Abstract: This invention provides a manual input device by which the operation feeling (tactile sensation) provided to the user manipulating its knob can be changed as appropriate, and also a car-mounted apparatus controller which uses this type of manual input device. A manual input device comprises: a housing; a control shaft which is rotatably supported by the housing; a knob fixed to one end of the control shaft; and feeling providing means, actuator and first and second position sensors which are all housed in the housing. The feeling providing means comprises: plural discs fixed to the control shaft, bearing first to third feeling patterns on their circumferential surfaces; and a ball holder which works in conjunction with the discs to provide an operation feeling to the knob. The actuator is driven to move up or down the ball holder to select the feeling pattern to be elastically forced to contact the ball to change an operation feeling as the user rotates the knob. The car-mounted apparatus controller incorporates this type of manual input device as means for functional control of car-mounted electric apparatuses.

Inventor: LAROIA RAJIV
IPC: H04J11/00

Abstract: Uplink traffic channel allocation is realized by utilizing a dedicated control
channel in which a prescribed portion of the control channel resource, for example,
frequency, time slot or the like, is reserved for transporting the uplink traffic channel
requests. Both the base station and the particular mobile unit know the prescribed
portion of the control channel resource a priori. Consequently, when the particular
mobile unit transmits an uplink traffic channel request via the prescribed portion of the
control channel resource there is no need for adding any control header information,
thereby minimizing overhead. Furthermore, the length of the uplink traffic channel
requests can be optimally chosen without constraints imposed by other control
message schemes. Reduced overhead coupled with the prescribed portion of the
control channel resource arriving quite frequently reduces latency in the particular
mobile unit acquiring an uplink traffic channel. In one example, delivery of adequate
uplink traffic channel request information to the base station, while minimizing the
adverse impact of losing requests, is ensured by persistently transmitting the requests.
Specifically, after the mobile unit transmits a first request, it transmits a second or
even a third request instead of waiting to receive a response message from the base
station and/or waiting for a timer to time out. By the mobile unit using such a
persistent request transmission scheme, the base station can readily determine the true
value of the received request by eliminating the transmission loop delay effect, thereby
allowing a sensible assignment decision to be made.

Abstract: The pressing method includes the first step of displacing a sub-piston
(10, 15) provided within a sub-cylinder (4, 13) from its initial position
to press working fluid (1) such that the working fluid (1) is introduced via a
check valve (5) into a main cylinder (6) to displace a main piston (18)
provided therein, and the second step of causing the sub-piston (10, 15) to
return to the initial position such that the working fluid (1) is supplied to the
sub-cylinder (4, 13). The first and second steps are repeated successively
until the working fluid (1) in the main cylinder (6) attains a prescribed
pressure level. With this method, variation in the way of pressing an object
is alleviated, contamination due to the working fluid is prevented, and
downsizing of the pressing mechanism is enabled.

Abstract: An initial combination HMM 16 is generated from a voice HMM
10 having multiplicative distortions and an initial noise HMM
of additive noise, and at the same time, a Jacobian matrix J
is calculated by a Jacobian matrix calculating section 19. Noise
variation Namh (cep), in which an estimated value Ha^ (cep) of
the multiplicative distortions that are obtained from voice that
is actually uttered, additive noise Na (cep) that is obtained
in a non-utterance period, and additive noise Nm (cep) of the
initial noise HMM 17 are combined, is multiplied by a Jacobian
matrix, wherein the result of the multiplication and initial
combination HMM 16 are combined, and an adaptive HMM 26 is
generated. Thereby, an adaptive HMM 26 that is matched to the
observation value series RNah (cep) generated from actual
utterance voice can be generated in advance. When performing
voice recognition by collating the observation value series
RNah (cep) with adaptive HMM 26, influences due to the
multiplicative distortions and additive distortions are
counterbalanced, wherein an effect that is equivalent to a case
where voice recognition is carried out with clean voice can be
obtained, and a robust voice recognition system can be achieved.

Abstract: A multi-beam electron gun (31) of the invention emits two electron beams (1a,1b)
for each of the three colors, red, green and blue, from the top and the bottom. A single
composite screen is formed as a whole at a display screen (14) by the electron beam group
(Ia) on the top and the electron beam group (1b) on the bottom. Image distortion in all of
the scanning screens formed by the electron beam group on the top and the electron beam
group on the bottom are corrected by directly correcting the image data by correcting
means (55-65) based on correction data stored in a storing means (60). At this time,
correction of the image data is separately performed on the data for each electron beam,
and is performed by changing the arrangement of pixels in terms of space and time.
Thereby, image display using the multi-beam electron gun can be excellently performed.

Abstract: An orthogonal code generating circuit 10 is arranged by a counter circuit
unit 12, a combination circuit unit 14 of orthogonal codes, and a control circuit
unit 16. Furthermore, the combination circuit unit 14 is constructed of an
AND gate 14a and an exclusive-OR gate 14b. The control circuit unit 16
outputs a decode output in response to a set code designation signal CNo.
When a code generation starting signal ST is inputted, a counter circuit 12
starts to output a counter output. Both the decode output and the counter
output are entered to the combination circuit unit 14 which AND-gates the
corresponding output bits with each other, and thereafter, exclusively OR-gates
the AND-gated outputs, and then outputs the exclusively OR-gated signal as
serial data of an orthogonal code. As a consequence, since the conventional
ROM unit for storing thereinto the orthogonal codes can be omitted, the circuit
scale of the orthogonal code generating circuit 10 can be reduced.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) for blood pressure measurement capable of
heart function assessment for readily putting on a living subject,
comprising an inflatable cuff including a pressure-pulse-wave
sensor (28), which is combined with the cuff at an upper-stream
side end of the cuff, when wrapped around an upper-arm portion
(14), so as to detect, at the upper-stream side than a blood-flow
stopped position, the pressure-pulse-wave, which is of the same
waveform as an aorta waveform, while blood-flow is stopped, and
an ejection time calculating means (a heart function parameter
calculating means) (100), by which an ejection time ET can be
calculated as a time difference from a rising-point to a dicrotic
notch of the pressure-pulse waveform for heart function
assessment. Since a blood pressure BP also can be measured
with the cuff (12), all the putting on the living subject, that is
needed to measure the blood pressure and heart-function is to
put on the cuff (12), which is combined with the pressure-pulse
wave sensor (28), and to wrap the cuff around the upper-arm
portion (14), therefore, putting-on becomes more simple and
easier for measuring a heart function parameter and a blood
pressure.
