Patent EP-1056296-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KATO MOTOKI
IPC: H04N19/91
Filed: 2000-05-23
Abstract: An image processing system comprising a decoder 10 and an encoder 30.
The decoder 10 comprises a section 12 for decoding a bit stream to generate
image data, generating coding parameters for each layer and generating an error
flag indicating whether the coding parameters can be effectively used. The
encoder 30 comprises a control section 41, an MB-parameter calculating section
36, an encoding section 38 and a variable-length encoding section 39. The
section 41 determines, from the error flag, whether or not the coding parameters
can be effectively used or not. The section 36 calculates coding parameters
when the coding parameters generated by the section 12 are invalid. The
sections 38 and 39 encodes the image data by using the coding parameters
generated by the section 12 when these parameters are valid, and by using the
coding parameters calculated by the section 36 when the coding parameters
generated by the section 12 are invalid.

Abstract: A CCD image sensor (14) uses sufficiently more pixels than those in an
output image. A pixel number conversion block (30) applies pixel number
reduction conversion to an image pickup signal from the CCD image sensor
(14). This signal is output as a monitor output or motion-picture recording
signal via a terminal (43). Converting the multi-pixel image signal to a reduced
image can provide an output image with improved sharpness.

Abstract: The system provides specific site data relating to the quality of response provided by named web sites. The measuring system (7) is able to receive web access requests transmitted by terminals and directed towards the network, and then re-transmit these requests to the network. The requests are also addressed to a measuring system. The responses to the requests are also received and processed, so that information concerning the quality of the response from consulted sites is monitored. The information collecting server ensures statistical processing of the received measurement data in order to estimate the quality of service from the consulted sites. The transmission of requests may pass via a management protocol layer in order to detect the specific sites which are to be evaluated. The quality information which is obtained may contain reference to the time at which access was attempted, and the time period necessary to download a document.

Abstract: An intraurethral, Foley-type catheter shaft (32)
contains a microwave antenna (74), which is surrounded
by means (64A-64B, 66A-66B) within the shaft (32) for
asymmetrically absorbing electromagnetic energy
emitted by the antenna (74) - a greater amount of
electromagnetic energy being absorbed on one side of
the shaft (32). This asymmetrical absorption effectively
focuses microwave thermal therapy toward
undesirous benign tumorous tissue growth of a prostate
anterior and lateral to the urethra, and protects
healthy tissue posterior to the urethra. Means (64A-64B,
66A-66B) also absorbs thermal energy conducted by
the periurethral tissue, which protects the urethra
while the antenna (74) is energized (Fig. 5).

Chaque filtre dichroïque refléchit la lumière d'une couleur prédéfinie différente en laissant passer la lumière d'autres couleurs. Le signal de sortie émanant de chaque détecteur indique une caractéristique différente de l'objet. Dans une configuration, chaque détecteur est équipé d'une lentille d'imagerie. Dans une autre configuration, les détecteurs sont espacés à des distances variables des réflecteurs dichroïques homologues si bien que des lentilles d'imagerie distinctes ne sont pas nécessaires.

flash, must be removed. In the method of the present invention, the cast parts are placed
on a platen of a trim press that has multi-part punches attached thereto that are configured
to self-align with the openings in the cast part and operative to evenly remove the flash.
The invention also relates to a punch that initially breaks through the flash with a
stationary punch that removes a majority of the flash inside the opening of the cast part.
Next, a moving or self-centering punch self-aligns to the opening in the cast part and
operates to remove the remaining flash. The inventive punch may also include a
mounting base for attachment of the multi-part punches to the plate or platen of the press.
