Title: Techniques for detecting heart pulses and reducing power consumption in sensors
Inventor: NORDSTROM BRAD
IPC: A61B5/024
Filed: 2005-02-25
Abstract: Low power techniques for sensing cardiac pulses in a signal from a sensor are provided. A pulse detection block senses the sensor signal and determines its signal-to-noise ratio. After comparing the signal-to-noise ratio to a threshold, the drive current of light emitting elements in the sensor is dynamically adjusted to reduce power consumption while maintaining the signal-to-noise ratio at an adequate level. The signal component of the sensor signal can be measured by identifying systolic transitions. The systolic transitions are detected using a maximum and minimum derivative averaging scheme. The moving minimum and the moving maximum are compared to the scaled sum of the moving minimum and moving maximum to identify the systolic transitions. Once the signal component has been identified, the signal component is compared to a noise component to calculate the signal-to-noise ratio.

Title: Method for encoding interlaced digital video data
Inventor: BOISSON GUILLAUME
IPC: H04N7/46
Filed: 2005-02-28
Abstract: Interlaced video can be encoded in two layers, base layer and enhancement layer. A method for optimizing the encoding of motion vectors for enhancement layer is proposed. It comprises defining various different ways to encode the motion vectors, estimate the coding costs for each way, and select the way with the lowest coding cost. The various ways to encode enhancement layer motion vectors can be combined. Either motion vectors from base layer are reused, resulting in a scaling factor and an update vector, or new motion vectors are calculated. Either forward or backward or bi-directional prediction can be used. Either one frame or multiple frames can be taken as reference. The reference frame can be from the enhancement layer, base layer or both. Either the complete motion vectors are encoded, or only the difference between the motion vector and the corresponding BL motion vector is encoded. <IMAGE>

Torque is thus transmitted between the modules by a force couple acting on the module. Also described are a method of transferring torque between adjacent trough collector modules, and a three-dimensional structural lattice configured for use in the system and method. Mechanisms for accommodating thermal expansion and contraction of the array are described. A drive system is described that imparts torque to a module near an edge of the module.
