Abstract: A motion estimation system, particularly for television applications, comprises
a 3D-recursive search block-matching device for generating motion vectors representing the
motion of the content of pixel blocks in response to successive fields or frames of video
signals. This block-matching device is provided with a motion estimator (2) for generating
estimated motion vectors, a spatial prediction memory (3) and/or a temporal prediction
memory (4), wherein the estimated motion vectors are stored. The stored motion vectors form
a basis for generating further motion vectors for next pixel blocks and/or next images.
Between the spatial prediction memory (3) and/or the temporal prediction memory (4) on the
one side and the motion estimator (2) on the other side a vector filter (5,6) is provided, which,
when a prediction candidate is coming from a location outside a predefined neighborhood,
either substitutes the prediction candidate with a safe one or modifies the prediction candidate
according to a predefined algorithm.

Abstract: A thin member for sealing and holding optical fibers laid
two-dimensionally is composed of a base member layer, an
adhesive member layer deposited on the base member layer, and
a laminate member layer holding the optical fibers between it
and the adhesive member layer. The optical fibers are arranged
parallel not to be superposed on one another. They are bent
individually by 180 degrees at the right-hand end of the thin
member, bent downward toward the lower side of the thin member
at the area from the central part to the left-hand side part,
and led out of the thin member. Hence the structure is thin
and therefore can be accommodated in a small space, enabling
a small size. If the portions, led out of the thin member, of
the optical fibers are covered with tubes, breakage of the
optical fibers can be prevented. The thin member can be
flexible.

Abstract: A contents data distributing method performs a storing
procedure, distribution procedure, receiving procedure and
conversion procedure, in order to distribute contents data to
portable terminals of various models connectable to a
communication network from a distribution center via the
communication network. The storing procedure converts
contents data into a standardized distribution format for
storing in a database in the distribution center. The
distribution procedure reads selected contents data from the
database for distribution to portable terminals via the
communication network. The receiving procedure receives the
distributed contents data at portable terminals. The
conversion procedure converts the format of the received
contents data from the standardized distribution format into
a format specific to the model of a portable terminal to
enable the reproduction of the contents data. Portable
terminals can exchange messages with other terminals via the
communication network, and, when a specific portable terminal
receives a message from another terminal, reproduces the
contents data and informs the arrival of the message.
