Abstract: A microprocessor obtains a vehicle travelled distance
by multiplying the number of pulses by a distance factor R, the
number of pulses having been outputted from a vehicle speed
sensor and having been counted by a counter, In addition,
the microprocessor estimates a current position on a road
according to map data read out from a CD-ROM via a driver, 
   measured data from an angular velocity sensor and a
direction sensor via A/D converters, and the
obtained vehicle travelled distance. The road direction on the
estimated current position and the vehicle direction obtained
from the measured data of the angular velocity sensor and
the direction sensor, are compared, and in accordance with
the angular difference therebetween and the information whether
the driving road is a left turn or a right turn, it is determined
whether the estimated current position is ahead or behind the
actual position. With the result, the distance factor R can be
dynamically modified. Therefore, it is possible to adequately
correct the distance factor which is used for obtaining a
travelled distance.

Abstract: Herein is disclosed a method for modifying raw material
milk, wherein a reducing agent such as a thiol compound is added
when transglutaminase is caused to act upon raw material milk
for a dairy product, whereby the reactivity of the
transglutaminase to the raw material milk such as raw cow milk,
can be improved and the milk protein can, in turn, be modified
effectively. From the thus-modified raw material milk can be
produced dairy products such as yogurt, cheese and powdered
milk improved in physical properties, mouthfeel or texture.

Abstract: A photofinishing apparatus (10) is designed such that full bleed
durable prints are produced with a high productivity and low waste generation
process. The photofinishing apparatus in this case includes a printer (18) and a
finisher or post-print treatment processor (20). The printer is designed to produce
media segments with multiple images of various formats. This media segment is
then transported to the post-print treatment processor. The post-print treatment
processor includes a dryer station (50), a durability station (52), a two-axis
cutting station (54), and a print sorting station (56). The dryer performs the
function of drying the media segment. The durability station performs the
function of applying and or fixing durability material on the media segments. The
two-axis cutting station includes slitting and chopping stations that perform the
required two-axis cutting that produces the full bleed prints. Finally, the print
sorting station performs the sorting of the prints such that the full bleed durable
prints can be returned to customers. These four stations utilize a multitude of
mechanisms to perform their functions including dryers, fuse rollers, slitters and
choppers and cutters. There also is a multitude of transport mechanisms that are
utilized to move the media in its varied forms throughout the stations. These
mechanisms include platens, conical urge rollers, edge guides, numerous metering
roller sets, slitters, choppers and numerous control sensors.

Abstract: An on-board tester (referred to as a "test fixture") for testing integrated circuit chips,
particularly ball grid array (BGA) chips. The test fixture of the present invention eliminates many
of the problems associated with presently available test fixtures, particularly the lack of control in
mounting the chips to the test fixture, and the unpredictable testing results. The present test fixture
has an upper assembly and a lower assembly. A circuit board containing the BGA chip to be tested
is mounted between the upper and lower assemblies. The lower assembly has guide pins extending
toward the upper assembly which allows any circuit board having alignment holes that match the
configuration of the guide pins to be mounted to the lower assembly. Moreover, the present test
fixture has a unique latching mechanism which uses rotational movement to latch and unlatch the
test fixture. Particularly, a collet assembly is used which allows rotation of a shaft to compress other
plates in the assembly so that the upper and lower assembly are properly secured together.
Rotational movement is also used to secure the test pins of the test fixture to the BGA chip. The test
fixture has a knob that is rotated to linearly draw the upper and lower assemblies together until the
probe test pins have an effective electrical connection with the BGA chip.

Abstract: A testing apparatus and method consisting of multiple measurement modules
(10) having one or more circuit assembly boards (17,18), two data/power connectors
(14), and a target connector (16). The circuit assembly boards include electronics (19)
for accessing and storing selected signal data emanating from a connected target system
(56). Signal data is accessed from 1 - 128 target signal sources and sampled through two
separate analog to digital channels (43). An on-board microcontroller (31) controls
signal selection and data sampling rates and also provides for transfer of recorded data
over a USB bus to a host computing device (59,61). Using a proper testing application
loaded onto the host computing device, each module (10) can be commanded to access
and store representative data from a number of signal sources at each target system. (56)
Each module is connected to other modules and a host computing device to create a
complete self-powered test access environment (58). With a proper testing application
loaded on the host computing device, testing data may be acquired and analyzed for any
selected target component system. The interconnectivity of the system as well as the
data acquisition capability for each measurement module make diagnosing electronic
component failures in an armored vehicle, such as a tank, much easier than prior manual
fault isolation procedures.
