Abstract: The invention relates to a device for parallel processing data and to a camera system comprising such a device. The camera system ( 1 ) comprises a sensor matrix ( 2 ), a data converter ( 3 ), a DSP ( 4 ), a central controller ( 5 ), a data buffer ( 7 ) and a processor matrix ( 11 ) consisting of processors ( 12 ). The sensor matrix ( 2 ) converts incident electromagnetic radiation into pixel signals. The data converter ( 3 ) converts the pixel signals into data. The arrows ( 6 ) and ( 8 ) diagrammatically indicate the transport of pixel signals and data. The data buffer ( 7 ) is physically divided into a part ( 7 A) and a part ( 7 B) and functionally divided into an I/O register ( 9 ) and a memory bank ( 10 ). The central controller ( 5 ) co-ordinates the different tasks. The processors ( 12 ) and the data buffer ( 7 ) have data ports ( 13 ) and further data ports ( 14 ) with inputs and outputs which are mutually connected in an electrically conducting manner using the connections ( 15 ). The processors ( 12 ) are arranged in rows ( 16 ) which are mutually staggered, and columns ( 17 ). This makes all connections ( 15 ) substantially straight. Due to the amount of connections, this reduces the surface area.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and process for solid-state deposition and consolidation of powder particles entrained in a subsonic or sonic gas jet onto the surface of an object. Under high velocity impact and thermal plastic deformation, the powder particles adhesively bond to the substrate and cohesively bond together to form consolidated materials with metallurgical bonds. The powder particles and optionally the surface of the object are heated to a temperature that reduces yield strength and permits plastic deformation at low flow stress levels during high velocity impact, but which is not so high as to melt the powder particles.

Abstract: A system and method for encoding the speech of multiple speakers for transmission on a limited medium such as ISDN or ADSL. The system and method encode one or more "dominant" speakers on a first channel, and merges all other speakers into a second channel. A "dominant" speaker may be defined according to the needs of the application, but intuitively it is a speaker in a collaboration session who has the "floor". The method and system transmit speech through a teleconferencing system having an available bandwidth. Speech from a speaking one, or ones, of the plurality of participants is passed while speech from non-speaking participants is rejected. The system responds to the speech from the one, or ones of the speaking participants passed by the speech detector, and determines which of the detected speaking one, or ones, thereof is a dominant speaker. The system allocates one portion of the available bandwidth to the determined dominant speaker and merges the non-dominant participant(s) onto a second bandwidth portion of the available bandwidth.

Abstract: Outer loop/weighted open loop power control controls transmission power levels in a spread spectrum time division duplex communication station. A first communication station (110) transmits a communication to a second communication station including target adjustment information generated at the first station on the basis of measured error rates of communications from the second station to the first station. The second station receives the communication and measures its received power level. Based on in part the received communication's power level and the communication's transmission power level, a path loss estimate is determined. A quality of the path loss estimate is also determined. The transmission power level for a communication from the second station to the first station is based on in part weighting the path loss estimate in response to the estimate's quality and based on the receive target adjusted by the target adjustment information transmitted from the first station.
