed: 2001-10-20
Abstract: The invention pertains to a device for processing printed matter, in particular, for punching, perforating, grooving, embossing, imprinting, spot-coating or the like. In order to simplify the attachment of the processing tools required for the additional processing, the invention proposes that a carrier be attached to a rotating or flat working element 8 . The processing tools can be attached to this carrier such that they can be easily removed again. The size of the processing tools 3 that, for example, are provided with punching lines 4 can be limited to the processing area. The processing tools can be removed and also easily repositioned at any time. A magnetic attachment proved particularly advantageous. For this purpose, the carrier may be realized in the form of a magnetic foil 6.
Patent AU-1331300-A (AU)
Title: Determining the location and orientation of an indwelling medical device
Inventor: HAYNOR DAVID R
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 1999-10-28
Abstract: A device to detect the location of a plurality of magnets uses a plurality of magnetic sensors, having sensor elements arranged in a known fashion. Each sensor element senses the magnetic field strength generated by each of the plurality of magnets and provides data indicative of the direction of the magnets in a three-dimensional space. The device uses fundamental equations for electricity and magnetism that relate the measured magnetic field strength to the location and strength of the magnetic dipole for each of the plurality of magnets. The device may use an iterative process to determine the actual location and orientation of each magnet. An initial estimation of the location and orientation of each magnet results in the generation of predicted magnetic field values. The predicted magnetic field values are compared with the actual measured values provided by the magnetic sensors. Based on a difference between the predicted values and the measured values, the device estimates a new location for each of the magnets and calculates new predicted magnetic field strength values. The iteration process continues until the predicted values match the measured values within a desired degree of tolerance. At this point, the estimated location and orientation of each of the magnets matches the actual location within a predetermined degree of tolerance.

Patent AU-1535192-A (AU)
Title: Improved method and apparatus for incrementally stretching a zero strain stretch laminate web to impart elasticity thereto
IPC: A61F5/44
Filed: 1992-01-28
Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for incrementally stretching "zero strain" stretch laminate webs to impart elasticity thereto in the direction of initial stretching, at least up to the point of initial stretching. The "zero strain" stretch laminate material is formed of at least two plies of material which are either intermittently or substantially continuously secured to one another along at least a portion of their coextensive surfaces while in a substantially untensioned ("zero strain") condition. One of the plies is stretchable and elastomeric, while the second ply is elongatable, but not necessarily elastomeric. The second ply will, upon stretching of the laminate, be at least to a degree permanently elongated so that, upon release of the applied tensile forces, it will not return to its original undistorted configuration. This results in z-direction bulking of the laminate web when the applied tension is released as well as subsequent elastic extensibility in the direction of initial stretching, at least up to the point of initial stretching. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention the opposed peripheral edge portions of the laminate web to be incrementally stretched are subjected to restraint to substantially prevent inwardly directed slippage or contraction thereof in a direction parallel to the direction of stretching. This maximizes the effectiveness of the incremental web stretching operation by forcing the "zero strain" stretch laminate web to undergo the fullest possible degree of elongation during the incremental stretching operation.
Patent AU-1628800-A (AU)
Title: Systemic viral/ligand gene delivery system and gene therapy
Inventor: CHANG ESTHER H
IPC: C12N15/87
Filed: 1999-11-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to gene transfer and gene therapy technology. More specifically, the invention provides compositions and methods for targeted virus delivery. The method utilizes a method of mixing the virus, which may be a recombinant virus which will express a protein of interest or a nucleic acid of interest, with a cell-targeting ligand, e.g., transferrin. The virus and ligand are mixed without crosslinkers or agents which would covalently bond the virus and ligand. This simple mixing causes less inactivation than chemically linking the ligand to the virus and therefore results in a more active therapeutic composition than obtained by methods which utilize crosslinking agents.
