Title: Method and apparatus for enhancing user interest in static digital images
Inventor: FROHLICH DAVID MARK
IPC: H04N1/32
Filed: 2003-04-30
Granted: 2007-11-21
Abstract: Systems and methods of producing video data and/or audio-photos from a static digital image are disclosed. One such method, among others, comprises receiving input from a user indicating sequentially, in real time, a plurality of regions of the static digital image. The method also includes processing the user input to determine the visual content of each of a sequence of video frames and generating output data representative of the sequence of video frames. The sequence and composition of the video frames are determined such that the visual content of the video frames is taken from the static digital image. For each region of the static image indicated by the user, a video frame is composed such that the said region occupies a substantial part of the video frame. The sequence of video frames shows the regions indicated by the user in sequential correspondence with the sequence in which the user indicated the regions and substantially in pace with the time in which the user indicated the regions.

Granted: 2011-06-01
Abstract: A trailer electronic braking system for a road train includes a tractor and a plurality of trailers. The braking system includes a braking ECU on at least one trailer and an ABS system on a further trailer. A communication interface is provided so that the braking ECU on a first trailer and the ABS control unit on a second trailer are able to communicate with one another. In use, the braking ECU on the first trailer receives an input from a respective sensor on the first trailer adapted to detect lateral acceleration anchor wheel speed. In the event that the sensor detects lateral acceleration anchor a wheel speed indicative of a loss of stability, the sensor generates a signal for actuating stability control, which signal is passed via the communication interface to the ABS control unit on the other trailer, so that the other trailer can actuate the brakes on that trailer.

Title: Forming necks on hollow bodies
Inventor: SLADE MARK NEIL
IPC: B21D51/26
Filed: 1983-12-29
Granted: 1986-02-19
Abstract: A thin-walled hollow body open at one end, e.g. a metal can body (76), is given a terminal neck (74) by engaging a primary chuck nose (22) sealingly in the open end and pressurising the body internally to pre-stress it and hold it against a lift pad (16); the latter is lowered so that the sidewall end portion (80) is progressively rolled by forming rolls (46) to form the neck partly in free space (38) and partly against a secondary chuck nose (30) which maintains the pressure seal when the seal between the sidewall and the primary chuck nose is broken. In a modification, the rolls (46) may be withdrawn early, so as to leave a terminal flange on the can body.

Title: Spreading material on a surface
Inventor: VAN DER LELY ARY
IPC: A01C15/00
Filed: 1986-06-03
Granted: 1987-09-03
Abstract: An agricultural spreader comprises distribution members (11, 12) which rotate to eject material such as fertilizer. The spreader can tilt to one side or the other so as to reduce the spreading distance on one side.

Filed: 1987-01-23
Granted: 1989-06-12
Abstract: This invention relates to a robot which serves automatically a plurality of machines for winding any kind of wires or yarns. This robot is mounted on a wire-guided and/or radio-controlled carriage (100); it can run on a normal floor and may serve the winding machines (B) and the spool-supplying and collecting magazines, regardless of their relative positions. When co-operating with the winding machines (B), the robot-mounting carriage (100) will move into the correct position with respect to the winding machine to be served, and then will stop. The removal of a filled spool and insertion of an empty spool are effected by slides (42) which are associated with supporting brackets (56, 56') of said robot. The robot is provided with an electro-mechanical programmer which controls the lifting movement of the assembly of said brackets (56, 56') for adjusting their positions to the level of the lower side of the spools of different diameters in the winding machines. The programmer is associated with the bracket-carrying structure of the robot, which may be controlled to rotate about its vertical axis, whereby said rotation can occur with the brackets in their upper position, thus reducing the working time of the robot.
