Abstract: The system includes a database(16) with a files(18a,18b,18c), each file containing data corresponding to alpha-numeric characters and respectively associated with a number of system references. An input interface(22a,22b) allows a user to enter an alpha-numeric character to search a reference. A processor(20) selects a file of references containing each input character. An output interface(26a,26b) transmits data to the user and invites the user to enter at least a supplementary alpha-numeric character when the selected references is greater than a pre-determined number. The data associated with the selected references when the number of references selected is less than or equal to a pre-determined number is transmitted to the user.

Abstract: The erasing and read techniques use connection sequences to produce better performance. For the erasing process, the source connection of the floating grid and drain of the integrated circuit transistor are earthed, and the command grid given high voltage programming (VPP) above the integrated circuit voltage feed. Programming is used to erase the first cell, and remove the electrical charges in stages. In read, the transistor source is earthed, and the amplifier connected to the transistor drain and the command grid given a command voltage between the earth voltage and feed voltage. The second cell is not connected.

Abstract: Elément d'affichage comprenant une pièce mobile qui se déplace pour afficher une face brillante ou une face sombre dans la direction de vision dans des positions 'marche' et 'arrêt' respectivement. Un dispositif d'éclairage permet d'éclairer la pièce mobile en position 'marche' pour une vision dans un premier arc d'azimut comprenant la direction de vision. La pièce mobile peut masquer le dispositif d'éclairage aux observateurs dans la position 'arrêt' de la pièce. Outre la lumière provenant de l'élément éclairé, les composants peuvent être disposés de telle sorte que les observateurs sur un deuxième arc puissent voir le dispositif directement lorsque l'élément est en position 'marche'. Les pièces peuvent être disposées en ensembles pour former un signe modifiable. Ainsi, l'ensemble peut être constitué d'éléments simples, de colonnes de ces éléments ou d'une combinaison d'éléments et de colonnes. L'utilisation d'un dispositif d'éclairage pour chaque pièce mobile permet de placer un ensemble plus près d'un pare-brise de véhicule, ce qui donne une vision plus large.

IPC: G06T7/246
Filed: 1997-02-12
Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing a geometric relationship between the image motion of pairs of points over multiple image frames representing a three-dimensional scene. This relationship is based on the parallax motion of points with respect to an arbitrary planar surface, and does not involve epipolar geometry. A constraint is derived over two frames (504) for any pair of points (506), relating their projective structure (with respect to the plane) based only on their image coordinates and their parallax displacements. Similarly, a 3D-rigidity constraint between pairs of points over multiple frames is derived. Applications disclosed for these parallax-based constraints include recovery of 3D scene structure (512), detection of moving objects in the presence of camera induced motion (510), and synthesis of new camera views based on a given set of views (514). Moreover, the approach can handle difficult situations for 3D scene analysis, e.g., where there is only a small set of parallax vectors, and in the presence of independently moving objects.

Abstract: An apparatus with a housing (1) containing a first, stationary lower plate electrode (9) and a second, movable upper plate electrode (10), wherein both plate electrodes are electrically conductive, mutually insulated and electrically connected to respective terminals of a battery (7). The second plate electrode (10) is freely movable, spaced apart from the first plate electrode (9) and provided with an opening (17). A syringe needle (16) to be destroyed may be inserted into the opening (17) such that it contacts both plate electrodes (9, 10) and an electric current flows through the needle to melt and thus destroy said needle. The molten metal resulting from the destruction of the needle (16) falls into a collecting compartment (18). An electric current control circuit inhibits operation when the electrodes are dirty. A reliable apparatus guaranteeing the destruction of the needle (16) to provide effective decontamination is thus achieved.

Abstract: A pole (1), for example a flagpole, is made of a material which is mainly made up of a first component, such as glass, and a second component, such as a polymer. The two components enter into the material as premade composite fibres formed by both components, in the form of a web (2) of rovings. The polymer is a thermoplastic polymer, for example polypropylene, and the pole is made of the composite fibres under heat stress which softens the polymer and thereby joins the composite fibres so that they, after cooling, assume fixed shape. In this way, for example a flagpole which is less expensive than a conventional flagpole of for example glass-fibre reinforced polyester and which, at the same time, has just as good properties, can be manufactured.

Abstract: The invention concerns a drive control for motor and utility vehicles. The speeds of the wheels and the steering angle are measured by means of sensors. Driving axle slip is determined by comparing the average peripheral wheel speeds of the driven and non driven axles and by taking into account the steering geometry. Driving force and finally chassis efficiency are determined by the slip with the assistance of standard characteristic lines. The efficiencies of all-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive are compared. The drive with the higher degree of efficiency is engaged.
