Abstract: A computing device comprising: a processing device; and a storage resource storing 
instructions which, when executed by the processing device, cause the processing 
device to: determine an actual direction of travel of a user; determine a desired 
5 heading of the user toward a specified waypoint; determine an angular deviation 
between the desired heading and the actual direction of travel; and generate a three
dimensional sound that, when presented to the user, directs the user to correct the 
actual direction of travel by moving in a particular direction to reach the specified 
waypoint, the three-dimensional sound having a property that is dependent on the 
10 angular deviation between the desired heading and the actual direction of travel.

Abstract: [0091] Techniques are described for automated operations to analyze visual data 
combined from multiple images captured in a room to determine the room 
shape, such as by iteratively refining alignment of the multiple images' visual 
data into a common coordinate system until alignment differences satisfy one or 
more defined criteria, and for subsequently using the determined room shape 
information in further automated manners. The images may be panorama 
images in an equirectangular or other spherical format, and determined room 
shapes for one or more rooms of a building may be fully closed three
dimensional shapes and used to improve navigation of the building (e.g., as part 
of a generated building floor plan) - the automated room shape determination 
may be further performed without having or using information from any 
distance-measuring devices about distances from an image's acquisition 
location to walls or other objects in the surrounding room.

Abstract: The present invention provides a cell search method that can reduce the power consumption of a mobile station. At a first step, averaging is executed over an averaging time T1, and slot boundaries are then detected (step S301). Next, as in conventional examples, a second and a third step are serially executed (steps S303 and S305), and the averaging at the first step continues to be executed concurrently with the operation of the second and third steps (step S309). At step S309, correlation values for slots over an averaging time T1' are averaged, and the averaging is further executed using an already calculated first-step average correlation value, thereby calculating an average correlation value. <IMAGE>

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress vibration of a vehicle caused by torque variations, etc., by control of less quantity of calculation. SOLUTION: A correction value τ' is found by multiplying a rotational speed deviation Δ ω between a corresponding rotational speed ω M', which is obtained by dividing the rotational speed ω M of a motor 36 from a rotating motor speed sensor 52 by the ratio of deceleration id of a speed reducer 38 and corresponds to the rotational speed of driving wheels 42, 44, and the average rotational speed of the driving wheels 42, 44 from rotational speed sensors 54 for the driving wheels, by a gain k which is obtained by taking non-vibration and response into consideration and is represented by the following equation, and a torque command τM#ref is corrected and is inputted to the motor 36.  Since this control is a feedback control, which used the rotating speed ωM of the motor 36 and the rotational speed ω b of the driving wheels 42, 44, the quantity of calculation can be reduced.

The display unit is subdivided into a sign matrix with n*m sign locations, each sign location in turn being formed by an x*y pixel matrix. Each sign location is associated with a particular type of object, so that only particular types of objects can be input and processed at particular sign locations. Sign locations are provided for at least one object of the operand type, of the connection type and of the assignment type. The object types, the momentary operand states and the resulting connection states are stored in an object assignment table, so that logic-forming current paths can be created by inputting in rows and/or columns the operand, connection and assignment objects into their associated sign locations.</PTEXT>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for shading 3-dimensional computer generated images represents each object in the image as a set of polygons. An image plane on which the image is to be displayed is divided into a plurality of rectangular areas. Data defining the location of each polygon is then supplied. The rectangular areas which are required to show the whole of the polygon are then determined.
