IPC: H04N9/73
Filed: 2003-06-19
Abstract: An accurate white balance adjustment process is provided for an
image captured in an environment where different color components,
such as an ambient light and a flash light are mixed. With respect to
image to be captured under a plurality of different types of irradiation
light, such as ambient light, and flash light, the image is captured or
generated in an environment of single light irradiation. The white
balance adjustment according to the parameter set up based on the color
component (color temperature) of each type of irradiation light is carried
out with respect to the image in each environment of the single light
irradiation, so as to synthesize them. Furthermore, with respect to the
moved portion of the subject itself, the present invention is arranged
such that the pixel value is compensated and set up based on adjacent
pixel values of the motionless portion, it becomes possible to generate a
natural image data with smooth changes between pixels.

Title: Footwear item for racket sports
Inventor: GIBERT XAVIER
IPC: A43B13/18
Filed: 2003-09-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a shoe or footwear item comprising a sole consisted of an outer face which is intended to come into contact with the ground and an inner face which is intended to come into contact with the foot of the user. According to the invention, the sole includes a dynamic support element which comprises at least two elastically-deformable elements and which is used to store and release energy when said sole is subjected to later stresses. The dynamic support element is positioned in the sole such that it expands at least partially beneath the area corresponding to the front part of the foot. In this way, a dynamic interaction is produced between the two elastically-deformable elements when the sole is subjected to stresses and two corresponding lateral ground support points are obtained, which are located on either side of the longitudinal axis of the shoe.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved interpolation based on motion compensation. In order to avoid interpolation artefacts in proximity to the image borders, in particular in letterbox type images, each motion compensated image data is subjected to a position validation in order to determine whether or not the motion compensated image data can be used for interpolation purposes. By comparing the position of the motion compensated image data in the referenced images with predefined borderlines, impermissible image data positions can be detected and interpolation based on such image data prevented.

Abstract: Continuous monitoring of analytes, especially glucose, in humans and animals comprises producing a measured signal (z 1) related to a parameter which indicates the concentration of the analyte. The change in concentration with time is derived from this as a desired signal (y 1) using a filter algorithm in a time domain which allows errors in the desired signal to be reduced. The influence of actual measurements on the desired signal is used to derive a weighting factor. A signal fluctuation parameter is derived from actual measurements in a narrow time context and the weighting factor is modified in relation to the actual measurement at any given point in time. An independent claim is included for apparatus for carrying out the method using a sensor (12) which measures the parameter which indicates the concentration of the analyte.
