Abstract: The spatial radiation characteristics of a sounding object are encoded by spherical harmonics. The shape is decomposed (105) into a weighted sum of spherical harmonics, comprising at least the order 0 components and such higher orders as are deemed necessary. The weights are stored individually. Each shape as defined by the individual spherical harmonics is also used to calculate an impulse response for that spherical harmonic (106). These impulse responses are of a modified form where the impulse consists of sums of equally weighted components, so each time point can only take integer values for the size of the impulse at that point. The modified impulse responses are transformed into spherical harmonic form (107), after which the apparent orientation and distance of the sounding object may be varied. Any sound may be processed by using the impulse response so generated (111).

Abstract: Methods for manufacturing thermally actuated liquid control
devices such as ink jet printheads and fluid microvalves are disclosed. Thermal
actuators for a micro-electromechanical devices are manufactured by process steps
of forming a bottom layer of a bottom material on a substrate having a flat surface
and composed of a substrate material; and removing the bottom material in a
bottom layer pattern wherein a moveable area located between opposing free
edges remains on the substrate. A deflector layer of a deflector material is formed
over the bottom layer and patterned so that the deflector material does not overlap
the free edges of the bottom layer material. A top layer of a top material is formed
over the deflector layer, the bottom layer, and the substrate and patterned so that
the top material overlaps the deflector layer material but does not completely
overlap the substrate material in the free edge area. A layer of a sacrificial
material is conformed over the top, deflector, bottom layers and substrate in
sufficient thickness to result in a planar sacrificial layer surface parallel to the flat
surface of the substrate. The sacrificial material is patterned so that sacrificial
material remains in movement areas and adjacent free edge areas. A structure
layer of a structure material is formed over the sacrificial layer and patterned to
have openings which expose the sacrificial material in movement areas. The
substrate material beneath the moveable area is removed so that the free edges of
the bottom layer are released from the substrate and the exposed sacrificial
material is removed from the movement areas and free edge areas thereby creating
a movement volume for the thermal actuator. High temperature microelectronic
fabrication processes may be used for forming the bottom, deflector and top layer
materials. The openings in the structure material may serve as nozzles for a liquid
drop emitter or as outlet ports for a microvalve. In some preferred embodiments
of the inventions, the deflector layer of the thermal actuator may be formed with
an electrically resistive material, especially titanium aluminide, the bottom layer
may be formed by oxidation of the substrate, and the sacrificial material may be
non-photoimageable polyimide.
