Inventor: CHATENEVER DAVID
IPC: G02B23/26
Filed: 2003-04-30
Abstract: A method and apparatus where the output from a high intensity
light source (16) is controlled so that whenever the output
is not directed at a surface (14), the light source (16)
output intensity is automatically reduced to a safe level. This
is achieved by monitoring the reflected light (24) from a surface
(14) and when this reflection indicates that the light
source (16) is not directed at a surface (14), the light intensity
is reduced to a safe level.

Abstract: A position adjusting system (54) for adjusting the position of a seat in a
vehicle and preventing movement of the seat resulting from external forces acting on
the seat. The system includes a seat track fixable to the vehicle, a motor actuator,
and a gear train (56,58,60,34) engaged with the motor actuator. The gear train is adapted to
cooperate with the seat track to convert movement of the motor actuator into
movement of the seat track and the seat. A non-reversing clutch mechanism (68) is
coupled with the gear train and adapted to transfer torque from the motor actuator
through the gear train to move the seat upon actuation of the motor actuator but
locking upon torque being applied through the seat track, thereby preventing the
external forces acting on the seat from moving the seat relative to the vehicle.

Abstract: A Bluetooth master unit (20) polls a slave unit to enable the slave to resynchronize to
the master, by sending POLL packets with sufficient frequency to maintain a
connection to the slave, and in the intervals between such packets, sending NULL
packets with sufficient frequency to maintain synchronization of the slave. By
replacing some POLL packets with NULL packets, since the slave does not have to
respond to a NULL packet, it can save some power, and there is reduced interference
on other piconets. The frequency of the remaining POLL packets is set according to a
Link Supervision Timeout (to avoid this timer expiring and thus keep the Bluetooth
Link to the slave alive) and according to the time since the master received the last
packet from the slave.

Abstract: When an amount of stored media data exceeds a
threshold, the media reception buffer 209 outputs a signal
indicating the fact to the radio control section 205.
When the radio control section 205 receives a signal
indicating that the amount of media data has exceeded
the threshold from the media reception buffer 209, the
radio control section 205 instructs the initial buffering
condition decision section 207 to decrease the data
reception rate. The media reception rate decision
section 208 decides the media-specific rate and outputs
it to the initial buffering condition decision section
207. The initial buffering condition decision section
207 decides the buffering time and rate based on the
media-specific rate input from the media reception rate
decision section 208. This makes it possible to shorten
the time required to store data in the storage section
before starting data play back and shorten the time after
requesting the server to send data until the data is played
back.
