Abstract: SISTEMA DE CONVERSãO DE MOTORES DIESEL PARA GáS CQMBUSTìVEL E ENGENHO MECáNICO DENOMINADO DE "FULCRO TRANSFERIDOR" Busca-se o registro de patente de invenção do sistema de conversão de motores diesel para gás combustível, e engenho mecânico denominado de "fulcro transferidor". Motores do ciclo Diesel são os mais empregados em veículos pesados. é comum a conversão de motores do ciclo Otto para Gás Natural, GN. Já a conversão de motores diesel para GN é feita, no Brasil, através de kits diesel/gás, importados. Em outra experiência brasileira de conversão de diesel para GNV, no Rio Grande do Sul, muitas modificações são introduzidas no motor, inclusive o esmerilhamento dos cilindros, o que consome cerca de quatorze dias. No processo proposto, basicamente, todos os elementos referentes ao sistema diesel são removidos, introduzindo-se um sistema de acionamento de um distribuidor, o "fulcro transferidor", um sistema de comando, um corpo de borboleta e um kit gás. Tal sistema é simples, e pode ser realizado, no máximo, em uma semana, sem uso de qualquer peça importada, e permite a reversão para o diesel. Os beneficiários deste processo serão os proprietários de caminhões e ónibus, e os usuários de grupos geradores a diesel.

Title: Encoding, Transmission and Decoding a Stream of Video Data
Inventor: LASSERRE SEBASTIEN
IPC: H04N19/46
Filed: 2012-09-28
Abstract: Transmitting data stream representing a layer including video frames comprises transforming pixel values into coefficients of a type for first frame blocks. A distribution parameter represents coefficients having that type. For a first frame block, a subset of coefficients is encoded. The types associated with encoded coefficients form a first group. Encoded coefficients and type parameters are transmitted. Second frame block pixel values are transformed into coefficients having a type. A subset of that set is encoded. Types associated with the encoded coefficients form a second types group. Encoded coefficients and parameters associated with second group types not in the first are transmitted. Also, a stream transmission comprises transforming pixel values into coefficients of a type, and computing a standard deviation of distribution of the coefficients of that type before encoding a subset. A number of bits representing a ratio between max deviation and a value is determined, and for each first group type, a word of that length is transmitted representing the type standard deviation before transmitting the coefficients. Further, compressing residual image between base and HEVC coded upsampled layers uses DCT to form an enhancement layer. DCT coefficients parametric probabilistic model for first frame is obtained. Some parameters are reused for a second.
