Title: Two stage hermetic carbon dioxide compressor
Inventor: BUNCH RICK L
IPC: F04C23/00
Filed: 2003-06-26
Abstract: A two stage hermetic compressor which uses carbon dioxide as the working fluid. A pair of modules individually housing compression mechanisms are located at opposite ends of a module housing an electric motor. The modules are secured to one another when the compressor is assembled. Suction pressure carbon dioxide gas is compressed in the first compression mechanism to an intermediate pressure which is introduced into an electric motor module compartment. The intermediate pressure gas enters the second compression mechanism module through a suction port. A conical baffle is affixed to the upper compression mechanism module to protect the suction port from direct suction of oil and to separate oil entrained in the gas therefrom. The intermediate refrigerant gas is compressed to a discharge pressure and is discharged into a compartment defined in the second compression mechanism module. The discharge pressure gas is then exhausted to the refrigeration system.

Title: Digital composition of a mosaic motion picture
Inventor: SAED ARYAN
IPC: G03B21/02
Filed: 2003-10-01
Abstract: A mosaic movie (motion picture) resembling a target movie is composed of movies from a data base. The target movie is divided into tile regions of a specified size and shape, and the individual movies from the data base are compared to each region to find the best matching rile movie. The comparison is performed by calculating a figure of visual difference between each tile and each region. The data base of tile movies is created from raw source movies using digital image processing, whereby multiple instances of each individual raw source movie are produced. The tile movies are organized by subject matter, and tile matching is performed such that all required subject matters are represented in the final mosaic. The digital image processing involves the adjustment of colour, brightness and contrast of tile images, as well as cropping. A movie description index locates each movie in the final mosaic.
