Inventor: BANG WON-CHUL
IPC: G06F3/02
Filed: 2005-04-29
Abstract: An input device includes a sensor configured to generate a signal related to a change in inertia around at least one axis of the input device in response to a contacting of the input device. A processor is configured to receive the signal from the sensor to determine whether the change in inertia around the at least one axis of the input device corresponds to a tapping of the input device. The processor is further configured to identify a contacted region of the input device based on a direction of the change in inertia around the at least one axis of the input device when the change in inertia corresponds to a tapping of the input device.

Abstract: Method of three-dimensional image reconstruction and transmission electron microscope capable of producing three-dimensional images with better image quality than heretofore are offered. When a TEM image is taken at each tilt angle of a specimen, the amount of defocus Δf is switched to plural amounts Δf 1 , Δf 2 , and Δf 3  in turn. These amounts of defocus have been previously found and are stored in a defocus amount storage circuit. When a three-dimensional image is reconstructed, image data stored in the image memory is sent to a CRT. TEM images acquired with the amounts Δf 1 , Δf 2 , and Δf 3  are displayed on the CRT. One optimum TEM image is selected according to operator's visual judgment at each tilt angle of the specimen. A three-dimensional image reconstruction circuit reconstructs a three-dimensional image based on the selected TEM images.

Abstract: A method for creating mailpieces from a single web of printed material. The web of printed material includes a continuous web having a width and a length, the length comprised of a series of attached sheets. The series of attached sheets is comprised of envelope sheets and content pages. The content pages are rectangular in shape and may be oriented relative to the envelope sheets in a number of different configurations. In some configurations, two sets of content pages and/or envelope sheets can be printed across the width of the web. The method starts with cutting consecutive attached sheets into separated sheets. The content pages belonging to a same mailpiece are accumulated together. The separated envelope sheet is transported, bypassing the accumulating and turning steps. The accumulated and turned content pages are then merged with the envelope sheet, and the envelope sheet is folded and closed around the accumulated content pages to form a finished enclosing envelope.

Abstract: An inflation valve for use with an inflatable emergency evacuation slide includes a thermally actuated gas relief valve (60) having an exhaust port (70) the effective size of which increases with increasing temperature. The exhaust port is metered by a valve member (64). The valve member position is controlled by a thermal actuator (66) that lengthens with increasing temperature. At high ambient temperatures, the valve member moves to uncover the exhaust port thereby increasing the effective size of the port so that a large percentage of the inflation gas is vented. At low ambient temperatures the valve member moves to cover the exhaust port, thereby decreasing effective size of the exhaust port so that little or no inflation gas is vented.
