Abstract: A system and method automatically determines appropriate font characteristics for different display mediums and different readability parameters in any language. A method includes determining font characteristics by receiving data including a font identifier and a language identifier, producing a representative line of type in the identified language and with the identified font, measuring characteristics of the representative line of type, and normalizing the measurements across a plurality of fonts and a plurality of languages. The normalizing refers to widths of portions of the text called a "black river", which is used to identify plotted measured characteristics to determine an average grayness across a perpendicular to a reading direction. The average grayness enables comparisons to pluralities of fonts and languages. A system and method determines an optimum size for a font for readability. A method determines font characteristics by determining a character density for the font and multiplying the character density by a sharpest focusable area of the viewing medium.

Abstract: It is described an anti-sabotage and anti-theft device for tire inflating valves which is realised by a cap (10) with two main elements of Fig 7 at least, a member (15) with an internal thread and capable of screwing on the end of the valve (9) and the envelope (16) of the same cap, so that the connection between the envelope, on which the screwing and clamping torque is applied, and the member (15) is reached by a click device (Fig 7 section A-A) in order to allow the transmission of the torque between the envelope and the threaded member in the screwing direction only. So doing, when the clamping of the cap is obtained and a sufficient stopping torque is assured (capable of contrasting the unscrewing torque), it is impossible to unscrew the cap from the valve since the unscrewing torque applied to the envelope is not transmitted to the threaded body. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for distributing encryption keys in WLAN, said method combines key distribution process with authentication process of the mobile hosts and utilizes an authentication server or a wireless gateway to manage key distribution, so that mobile hosts can roam in a scope larger than the coverage area of the key management server. Because the key distribution doesn't involve transmitting the key, which is not encrypted via the air interface, the method ensures the key is safe. In addition, said method doesn't depend on specific authentication modes, so it can be used under different kinds of WLAN protocols. Finally, because AP doesn't need to manage user information, the method simplifies AP structure, and thus lowers the cost. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A folding mobile telephone having a dual-movement hinge. The hinge movably attaches one section of the mobile phone to another in such a way that there are at least two ways to access the various features of the mobile phone that are hidden from view in a closed position. The hinge includes a longitudinal pin having a first end that is disposed within a sleeve attached to the first enclosure section, and a second end that is disposed within a sleeve that is attached to the second enclosure section. As a result, the sections may be moved longitudinally with respect to each other for a portion of their length by sliding one or both sleeves away from the other along the pin. The sections may also be rotated about the pin to move the mobile telephone to an open position. In this way a user may selectively access all, or only a portion of the encloseable components and features of the mobile telephone.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transparent security element for valuable documents, comprising superimposed patterns on two opposing sides of a translucent carrier material. In a precise arrangement according to register, the two patterns complete each other to form a full image forming a code. If the positioning is not precise according to register, the code is illegible. The patterns consist of IR-absorbent material and can thus be read by a machine. A pattern can consist of IR-absorbent and IR-transparent partial patterns such that when observing transmitted light with normal light, a different transparent image can be recognised to that recognised when observing transmitted light with IR illumination.
