Patent JP-4204067-B2 (JP)
IPC: H04N1/00
Filed: 1995-04-10
Granted: 2009-01-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and arrangement for deriving an ancillary signal from a compressed digital video signal (e.g. MPEG). The DC coefficients of autonomously encoded pictures (I-pictures) are selected from the compressed signal. The ancillary signal thus obtained can be used for display in a (multi-) picture-in-picture television receiver. A decoder for decoding such an ancillary signal is considerably simpler and less expensive than a full-spec MPEG decoder.
Patent JP-4044965-B2 (JP)
IPC: H04N7/16
Filed: 1997-12-17
Granted: 2008-02-06
Abstract: A method of anonymous targeted insertion of indicia into video broadcasts. Individual televisions or other video reception devices are associated with set-top boxes that monitor the usage and viewing habits of the television set or other video reception device. A viewer profile derived from data acquired from said monitoring is created wherein the viewer profile indicates certain characteristics about the viewer. This profile is transmitted to a centralized database, said centralized database being an intermediate link between the origin of the video broadcast and the end viewer. The purpose of the database is to link specific insertable indicia with matching specific viewer profiles. The insertable indicia are encoded directly into the broadcast video and re-broadcast to the end viewer where the set-top box decodes the broadcast video and performs insertion of the indicia. Thus, the system and method allow advertisers to target specific ads or indicia to specific viewing profiles.

Title: Tire pressure monitoring device
Inventor: LUNDQVIST TORBJORN B
IPC: B60C23/00
Filed: 2001-11-21
Granted: 2005-10-06
Abstract: A low tire pressure monitoring device that is affixed to a tire valve stem and methods of using the same. The monitoring device comprises a housing having a counter-pressure chamber, a main pressure chamber, and a flexible membrane that separates the two chambers. The monitoring device is calibrated by trapping the tire's initial air pressure in the counter-pressure chamber. The air pressure within the main pressure chamber is equivalent to the air pressure within the tire. Over the course of time, the air pressure within the tire and concomitantly the air pressure within the main pressure chamber decreases. When the pressure in the counter-pressure is greater than the pressure within the main pressure chamber, the flexible membrane touches and completes an electrical circuit and a warning signal is emitted.
