Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP94/02870 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 9, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 9, 1996 PCT Filed Aug. 30, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/07591 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 16, 1995Block matching is well known as a robust and intuitively simple method of motion estimation for television pictures. However, when the purpose of the motion estimation is to provide accurate interpolation between images, conventional block matching suffers from the problem that the blocks are situated in the original fields rather than in the fields to be interpolated, leading to possible errors in the calculated motion field. The invention uses two-sided block matching. The search window is shared between the two input fields so that the candidate motion vectors related to be candidate pixel blocks all pass through the same points in the field to be interpolated. Thus, the "current block" becomes a notional area in the field to be interpolated, and each of the two search windows extends to half the maximum motion vector in each direction. Each motion vector points forward to the forward field by half its value and backward to the backward field by half its value. Two-sided block matching solves the positional error problem because the current blocks cover the interpolated field and are correctly placed in the interpolated field, and it solves the problem of gaps and conflicts because every point in the interpolated field has one motion vector assigned to it.

Abstract: The ink level sensor of the invention comprises an ink container having a generally cylindrical shield extending downward from its top to define shielded and unshielded compartments within the container. Ink, but not foam, froth or mist, flows under the shield to the shielded compartment. A plurality of conductive rods of differing length extend downwardly into the shielded compartment from the container top. The rods are connected to an impedance network which provides signals representative of the ink level inside the container. A vacuum source can be connected to each compartment to maintain pressure equilibrium in the compartments and to prevent foam, froth or mist from entering the shielded compartment. Alternatively, a return pump is used to force ink into the container such that each compartment can be vented to the atmosphere.

Abstract: One end of a passenger bridge or a goods-handling device of mobile type can be expediently and securely connected to a door on a craft, especially an aircraft, by determining the position of the door in relation to a reference point on the craft and storing it in a computer system. Furthermore, the absolute position of the door when the craft has come to a halt and the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device is to be connected, is determined by measuring the distance from a reference point on the ground to the craft. Finally, the computer system guides the passenger bridge to the door of the craft, the position of the end of the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device being determined during the guiding operation and inputted into the computer system. To further shorten the connection time, the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device is advantageously guided to an initial position of connection in the vicinity of the craft, in which position the end of the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device is aligned with the expected position of the door and disposed at a small distance therefrom, before the craft has come to a halt.

Abstract: This invention describes that apoptin fails to induce apoptosis in human normal cells. Besides, the invention describes that when normal cells are transformed, they become susceptible to the apoptin-induced apoptosis. The invention describes that apoptin induces in various human tumor cells a p53-distinct type of apoptosis, and cannot be blocked by a variety of apoptosis-inhibiting agents. The invention comprises an anti-tumor agent, which specifically kill tumor and not normal cells. It further provides the induction of cell death by means of gene therapy. Apoptin can induce apoptosis in non-human animal tumor cells. The invention also provides that in normal cells apoptin was found predominantly in the cytoplasm, while in tumor cells it was located in the nucleus. Besides, the invention comprises a diagnostic test for the determination of cell-transforming activity.

Abstract: The embroidery machine, and especially a shuttle embroidery machine, has an individual thread guide (17) which can be moved in and out of action for each embroidery point (S1-S3). A switch unit simultaneously moves the needles (15) and the thread guides (17) in and out of action at an embroidery point (S1-S3), and also acts on a further unit such as a fabric drill (43), thread brake and/or thread monitor at the embroidery point (S1-S3). A coupling (51,53,69), at a unit (15,43,17) to be switched in and out of action, engages a straight edge (33,42,37) according to the position of the switch unit for one or more embroidery points (S1-S3), or is held by the switch unit in a disengaged position. A spring holds the couplings in the engaged position, to be moved against the spring action by the switch unit. The switch unit has a trough at a switch rod to secure the coupling away from the straight edge. The switch unit is operated pneumatically. The thread guide (17) is between two thread deflectors, and moves across the line of thread travel in a vertical movement. An eyelet (65) is at a thread guide lever (63), which is given a translatory movement by a swing shaft (61). The thread guide lever can be linked at an intermediate lever, as a swing coupling.
