Inventor: DINWOODIE THOMAS L
IPC: H01L31/048
Filed: 2004-08-19
Abstract: Pressure equalization between upper and lower surfaces of PV modules (14) of an array (12) of PV modules can be enhanced in several ways. Air gaps (32, 34) opening into the air volume, defined between the PV modules and the support surface (16), should be provided between adjacent PV modules and along the periphery (18) of the array. The ratio of this air volume to the total area of the air gaps should be minimized. Peripheral wind deflectors (20) should be used to minimize aerodynamic drag forces on the PV modules. The time to equalize pressure between the upper and lower surfaces of the PV modules should be maintained below, for example, 10-20 milliseconds. The displacement created by wind gusts should be limited to, for example, 2-5 millimeters or less.; For inclined PV modules, rear air deflectors (148) are advised for each PV module and side air deflectors (162) are advised for the periphery of the array.

Abstract: A sound absorbing structure is constituted of a vibration plate and a rear air layer and is installed in a luggage compartment or trunk which is separated from a cabin in a vehicle. Sound waves entering into the luggage compartment drive the vibration plate to vibrate so that acoustic energy is converted into mechanical energy and is consumed by way of vibration of the vibration plate. By appropriately setting parameters and dimensions, the sound absorbing structure efficiently absorbs low-frequency sound such as road noise occurring due to friction of wheels of the vehicle traveling on a road.

Title: Targets for use with interactive activity devices
Inventor: SHUM ALBERT
IPC: A41D15/00

Abstract: Apparel is disclosed that can be worn to assist an interactive game in tracking the movement of the wearer. More particularly, the apparel may include one or more tracking marks formed of designs, patterns, or reflective materials that can be easily tracked by an interactive game employing one or more cameras or other detectors for detecting a change in position of an object. The apparel may take the form of, for example, hats, shirts, jackets, pants, gloves, and shoes. By providing tracking marks on apparel, rather than using a special-purpose device that must be separately worn, a player may enjoy a more natural feel when playing the interactive game. Further, the player need not don any special equipment to play the game.; Instead, a user can wear the apparel for everyday purposes, and then simply begin playing the game wearing the apparel without having to put on any additional equipment. The apparel may use reflective materials, and the interactive game can employ a camera and a light source configuration where the camera is located within the observation angle of a player employing retroreflective materials reflecting light from the light source.

Abstract: A method and system for network-based distribution of content are disclosed. The distribution of content is not only secure but also controlled. The security restricts access to content within media files during downloads as well as while stored at a server or client. In one embodiment, each media file is encrypted with a different, randomly generated key. The control over the distribution of the media file can serve to limit the subsequent distribution of media files from clients to other clients. In another embodiment, the control can permit media files to be shared on a limited number of different clients affiliated with the same user. The clients can vary with application but generally are computing devices that have memory storage. Often, the clients are personal computers or other computing devices that are capable of storing and presenting content to their users.

Abstract: Systems and methods to achieve a circuit for driving one or more infrared transmitter LEDs with temperature compensation have been disclosed. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the circuit has been applied for a rain sensing system. The junction temperature of the LED is measured and compensated by adjusting the driver current of a voltage-to-current converter driving the LED. The LED junction temperature is measured by comparing the difference in the forward diode voltage at different current densities. This voltage difference is extracted when switching the drive currents between different constant values. The measurement results are converted to digital values, which are used by a buffered dual ladder resistive DAC structure to adjust the drive current to temperature variations.
