Abstract: A personal on-demand audio entertainment system with a base unit attached to a personal computer or other source, a headphone unit and a remote control unit. The base unit transmits digital audio content to the headphone unit using infrared, radio frequency, magnetic or electromagnetic coupling. These data are stored in solid-state memory within the headphone unit. In the headphone unit, the stored digital audio content is converted to analog audio signals, amplified and sent to transducers for conversion to audio signal for the listener during playback. The system is designed such that playback may occur during the downloading process. The remote control unit also uses infrared, radio frequency, magnetic or electromagnetic coupling for communication to the headphone unit. This communication is made using a different channel and does not interfere with the audio data downloading. The remote control unit has a display and allows for control of player functions and modification of audio characteristics such as volume, bass, treble, balance, etc.

Abstract: A communication interface involves a processor that communicates to expansion modules in order to read and write discrete input/output, analog input/output, intelligent module control, and expansion module status. The expansion modules can be application specific integrated circuits (ASIC), each having a state machine architecture that responds appropriately to the input/output expansion bus signals. The ASIC can include error detection using the first byte of messages from the controller. Thus, the ASIC detects when an erroneous message from the controller has been communicated and transmits a message to expansion modules that their output states not be changed in response to the message from the controller.

Abstract: A method of forming an electrode for a plasma arc torch is disclosed, and wherein the electrode comprises a copper holder defining an opening therein. An emissive element is secured to a cavity formed in a relatively non-emissive separator having a solid rear wall at one end thereof. The emissive element and separator are positioned within the opening defined by the copper holder such that the emissive element is surrounded by the separator and the copper holder. In this regard, the emissive element is prevented from movement along the longitudinal axis of the torch relative to the separator during a post-assembly heating step. In addition, the emissive element is not exposed to the atmosphere during the heating step, which allows a greater bond between the emissive element and the separator.

Abstract: There is described an image inputting apparatus (3) for
inputting a radiation image that is formed on a radiation
sensitive panel (4) by projecting radial rays penetrated through
a subject (M). The apparatus includes a detector (10) to detect the
radiation image projected onto the radiation sensitive panel (4)
and a sensitivity compensating section (10a,17) to automatically find
a sensitivity compensation value, which is employed for
compensating for a sensitivity of the detector (10) so that a
signal value of the radiation image detected by the detector (10)
is substantially equal to a predetermined ideal value when a
predetermined dose of the radial rays is irradiated onto the
radiation sensitive panel (4). The apparatus also includes a
storage section to store the predetermined ideal value of the
signal value. The sensitivity compensating section finds an
optimum sensitivity-offset value, which makes the signal
value of the radiation image equal to the predetermined ideal
value stored in the storage section.
