Patent EP-1132852-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TAKEKAWA KENICHI
IPC: G06F3/041
Filed: 2001-03-05
Abstract: A coordinate input/detection device (3)
compares a waveform of a signal corresponding to
intensity distribution of rays received from a
coordinate input area (3a) by a light-receiving unit
(39) and a standard waveform at fixed timing. If the
waveform is not equal to the standard waveform, the
coordinate input/detection device (3) determines that an
installation position of the light-receiving unit (39)
is off a correct position because of shock or vibration,
and obtains a new standard waveform and stores the new
standard waveform in a storage unit (47), thereby
setting the waveform of the signal corresponding to the
intensity distribution of rays received by the light-receiving
unit (39) located at an incorrect position as
the standard waveform. Accordingly, there is no error
in relative positions of a peak point corresponding to a
standard mark (M1-M4), that is, a standard for detecting
coordinates of a pointing instrument (P) in the
coordinate input area (3a), and a peak point
corresponding to the pointing instrument (P) in the
intensity distribution, thereby preventing misdetection
of the coordinates.

Title: Electronically controlled weapons range with return fire
Inventor: MUEHLE ERIC G
IPC: F41G3/26
Filed: 1997-04-30
Abstract: A weapons training range provides a simulated weapons use scenario
including return fire. A microprocessor selects branches from a multi-branch program
and causes an image projector to project subscenarios on a display screen visible to a
participant. In response to the subscenarios, the participant fires at projected threats.
Return fire simulators positioned behind the display screen return fire toward the
participant. Obstructions are placed in the weapons range to provide cover for the
participant. A video camera and X-Y position sensor identify the X-Y location of the
participant and try to detect exposed portions of the participant. Based upon the
identified X-Y location and any detected exposed portions, the microprocessor aims
the return fire simulators to provide simulated return fire. To simulate real world
aiming, the microprocessor induces time-based and response-based aiming errors.
Additionally, the microprocessor may aim the return fire simulators at objects in the
participation zone to produce deflected fire that may also strike the participant.

Abstract: First heat exchangers (H4, H3, H2) are disposed within an exhaust port
(18), within a pre-catalytic device (34), and on the downstream of a main
catalytic device (35); the exhaust port (18), the pre-catalytic device (34), and the
main catalytic device (35) being provided in each exhaust passage (33) of a
multicylinder internal combustion engine. These first heat exchangers (H4, H3,
H2) are independently provided for each of the exhaust passages (33), and a
second heat exchanger (H1) is disposed in a section where these exhaust
passages (33) are combined. Since the first heat exchangers (H4, H3, H2) are
disposed on the upstream side of the exhaust passage (33), high heat
exchange efficiency can be obtained by high temperature exhaust gas, and,
moreover, the occurrence of exhaust interference can be avoided, thereby
preventing any decrease in the output of the internal combustion engine.
Furthermore, since the second heat exchanger (H1) is disposed in the section
where the exhaust passages (33) are combined, the exhaust gas in which
pulsations have disappeared as a result of the flows being combined can be
made to act on the second heat exchanger (H1), thereby enhancing the heat
exchange efficiency.

Abstract: In a tree-structural key distribution system, renewed data of a master key and
medium key are sent along with a key renewal block (KRB). KRB is such that each
of devices included as leaves of a tree structure has a leaf key and restricted node key.
A specific KRB can be generated for a group identified by a specific node and
distributed to the group to restrict a device for which the key can be renewed. Any
device not belonging to the group cannot decrypt the key, whereby the security of key
distribution can be assured. Especially in a system using a generation-managed master
key, a master key renewed with KRB can be distributed.
