Abstract: A graphics system comprises pixel calculation units and a sample buffer which stores a two-dimensional field of samples. Each pixel calculation unit selects positions in the two-dimensional field at which pixel values (e.g. red, green, blue) are computed. The pixel computation positions are selected to compensate for image distortions introduced by a display device and/or display surface. Non-uniformities in a viewer's perceived intensity distribution from a display surface (e.g. hot spots, overlap brightness) are corrected by appropriately scaling pixel values prior to transmission to display devices. Two or more sets of pixel calculation units driving two or more display devices adjust their respective pixel computation centers to align the edges of two or more displayed images. Physical barriers prevent light spillage at the interface between any two of the display images. Separate pixel computation positions may be used for distinct colors to compensate for color distortions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing functional objects (15, 10) that have a high-grade surface. The invention also relates to a functional object that is produced according to said method. The aim of the invention is to simplify the production method, whereby the surface of the objects should be finished in a cost-effective manner while still obtaining a high-quality effect for e.g. an advertising medium or an object of art. To begin with, the functional object has, at least in areas, at least one glazed or milky dull surface (13) that serves as a characteristic surface. This characteristic surface (13) is, essentially throughout or in an all-over manner, of the same character inside the area (15a, 20b), in which a decoration or marking (25, 20) should ensue. The decoration or marking (20, 25; 20a) is made by applying a fluid to the characteristic surface (13) in order to smoothen the surface into the shape or form (20a) of the decoration or marking.

Abstract: Security seals (1) are widely used to demonstrate the integrity of a closed container, truck, roll pallet, cage or box. Typically such security seals (21) are made from plastics material and comprise a strap (2) with a plug (5) at one end and a socket (4) at the other end. The socket includes a one-way lock so that when the security seal (1) is threaded through a locking point and the plug (5) inserted into the socket (4) the plus is locked irremovably into the socket. The only way that the security seal can subsequently be removed is by destroying it. Such a security seal (1) includes a recognisable sequence of indicia (20) extending along substantially the whole length of the strap portion (2). The presence of the recognisable sequence of indicia (20) along the length of the strap (2) make it almost impossible to cut such a strap (2) and reconnect the cut ends without disrupting the sequence of indicia (20) so that it is immediately evident that the security seal (1) has been tampered with. <IMAGE>
