Abstract: Since a power source voltage is generated from a communication signal in a wireless chip, there is a risk that a large amount of voltage be generated in the wireless chip to electrically destroy a circuit in the case of supplying a strong communication signal. Therefore, the present invention is made with an aim to provide a wireless chip having resistance to a strong communication signal. A wireless chip of the present invention has an element in which a power source wire and a grounding wire are electrically short-circuited if a power source voltage exceeds a voltage at which an electric circuit is destroyed, i.e., exceeds the specified voltage range. Accordingly, a wireless chip of the present invention has resistance to a strong communication signal.

Abstract: Provided is an encoding method capable of reducing a blocking phenomenon that occurs when moving-images are encoded and decoded. The method includes: performing a first encoding operation (710) on an input image using a first quantization coefficient; generating a reconstructed image (720) of the encoded image; calculating a difference (730) between corresponding partial images of the reconstructed image and the input image; and performing a second encoding operation (740) on the calculated difference using a second quantization coefficient smaller than the first quantization coefficient. Using the second encoded difference, a decoding unit can reconstruct an image of a block boundary portion more elaborately with a small number of bits, thereby significantly reducing the blocking phenomenon in the decoding operation.

Abstract: A form measuring Instrument measures a form of a surface of an object to be measured using a contact to follow the surface. A pseudo-measurement point acquirer acquires positional coordinates of the reference point of the contact as pseudo-measurement points when the contact touches the object at a plurality of locations. A normal vector generator estimates a surface or line along the pseudo-measurement points from the pseudo-measurement points to calculate normal vectors extending from the pseudo-measurement points to the surface or line. A contact model locator locates contact models which specify the surface form of the contact so as to coincide the pseudo-measurement points with reference points of the contact models and so as to coincide attitudes of the contact on measurement with attitudes of the contact models. A measurement point calculator calculates cross points as measurement points, at which the normal vectors cross the surfaces of the located contact models.

Abstract: The invention relates to a laminate, comprising a plastic layer which contains a thermoplastic, which plastic layer is joined at least on one side to a substantially parallel metal skin. The invention also relates to a metal-plastic-metal laminate of this type. According to the invention, the core layer comprises, in addition to the thermoplastic, a solvent and a hardener, the thermoplastic being dissolved in the solvent in order to make the thermoplastic processible, during production of the laminate, at a temperature which is lower than the glass transition temperature of the thermoplastic, and the hardener being capable of reaction with the solvent, or in that the core layer comprises polymer particles which are dispersed in the thermoplastic, which polymer particles are formed from a solvent and a hardener which is capable of reaction with the solvent. In this way, the core layer becomes easier to work during the production of the laminate, while the laminate itself, after cold-working, is dimensionally stable at elevated temperature. The invention also relates to a process for producing a laminate of this type.
