Patent GB-2343514-A (GB)
Title: A method of positional determination within a series of bodies of repeated shape
Inventor: BROWNHILL COLIN ARTHUR
IPC: G01B21/04
Filed: 1998-11-04
Abstract: Within bodies of repeated shape, ie. motor vehicle shells, it is important to ensure accurate determination of structural feature position within that body. However, if a simple estimate of that structural feature's position within the body is used, it is possible that the interrogation probe may, through collision with the body, become damaged or decalibrated diminishing the accuracy of the positional determination within the body. In accordance with the present invention, positional determinations of structural features in previous bodies of repeated shape are utilised in order to provide actual positions for that structural feature in subsequent bodies which are more accurate than the estimate previously used. In such circumstances, more rapid determination of the position of the structural feature can be achieved with less likelihood of collision induced inaccuracy.

Title: Mat manufacture and a venting cover
Inventor: HEDLEY TERENCE MICHAEL
IPC: B29C33/68
Filed: 1999-08-11
Abstract: A top cover (16) for use in a mat manufacturing process includes a substantially solid border portion (20) of heat resistant fabric having release properties and a vented central portion (22). The vented central portion (22) allows fumes evolved during the manufacturing process to escape before the operator removes the top cover, thereby reducing the operator's exposure to the fumes. For manufacturing a mat, a rubber backing sheet 10 is cured and heat-bonded under pressure to the back of a fabric layer 12 in a heated press (see Figure 1). During curing and bonding, the mat is covered with the top cover 16. The central portion includes at least one aperture formed by cutting out the central portion. Plural apertures are formed by cutting out portions of the central portion. At least one reinforcing element may extend across the central portion. The reinforcing element may comprise a woven mesh of reinforcing fibres.
Patent GB-2344716-A (GB)
Title: Reduced-error processing of transformed digital data
Inventor: BRIGHT MARTIN JAMES
IPC: H04N7/30
Filed: 1999-10-18
Abstract: This invention solves problems due to employing error degraded data in digital processing. It particularly solves multi-generation problems wherein transform data degrade during each inverse transform and forward transform cycle even without any processing due to the rounding and clipping errors. It provides methods, systems and devices for reduced-error processing of transform-coded data. After inverse transformation of transform data, high-precision numbers are manipulated. The converting to integers and clipping to an allowed range steps are executed at any stage in the manipulation to obtain integer representation of the inverse transformed data such as for displaying of the data. However, further processing including forward transforming back to the transform domain is executed on the high-precision numbers. Thus, the rounding and clipping errors are not present in the processed data. Although advantageous to many applications employing digital transformed data, the invention is particularly advantageous for use in digital studios during editing of MPEG-coded, JPEG-coded and wavelet-coded video and audio data.

The base (70) and top (91) are placed together such that the top fiber (95) may be selectively slid into and out of coupling alignment with any of the fibers (64) in the base (70) to form a discretely variable delay line. A single length of fiber (121) is wrapped around the base ( 70) in helical fashion with each loop being secured in one of the v-grooves (68). By coupling the top fiber (95) with different loops of the base fibers (121), different amounts of delay can be obtained. The delay line can be used to provide variable frequency response for notch and transversal filters.
