Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a hand gesture
recognizing device which can correctly recognize hand gestures
at high speed without requiring users to be equipped with some
tools. A gesture of a user is stereoscopically filmed by a
photographing device 1 and then stored in an image storage device
2. A feature image extracting device 3 transforms colors of the
stereoscopic image data read from the image storage device 2 in
accordance with color transformation tables created by a color
transformation table creating device 13, and disassembles and
outputs the feature image of the user in corresponding channels.
A spatial position calculating device 4 calculates spatial
positions of feature parts of the user by utilizing parallax of
the feature image outputted from the feature image extracting
device 4. A region dividing device 5 defines the space around
the user with spatial region codes. A hand gesture detecting
device 6 detects how the hands of the user move in relation to
the spatial region codes. A category is detected first on the
basis of the detected hand gesture, and then a sign language word
in that category is specified.

intermediate portion thereof and being elastically deformable. A portion of
the first terminal (35) being inserted and soldered to a circuit substrate (33) has

Abstract: An electrical connection box containing at least one generally
planar base insulative plate having two flat surfaces. There is at
least one busbar on or adjacent the first surface which is capable
of electrical contact with a plurality of insulated wires. The
busbar has one or more pressure connection sections which include
a pair of blades which cut through the insulation on the wires and
make electrical contact therewith. The insulated wires are
straight, parallel to each other, and are located in the wire
concentration section which is on or adjacent the second surface of
the base insulative plate. The wire concentration section and the
pressure connection section are in register with each other and
openings are provided in the base insulative plate through which
the blades can project. Thus, when pressure is exerted on the
blades or on the insulated wires, the blades cut through the
insulation on the wires, forming an electrical contact between the
busbar and the wires in a single operation. It is unnecessary to
insert the wires one at a time. This provides increased ease of
assembly, reduces costs, and provides secure and reliable
connections.

Title: Method and apparatus for moving a carriage assembly from an initial position to a target position
Inventor: GETREUER KURT WALTER
IPC: G11B17/22
Filed: 1996-01-25
Abstract: A method for moving a carriage assembly from an initial position to a target
position relative to a storage medium rotating at a circumferential velocity. The method
includes the steps of determining a first radial distance between the initial position and
a center of the storage medium, determining a second radial distance between the
target position and the center of the storage medium, determining a circumferential
distance between the initial position and the target position, determining an initial
circumferential velocity of the storage medium, calculating a velocity trajectory relative
to the first radial distance, the second radial distance, the circumferential distance, and
the initial circumferential velocity, and moving the carriage assembly from the initial
position to the target position substantially at the velocity trajectory. The velocity
trajectory is calculated such that the carriage assembly will arrive radially and
circumferentially at the target position at substantially the same time. Additionally, a
target circumferential velocity may be determined, the rotation of the storage medium
may be changed from the initial circumferential velocity to the target circumferential
velocity, and the velocity trajectory is further related to the target circumferential velocity.

Abstract: A mobile code plate 6 manufactured by plastic injection
molding etc. encodes input light by the light path alteration
function of optical bending portions 61a etc. This is converted into
output optical flux Lo1 by perpendicular incidence and optical
transmission at the position of input of input optical flux Li1 and is
then input to photodetector element C8. Since optical bending
portion 61a arrives at the input position of input optical flux Li2,
bent output optical flux Lo2 is generated and is likewise input to
photodetector element C8. As mobile code plate 6 rotates, optical
bending portion 62a indicated by the broken line arrives at the
input position of input optical flux Li1; when optical bending portion
61a leaves the input position of input optical flux Li2, output optical
fluxes Lo3 and Lo4 are input to photodetector element C8* with the
result that an inverted signal is obtained.
