Abstract: A liquid crystal is used as the phase modulating medium in a microwave phase modulating cell (20). Applied electric and/or magnetic fields transverse to the direction of wave propagation create a birefringence that changes the velocity of wave propagation and the index of refraction of the medium. The phase modulating cell (20) is used singly or in arrays to direct microwave beams.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for obtaining well defined surface descriptions from a three-dimensional image is disclosed. The invention employs an imaging system to receive as input a surface of points. The surface of points is modified in the memory (30) of the graphic system to conform to the surface they represent by continually shrinking the points until they conform precisely to the surface to be matched. The resulting set of vectors are displayed by the graphic system. The imaging system provides remarkable improvements in representing the surface.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for calculating the porosity and permeability of materials using compositional and textural parameters. The step of determining the compositional parameters include identifying the constituent components comprising the sample. From the composition, and with knowledge of the sample area, one can readily identify foreign materials which may affect the porosity and permeability. Furthermore from the composition, the samples may be readily grouped or classified with samples having similar composition. The method provides one manner of discriminating between such samples. Following composition, the sample is disaggregated and the grain size distribution is determined. From the grain size, and following a correction/adjustment to the distribution, an optimum grain index is calculated. The optimum grain index is then correlated to a porosity coefficient which is then used to calculate the porosity. From the porosity, permeability is readily calculated based upon recognized relationships. The results of the method produce an output correlating the porosity to permeability as a function of sample location.

Abstract: A keyed, true transparency combine and keyer receive a plurality of image information signals, each having a corresponding input key signal (Bk₁,Bk j ,Bk N ) over a respective channel. The image signals (V i ) can be dynamically ranked in a defined prioritized order, even on a field-by-field basis. However, rather than switch the individual image signals as their prioritized order changes, the order of the channels is dynamically and switchably interchanged within a keyer means by switchably interchanging a plurality of substantially identical keyer units (304,306,308) while generating a plurality of processed true transparency image key signals.

Abstract: A two-stage accumulating register circuit (51, 53, 59, 65, 67, 68) sequentially evaluates a boundary equation of the form AX+BY+C for each pixel (SCAN POINT) in a raster-scan video special effects display, where A, B and C are coefficients of the boundary (30, 31, 32, 33) and X and Y are the pixel and line values of each pixel in the display. Each register stage (51, 53, 59 and 65, 67, 68) is synchronized with the special effects system clocks (XVSL, V CLK, XHSL, PIXEL CLOCK RATE) to generate the completed output (80) at the required pixel rate. One register stage (65, 67, 68) generates the term AX and the other register stage (51, 53, 59) generates the term BY+C. A plurality of N register circuits (Fig. 4) are fabricated on one integrated circuit in order to form a detector circuit which can detect whether a pixel (SCAN POINT) lies within an N-sided patch (20) on the display.

Abstract: Data can be overwritten at high density by a simple arrangement and with a small energy. Also, data of high recording density can be accurately recorded and reproduced by a simple arrangement. An alternating field having the same frequency as that of a recording fundamental clock generated by a PLL circuit (8) is generated by a coil (5) that constructs a tank circuit (7) and then applied to a magneto-optical disc (1). A phase of the recording fundamental clock is modulated by a phase modulating circuit (12) in association with recording data and a pulse synchronized with leading edge and trailing edge of such clock is generated by a pulse generating circuit (13). An optical pickup device (4) irradiates the magneto-optical disc (1) with a laser light in synchronism with the pulse. Therefore, a high density recording method in which the edge position of pit is shifted stepwise in association with data to be recorded can be applied to a magneto-optical recording in which a pit is formed by partially inverting a magnetization of a magneto- optical film of the magneto-optical disc (1).

Abstract: A pacemaker for providing optimized inhibit and trigger responses, operating in a VVD or AAD mode. For each pacemaker cycle, the pacemaker is controlled to time out a refractory interval (45), an inhibit interval (50) or range following a refractory interval (47), and a trigger interval or range which follows the inhibit interval and ends at the time out of the scheduled escape interval (54). A signal sensed during the inhibit range results in no pace pulse delivery, the pacemaker goes to the trigger mode and extends the escape interval. Any signal thereafter sensed before the time out of the extended escape interval results in delivery of a trigger pulse (52) and restarting of a new pacemaker cycle. If no signal is sensed during the inhibit range, any signal sensed during the trigger range results in generation of a trigger pulse and the start of a new pacemaker cycle. The overall result is that noise or other signals which occur within the inhibit range are inhibited without a trigger, with only a small extension of the escape interval so that pacing rate is not greatly affected. Any signal sensed in the trigger range results in delivery of a trigger pulse. The result is an optimized combination of inhibition and triggering which ensures pacing in the presence of any noise that is sensed with relatively minimized sacrifice in rate change and battery energy depletion.

Abstract: In a large area display system, multiple persons may work together with multiple input devices for supplying and receiving information in an interactive system with a single large area display. The large area display system comprises a screen (20) wherein computer generated information is projected upon one side of the screen, and users interact with the computer (29) from the opposite side of the the screen (20). Data coordinates for an input device corresponding to a pseudo image sensed by the receiving subsystem electronics are provided to the controlling computer (29). The input data coordinates from the pseudo image are normalized for variations due to frequency dependence and electronic drift. The normalized data coordinates are looked up in a calibration table to account for distortion in the pseudo image detection electronics. Screen coordinates corresponding to pixel locations on the large area screen (20) are found by interpolation from the data from the calibration table. The calibration table is prepared off-line, based on a bicubic spline interpolating function which is then compressed using a delta compression scheme. During on-line operation of the system, screen coordinates are looked-up directly from the compressed table. The screen coordinates are then jitter smoothed to provide a smooth path of response closely conforming to original input locations. The jitter smoothing method uses an exponential function based on the magnitude of the change in the position of the input.

Abstract: A filter rod is produced by adding a water-soluble polymer in the form of an aqueous solution or dispersion, or in a particulate form, to a tow of cellulose ester fiber, with the amount of any water used being controlled within 25 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the tow, and wrapping the treated tow in wrapping paper. The water contained in the filter rod is removed or the particulate water-soluble polymer is melted by heating to bond the fiber to provide a tobacco filter. The proportion of the water soluble polymer is 0.5 to 30 parts by weight to 100 parts by weight of the tow. To reduce the amount of water relative to the tow, a hot-melt adhesive water-soluble polymer may be employed. As the amount of water added to the tow is thus decreased, the tow can be smoothly wrapped up even at a high speed so that filter productivity is improved. This tobacco filter is highly wet-disintegratable and, hence, contributes to mitigation of the environmental pollution.
