Abstract: A laser cutting method that offers a practically
acceptable smooth cut surface without lowering the
cutting speed. In this method, a laser beam machining
device having a variable-curvature mirror assembly is
used. The mirror assembly includes a mirror plate having
a convex back side and a front reflecting surface, and a
piezo-actuator for deforming the mirror plate to change
the curvature of the reflecting surface. A laser beam is
produced from the device so as to be reflected by the
reflecting surface of the mirror plate and condensed at a
focal point. The piezo-actuator is actuated to change
the curvature of the reflecting surface, thereby
oscillating the focal point along the optical axis of the
laser beam at a frequency of between 150 Hz and 300 Hz
and an amplitude of between± 0.5 mm and ± 3 mm.

Abstract: The present invention provides a digital signal
recording apparatus and a recording medium for recording
digital compressed picture information on magnetic tape,
and specifically the structure of the recording apparatus
that suitably records picture trick-play data separately
from recording data for a normal replay and the recording
medium on which data is suitably recorded.

picture data from the input digital compressed picture
signal, trick-play-data generation means (105) for
generating trick-play data while reducing the extracted
picture data, and data disposition circuit (106) for
disposing the trick-play data on tracks in position falling
in line with the trace of the rotary magnetic head scanning
in trick-play mode. The trick-play-data generation means
(105) operates through program processing of a
microprocessor (105). In addition, the recording apparatus
generates trick-play data respectively applied to fast
forward operation and rewind operation and record the data
in predetermined locations on a medium, whereby faster
display update on screen during the trick-play is achieved
and rewind and replay operation can be performed suitably.

Abstract: In an electronic apparatus having a membrane switch and a touch panel switch
at its entry section, the touch panel switch formed to be elastic is laid over the
membrane switch. This two-layered structure provides users with two
operations: a "finger-sliding" and a "finger-depressing." When a user slides the
finger on the surface of the touch panel switch, the sliding force activates the
touch panel switch. This "finger-sliding" is used for selecting a desired item.
On the other hand, when the user depresses down on the surface of the touch
panel switch, the depression force through the touch panel switch activates the
underlying membrane switch. This "finger-depressing" is used for numeric or
symbolic information entry. It is thus possible to realize an electronic
apparatus offering an excellent compromise between an ease of operation and a
wide display section.

Abstract: A digital video decoding system receives packetized video data representing
programs conveyed on a plurality of video channels. The system includes a plurality
of buffers (30, 50) for storing encoded video data representing images of video
programs conveyed on a corresponding plurality of video channels. An individual
buffer, corresponding to an individual video channel, stores sufficient encoded video
data to prevent an underflow condition following switching to decode a program
conveyed on the individual video channel. A processor (60) initiates switching to
decode a program conveyed on a selected one of the plurality of video channels in
response to a user channel selection input (70). A decoder (110) decodes encoded
video data received from one of the plurality of buffers corresponding to the program
conveyed on the selected video channel as determined by switching initiated by the
processor. The decoder also predicts (130) a next channel to be selected by a user
based on, (a) predetermined user channel and program preference criteria, (b)
predetermined user channel navigation patterns, or (c) user data entry device sensory
data.
