Patent CA-2600482-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RAVEENDRAN VIJAYALAKSHMI R
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2006-03-10
Abstract: Methods and apparatus encode video at a targeted bit rate and yet permit variation of a Quantization Parameter (QP) to encode video of varying complexity with relatively consistent visual quality. Constant bit rate (CBR) encoding is desirable in many applications, such as in transmission or broadcasting environments. However, conventional CBR techniques compromise visual quality. Disclosed techniques permit adaptive variation in a QP value and provide the improved visual encoding available in variable bit rate (VBR) schemes while maintaining enough adherence to a targeted bit rate to be applicable to CBR environments.

Title: Dynamic method for visual rendering of data display and input windows on a computer screen
Inventor: MOLENAAR RICHARD
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2006-03-29
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for visual rendering of data display and input windows on a computer screen. The windows are opened with a browser by a remote Web site user. In response to a request emitted by the user's browser the site returns thereto, via the network whereon they are connected, a generic form of the requested page not including any pre-positioning information. The browser, during a brief display of the generic form of the page, captures the dimensions of the displayed elements, calculates new display widths and redimensions the elements. Thereafter, the browser displays permanently the page whereof the elements have been adjusted to obtain a good visual rendering. The generic form of the page can therefore be defined independently of the user's display means and in particular does not require using a table for positioning the elements to be displayed.

Title: Vehicle fleet security system
Inventor: BLANCHET ROBERT
IPC: B60R25/00
Filed: 2007-10-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a fleet security system comprising a vehicle security unit (VSU) to be installed inside each vehicle, on the sun visor or on the dashboard of the vehicle, and connected to the vehicle using the On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) connector of the vehicle. An authorized user holds the key of the vehicle to be used and an electronic security key. When the authorized user opens the door of the vehicle, the VSU detects a disturbance in the vehicle and wirelessly sends a disturbance event message to a fleet master unit. The authorized user then has a given deactivation time period (such as thirteen seconds) to show its security key to a key reader located inside the vehicle, on the VSU. The security key code is validated by the master unit which will command the VSU to disarm its disturbance detection.

Title: Thermally enhanced solid-state generator
Inventor: BERETICH THOMAS
IPC: H01G9/21
Filed: 2006-10-04
Abstract: A solid state energy conversion device along with its production methods and systems of use is provided. The device in its most basic form consists of two layers, in contact with each other, of dissimilar materials in terms of electron density and configuration, sandwiched between metal layers, which serve as the anode and cathode of the device. One of the inside layers is made of a stabilized mixture of carbon and an ionic material (carbon matrix). The other inner material consists of a stabilized oxide mixed with an ionic material (oxide matrix). This device takes advantage of the built-in potential that forms across the barrier between the carbon matrix and the oxide matrix.  The built-in potential of the device (when not attached to a resistive load at the terminals), which is determined mathematically by integrating the electrostatic forces that have created themselves across the barrier, will rise or fall in direct proportion to the rise and fall of the device temperature (in kelvins). When a load is attached across the terminals of the device, current flows. Depending on the size of the load or the surface area of the device, a reduced current will allow sustained recombination such that the built-in potential and current remains steady overtime. Otherwise, the current curve will fall over time similar to a capacitor device.  Experimentation shows that current rises by the fourth power of the temperature factor.
