Title: Air treatment apparatus
Inventor: TSOI LEUNG-WOON
IPC: A61L9/20
Filed: 2004-08-24
Abstract: An air treatment apparatus incorporates a UV tube 4 for sterilising an airstream that is drawn through the housing 1 by a fan 5, and also includes an ionizer element 6 for ionizing air in the airstream.

Patent CA-2480992-A1 (CA)
Title: Radiation detector
Inventor: NAGAFUNE NOBUYA
IPC: H01L31/04
Filed: 2004-09-09
Abstract: A radiation detector of this invention has an electrically insulating buffer seat disposed on a front surface of a radiation sensitive semiconductor, in a position outside a radiation detection effective area. A common electrode for bias voltage application is formed to cover the buffer seat.      A lead wire for bias voltage supply is connected to a lead wire connection area, located on the buffer seat, of the surface of the common electrode. The buffer seat reduces a shock occurring when the lead wire is connected to the common electrode. As a result, the semiconductor and an intermediate layer are protected from damage which would lead to a lowering of performance. The buffer seat is disposed outside the radiation detection effective area.      Thus, the buffer seat is provided without impairing the radiation detecting function.

Title: Encrypted and watermarked temporal and resolution layering in advanced television
Inventor: DEMOS GARY A
IPC: H04N7/167
Filed: 2002-06-13
Abstract: A method and apparatus for image compression using temporal and resolution layering of compressed image frames, and which provides encryption and watermarking capabilities. In particular, layered compression allows a form of modularized decomposition of an im age that supports flexible encryption and watermarking (1404) techniques. Using layered compression, the base layer an d various internal components of the base layer can be used to encrypt a compressed layered movie data stream. By using such a layered subset of the bits, the entire picture stream can be made unrecognizable by encrypting onl y a small fraction of the bits of the entire stream. A variety of encryption algorithms and strengths can be applied to various portions of the layered stream, including enhancement layers. Encryption algorithms or keys can be changed at each slice boundary as well, to provide greater intertwining of t he encryption and the picture stream. Watermarking (1404) tracks lost or stolen copies byck to the source, so that the nature of theft can be determine d an d so that those involved in a theft can be identified. Watermarking (1404) preferably uses low order bits in certain coefficients in certain frames of a layered compression movie stream to provide reliable isentification while being invisible or nearly invisible to the eye. An enhancement layer can als o have its own unique identifying watermark (1404) structure.
