Filed: 1999-10-05
Abstract: An image capture apparatus comprises a computer device, for example a
personal computer, and a scanning device, for example a flat bed scanning
device, configured to operate a two-scan image capture process followed by data
processing for combining first and second images obtained in said two-step
image capture process, and a three-step image capture process followed by data
processing for combining first, second and third images obtained in said three-step
image capture process for obtaining a combined full image of a document.
Algorithms are disclosed for stitching first and second images together to obtain a
combined image data. In both the two-step and three-step image capture
operation and subsequent data processing, a document having a size larger than
an image capture area of said image capture device can be combined to produce
a combined image data representing the whole of the document in a fully
automated manner without the need for user intervention in matching images.

Abstract: A generalized mixed twisted nematic / birefringent effect mode is presented for
reflective liquid crystal displays with only one polarizer. This new MTB mode
encompasses all previously published reflective nematic liquid crystal display modes
and is clearly shown on the parameter space diagrams. The invention of how to
obtain operating conditions of this generalized mixed mode display is discussed. For
any given angle between the polarizer and the input director of the liquid crystal cell,
a unique range of values of the twist angle and the retardation dΔn for efficient
reflection and low dispersion is defined.

Abstract: A mixing method and mixer structure provide a circuit topology suitable for use in radio receivers, transmitters, tuners, instrumentation systems, telemetry systems, and other systems and devices performing frequency conversion in either homodyne or heterodyne implementations. The inventive mixer may be used for wireless communication devices including radios, cellular telephones, and telemetry systems whether land, sea, airborne, or space based, and whether fixed or mobile. The mixer provides superior intermodulation and harmonic distortion suppression and features excellent conversion loss, noise figure, port match, and port isolation as a result of its circuit topology. The mixer device circuit combines the advantages of series mixing FETs, a triple balanced design using a balanced passive reflection transformer, a precise local oscillator phase splitter, and square wave gate drive having high slew rate signal characteristics to achieve high levels of performance. It is power conservative and offers the advantage of long battery life in portable devices such as portable radios and cellular telephones as it requires only a modest amount of DC and local oscillator drive power, and is useful for operation over at least a multi-decade bandwidth.

Title: segmented pictures decoding method and device
Inventor: MARQUES FERRAN
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 1999-09-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of decoding coded signals corresponding to successive segmented pictures, or partitions, divided into homogeneous regions to which specific labels are respectively associated. The partitions have been previously coded by means of a coding method comprising, for each partition to be coded, the steps of translating the picture of labels into a chain in which the elements are defined by means of their movements through successive basic cells, tracking inside each cell each contour from its initial point to its end by storing symbols corresponding both to the elements of said cell and to priorities between them, and repeating these two steps up to the end of each contour of the partition and coding the information corresponding to the chains of movements. The corresponding decoding method then comprises (A) a forward decoding step, provided for decoding within said chain symbols all contour points that are sure in the decoded partition and detecting local inconsistencies, and (B) a backward decoding step, provided for tracking in a backwards manner the decoded contours and solving said inconsistencies on the basis of marks introduced during the detection of these inconsistencies.

Title: Blind fastener with high strength blind head and high clamp and high shear load resistance
Inventor: HAZELMAN DAVID J
IPC: F16B13/12

Abstract: A blind fastener with a pin having a pin shank which extends through a cylindrical main sleeve and expansion sleeve whereby it can be gripped and pulled by an installation tool with the pin having an enlarged pin head at the blind end of the pin shank. The expansion sleeve is located between the pin head and the inner end of the main sleeve and is adapted to move into the inner or blind end of the main sleeve to form a first tulip shaped blind head for clamping workpieces together in response to a relative axial force applied between the sleeves and pin by engagement of the pin head with the expansion sleeve. As the axial force is increased the pin head is moved into the expansion sleeve to form a second tulip head to further clamp the workpieces and to secure the pin, main sleeve and expansion sleeve together at that end and is moved closely adjacent the workpiece surface at the blind side to form a high strength blind head.

Abstract: The electric lamp has a ceramic lamp vessel (1) having a filling of rare gas and metal halide. Current conductors (2, 3) which support electrodes (4, 5) inside the discharge vessel (1) enter the discharge vessel (1) in a gastight manner through a ceramic sealing compound (6). At least one of the current conductors (2, 3) has inside the lamp vessel (1) a first, halogen-resistant part (21, 31) which is selected from tungsten silicide, molybdenum aluminide, molybdenum boride, pentamolybdenum trisilicide and combinations of at least two of these intermetallic compounds. These compounds have a coefficient of thermal expansion which corresponds to that of the discharge vessel (1). It is thereby prevented that the discharge vessel starts leaking if the ceramic sealing compound (6) extends beyond the first part (21, 31). As a result of their coefficient of thermal expansion, the intermetallic compounds may constitute the second part (22, 32) of the current conductors (2, 3) as well, which part (22, 32) is surrounded by the ceramic sealing compound (6) in a gastight manner.
