Patent EP-1298610-A3 (EP)
Inventor: HUGHS-BAIRD ANDREA C
IPC: G07F17/32
Filed: 2002-09-27
Abstract: The present invention provides a gaming device having a game that may be implemented in a primary or bonus game. More specifically, the present invention provides a processor controlled gaming device that presents a plurality of masked value choices to the player, provides a time period in which the player can elect to accept a masked choice and reveals and provides a value associated with the choice to the player if the player accepts in time. If the player does not accept in time or decides not to accept the choice, the gaming device, in one preferred embodiment, reveals the value the player could have accepted when the time period lapses or times out. When the player has successfully accepted a predefined number of masked choices, the game adds or multiplies the values yielded by the choices to form an award for the player.

Abstract: The effective yawing couple exerted by the wheels of the vehicle is calculated in real time from collected transverse forces at the centre of each front and rear wheel. The desired yaw couple is calculated from steering wheel signals and a comparison is made of the two couples. If the actual yaw couple exceeds the desired yaw couple the motor couple and braking are modified to diminish the error signal. Similar procedures apply to other forces

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ink jet printer
head fabricating method involving forming electrodes on
surfaces of plural grooves by an electroless plating method
using a wet process, the plural grooves being formed in a
laminate substrate constituted by a laminate of two
piezoelectric members, cutting off an end face of the
laminate substrate which end face is located on an open
side of the grooves, by means of a dicing saw, and
subsequently removing burrs of the electrodes by brushing
with a brushing device. Burrs of the electrodes formed on
the surfaces of the grooves are removed by the brushing
completely without chipping or cracking of the electrodes,
thereby preventing defects in ink ejection such as
misdirection, i.e., failure to make a straight flying of
ink droplets, and unstable flying of ink.

Abstract: A data transmitting/receiving system adds identifying information to a data packet based on characteristics of the data. The identifying information can be a data type of a payload data of an IP/UDP/RTP packet and/or a temporal data sequence of the payload data. The IP/UDP/RTP packet added with the identifying information is segmented into an IP/UDP/RTP header and IP/UDP/RTP data. The segmented IP/UDP/RTP header and the IP/UDP/RTP data can be transmitted through different channels. A receiver sends retransmission control information based on the added identifying information extracted by the receiver, the retransmission control information providing retransmission time and priority information. A transmitter retransmits reception error occurring IP/UDP/RTP data according to the retransmission control information received by the transmitter. Varying the retransmission times and/or retransmission priority based on the data characteristics, accommodates data retransmission so that data more influential to data restoration in case of loss/damage can be received more stably.

Abstract: The semiconductor device comprises: insulating films
40, 42 formed over a substrate 10; an interconnection 58 buried
in at least a surface side of the insulating films 40, 42;
insulating films 60, 62 formed on the insulating film 42 and
including a hole-shaped via-hole 60 and a groove-shaped
via-hole 66a having a pattern bent at a right angle; and buried
conductors 70, 72a buried in the hole-shaped via-hole 60 and
the groove-shaped via-hole 66a, wherein the groove-shaped
via-hole 66a is formed to have a width which is smaller than
a width of the hole-shaped via-hole 66. Whereby, the defective
filling of the buried conductor is prevented, and the cracking
of the inter-layer insulating film can be prevented. Steps
on the conductor plug can be reduced, so that the step cannot
be influential on the upper interconnection layers and
insulating layers. Accordingly, defective contact with the
upper interconnection layer and the problems taking place
in forming films can be prevented, and resultantly the
semiconductor device can have high water resistance and high
interconnection reliability.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to ink-jet ink compositions, methods, and systems
for increasing the bleed and smear fastness and optical density of a printed image.
Specifically, an aqueous ink-jettable ink composition is disclosed which exhibits a
decrease in pH upon exposure to radiation, followed by precipitation of the ink colorant.
The composition can comprise an ink vehicle, an effective amount of an ink colorant
having pH dependent solubility properties, and an effective amount of a photo-initiated
acid generator. The method comprises the steps of formulating the composition, jetting
the ink composition from an ink-jet pen onto a substrate, and exposing the ink-jetted ink
on the substrate to radiation wherein the ink-jet ink composition exhibits reduced pH,
followed by precipitation of the colorant. Additionally, the system can comprise an ink-jet
ink pen containing the ink-jettable ink composition, a substrate configured for
accepting a printed image from the ink-jet pen, and an energy source configured for
irradiating the printed image such that a decrease in pH is realized resulting in
precipitation of the ink colorant.

Abstract: Of the pieces of facility information of the map information stored in map
information storage section 6, those that need to be altered are stored in editing
information storage section 10. Each piece of positional information on a facility in the
updating information relating to the facility and specifically describing alterations is
linked to a piece of pre-edition information and stored in the editing information storage
section 10 as post-edition information to generate a pair of pieces of editing information.
As a destination is selected and input at operation section 7, the editing information is
retrieved and a piece of pre-edition information or post-edition information containing
positional information same as that of the destination is detected. The pre-edition
information is replaced by the updating information of the detected post-edition
information of the editing information to define the destination and the route of movement.
Thus, if the map information is unwritable, alterations to the map information can be made
to it by means of editing information so that the user can be provided with appropriate
guidance. Thus, the cost of revising the map information can be significantly reduced.

Abstract: In a method for negotiating service configuration in a
communication system having at least one dedicated channel which is not
shared by communication devices in the communication system, a request
message indicative of a proposed service configuration is generated in
a service negotiator (20). The request message is multiplexed, in a
multiplexer (22) coupled to the negotiator (20), with an information
data signal to produce a multiplexed signal. The multiplexed signal
is encoded in an encoder (24) interposed between the multiplexer (22)
and a transmitter (26) in accordance with a service configuration
selected by the service negotiator (20). The multiplexed and encoded
signal is transmitted by the transmitter (26) over the dedicated
channel. Received signals are decoded a decoder (16) interposed
between a receiver (14) and a demultiplexer (18). A response message
indicative of a response to the proposed service configuration is
received by the receiver (14). A determination is made by the
service negotiator (20) whether the response message is indicative of a
mutually acceptable service configuration. The encoder (24) is
directed by the service negotiator (20) to encode the information data
signal in accordance with the proposed service configuration if the
response message is indicative of an acceptable service
configuration. The encoder (24) is directed by the service negotiator
(20) to encode the information data signal with a universal default
service configuration if the response message is not indicative of an
acceptable service configuration.
