Abstract: The sheet of glass to be examined (1) is placed horizontally in a support frame (2) and is illuminated uniformly with white light from a source (4). The light falling on the glass plate is reflected on to a screen (6). The image appearing on this screen is captured by one or several colour video cameras (12-15). For each primary colour, and for each point on the image the luminance is determined, and the relative colour reaction for each colour is calculated by dividing the luminance value for one colour by the sum of the luminance values for that point. These relative colour fractions are then compared with predetermined reference values.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of making discrete particles by subjecting an organic feedstock to liquiflash conditions whereby the feedstock is transformed instantaneously from solid to liquiform to solid. Liquiform is a transient condition wherein the feedstock has substantially unimpeded internal flow. Shear force is imparted to the liquiform feedstock in an amount sufficient to separate tiny masses of feedstock. The tiny masses solidify as discretized particles. The present invention also includes unique products resulting from the process, e.g., a monodispersed microsphere product and coated particles prepared therefrom.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method for processing short branch instructions for branches between program modules into which a computer program is divided. The method comprises the following steps. It is verified that a branching location for a short branch instruction is outside a branch-enable bound that a branch can be made in accordance with the short branch instruction, wherein the branching location is a location to which the branch is about to be made in accordance with the short branch instruction. Any empty region is searched in the branch-enable bound. A long branch instruction is generated on the empty region. The branching location is amended into an address to which the branch will be made in accordance with the long branch instruction.

Abstract: The volume of space, in range, azimuth and elevation, over which a conventional Tactical Ballistic Missile (TBM) early warning radar is required to search for incoming missiles is very large. This placed very heavy demands on the radar designer, resulting in large, very high power, low mobility radars, with subsequent vulnerability to ARMs and other defence suppression systems. This invention proposes an alternative approach to a TBM early earning radar which considerably reduces both the design and vulnerability problem, and permits effective TBM early warning radars to be constructed using current technology. This is achieved by moving the radar (1) beyond the front edge of the defended area (2). The increased elevation scan requirements are more than compensated for by a range-adaptive scanning technique which reduces the volume search time by more than 50% compared with a more conventional arrangement.

Abstract: Apparatus for processing mixed video and graphic signals for display on a television receiver includes a Graphics Memory (38) and a Memory Controller and Sprite State Machine (42). The Graphics Memory includes a Sprite List table (90), a Sprite Data table (92), and other optional tables (94, 96). The Sprite List table lists one or more graphics in a predetermined sequence for display on the television receiver, and stores general information related to the graphics within control words in each listing. The Sprite Data table stores pixel data for horizontal lines of each of the graphics which are accessed by a control word in each of the graphic listings in the Sprite List table. An optional Line Control table (94) contains control words that are accessed via the graphic listing for providing independent controls for each of the horizontal lines obtained from the Sprite Data table to produce predetermined special effects. An optional Span List table (96) is used to determine which of the graphic listings occur on a horizontal line to cause an accessing of only those occurring graphic listings for assembling pixel data for that horizontal line. The Memory Controller and Sprite State Machine accesses the tables of the Graphics Memory in a predetermined sequence in order to assemble and display each of the graphics and their special effects at predetermined locations in the horizontal lines on a screen of the television receiver. The Memory Controller and Sprite State Machine also uses field enable controls from the Sprite List Table for assembling one graphic on lines of a first field and a second graphic on lines of a second field.

Abstract: The invention relates to a radio based structure for short range communication which makes possible local network access for capacity demanding broadband services in a cellular short range system such as for instance DECT. This is effected by an integration of two separate cellular systems for short range communication, where one of the systems consists of DECT and the other system consists of LMDS. The integration is essentially effected by combining DECT and LMDS so that LMDS is used for radio transmission between DECT-PP and DECT-RFP via uplink and downlink, and for transmission of broadband information in downlink. DECT is used for speech, narrow band and medium band data communication, and for transmission of authorization/encryption information so that only authorized subscriber can utilize the information which is transmitted via DECT and LMDS.
