Inventor: LAUER HUGH C
IPC: G06T15/40
Filed: 1998-04-27
Abstract: Apparatus is provided to enable real-time volume rendering
on a personal computer or a desktop computer
in which a technique involving blocking of voxel data
organizes the data so that all voxels within a block
are stored at consecutive memory addresses within a
single memory model, making possible fetching an
entire block or data in a burst rather than one voxel
at a time. This permits utilization of DRAM memory
modules which provide high capacity and low cost with
substantial space savings. Additional techniques
including sectioning reduces the amount of intermediate
storage in a processing pipeline to an acceptable
level for semiconductor implementation. A multiplexing
technique takes advantage of blocking to
reduce the amount of data needed to be transmitted
per block, thus reducing the number of pins and the
rates at which data must be transmitted across the
pins connecting adjacent processing modules with each
other. A mini-blocking technique saves the time
needed to process sections by avoiding reading entire
blocks for voxels near the boundary between a section
and previously processed sections.

Abstract: To keep operation of a control circuit for a line sensor
reading operation always the same regardless of variations and
differences between readers, simplify the control circuit, and
avoid complicated processes such as setting various software
process parameters for canceling differences between the
readers. A line shaped, two-wavelength transmitting LED array
and a line shaped light emitting/photodetecting part comprising
a photodetector array and a two-wavelength reflecting LED array
are disposed in opposition each other such that a read medium
passes between the two-wavelength LED array for transmitting
light and the light emitting/photodetecting part, and the
two-wavelength LED array for tranmitting light and two-wavelength
LED array for reflecting light emit light of
different wavelengths. An storage time control circuit is
disposed in a signal processing circuit of the photodetector
array; and a control means is provided for controlling light
emission with the two-wavelength transmitting LED array and
two-wavelength reflecting LED array, controlling reading with
the photodetectors, and controlling the storage time control
circuit. Variations in wavelength detection sensitivity and
light quantity with different scanned media are adjusted by
means of the storage time of the storage time control circuit.

Abstract: Solving Means: A rear cushion unit (28) has an upper end
mounted on a swing arm (24) and a lower end coupled to
pivot brackets (13) in a position below a pivot shaft (25)
The pivot brackets (13) are independent of each other
without being coupled to each other. 
     Advantages: A fuel tank, electric parts, or other parts,
for example, can be clustered between the left and right
brackets (13) near the center of gravity of the vehicle body,
and those parts can be disposed near the center of
gravity of the vehicle body. Therefore, the maneuvering
capability of racing and off-road vehicles incorporating
such an arrangement can be increased. The vehicle frame
can be simplified in structure and can be manufactured at
a reduced cost. When the vehicle is assembled, the
distance that the worker needs to move can be reduced,
and hence the productivity of the vehicle is increased.
The size of the vehicle is reduced because of the
clustered arrangement of the parts.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and apparatus for embedding hidden data in an audio
signal. An audio signal is received in a base domain and then transformed into a non-base
domain, such as cepstrum domain or LP residue domain. The statistical mean manipulation is
employed on selected transform coefficients to embed hidden data. The introduced distortion is
controlled by psychoacoustic model to ensure the imperceptibility of the embedded hidden data.
Scrambling techniques can be plugged in to further increase the security of the data hiding
system. The present new audio data hiding scheme provides transparent audio quality, sufficient
embedding capacity, and high survivability over a wide range of common signal processing
attacks.
