Abstract: Every time the cumulative number of revolutions of a spindle rotating motor reaches a cumulative number of revolutions set in a data table, a CPU reads out, from a data memory section, moving positions of a workpiece and tool at the reached cumulative number of revolutions and the next cumulative number of revolutions, and a spindle rotational speed instruction value at the reached cumulative number of revolutions. The CPU sets the reached cumulative number of revolutions as a start point and the next cumulative number of revolutions as an end point, and divides the interval between the start and end points at predetermined timings. The CPU determines moving positions of the workpiece and tool at divided timings on the basis of the readout moving positions of the workpiece and tool. The CPU outputs the spindle rotational speed instruction value as a spindle rotational speed instruction signal to a reference spindle rotational speed setting circuit to control the rotational speed of the spindle rotating motor.

an array of pixel elements is fabricated in an integrated circuit (302). Each of the pixel
elements outputing a digital signal comprises a photodetector integrated with an analog to
digital converter. An array of threshold memory cells (304), each corresponding to one of
the pixel elements, is also provided. An array of time memory cells (308), each
corresponding to one of the pixel elements, establishes a different sampling time for each of
the pixel elements for each of multiple samples. An array of data memory elements (310),
each coupled to one of the pixel elements, is also provided. The data memory elements
(310) are also fabricated in the integrated circuit to receive a value from a corresponding one
of the pixel elements when the content in a corresponding one of the threshold memory cells
permits. As a result, multiple samples may be collected for an image to thereby extend the
dynamic range of a photodetector.

only receives the advertisement. The advertisement is preferably automatically
received and played on the personal device. In the interactive or two-way mode,
the personal device not only receives the advertisement, the personal device is
able to interact with or respond to the advertisement. In the interactive mode the
personal device is thus operative to send information back to the business.
