Abstract: The system has cascadable communications modules associated with the door speech positions and each containing a first changeover switch, a current source, control logic and a selection detector. The module only connects a door speech unit to the telecommunications system in response to the receipt of a selection character from that position. All other door speech positions are connected to a current source which supplies the non-connected positions with a rest current.

Abstract: A piston (40) for use in a compressor housing (10) having a
cylindrical inner surface (12) with an anti rotation wing (42) of improved
design. The outer surface of the piston anti rotation wing (42) includes a pair
of spaced, semi cylindrical pads (48), each with a radius substantially equal to
the compressor housing inner surface (12). Each pad (48) is located on the
anti rotation wing (42) such that, when the wing (42) is centered, the inner
edge of each pad (48) is radially spaced slightly from the housing inner
surface (12), and each pad is eccentric relative to the center of the compressor
housing surface (12). When the anti rotation wing (42) turns in either
direction, one pad (48) or the other contacts the housing inner surface (12)
concentrically, making continuous supporting contact.

Abstract: A method of and a system for controlling an inverse kinematics generated
animation of an articulated chain is described. A resolution plane in a default orientation is
computed by determining a root-effector vector extending from a root of an articulated chain
to an end effector of the articulated chain and letting the resolution plane extend through the
root-effector vector. A control icon representative of a position relative to the root is visually
displayed. The resolution plane of an articulated chain is manipulated by manipulating the
icon and re-determining the resolution plane using the root-effector vector and a root-control
vector extending from the root to the icon. The animation of the articulated chain is
constrained relative to the resolution plane and a solution of positions and orientations of all
limbs of the articulated chain in achieving a goal is computed and displayed.

Abstract: A computer station (18) is used to establish in
real time, and as a function of the condition and
appearance of a jaw bone, the optimum longitudinal axes
for drill holes or implants which can be positioned one
after another in the jaw bone. Each longitudinal extent
in the actual system of coordinates is simulated with
the aid of a hand tool (15) which is spatially
monitored by means of detection members (16) which
transmit, to the computer station, one or more signals
which can be related to the position of the tool. The
tool (15) is applied to the respective drill hole (3)
with an alignment to the jaw bone which corresponds to
the longitudinal axis of the future drill hole. With
the aid of the contents of the said signals, the
computer station simulates the longitudinal axes of the
imagined drill holes. The computer presents the drill
hole constellation simulated in the actual system of
coordinates, and with the aid of the image on the
computer screen it is possible to determine whether the
simulated constellation is acceptable or not. If
accepted, the information is fed back in the form of
control signals to the hand tool at the time of the
actual production of the drill hole.

Abstract: The method of the present invention involves a card game in which at least two rows
of cards, and preferably three rows, are dealt to a player. The player makes a wager for each
row of cards. One row of five cards are dealt all face up. The player selects none, one or
more of the face up cards from the first row as cards to be held. The cards that are held are
duplicated from the first row into all of the other rows. Replacement cards for the non-selected
cards are dealt into the first row. Additional cards are also dealt to all of the other
rows so that each row is a five card hand. The poker hand ranking of each five card hand by
row is determined. The player is then paid for any winning poker hands based on a pay table
and the amount of the player's wager.
