Patent EP-1039739-A3 (EP)
Inventor: JOICHI NORIO
IPC: H04N1/053
Filed: 2000-03-20
Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a writing device for
writing an image on the basis of image data thereof; a
controller for controlling a writing position in a primary
scanning direction by the writing device; a conveying device
for conveying a recording material; and a position detecting
sensor for detecting an edge of the recording material, which
is conveyed by the conveying device in the primary scanning
direction as an absolute position. The controller determines
the writing position in the primary scanning direction by the
writing device on the basis of a position of the edge of the
recording material in the primary scanning direction detected
by the position detecting sensor, and controls the writing
position of the writing device in the primary scanning
direction.

Abstract: An optical device that includes a filter element which affects a beam incident thereon by
shifting it is provided with a lens, wherein a distance between the lens end face and the
filter is different than the distance between the lens end face and the input waveguide. By

Abstract: A system and method for utilizing internet protocol (IP) mobility messages
and authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) messages in a
communication system is presented. The communication system comprises a data
network coupled to a visited network, a home network, and a service broker, where
the visited network and the home network are each coupled to an access node. A
serving mobility manager (SMM), which is located in the visited network, receives a
user request for information via the access node. A local AAA, which is coupled to
the SMM and located in the visited network, queries the service broker to determine
the user's home network. The service broker is coupled to the visited network and
the home network. A service broker AAA server, which is located in the service
broker, contacts a home AAA server, which is located in the home network. The
service broker AAA server establishes a trust relationship between the visited
network and the home network by utilizing an extension of the IP mobility messages.
These IP mobility extension messages are combined with the AAA messages to
provide mobility functionality to the AAA messages. A home mobility manager
(HMM), which is coupled to the home AAA server and is located in the home
network, transmits to the user the information via the data network, the SMM, and the
access node using the trust relationship.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a vehicle-mounting
steering switch (3) which exhibits excellent operability and
requires just a small installation space. A vehicle-mounting
steering switch (3) includes a manipulating knob (6) which is rotatably
and pivotally supported on a support member (4). The support member (4)
is fixedly secured to a rear surface of a pad of the steering
wheel and, at the same time, the manipulating knob is protruded

patterns (7a,7b) is mounted on the support member (4), while a sliding
element (18) which is slidable on the circuit board (7) is mounted on
the manipulating knob (6). When a driver performs push or pull
manipulation of the manipulating knob (6) with his finger, a
relative position of the circuit board (7) and the sliding element (18)
is changed so that two kinds of ON signals are outputted. In

Abstract: In a method for varying one or more print attributes of a print made
from a digital image, a print attribute value is computed for the digital image
based on a determination of the degree of importance, interest or attractiveness of
the image and the resulting print attribute value is used to control a print attribute
of the print made from the image. The print attribute value is derived from an
emphasis or appeal value, wherein an appeal value is an assessment of each image
taken by itself and the emphasis value is an assessment of each image in relation
to other images in a group. In a typical embodiment, the print attribute is either
the number of prints made of the image, the size of a print made from the image,
or the magnification factor used for the image.

Abstract: A method of managing slowly changing dimensions in a dimensional database, such as a
dimensional data mart, is disclosed. The method consists of providing a dimension
template for each dimension undergoing slow changes, which template assigns a behavior
to each column of the dimension table. When a row of dimensional data is to be delivered
to the dimension table, the table is searched for a record having the key value of the row
of data to be delivered. If such a record exists and if any attributes of the row to be
delivered have their values changed compared with the existing record, the table is
updated according to the behavior type assigned to these attributes in the dimension
template, either by overwriting the existing record with the record to be delivered or by
creating a new record or records.

Abstract: A two-color photo-detector (5) capable of sensing two colors at a single photo-detector location is provided having a lower photo-detector element (13) resident in the bulk silicon (60) and an upper photo-detector element (12) elevated above the lower photo-detector element (13). The color sensitivity of each of the photo-detector elements (12 and 13) is determined according to the absorption curve of the upper photo-detector element (12), the thickness of the upper photo-detector element (12) and the color filter (30) array, if any. The elevated upper photo-detector element (12) overlies the circuitry needed for both the upper photo-detector element (12) and the lower photo-detector element (13). In order to accurately sample color within an array of two-color photo-detectors (5) without a color filter array, two different thicknesses for the upper photo-detector elements (12) of adjacent two-color photo-detectors (5) are used. Therefore, each pair of two-color photo-detectors (5) within the array senses four different colors (i.e., blue and the complement of blue and red and the complement of red). To process the raw color values for compression and storage, a simple color-conversion matrix can be used on a 2x2 block of two-color photo-detectors (5) to convert the four colors (eight color values) to a new color space, such as YCbCr (4:1:1), without traditional demosaicing neighborhood operations.

Abstract: Since there is a possibility that an application downloaded to a
terminal performs an invalid operation, an operation of the downloaded
application is very much restricted, and the application cannot use local
resources of the terminal 
     With the use of information for authenticating the application, which
is held in a tamper-resistant region of an authentication module,
authentication for the application downloaded to a download section of the
terminal is performed to confirm its source or whether or not it has been
tampered with. Only an authenticated application is permitted to use the
local resources of the terminal or the authentication module, so that an
invalid application is prevented from using the local resources. Further,
there is no need to make the terminal have the tamper-resistant region,
manufacturing costs of the terminal can be held at a low level.
