Abstract: A system (200) for enhancing the television presentation of an object at a sporting event includes a sensor (210, 212, 214, 216), which determines the location of the object. Based on the location of the object and the field of view of a broadcast camera (201, 202, 203, 204), a processor (302) determines the position of the object in the video frame of the broadcast camera. Once knowing where the object is positioned within the video frame, the television signal can be edited or augmented to enhance the presentation of the object.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and program product for increasing the performance of a client/server system having a client application resident on a first computer and communicating with a server application resident on a second computer remote from the first computer. The client application and the server application utilize a client/server independent communication protocol for communication between the client and the server and at least one segment of the communication between the client application in the first computer and the server application in the second computer occurs over an external communication link. The method, apparatus and program product intercept communications in the client/server independent communication protocol originated by the remote client prior to transmission of the communications on the external communication link and convert the communication originated by the client to a second client/server specific communication protocol. The converted communication is transmitted over the external communication link and received from the communication transmitted over the external communication link. The communication received over the external communication link is converted from the client server specific communication protocol to the client/server independent communication protocol and the communication originated by the remote client is provided to the server in the client/server independent communication protocol. Differencing, caching or protocol reduction techniques increase performance over the external communication link. The applications may be a web browser and a web server and may communicate over a wireless communication link.

Abstract: A pump having a center section including an actuator housing and an air valve is arranged with air chambers to either side of the actuator housing. Diaphragms are associated with the air chambers to create enclosed cavities for alternately pressurizing and venting the diaphragms. The actuator uses a pilot shifting shaft which is shuttled by movement of the diaphragms. An air valve is controlled by the shuttle shifting shaft to control flow to and from the air chambers. The passageways from the air chambers to exhaust find the passage to the outlet being at least as restrictive to air flow as the remainder of the passageways so as to prevent major pressure decreases within the actuator body. A diffuser includes a thin space between two surfaces into which the exhaust is directed. One of the surfaces is associated with a porous block of material. Exhausting air is distributed within the space and then passed through the porous block of material. The cylindrical orifice through which flow radially passes is roughly the same cross section as the restricted exhaust passageway. The air valve includes a cylinder closed at one end with an end cap positioned at the other end. The end cap is arranged with a plug that fits within the cylinder so as to seal without close tolerance on axial positioning. Bolts retaining the air valve and the actuator housing also retain the end cap as well.

Abstract: A feedback control system which includes a disturbance estimator and controller which takes account of and corrects for non-linear disturbances. A simple state model representative of the controlled plant is provided. A plant controller responds to a command signal and a process feedback signal for producing a controller output. The controller output drives both the plant and the state model. A sensed signal representing a state of the plant is compared with a corresponding output state of the model to produce an error signal which is representative of disturbances applied to the system. The disturbance estimator and controller responds to the error signal to produce a disturbance control output which is adapted to compensate for the non-linear disturbance. In a preferred embodiment the plant is an actuator and the non-linear disturbances are friction related. The disturbance control output in the preferred embodiment has an initial constant magnitude summed with an increasing ramp, and the disturbance estimator senses polarity reversals in the error signal to reverse the polarity of at least the constant component of the disturbance output. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for pinpointing an interruption in a link for transmitting digital signals between a first station and a second station on the basis of the times of occurrence of signal changes on the link. In accordance with the invention, the method is characterised by generating signal changes after the link has been restored. Preferably, the time of restoration is determined on the basis of data signals received, and a detection signal is fed to the link after the determination of the time of restoration. On the basis of the difference in time of observing restoration and of receiving a detection signal, the location of the interruption is determined. For this purpose, the length of the link need not be known.

Abstract: A method for dissociating metal-ligand complexes in a supercritical fluid by treating the metal-ligand complex with heat and/or reducing or oxidizing agents is described. Once the metal-ligand complex is dissociated, the resulting metal and/or metal oxide form fine particles of substantially uniform size. In preferred embodiments, the solvent is supercritical carbon dioxide and the ligand is a  beta -diketone such as hexafluoroacetylacetone or dibutyldiacetate. In other preferred embodiments, the metals in the metal-ligand complex are copper, silver, gold, tungsten, titanium, tantalum, tin, or mixtures thereof. In preferred embodiments, the reducing agent is hydrogen. The method provides an efficient process for dissociating metal-ligand complexes and produces easily-collected metal particles free from hydrocarbon solvent impurities. The ligand and the supercritical fluid can be regenerated to provide an economic, efficient process.

Abstract: In the production of grain oriented electrical steel sheet, controlling the condition of thin slab continuous casting results in advantageous solidification structures and precipitates. The steel has an initial content of carbon less than 300 ppm and an initial content of acid-soluble aluminum higher than that normally used for said type of steel. During the final processing steps, the annealed sheet is nitrided through a limited amount of nitrogen. This, in turn, renders the process for controlling the grain dimensions much less critical and results in a constant quality product.

Abstract: A feedback-connected on-line regulation system for a headbox of a paper or board machine. The headbox includes a flow duct for stock suspension or separate flow ducts placed one above the other, each flow duct extending from an inlet header of the headbox into its slice channel. A stock suspension jet is discharged from the slice opening of the slice channel onto the forming wire or into the forming gap formed between forming wires. The regulation system includes a regulator unit and a set value unit. Measurement values are passed from the headbox system to the regulator unit and from the regulator unit, control values are obtained for controlling the actuators of the headbox system. The regulation system also includes an on-line If arrangement for measurement of the dried paper web or the paper web to be dried, and includes measurement of the distribution of fibers in the plane of the paper web. By means of the measurement signal obtained from this measurement arrangement, the actuators of the headbox are controlled by feedback so as to achieve a distribution of fiber orientation and a corresponding MD/CD ratio of strength in accordance with the set value in the paper web to be produced under control of the regulation system.
