Abstract: An apparatus and method for monitoring and/or controlling cryogenic cooling by measuring the opacity of the vapor cloud (113) generated from a cryogenic cooling device (112). The opacity is determined by measuring the reduction in intensity of a light beam (127) passed through the vapor cloud (1 13). The opacity measurements are used to control an operating parameter of the system, such as the cooling rate of the cryogenic cooling device (1 12). The opacity measurements may be normalized to compensate for variables, other than temperature of the workpiece (119) and cooling rate, which may affect the opacity of the vapor cloud (113).

Title: Motion estimation and compensation of video object planes for interlaced digital video
Inventor: EIFRIG ROBERT O
IPC: H04N19/593
Filed: 1998-02-25
Abstract: A motion estimation and compensation technique is provided for interlaced digital video such as video object planes (VOPs). Predictor motion vectors for use in differentially encoding a current field coded macroblock (700) are obtained using the median of motion vectors (MV1, MV2, MV3) of surrounding blocks or macroblocks (712, 722, 732).  When a surrounding macroblock (820) is itself interlaced coded, an average motion vector for that macroblock is used, with fractional pixel values being mapped to the half-pixel. When the current block (912) is not interlaced coded but a surrounding block (820) is, the field motion vectors may be used individually or averaged. In a repetitive padding technique for an interlaced coded VOP (1,010), the even (0, 2, ..., 14) and odd (1, 3, ..., 15) lines of the VOP and surrounding block (1,000) are grouped. Within each field (1,210, 1,220), exterior pixels (1,6) are padded by setting them to the value of the nearest boundary pixel (0,6), or to an average of two boundary pixels (0,6;  1,7). The lines are then reordered to provide a single padded reference VOP image.
