Patent CA-2625607-A1 (CA)
Title: Text processor
Inventor: WALKER RANDALL C
IPC: G06F3/0485
Filed: 1999-02-02
Abstract: A text enhancement method and apparatus for the presentation of text for improved human reading. The method includes extracting text specific attributes from machine readable text and varying the text presentation in accordance with the attributes. The preferred embodiment of the method: extracts parts of speech and punctuation from a sentence, applies folding rules which use the parts of speech to determine folding points, and presents text segments each on a new line and having a determined horizontal displacement based on the text specific attributes. One method displays text over bent curves having a shape based on text content. Another method includes displaying relative text position within a hierarchy using alternating vertically and horizontally tiled planes. Another method supports reading text segments across opposed pages without waiting for paging. Yet another method displays text to allow reading from bottom to top as though from front to back. Still another method displays words in colors reflecting the relationships between the words and the larger text segments of which they are apart.

Abstract: A secure package (1) for drugs, blocks access to the drugs such that, to gain access to the drugs, the user must execute two simultaneous actions. When one of the actions is interrupted, access is rendered impossible. The secure package includes a case (2), a blister (3), and an elastic biasing system (4). The blister (3) is a cellular card pack for dispensing pills. The blister (3) is mobile and can be moved in translation in the case (2) by being slid on its base wall (16). Thus, the blister can take up two positions, namely an initial rest position, wherein the position of the cells (10) does not correspond to holes (19) formed in the base wall (16) and a so-called active position, wherein the cells (10) are in a position corresponding to the holes (19) in the base wall (16).

Abstract: Tissue products are disclosed containing an additive composition. The additive composition, for instance, comprises an aqueous dispersion containing an olefin polymer, an ethylene-carboxylic acid copolymer, or mixtures thereof.  The olefin polymer may comprise an interpolymer of ethylene and octene, while the ethylene-carboxylic acid copolymer may comprise ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer. The additive composition may also contain a dispersing agent, such as a fatty acid. The additive composition may be incorporated into the tissue web by being combined with the fibers that are used to form the web.  Alternatively, the additive composition may be topically applied to the web after the web has been formed. For instance, in one embodiment, the additive composition may be applied to the web as a creping adhesive during a creping operation. The additive composition may improve the strength of the tissue web without substantially affecting the perceived softness of the web in an adverse manner.

Title: Wind powered charging system for electric vehicles
Inventor: BURTCH JOHN CHRISTOPHER
IPC: F03D9/11
Filed: 2008-09-10
Abstract: This invention uses the rushing air from the forward motion of a vehicle to turn five wind turbines and their generators. Four small turbines and generators are located just behind the front grill and utilize the air entering into the engine compartment to spin the turbines and then the generators. The fifth and larger turbine and generator are located in the rear of the vehicle where air, from four intake vents on the outside of the vehicle, is piped back and directed across the blades of the turbine. Each turbine has a gearbox to increase the rotational speed of the attached generator. The electrical current thus produced from the generators passes through regulators and is used to recharge the storage batteries of the electric vehicle as it travels forward down the road.

Title: Method and apparatus for accelerated elastic registration of multiple scans of internal properties of a body
Inventor: DANDEKAR OMKAR
IPC: G06K9/00
Filed: 2006-12-19
Abstract: Techniques for accelerated elastic registration include receiving reference scan data and floating scan data (320), and a first transformation for mapping coordinates of scan elements from the first scan to coordinates of scan elements in the second scan. A subset of contiguous scan elements is determined. At least one of several enhancements is implemented. In one enhancement cubic spline interpolation is nested by dimensions within a subset. In another enhancement, a local joint histogram of mutual information based on the reference scan data and the floating scan data for the subset is determined and subtracted from an overall joint histogram to determine a remainder joint histogram. Each subset is then transformed (330), used to compute an updated local histogram, and added to the remainder joint histogram to produce an updated joint histogram. In another enhancement, a measure of similarity other than non- niormalized mutual information is derived from the updated joint histogram.

Filed: 2007-03-08
Abstract: An apparatus and method for the pelletization of waxes, wax-like and other materials having a sharp melt point include a vessel for forming the wax into a hot molten material. A heat exchanger then cools the molten wax to a temperature just above its melt temperature. The cooled liquid wax is fed to an extruder which further reduces the temperature and mixes the liquid wax into a thoroughly mixed extrudable solid wax. The solid wax is then extruded through die orifices of a die plate into a cutting chamber, and a rotary cutter cooperating with the die face of the die plate cuts the extruded solid wax strands into pellets. The die plate, cutting chamber and rotary cutter can have the same structure as an underwater pelletizer, but operating without water or liquid as a dry face pelletizer. The thus formed wax pellets drop out of the cutting chamber by gravity through an opening in the bottom thereof.

Title: Image encoding method and decoding method, apparatuses therefor, programs therefor, and storage media for storing the programs
Inventor: KITAHARA MASAKI
IPC: H04N19/50

Abstract: One base point of view is selected from the whole multipoint-of-view image. When epipolar geometric constraint of the images of all the other cameras than the camera of the base point of view is considered, likely global parallax information is determined and encoded. Meanwhile when epipolar geometric constraint of the images of all the other cameras than the image of each of the cameras except for the camera of the base point of view is considered with reference to the global parallax information and the camera parameters, likely base parallax information is created. To present information on the parallax between the image of the each camera and an encoded reference point-of-view image used for parallax compensation, correction parallax information for correcting the base parallax information is determined and encoded. By using the parallax information obtained by correcting base parallax information with the correction parallax information, the image of the camera is encoded. Such an image encoding method is provided.
