International Classification:

H02K 41/00
H04R 25/00
H04R 9/06

US Classification:

310 15, 310 36, 381396, 335209, 335238

Abstract:

A tactile wave generating apparatus and method to generate amplified low frequency waves which are then transmitted as tactile waves into a structure and/or to a persons anatomy. There is a housing in which is positioned a drive section that in turn comprises a magnet section that moves upwardly and downwardly as an inertial mass, two coils on opposite sides of the magnet and two flux path return plates for the coils. Each coil comprises upper and lower longitudinally aligned generally linear coil portions which drive the magnet section upwardly and downwardly. The magnet section is supported by upper and lower interconnecting sections that resiliently resist the up and down motion of the magnet section and restrain the magnet section to move up and down within close tolerances.

International Classification:

G06K 9/36

US Classification:

382232

Abstract:

A method and apparatus transfer digital data between a coder/decoder circuit and a signal processor. The transfer of the digital data includes (a) obtaining, at a first circuit, a block of data values having certain statistical characteristics, the first circuit being one of the coder/decoder circuit and the signal processor, (b) generating, at the first circuit, a data stream by encoding the block of data values based on the statistical characteristics thereof, (c) transferring the data stream to a second circuit via a data bus connecting the first circuit and the second circuit, the second circuit being the other of the coder/decoder circuit and the signal processor, and (d) reconstructing, at the second circuit, the block of data values by decoding the data stream received from the first circuit.

Abstract:

A tactile wave generating apparatus for generating amplified low frequency waves for transmission as tactile waves into a structure or a person's body. There is a housing in which is positioned a drive section that in turn comprises a magnet section that moves upwardly and downwardly as an inertial mass, two coils on opposite sides of the magnet and two flux path return plates for the coils. Each coil comprises upper and lower longitudinally aligned generally linear coil portions which drive the magnet section upwardly and downwardly.

International Classification:

A61B 8/14

US Classification:

600471000

Abstract:

An ultrasonic clamp coagulator assembly that is configured to permit selective cutting, coagulation, and fine dissection required in fine and delicate surgical procedures. The assembly includes a clamping mechanism, including a clamp arm cam-mounted at the distal portion of the instrument, which is specifically configured to create a desired level of tissue clamping forces. The balanced blade provides a functional asymmetry for improved visibility at the blade tip and a multitude of edges and surfaces, designed to provide a multitude of tissue effects: clamped coagulation, clamped cutting, grasping, back-cutting, dissection, spot coagulation, tip penetration and tip scoring. The assembly also features hand activation configured to provide an ergonomical grip and operation for the surgeon. Hand switches are placed in the range of the natural axial motion of the user's index or middle fingers, whether gripping the surgical instrument right-handed or left handed.

International Classification:

A61B 18/18

US Classification:

606 45

Abstract:

Apparatus and method to permit selective cutting and coagulation required in fine and delicate surgical procedures. The apparatus includes two body members having proximal ends and distal ends with jaw members located adjacent the body member's distal ends. The body members are joined at a pivot located adjacent to the first and second jaw members joining the first and second body members where the body members' rotation about the pivot defines a plane of rotation. The scissors are adapted for selective application of energy to at least one jaw member by a switch located in the plane of rotation.

H04N 7/24

US Classification:

37524016, 375E07003, 375E07125

Abstract:

A crawl motion vector is determined based on a speed and direction of the crawling text to be displayed in a text crawl area. A determination whether to re-encode macroblocks in the plurality of pictures is made. The macroblocks in the plurality of pictures that are to be re-encoded are either macroblocks having motion vectors pointing to the text crawl area or macroblocks within the text crawl area. A lowest bit rate coding option for each macroblock to be re-encoded is determined, and each macroblock is re-encoded using the lowest bit rate coding option for the macroblock.

International Classification:

H04N 19/147
H04N 19/176
H04N 19/96
G06T 9/00

Abstract:

An apparatus for encoding an image block includes a processor that presents, to a machine-learning model, the image block, obtains the partition decision for encoding the image block from the model, and encodes the image block using the partition decision. The model is trained to output a partition decision for encoding the image block by using training data for a plurality of training blocks as input, the training data including for a training block, partition decisions for encoding the training block, and, for each partition decision, a rate-distortion value resulting from encoding the training block using the partition decision. The model is trained using a loss function combining a partition loss function based upon a relationship between the partition decisions and respective predicted partitions, and a rate-distortion cost loss function based upon a relationship between the rate-distortion values and respective predicted rate-distortion values.
