Abstract: Disclosed is an automated wig manufacturing system. A two-dimensional thin wig base (11) of fabric material woven by resin fiber, for example, is supplied to above a conveyor table (21), whereas an artificial hair (30) is supplied to the underside of the base. The base is subjected to tensioning rollers (23) so that it is placed on the table in a stretched condition. A reciprocating needle (41) penetrates the stretched base to engage the artificial hair, which is pulled above to thereby transplanted on the base. The hair transplanting operation in such a manner is repeated at different points, as the table is moved in predetermined directions(s) with a predetermined pitch. After the hair transplanting operation is completed, the base is released from being stretched, thereby allowing shrinkage of the base due to its material shrinkability. The base with the artificial hairs transplanted is then formed into a three-dimensional configuration to provide fittability to a human head.

Abstract: A compression technique, for use in a network environment, compresses transform data to improve transmission rates in low bandwidth applications. The source data is decomposed into transform data that consists of spatially related coefficients. In a client-server environment, a client issues a request, which defines a block of the coefficients and at least one quantization value, for source data. In response to the client request, the server extracts transform data defined by the request. The transform data is quantized, in accordance with the quantization value, and is compressed to generate compressed data. The server transfers the compressed data to the client. The client decompresses the compressed data to obtain quantized data, and de-quantizes the quantized data to recover the transform data. The client then reconstructs the original source data from the transform data. Techniques for transmitting to the client incremental data, for use in conjunction with cached data, is disclosed. The use of the compression techniques for images in a medical informatics system is also disclosed.
