Inventor: SAKURAI KEIICHI
IPC: G06T3/00
Filed: 2004-10-14
Abstract: A document camera (1) has an image processing apparatus (203), which acquires the contour of an image of an original (4) by means of a Roberts filter. The image processing apparatus (203) detects straight lines as candidates for forming an image of the original (4) from the acquired contour and acquires the shape of a quadrangle of the original (4). The image processing apparatus (203) determines the projection parameters showing the relationship between the shape of the image of the original (4) and the shape of the actual original (4) from the positions of the corners of the quadrangle and executes an operation of projection/transformation on the image of the original (4). The document camera (1) outputs the image data of the image to a projector (2), which projects an image of the original (4) on a screen (3) according to the image data.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for decoding of a trellis code applicable to a
recording/reproducing apparatus, like e.g. an AIT2 (Advanced Intelligent
Tape System 2) tape streamer system. The trellis code has no DC
component and no Nyquist frequency component. For encoding, a code word
is generated according to a finite state transition chart wherein the
cumulative DC electric charges (RDS) and cumulative AC electric charges
(ADS) of the code series are set to finite values. The trellis code
word, which has been NRZI-modulated, can be decoded without referring to
its tail code (bit) and without referring to its head code (bit), when
the above-mentioned trellis code word cannot take the start point at a
plurality of states.

Abstract: An air-gap type film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) is created by securing
two substrate parts, one providing a resonance structure and the other providing a
separation structure, i.e., a cavity. When the two substrate parts are secured, the
resonance structure is over the cavity, forming an air gap isolating the resonant
structure from the support substrate. The FBAR may be used to form a duplexer,
which includes a plurality of resonance structures, a corresponding plurality of cavities,
and an isolation part formed between the cavities. The separate creation of the
resonance structures and the cavities both simplifies processing and allows additional
