Title: Gel based livestock feed, method of manufacture and use
Inventor: LANTER KENT
IPC: A23K20/195
Filed: 2005-07-14
Granted: 2012-09-11
Abstract: A method of making a gel-type livestock feed includes initially forming a feed mixture by mixing feed nutrient components, water, alginate, and a calcium component insoluble in wafer or a sequestrate to inhibit the calcium component from reacting with the alginate. Once the feed mixture is formed, the calcium component is solubilized or the sequestrates affecting the reactivity between the alginate and the calcium component is removed such that a gel feed is formed that includes a gel matrix containing the feed nutrient components. The gel feed may then be fed to the livestock. In another aspect of the present invention, piglets are weaned by feeding the gel feed for at least seven days directly after weaning. The gel feed may also include protein derived from blood with or without egg protein.

Granted: 2014-09-02
Abstract: The present invention combines point light sources in combination with a light guide element and light redirecting elements into a system which can emit light across one or more extended surfaces of the light guide and may be designed to be able to emit light uniformly across the extended surfaces. The system comprises one or more light-emitting elements and a light guide in which are defined one or more voids.

One or more light-emitting elements can be optically coupled to one void such that they emit light into the light guide substantially through that void and not through any other void of the one or more voids. Optically coupled to the light guide are a plurality of light redirecting elements for altering of the propagation of light through the light guide, thereby enabling light to be emitted from the surface of the light guide in a desired pattern, for example in a uniform illumination pattern.

Abstract: A method and system for arbitrary resizing of a compressed image in the discrete cosine transform (DCT) domain. First and second scaling parameters P and Q are determined in accordance with the block numbers L and M and the scaling ratio L/M or M/L. A non-uniform, or uneven, sampling in the DCT domain is then applied to coefficients of successive blocks in the compressed image in accordance with the scaling parameters. In an embodiment, P blocks are sampled and transformed from a given block length to ¦P¦ according to a ¦P¦-point IDCT, while Q blocks are sampled and transformed from a given block length to ¦Q¦ according to a ¦Q¦-point IDCT. The non- uniformly sampled and transformed pixel domain samples are then regrouped into a predetermined block size and transformed back to generate the DCT coefficient of the compressed image. The proposed method significantly reduces the computational complexity compared with other DCT domain arbitrary ratio image resizing approach. It also facilitates the practical implementations since only the fast implementations of IDCT with length N (1 < N < 9) and DCT with length 8 are required.

Granted: 2014-11-04
Abstract: Sealed delivery unit 10 contains medication 10M, and is formed by a generally flat member 10F pressed into selective engagement with an opposed shaped member 10S. Pumping chamber 12P, enclosed between the members generates a rupturing pressure in response to an external force applied by the user Enclosed Medication chamber 12M contains the medication to be delivered. Tunnel conduit 14 provides fluid communication between the chambers for rupturing the medication chamber in response to the rupturing pressure. Perimeter seal 16 extends around the pumping chamber and the medication chamber and the tunnel conduit. The perimeter seal is secure enough to withstand the internal rupturing pressure generated during delivery. Delivery port 18 with pull-away closure 18C (see FIG. 1C) delivers the medication out of medication chamber 12M. Rupture site 18S is proximate the delivery port. Rupture flap 18F produced by the rupturing at the rupture site, is connected to the pull-away closure. The flap projects outward permitting the user to grasp the pull-away the closure and open the delivery port for delivery of the medication.

Title: Method, devices and computer program product for encoding and decoding media data
Inventor: THIRUVENGADAM SRINATH
IPC: H04N21/266
Filed: 2007-03-21
Granted: 2012-12-11
Abstract: The invention relates to methods for encoding and decoding media data (MD, CMD). One of the methods comprises the following steps: A request is transmitted by a subscriber terminal (1) over a control network (2) to a control server (3) to establish a set of encoding parameters (K) for control data. The request includes identification data (ID) of the subscriber terminal (1). The control server (3) thereupon specifies the set of encoding parameters (K) for control data, comprising a random number (R), a control data key (CK) and an integrity key (IK), wherein the control data key (CK) and the integrity key (IK) are dependent on the random number (R) and the identification data (ID). A media key (MK) dependent on the control data key (CK) and on the integrity key (IK) is then generated by the control server (3) and transmitted over a core network (4) to a media server (5). The media key (MK) is used to encode and decode the media data (MD, CMD) subsequently transmitted over a media network (6). The invention also relates to a subscriber terminal (1), a control server (3), and a computer program product that are suitable for implementing the method.

Abstract: A method of transforming an input image from a hemispherical source to an output image in rectilinear coordinates is disclosed. The method includes receiving data representative of an input image originating from a hemispherical camera and having a size defined by an input image height and an input image width. Once the data is received, an output image width and output image height representative of a size of a in rectilinear coordinates output image is calculated based on the size of the input image. The in rectilinear coordinates output image is then generated by mapping input image pixels to locations within the width and height of the output image, without reference to the optical characteristics of the hemispherical camera.

Abstract: A singulating and counting device (10) includes a bulk housing (11) for storing a plurality of substantially identical articles (A), an exit channel (20), and in the exit channel, forwardly (26a, 26b)- and rewardly (27) directed jet apertures, each of which is fluidly connected to a positive pressure source (28). A forwardly-directed jet generated by the positive pressure source through the forward jet aperture (26a, 26b) can accelerate singulated articles in the exit channel, thereby increasing the interval between individual articles and rendering them more easily and accurately counted. A rearwardly- directed jet generated by the positive pressure source through the rearwardly-directed jet aperture (27) can cause articles in the exit channel to return to the housing. A controller (40) operatively connected with the pressure source(s) selectively controls the application of positive pressure to the aforementioned apertures to induce or halt singulation of the articles; the controller may be operatively associated with a sensor (23) that detects and counts articles passing through the exit channel.
