    摘要: A personal computer connected to the Internet can receive and store audio and audiovisual data or programming from the Internet. This audio and audiovisual programming can be provided by the computer over a digital connection to speakers and/or a monitor located away from the computer at a location convenient for a user. A remote control unit allows the user to send signals back over the digital connection to the computer to control the computer to provide the audio or audiovisual programming that the user desires over the digital connection to the speakers and/or monitor located where the user is. The computer may send a listing of the available programming to the remote control unit from which the user can make selections.

    摘要: A combustion system for burning firewood including a combustion chamber defined by front, rear and side walls, a ceiling and a bottom. An access door is provided for addition of fuel into the combustion chamber. A substantial amount of combustion air enters the combustion chamber near the top of the fueling doors via apertures and is directed down the face of the fueling doors providing cooling. A geometry of the air metering orifice is either fixed or of limited adjustability such that the minimum flow of combustion air required for flaming combustion of a full load of fuel is maintained at all times. The combustion air flow cannot be reduced beyond a certain point and thus smoldering and very low air/fuel ratios are avoided. Since the air metering is tuned for proper flaming combustion with the largest expected fuel load and cannot be reduced further, fuel loads smaller than the design fuel load will result in higher air/fuel ratios, thus further ensuring that sufficient combustion air is present for sustained flaming. Furthermore, the minimum combustion air setting limits the amount of combustion air entering the combustion chamber such that too much air is not introduced resulting in inefficiency due to sensible heat loss, chemical loss (pollution), quenching of the flames, and undesirably high burn rates. Ideally, the burning rate of a full load of fuel is below 5 kg/hr, however, the maximum burn rate when burning a full load of fuel may be reduced to as low as 2 kg/hr depending on the size of the firebox and the desired maximum heating capacity of the appliance. Heat output is adjustable primarily by the amount of fuel added at each fuel loading.

    摘要: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, an image or projection cone is projected onto a projection surface via a raster scan to generate the image, or in a light cone. Movements of two or more input sources with respect to projection cone are detected, and a determination is made whether the input sources have crossed a crossover line in the projection cone. If the input sources have moved greater than a threshold amount after crossing the crossover line, position data between the input sources may be exchanged to reflect proper position data for the input sources.

    摘要: A phase for an analog-to-digital converter sampling clock is determined. The analog-to-digital converter samples a video signal to generate pixel values. Differences of successive pixel values are compared to a threshold. The number of times the threshold is exceeded is counted for multiple phase values to create a phase profile. The threshold may be dynamic.

    摘要: A scanning assembly (400) for use in a scanning display includes a reflective scanning surface, such as a scanning mirror (412). The reflected scanning surface can be mounted on a scan plate (409). The scanning assembly (400) is configured to pivot about a first axis (403) and a second axis (404) to form an image. To correct parallelogram distortion, the first axis (403) and second axis (404) are non-orthogonal relative to each other. Torsion arms (407,408) facilitating rotation of the scanning mirror (412) along one axis (403) can be oriented non-orthogonally relative to other torsion arms (413,414) by an amount sufficient to correct parallelogram distortion.
