Patent EP-2458865-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SEKIGUCHI SHUNICHI
IPC: H04N19/50
Filed: 2002-06-28
Abstract: An input image signal 101 is divided into MC block units and, when coding processing is performed in these divided units, a motion compensation section 107 generates a motion-compensated prediction image 106a by detecting movement amounts in predetermined MC block units, a smoothing filter section 124 performs, with respect to the prediction image 106a, smoothing of pixels located at the boundaries of adjoining MC blocks on the basis of predetermined evaluation criteria, and a prediction residual signal 108, which is obtained from the difference between the prediction image 106b obtained by the smoothing, and the input image (input image signal 101), is encoded. Accordingly, it is possible to use relatively straightforward computation to perform processing, with respect to a prediction frame image generated by block-unit motion-compensated interframe prediction (MC), to adaptively smooth a discontinuous waveform generated between MC blocks of the prediction frame image, whereby the efficiency of low bit rate coding that employs interframe MC is improved.

Abstract: An apparatus and method provide logic for processing information. In one implementation, an apparatus includes a display unit configured to display a first stereoscopic image. The first stereoscopic image includes a first and a second content, which may be disposed at corresponding display positions in a depth direction, and at least a portion of the first content appears to overlap at least a portion of the second content. A position-changing unit is configured to modify the display positions of the first and second content, in response to the apparent overlap. A control unit is configured to generate a signal to display, a second stereoscopic image that includes the first and second content disposed at the modified display positions. The display unit is further configured to display the second stereoscopic image such that the second stereoscopic image reduces the apparent overlap between the first and second content.

Abstract: A gas meter comprises a conduit for passage of a gas flow, in use; an ioniser arranged to ionise the gas flow in the conduit, in use; a modulating electrode structure downstream of the ioniser arranged for modulating the ion distribution in the ionised gas flow; and at least a first detecting electrode structure downstream of the modulating electrode structure arranged for detecting the modulated ion distribution in the ionised gas flow. The modulating electrode structure comprises an upstream electrode and a downstream electrode, and a respective modulating potential is applied, in use, to each electrode to modulate the ion distribution in the ionised gas flow. The modulating potential applied to the downstream electrode is of the opposite polarity to the modulating potential applied to the upstream electrode and of a magnitude selected such that, downstream of the modulating electrode structure, the electric field due to the upstream electrode is cancelled by the electric field due to the downstream electrode.

Abstract: A rotary web-offset printing press is disclosed. It includes a plate cylinder defining a plurality of individual printing plate positions thereon and apparatus for removing printing plates from said individual printing plate positions or, for locating printing plates in said individual printing plate positions. The apparatus includes a discrete vacuum circuit associated with each individual printing plate position so that a negative pressure is generated within a vacuum circuit associated with an individual printing plate position when that vacuum circuit is closed by the presence of a printing plate in that individual printing plate position, wherein the plate cylinder is configured so that closure of a vacuum circuit and generation of a negative pressure is prevented when no printing plate is present in an individual printing plate position on the plate cylinder, the press including means for detecting the generation of negative pressure in each vacuum circuit and for providing information relating to the outcome of that detection to an operator to enable the presence of a printing plate in each individual printing plate position to be determined.

IPC: F03D7/02

Abstract: A system for a wind turbine rotor blade comprising a pitch system comprising a bearing attached to a wind turbine hub and arranged to be attachable to a wind turbine rotor blade. Two or more pitch gears, preferably ring gears, are coupled to the bearing, the pitch gears being separated along the axis of rotation of the bearing. An actuator, such as an electric or hydraulic motor, is arranged to exert a torque on the two or more pitch gears via one or more pinions coupled to the actuator for causing rotation of a rotor blade with the bearing. Having two or more pitch gears engaging with a common pinion, or each engaged with separate pinions, to rotate the bearing may reduce the weight of the pitch gear, since two gears separated along the axis of rotation of the bearing can be made lighter than a single ring gear whilst covering the same length along the bearing axis.

Abstract: A communication network device facilitates communication between devices and/or applications in a network without requiring each device to register with every other device or application. The communication network device may generate and assign a unique identifier to each device or application upon registration and store a role of the device or application (e.g., sender or receiver or both) in addition to capability and compatibility information. The communication network device may then dynamically broker and manage communications from each of the devices or applications to other devices and applications in real-time. Using a communication network device, communications may be directed to devices or applications without requiring a sending device to know of the recipient's network address. Additionally, the communication network device allows for the direct targeting of communications to specific applications. Accordingly, in some arrangements, two applications running on the same device may receive different communications from another device or application.

Abstract: The method involves selecting a parametric function base according to level of minimum continuity of selected order, and selecting a neighborhood of a predetermined crossing point for a predetermined crossing point. A position of control points of a sub-assembly associated with a geometric surface crossing point in the neighborhood is determined based on fixed values of part of osculating conditions of the predetermined crossing point. The position of geometric surface points in the neighborhood is determined according to the position of the control points associated with each crossing point. An independent claim is also included for a system for modeling a geometric surface to conception of a piece.
