Abstract: The light barrier involves ultraviolet emission from a diode (1) which reaches a photodetector (2) in the same unit (7) after passing twice through the object (5) between reflections from a pair of concave mirrors (3) and a coated reflector (4). The presence of the object is detected from its absorption reducing the quantity of ultraviolet light reaching the photodetector. Alternatively, the source emits at two wavelengths, one of which is reflected while the other is transmitted by a semi-transparent mirror between two photodetectors.

Abstract: A system and method provide a multimedia bookmark for a
hypertext markup language file that has Universal Resource
Locator (URL). A user wishing to later revisit a presently
loaded and displayed HTML file requests the browser to store a
bookmark. The browser scans the HTML file for a keyword. If
the keyword is detected, the browser locates a description of
the location of a multimedia bookmark data (MBD) file that is
disposed at a predetermined position in the HTML file in
relation to the keyword. The browser stores the MBD file with
the URL as a multimedia bookmark. If the browser does not find
a keyword, it scans the HTML document for TITLE information.
If detected, the TITLE information is stored with the URL as a
traditional, text-only bookmark. The user recalls his list of
bookmarks to revisit the HTML file, and is presented with a set
of multimedia bookmark representations (MBRs) generated from
the stored MBDs, as well as text-only bookmarks. The browser
may change the appearance of, animate, or present audio
accompaniment to an MBR when the user places his cursor over or
selects the MBR. Upon selecting a MBR or text-only bookmark,
the browser loads and displays the HTML file at the associated

Abstract: An asynchronous digital sample rate converter includes a random access memory (100) for storing input data values, and a read only memory (104) for storing a reduced set of interpolation filter coefficients. Input data is written to the random access memory at the input sample rate. Output samples are provided from a multiply/accumulate engine which, given a stream of input data and filter coefficients, produces an output sample upon request at the output frequency. The initial address for reading input data from the random access memory, and the addresses for coefficients from the read only memory are provided by an auto-centering scheme which is a first order closed loop system with a digital integrator fed by an approximation of the input to output sample rate ratio. This auto-centering scheme may include a feed forward low pass filter to cancel steady state error, and an interpolated write address to reduce noise. A circuit determining the output to input sample rate ratios can also be provided to scale coefficient addresses and resulting output samples to allow for decimation. This circuit includes a form of digital hysteresis to eliminate noise. The ROM coefficients are reduced by relying on the symmetry of the impulse response of the interpolation filter and by utilizing a variable step size forward and backward linear interpolation.

Abstract: In transmitting a packet string having variable packet intervals by converting the packet string into that having even packet intervals with each of the packets being attached with a time stamp as information for reproducing original packet string, when the value of the time stamp, which is decided by adding a specified offset time to the synchronization time, is not smaller than the value of the time stamp attached to the previous packet, the time stamp is attached to the packet and the packet is transmitted. If the value of the time stamp becomes not more than the value of the time stamp attached to the previous packet as a result of providing shortened offset time due to increased bit rate of the original packet string, the packet is discarded so as to protect the transmission from being stopped.

Abstract: The system to reduce the acid contained in books and documents, through their paper compositions, has a hermetically sealed chamber (21) to take the books. The chamber has an inner vacuum. Powder, to build up an alkaline reserve in the books, is eddied out of a supply container and carried to the book pages in an air stream. The powder is carried in a turbulent air stream. Two opposing air streams, at 180 degrees to each other, are directed at the books in the chamber (21). The books, in the chamber (21), are horizontal with their spines downwards, and are opened by about 90 degrees . The books are initially cleaned by a preheated air stream. The opened books are moved to and fro in the air stream(s). The eddied powder in the supply chambers is drawn into the chamber (21) by the vacuum. The books are heated by the air stream(s) and, after dusting with the powder, are treated with steam with heating to prevent steam condensation. The books are cleaned of any residual powder by an air stream. The books are initially cleaned to remove any dust or loose paper particles, and then treated by the application of powder to the pages. The treated pages are conditioned by steam, followed by cleaning to remove any surplus powder. The powder is preferably MgO. An Independent claim is included for an assembly, where the books are arranged in a cassette trolley, which is moved to and fro within the chamber (21). Preferred Features: The book cassettes have side walls to enclose an inner zone of 90 degrees , and form an angle of 45 degrees to the upper side of the trolley. The side walls are adjustable for the book widths, and have openings to secure the book covers. The chamber (21) has a closure to give a hermetic seal against the ambient atmosphere.
