Patent EP-0876055-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TZIDON AVIV
IPC: H04N5/222
Filed: 1998-03-27
Abstract: An improved method of tracking a camera (14) in dynamic chroma-keying of the
type in which a foreground object is photographed against a multicolored chroma-key
screen. The multicolor patterns are created by projection (32,30) on a monochrome screen (20),
for example by projecting light through a mask on a screen colored with the chroma-key
color. The projection of multiple patterns can emulate the use of a single pattern
having multiple levels of detail, and can enable lateral tracking of the camera.
Sequentially projecting known transformations (for example, rotations) of a pattern
adds an extra degree of freedom which further enhances the accuracy of the method.

Abstract: In a transmitter, at least some of
synchronization patterns in a signal having frame
structure are inverted in a bit inverting circuit, and
a plurality of channels of signals which include a
signal having the inverted synchronization patterns
are multiplexed and transmitted in a time-division
manner. In a receiver, the time-division multiplexed
channels are demultiplexed into indivisual channels.
Then, frame synchronization is performed on the basis
of the channel having the inverted synchronization
patterns among the demultiplexed channels. With the
frame synchronized channel as a reference, the
remaining channels are identified. There is no need to
provide a synchronization circuit in each channel, and
the size of the system is not increased.

object. The respective mirrors of the DMD are arranged such
that reflected light images therefrom are aligned on the
object in a direction orthogonal to the direction of the
relative movement, with a pitch smaller than the pitch p of

Abstract: A mandrel for forming a nozzle plate having orifices of precise size
and location, and method of making the mandrel. The nozzle plate (60) is formed
by overcoating a substrate (120) with a metal film (110). The film is covered with
a photoresist material (130). Portions of the photoresist are exposed to light
passing through a photomask having annular light-transparent regions, of precise
diameters and pitch. The photoresist is subjected to a developer bath which
dissolves the photoresist exposed to the light, thereby revealing selected portions
of the film. Next, an etchant is brought into contact with the film for etching-away
the film so as to form an annular opening in the film defining a column (150) of
precise diameter (D1) at the center of each opening. A new photoresist layer is
then applied to the film. Portions of the new photoresist layer is exposed to light
passing through a second photomask. The new photoresist material is then
subjected to the developer which dissolves the new photoresist material to reveal
the film beneath the photoresist and selected areas (160) of the substrate. A
second etchant is applied to create an annular recess (180) extending into the
substrate. The column resides at the center of the recess. This forms the nozzle
plate mandrel (200). Next, a metal layer (210) that will form the nozzle plate is
deposited onto the film and grows into the recess to substantially fill the recess,
except for the space occupied by the column. The finished nozzle plate is
separated from the film/substrate structure to obtain orifices (70) with precise
diameters and pitch (D2).
