Patent EP-1622387-A3 (EP)
Inventor: OTSUKA TATSUSHI
IPC: G06T7/20
Filed: 2004-12-16
Abstract: There is provided a motion estimation and compensation device 10 that avoids discrepancies in chrominance components which could be introduced in the process of motion vector estimation. The device 10 has a motion vector estimator 11 for finding motion vectors in given interlace-scanning chrominance-subsampled video signals. The estimator 11 compares each candidate block B0 to B3 in a reference picture with a target block B in an original picture by using a sum of absolute differences (SAD) in luminance as similarity metric, chooses a best matching candidate block that minimizes the SAD, and determines its displacement relative to the target block. In this process, the estimator 11 gives the SAD of each candidate block B0 to B3 an offset determined from the vertical component of a corresponding motion vector, so as to avoid chrominance discrepancies. A motion compensator 12 then produces a predicted picture using such motion vectors and calculates prediction error by subtracting the predicted picture from the original picture.

Title: Apparatus and method for accumulating sheets
Inventor: WRIGHT WILLIAM J
IPC: B65H31/00
Filed: 2004-06-24
Abstract: An accumulator device with a downward angled input transport (42). Downstream, an accumulating receptacle (44,47) receives sheets. The accumulating receptacle has an upper guide (47) and a lower guide (44) forming a horizontal accumulating channel. Dump rollers (43) act as a stop during sheet accumulation, and as a transport for removing completed accumulations from the sheet accumulating device. A rear portion of sheets (1) buckle downward into a trap arrangement (45) below the input rollers (41). Preferably, the upper guide of the accumulating channel comprises a continuously rotating belt (47) to urge accumulating sheets against the dump rollers (43). Also, a positive air device (49) may be used to assist in the buckling of the rear portion of the sheets. To assist in handling large collations, when a sheet arrives at the dump rollers (43) they advance by a small predetermined incremental displacement slightly shingling the sheets (1) to maintain positive control for later reliable discharge.

Abstract: A flow regulator (38) includes a body (39) with an aperture (42) into which an inlet (44) and an outlet (46) open. A pin (48) has a bore extending therein and communicating with the outlet. A first aperture (54), a second aperture (56) and a bypass orifice (58) are spaced longitudinally along the pin and extend there through opening into the bore. A valve member (62) is slideably located around the pin and is biased by a spring (66) into a first position along the pin in which the valve member closes the first aperture while opening the second aperture. When a pressure differential between the inlet (44) and outlet exceeds a first level, the valve member (62) moves away from the first position and begins covering the second aperture. Thereafter continuing increase of the pressure differential above a greater second level results in the valve member (62) moving into a second position at which both the first and second apertures are closed. However in the second position, a secondary flow path exists between the inlet (44) and the outlet through the bypass orifice (58). Further increase of the pressure differential significantly above the second level causes the valve member (62) to move into a pressure relief position in which the first aperture is open while the second aperture remains closed.

Abstract: A radiation source generates short-wavelength radiation, such as extreme ultraviolet radiation, for use in lithography. Rotating electrodes are provided which dip into respective baths of liquid metal, for example, tin. An electrical discharge is produced between the electrodes to generate the radiation. Holes are provided in the electrodes and/or in a metal shielding plate around the electrodes to enable better pumping down to low pressure in the vicinity of the discharge to improve the conversion efficiency of the source. The holes in the electrodes improve cooling of the electrodes by causing stirring of the liquid metal, and by improving the thermal and electrical contact between the electrodes and the liquid metal. Improved electrical contact also reduces the time-constant of the discharge circuit, thereby further improving the conversion efficiency of the source.

The input device comprises a motion detecting means for detecting a motion of the input device. The information processing apparatus calculates a tilt value indicating a tilt of the input device using a result of detection by the motion detecting means. It is determined whether or not the pointing position can be calculated based on the image captured by the image capturing means. When it is determined that the pointing position cannot be calculated, the calculated tilt value is compared with a predetermined reference value. The user is notified of information about the tilt of the input device, depending on a result of the comparison.
