Title: Method and device for avoiding image misinterpretation due to defective pixels in a matrix display
Inventor: MATTHIJS PAUL
IPC: G09G3/20
Filed: 2002-11-29
Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a method for avoiding
misinterpretation of images due to defective pixels present in matrix addressed
electronic displays during display time. This may be very important e.g. in the
medical world. The method comprises obtaining information on the presence
of the defective pixels in the display, and modulating the operation of the
display so as to indicate, emphasise or warn for the presence of said defective
pixels on the actual display having defect pixels, or adapting the image content
of the defective pixels or of pixels in the neighbourhood of the defective pixels
so as to indicate, emphasise or warn for the presence of said defective pixels
in a copy of the displayed image. Such copy may be a hard copy or an
electronic copy. 
     A corresponding device is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides a laser absorption
spectroscopy type gas detecting device having a light
source device, a light receiver, and a concave mirror
which are disposed within a housing, and aiming to be
compact and lightweight. The light source device emits
a laser beam, containing a light component having a
wavelength corresponding to an absorption spectrum of
gas to be detected, to the exterior via a light
transmitting portion. The concave mirror has a
reflecting surface making the laser beam, emitted to
the exterior by the light source device and reflected
by a material body existing in an advancing direction
of the laser beam and having a property of reflecting
light and returning it via the light transmitting
portion, be reflected and condensed at a predetermined
condensing position. The light receiver is disposed at
the condensing position by the concave mirror within
the housing and outputs an electric signal for
detecting whether the gas to be detected exists or not
at a front portion of the material body, in accordance
with the degree of damping of the light component
having the wavelength corresponding to the absorption
spectrum of the gas to be detected, by receiving the
laser beam which returns via the light transmitting
portion.

Abstract: According to the inventive method, call back information is transmitted to a telephone network via an internet terminal using a click-to-dial service. In order to verify the information, the telephone network extracts internet terminal specific information from the access server via the internet. After comparing the call number information which is contained in the call back information and in the internet terminal specific information, the return call is initiated or suppressed. Return calls to subscribers who do not want to be called are thus suppressed.

Abstract: The solution involves placing additional information in the
AgentX error status field. In a preferred embodiment, the
Agent X error status field is a 32-bit field. The lower 5
bits are reserved for the SNMP-defined error codes which
are very general in nature and, therefore, communicate
limited information. Additional error information or
specific error codes are placed in the upper 27 bits (110). As a
result, thousands of very specific error codes can be
communicated by the AgentX packet to the human operator,
thereby allowing the operator to know exactly what is
wrong.. In another preferred embodiment, the internally
defined error code is a 16-bit number - the lower 5 bits
are reserved for SNMP-defined error codes and the next 11
bits are used to store an internal portion of the
additional error information (Fig.5A). In another preferred
embodiment, the error status field can be divided into 3
sections (Fig.5B). The top 5 bits identify the group of error codes
(groups are assigned to teams or to software modules). The
middle 6 bits identify a unique code within that range. The
lowest 5 bits are reserved for the SNMP error code.
