Inventor: YAMADA YUKINORI
IPC: G01S13/931
Filed: 1996-12-16
Abstract: A scan-type radar apparatus for a vehicle (52)
which determines with a high level of accuracy whether an
object (54) detected by the radar exists in the lane in
which the radar equipped vehicle (52) is moving while the
radar equipped vehicle (52) is moving in a curve. A scan-type
radar detects objects (54) existing in a detectable
range. A center direction is assumed which indicates a
center of each of the objects (54) detected by the scan-type
radar with respect to the vehicle (52) based on a
distance between the vehicle and each of the objects and a
turning radius of the vehicle. A vehicle moving lane area
is set within the detectable range. The vehicle moving
lane area, which corresponds to a vehicle moving lane in
which the vehicle (52) is moving, extends on either side
of the center direction with a predetermined angle range.
An extent of the vehicle moving lane area is corrected so
that an inner area of the vehicle moving lane area is
increased when the vehicle (52) is moving along a curve,
the inner area being a portion of the vehicle moving lane
area located on an inner side of the curve with respect to
the center direction.

Abstract: The present invention provide a system and method for displaying on
a display device (20) connectable to the system a visual representation
of a physical environment, the system having display means (30) for
displaying objects in the physical environment including a data
management object, one or more data objects representing data sources,
and one or more output objects representing means through which data from
a data source can be presented to a user, a user-operated device (50)
being connectable to the system to allow a user to interact with the
objects. The system further comprises data receiving means (70),
responsive to signals from the user-operated device (50) indicating user
association of one or more data objects with the data management object,
to access the data represented by the one or more associated data
objects. Additionally, processing means (90) are provided for performing
selected processing operations on the retrieved data, and an output means
(100) is employed to pass the data processed by the processing means to a
selected output object. 
     The use of the data management object simplifies the user's
interactions with and access to data, and provides a common mechanism for
connecting any input data to any output objects, optionally processing
that data on the way. It also provides a mechanism for performing
relational database queries in a vastly simplified manner adhering to a
concrete, accessible, real-world metaphor.

Abstract: A substantially planar jointed multi-layer industrial
fabric, assembled from at least one segment comprising at least
one woven or nonwoven ply, in which the joints utilize jointing
yarns or formed structures. The jointing yarns or formed
structures are placed at selected locations, such as the
lateral edges, of at least one planar surface of a ply of the
at least one, or first, fabric segment, and interlock in mating
engagement with corresponding jointing yarns or formed
structures either in at least one surface of a ply of a second
segment, or in another location on the first fabric segment,
to provide an integral joint. The joints are comprised of
shaped yarns and formed structures which in any combination
form mating engagements substantially within the plane of the
fabric, such as in hook-and-loop or slot-and-rib type joints,
and the like. The fabric is assembled by engaging and
interlocking the jointing yarns or formed structures, for
example by overlapping the segments, in either a spiral winding
process or piecewise fashion, so that the jointing yarns or
structures provided in the segment ply are engaged and
interlocked. Further secondary processing of the joint is not
required. The at least one segment may be a single continuous
strip, a plurality of strips, or panels, into which the
jointing structures have been incorporated.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for automatically converting documents
from a first hypertext format that supports multi-layered backgrounds to a second
hypertext format that does not support multi-layered backgrounds, such as HyperText
Markup Language (HTML). According to the method, a target file is generated that
stores all non-background elements of the document in the second hypertext format.
A mechanism that reads the first hypertext format is used to display a current page of
the document. A screen dump is made of the displayed page after removing or hiding
the non-background elements. This process is repeated for all of the pages of the
document. References to the graphics files generated by the screen dumps are
embedded in the target file. The references cause the background elements of a page
to be displayed behind non-background elements of the page when the document is
displayed based upon the target file by a mechanism that reads the second hypertext
format.

Abstract: In order to hide an authentication code or signature (101, 402, 504) in an electric
signal (100, 400, 401), which consists of data parts with a certain value, certain
data parts are selected from the electric signal for processing on the basis of the
contents of the authentication code. The value of each data part selected for
processing is re-determined by a filter (200, 403, 504), which uses certain other
predetermined data parts of the electric signal as input data. For detecting the
authentication coding, the signal is filtered with the same filter (403) and those
data parts (406) which have their value unchanged after the second filtering are
marked. The electric signal can be a file (particularly an image file) or a
temporally continuous signal. The device for implementing the method
comprises a memory (501, 502) for saving the electric signal and a processing
unit (500) for reading the data from the memory and for changing the value of
its data parts. The device also comprises a filter (503), which uses the other data
parts of the signal as input data and which determines the new value of the data
parts selected for processing. The device can interact with the user (506, 507) or
it can be a sealed authentication coding circuit.
