Patent EP-1384649-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KODAMA KAZUMASA
IPC: G01R19/00
Filed: 2003-07-24
Abstract: A vehicle steering control system is provided which is capable of reliably
protecting a motor (6) for driving a wheel steering shaft (8). The offset output characteristic
of a current sensor (70) for detecting the electric current applied to the steering shaft
drive motor (6) is actually measured prior to the actual use of the steering control
system, and offset compensation information is prepared based on the measured
value of the offset output characteristic for storage in an EEPROM. Further, an
output value of the current sensor (70) and an output value of a reference current
measuring system are measured independently of each other with the supply
voltage for use in measurement being set to a constant value. Then, current gain
compensation information is prepared based on the output values so measured and
is stored in the EEPROM. In the later actual use (i.e., after shipment) of the control
system, the output of the current sensor is compensated based on the offset
compensation information and the current gain compensation information.

Abstract: A multiple view display comprises a display device (20) such as a liquid crystal
device, a parallax optic (21) such as a parallax barrier, and a controller (25). The device
(20) comprises rows and columns of pixels and the controller supplies image data for a

connected power line sections (L1, L21, L22, L31, etc.), wherein a first electrically
upstream one of the line sections (L1) is connectable to a power source (S). The protection

second sets of functions being time graded in reverse to each other. The first and second
sets of functions are distributed amongst the relays such that if an under-current/under-voltage
function (UCV) in a second relay (R1') located downstream of a first relay (R1)
triggers operation of a circuit breaker (B1') associated with the second relay, an accelerated
overcurrent function (AOC) in the first relay (R1) triggers accelerated operation of a circuit
breaker (B1) associated with the first relay, thereby to isolate from the power source (S) the
line section (L1) that the first relay protects.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for automatically positioning a device. A sensor detects the position of a user. In response to signals from the sensor, a processor determines an ideal position for use of the device. Next, coordinates for movement of an arm supporting the device and for positioning of the device at an achievable position nearest to the ideal position are calculated, taking into account restraints, such as limitation on the sensors, actuators and motors that move the device, and nearby obstacles such as walls. The arm adjusts to move the device to the achievable position. The device is repositioned at intervals as the user moves. Once no user is detected, then the device is moved to a default position.

Abstract: Devices, methods and systems for low volume microarray processing are disclosed. The microarray devices preferably include a plurality of reactant sites on a reactant surface. The reactant sites include reactants that operate to capture one or more selected analytes that can then be detected based on an electromagnetic signal, e.g., fluorescence, that is emitted by each analyte in response to excitation energy incident on the microarray device. Mixing and/or distribution of the analyte sample over the reactant surface is accomplished by tilting the reactant surface such that the analyte sample flows over the reactant surface under the force of gravity. The tilting is performed such that a portion of the analyte sample accumulates in a bead along a first edge of the reactant surface. The reactant surface is then tilted in a different direction such that a portion of the analyte sample flows over the reactant surface and accumulates at a second edge. The reactant surface preferably generates sufficient capillary forces with the analyte sample such that the analyte sample is retained on the reactant surface. The tilting and resultant flow may be performed as many times as necessary to obtain the desired mixing and/or distribution of analyte sample over the reactant surface.
