Abstract: An optical structure (70) includes a light transmissive substrate (22) having a surface relief pattern (24) applied thereon, such as a hologram. A patterned layer of a reflective material (26) is applied over portions of the surface relief pattern so as to form alphanumeric characters, bars codes, or pictorial or graphical designs. An optically active coating (72) containing color shifting flakes (64) is applied over the patterned layer of reflective material and exposed portions of the surface relief pattern in order to provide desirable optical effects to the exposed portions of the surface relief pattern. The material of the optically active coating is index matched to the light transmissive substrate in order to optically erase the effect of the surface relief pattern in the portions (24a) of the surface relief pattern not covered by the reflective material.

Abstract: A voltage monitor circuit, wherein a high voltage is not applied to a monitor circuit even if a series circuit of plural batteries (1a, 1b, 1c and 1d) connecting a battery pack (1, 11, 21) is cut off, is provided. When a current breaking switch (3, 14) is turned off, a high series voltage with reversed polarity of plural batteries (1a, 1b, 1c and 1d) is generated across the current breaking switch (3, 14). Subsequently, a solid state switch (5a, 5b, 5c) with a negative voltage is turned off. Further, as a wire on the side of a battery pack monitor circuit (4, 24) also has a negative voltage, another solid state switch (5a, 5b, 5c) biased by a voltage of the wire is turned off likewise. Consequently, a high voltage is not generated between the wires (P1, P2, P3, P4) on the side of the battery pack monitor circuit (4, 24) even if the current breaking switch (3, 14) is turned off.

Abstract: The invention relates to an approximation of a DCT and a quantization which are to be applied subsequently to digital data for compression of this digital data. In order to improve the transform, it is proposed to simplify a predetermined transform matrix to require less operations when applied to digital data. In addition, elements of the simplified transform matrix constituting irrational numbers are approximated by rational numbers. These measures are compensated by extending a predetermined quantization to compensate for the approximation of elements of the simplified transform matrix by rational numbers. If the simplified transform matrix and the extended quantization are used as basis for implementation, a fast transform with a good resulting quality can be achieved. An approximation of an IDCT employed in decompression of compressed digital data can be simplified correspondingly.
