Abstract: A video encoding method and apparatus is shown
wherein image information is represented as a
plurality of pixels, the pixels are organized into
blocks, pixels transposition is performed on image
information at the boundaries of the blocks, the
blocks are transform coded and quantized. Pixel
transposition involves transposition of alternate
pixels at the boundaries of blocks with pixels of
neighboring blocks found in a pre-determined
direction. The pre-determined direction may be fixed
by a system or may be applied on an image by image
basis. In the event that the pre-determined direction
is not established by a system, a pixel transposition
circuit includes a transposition keyword in the output
bit stream which is used by a decoded to determine the
direction of pixel transposition.

Abstract: An air-driven rotating window assembly (10) mountable to one side of a viewing
window (16). The rotating window (12) assembly faces toward the working or weather exposed area
and slings off, by centrifugal force, any debris that contacts the rotating window (12) so as to
maintain clear visibility through a portion of the viewing window over which the rotating
window extends. The rotating window assembly (12) includes a support base (14) and a rotating
window rotatably mounted to the support base. The rotating window has an annular frame (17)
with propulsion passages (19) therein that receive a flow of pressurized gas substantially
tangentially to the frame. The propulsion passages redirect the gas to generate a propulsive
force on the frame to spin the rotating window relative to the support base. The gas exits the
annular frame (17) through a restricted gap between the support base and the rotating window so
as to form an air barrier that prevents debris from passing through the gap.
