Patent EP-1772827-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FANG TONG
IPC: G06T17/00
Filed: 2006-10-04
Abstract: A method of designing hearing aid molds is disclosed whereby skeletons, or simplified models, of two ear impressions are used to register the graphical representations of the molds to facilitate the joint design of hearing aid shells. The center points of at least a portion of contour lines on the surface of each ear impression are identified. Then, for each ear impression, by connecting these center points to each adjacent center point, a skeleton that represents a simplified model of an ear impression is generated. Vectors describing the distance and direction from the points of each skeleton to an anatomical feature of each ear impression are identified to obtain a correspondence between the points of each skeleton. Three-dimensional translations and rotations of a feature vector of at least one of the skeletons are determined to achieve alignment of the skeleton of one ear impression with the skeleton of another impression.

Abstract: In an information record/reproduction apparatus 1 including a record portion which records content information of programs (program information), and a reproduction portion which reproduces the recorded program information; the record portion records every program, also recording time information which indicates a time of the recording, a viewing flag which indicates whether or not the program information has been reproduced, and a regular recording title flag which indicates whether or not the program is of a regular recording title, and the reproduction portion executes a process in which the program information recorded at the earliest time is selected from among the program information items of unreproduced regular recording titles on the basis of the recording time information, the viewing flag and the regular recording title flag, so as to reproduce the selected program information. Therefore, the program information of the unviewed regular recording title (of, for example, a continuous drama) can be appropriately reproduced merely by giving the instruction of starting the reproduction.

Abstract: A billing method and server for gathering and processing billing information for Internet telephony connections. Originating and terminating clients and Internet Service Providers ("ISPs") are identified by the server from information contained in digital packets. The digital packets also identify the beginning and ending time of the connection, as well as enhancements chosen for the particular connection, and choices of information to be displayed during the connection. The billing server transmits selected information to each client during the connection, such information including packet routing, packet density, elapsed time of connection, and available and selected enhancements. The server constructs a billing detail for each connection and constructs a billing record for each ISP and client over a specific time period. The server periodically forwards each billing record to its associated ISP.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for session release in a communication system supporting Internet Protocol (IP) communications. In one embodiment, when the MS has lost a bearer connection (i.e., PPP session), the notification is provided by a Packet Data Service Node (PDSN) to the serving Session control Manager (SCM) via IP multicast. If two PPP sessions are active for a given IP communication, and one PPP session is not lost, the PDSN associated with the active PPP session sends a correction message to ignore any notification message sent by the other PDSN. In an alternate embodiment, the Authentication Authorization Accounting (AAA) server uses start and stop accounting requests, received from PDSNs, to determine when to notify the serving SCM to terminate an IP communication.
