Appl. No.:

11/726879

Inventors:

Hu Chin - Fremont CA, US
Ken Prayoon Cheng - Saratoga CA, US

Assignee:

Proximex Corporation - Sunnyvale CA

International Classification:

H04N 5/232
H04N 7/18

US Classification:

34821199, 348153, 348155, 348159

Abstract:

A video tracking system includes a user interface configured to facilitate tracking of a target between video cameras. The user interface includes user controls configured to assist a user in selecting video cameras as the target moves between fields of view of the video cameras. These user controls are automatically associated with specific cameras based on a camera topology relative to a point of view of a camera whose video data is currently being viewed. The video tracking system further includes systems and methods of synchronizing video data generated using the video cameras and of automatically generating a stitched video sequence based on the user selection of video cameras. The target may be tracked in real-time or in previously recorded video and may be track forward or backwards in time.

International Classification:

G06F009/44

US Classification:

717/114000

Abstract:

Methods, systems and computer program products display data in a selected language. A data record formatted in a language independent markup format is received and a style sheet associated with the selected language is retrieved. The data record is formatted based on the style sheet and the formatted data record is displayed in the selected language. Data may be generated at a first data processing system that displays text in a first language and provided to a second data processing system that displays text in a second language different from the first language by generating data values at the first data processing system and incorporating the generated data values in a language independent markup document. The language independent markup document may include an identification of a style sheet that specifies how to present the data values in the second language to provide the data record.

International Classification:

H05K 103

US Classification:

174254

Abstract:

An FPC assembly (10) includes a circuit unit (12) with two different pitch arrangement connectors (14, 16) at two opposite ends. The circuit unit (12) includes a signal FPC (18) and a grounding FPC (20). A buffer layer (22) with adhesives on two opposite surfaces (24, 26) is sandwiched between the signal FPC (18) and the grounding FPC (20), and thus the signal FPC (18), the buffer layer (22) and the grounding FPC (20) are adhesively fastened with one another as one circuit unit (12). The signal FPC (18), the buffer layer (22) and the grounding FPC (20) respectively include contact tail holes (34, 35) at two opposite ends for receivable engagement with the corresponding contact tails (36, 37) of the connectors (14, 16).

US Classification:

174117F

Abstract:

A ground plane cable assembly (10) includes a flat ribbon cable (12) and a ground plane (18) sandwiching a dielectric spacer (20) therebetween wherein several openings are provided in the dielectric spacer (20) to lower the capacitance between the flat ribbon cable (12) and the ground plane (18) so that the impedance of the whole cable assembly (10) can be raised to a relative high value without increasing the thickness of the dielectric spacer (20).
