Abstract: A video signal converter which converts a video signal to a required form of signal.
The required form of the signal is the display format for displaying the signal. The
input signal is converted to a digital signal and stored in a memory using the output
of a first clock pulse generator synchronized to the horizontal synchronizing signal
of the input signal. The digital signal is read out from the memory using the output
of a second clock pulse generator 6 synchronized to the vertical synchronizing
signal of the input signal from a position specified by the controller. The output
digital signal is then reconverted to an analog signal.

Abstract: The method involves pressing a mat to be formed into board in a hot plate press for a first press phase period of 20-90 s. The mat is over-compressed to a thickness of 0.80-0.98 of the desired final thickness. The pressure is applied to the mat at least for long enough to allow 50-100 g of water to be sprayed on to the outer surfaces of the mat and for the water to reach the point where steam is starting to form. The energy of the water is such that when the plates are moved apart in a second press phase to a distance equal to the final thickness of the board, there is a secondary steam shock effect causing a spontaneous increase of temperature within the mat of at least 15 degrees .

Abstract: This discloses a method and apparatus for
accurately determining a NOx concentration of a
measurement gas that contains H 2 O and /or CO 2, 
without being affected by a dissociation of H 2 O and
/or CO 2.   
In this method and apparatus,
   (1) the NOx-measurement gas containing H 2 O and/or CO 2 
is introduced to travel through a heated flow
channel formed by an oxygen ion conductive solid
ceramic electrolyte body that electrically
controls amount of O 2  from the flow channel,   (2) while said measurement gas travels, a residual
gas including NO and H 2 O and/or CO 2  is formed from
the measurement gas,   (3) said residual gas is flowed to contact a catalytic
electrode to which a negative polarity of a low
voltage that does not dissociate H 2 O and /Or CO 2 
but dissociates NO is applied, so that said
electrode dissociates a NO gas of the residual gas
into N ions and O ions and flows an electric current
through the electrolyte body in proportion to an
amount of the O ions dissociated from said residual
gas at the electrode, and   (4) the NOx concentration in the measurement gas is
determined based on the current.  
The low voltage preferably applied in the above (3)is
about 350-450 mV.

Abstract: Halftoning gray scale image data includes
selection of one of plural dither matrices based on
an analysis of local tonality gradient for each
target pixel. Plural different but reciprocally
compatible dither matrices are defined, and for each
target pixel in the gray scale image data, a local
gradient for tonality is calculated. One of the
dither matrices is selected in accordance with the
calculated gradient, and the target pixel is
thresholded using the selected dither matrix.
Enhanced dithering according to the invention
improves smoothness of gradations present in the
invention, diminishes the "banding" or "contouring"
effect found in natural images, and improves visual
appearance and stability of business graphics,
particularly in cases where a complex image contains
both natural and computer generated business
graphics.

Abstract: Described are compositions and methods which allow for the efficient addition of a defined sequence at the 3'-end of a full-length cDNA in the course of first-strand cDNA synthesis from an mRNA template. A cDNA synthesis primer that is capable of annealing to mRNA is used to prime the first strand synthesis reaction. An oligonucleotide that is linked to the 5'-end of the mRNA serves as a short, extended template such that when the reverse transcriptase enzyme reaches the 5'-end of the mRNA, the enzyme switches templates and proceeds to transcribe through the end of the linked oligonucleotide. As a result, the single-stranded cDNA product which corresponds to the full-length mRNA, will have at the 3'-end a defined sequence which is complementary to the linked oligonucleotide. A conservative element in the oligonucleotide sequence responsible for this reaction can include 3 to 5 guanylic acid residues at the 3'-end of the oligonucleotide. The subject invention provides for the increased synthesis of full-length cDNA from mRNA templates. The full-length cDNA prepared according to the present invention can then be amplified using PCR or cloned using standard procedures.

On réduit les erreurs d'alignement dynamique à l'aide d'un sous-système opto-électrique qui emploie un seul relèvement de tangage et un tangage/lacet commun afocal à la fois pour l'énergie du laser et l'énergie IR. Une fenêtre segmentée pratiquée dans le boîtier du système comprend un motif à grille à interférence électromagnétique circulaire qui réduit significativement la quantité d'interférence électromagnétique décentrée qui pénètre dans les voies optiques.
