Patent EP-1868138-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HAMOUD RIAD I
IPC: G06K9/00
Filed: 2007-06-07
Abstract: A human eye (22) is tracked between successively produced video image frames by consecutively applied eye location techniques. First, potential eye candidates within a local search window are identified using horizontal projection filtering, coupled with rudimentary appearance-based testing (62). The identified eye candidates are clustered and subjected to additional appearance-based testing to determine if one or more eye candidates should be accepted (64). If no eye candidates are accepted, a correlation/appearance technique is applied to the search window to identify the eye (70). If unsuccessful, the eye may be closed, and peripheral eye-related patches from the previous image frame are extracted and compared with the search window to identify the eye in the current frame (74). When comparable eye-related patches are identified in the search window for the current frame, the eye center is computed according to the mean of the eye periphery patches (150).

Abstract: A battery supplies electric power to electric equipments of the vehicle. An alternator generates the electric power and charges the battery when an engine of the vehicle is operated. An economical running control section is operable to perform an economical running in which the engine is automatically stopped when the vehicle is in a predetermined engine stopping condition and the engine is automatically restarted when the vehicle is in a predetermined engine restarting condition. A calculate section is operable to calculate an available current value which is available to supply to the electric equipments from the battery. A feed limiting section is operable to limit to supply the electric power to the electric equipments from the battery. The economical running control section controls the economical running based on a total value of necessary current values which are necessary for the respective electric equipments and the available current value. The feed limiting section limits to supply the electric power to the electric equipments from the battery based on the total value of the necessary current values and the sum of the available current value and a generated current value of the alternator.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for forming a plurality of parts, such as spade-type boring bits (410), from a continuous stock material (12). Thus, the various steps of the forming method of the present invention can be performed to predetermined portions of the continuous stock material (12) prior to separating the continuous stock material into discrete parts, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the forming process. In the forging method, the forge can incrementally rotate the ram after one or more parts have been forged. By repeating the incremental rotation of the ram, the forge will eventually rotate the ram a full 360°.

Abstract: A base station for use in a wireless network that communicates according to a multi-carrier protocol. The base station receives an uplink signal transmitted by a subscriber station. The subscriber station transmits using a configurable spectral shaping filter and a selectable modulation order. The base station determines a required bandwidth efficiency associated with the subscriber station and, in response to the determination, selects a modulation order and a filter parameter to be used by the subscriber station. Advantageously, the base station selects the modulation order and the filter parameter in order to maximize a power efficiency of the subscriber station while maintaining the required bandwidth efficiency.

Abstract: Various exemplary methods and devices are provided for tensioning suture. The methods and devices are particularly useful in surgical suturing applications in which it is desirable to maintain tension on suture being delivered, yet to allow the tension to be released as desired without retracting the suture. Thus, when tension is released, a length of suture extended from the device can remain extended without any tension being applied thereto. Tension is only applied to any additional length of suture that is extended from the device. The tension applied to the suture is proportional to the length of the suture extended from the device until the tension is released and reset.
