Inventor: WATANABE HIDETOSHI
IPC: G09F9/30
Filed: 2004-02-06
Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide electrostatic discharge damage protection during manufacturing and to suppress power consumption as low as possible during ordinary use of the electronic device having been manufactured, with avoidance of the problem of electric corrosion. An electronic device 10 comprising an array of pixels 12 wherein row and column address lines 18, 20 for addressing each pixel 12 are arranged. Each address line is connected to a discharge line 30, 32 through a discharge circuit 38. The circuit allows the passage of charge between the address line and the first discharge line 30 when the address line is at a potential below that of the first discharge line, and allows the passage of charge between the address line and the second discharge line 32 when the address line is at a potential above that of the second discharge line. The discharge elements have a configuration in which the one is in an electrically floating state during ordinary operation of the electronic device, or a conductive path making conduction in order that leakage current of the discharge device occurring during ordinary operation of the electronic device can be used for the peripheral circuitry.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur d'une manière générale sur un procédé et un appareil déterminant les crédits en matière d'émission de C, et en particulier sur un procédé et un appareil de création et quantification de crédits normalisés provenant de réductions des émissions de C. A cet effet on introduit dans un modèle de séquestration du C les données générales disponibles et les données propres aux sites, afin de déterminer les variations approximatives du niveau des composés de C stockés dans un milieu tel que le sol pendant une période donnée. On effectue ensuite une analyse d'incertitude des résultats pour quantifier et normaliser les crédits provenant de réductions des émissions de C. Lesdits crédits peuvent être compilés en vue d'échanges ou mis en réserve.

IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 2004-12-24
Abstract: The invention provides methods used to analyze the contents of a biological sample, such as blood serum, with cascade Raman sensing. A fluorescence producing nanoporous biosensor having probes that bind specifically to known analytes is contacted with a biological sample and one or more bound complexes coupled to the porous semiconductor structure are formed. The bound complexes are contacted with a Raman-active probe that binds specifically to the bound complexes and the biosensor is illuminated to generate fluorescent emissions from the biosensor. These fluorescent emissions generate Raman signals from the bound complexes. The Raman signals produced by the bound complexes are detected and the Raman signal associated with a bound protein-containing analyte is indicative of the presence of the protein-containing compound in the sample. The invention methods are useful to provide a protein profile of a patient sample. The invention also provides detection systems useful to practice the invention methods.

Abstract: A separable fastener for holding two objects together with the use of a bolt threaded into the fastener. The necessary inherent axial tension in the bolt/fastener system is accommodated by a relief element which relieves at least some of the stored tension before the nut separates, thereby reducing the physical shock on the assembly. The energy needed to separate the nut and bolt is entirely contained within the system so that pyrotechnic devices are unnecessary for the purpose.

Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to
enhance a specific color without changing the hue of
an original image. 
     At least two different gray-level correction
functions are provided for luminance signals input
for three colors, R, G and B, and these functions are
used to calculate correction coefficients for the
individual colors. Then, the luminance signals input
for the three colors are synthesized so that the
weighting of the colors is changed in accordance with
the input luminance signals, and a correction
coefficient is calculated that is used in common. The
input signals are then multiplied by the thus
obtained correction coefficient.

Abstract: Noises in an interior of an automobile are estimated based
on sensed values of sensors that sense a speed (driving speed),
an accelerator opening angle, and an engine speed respectively.
This estimation is carried out by searching a noise estimation
database. A masking characteristic of an audio signal is
deduced based on the estimated noises. An equalizing
characteristic to prevent a masking of the audio signal is
decided based on the masking characteristic, and then the audio
signal is equalized.
