Abstract:
A method is provided in one example and includes receiving image data at a camera element that is provisioned at a first endpoint, which is configured to conduct a video session involving a second endpoint. The method also includes identifying an incoming request for the video session; signaling to the camera element to open a lens included within the camera element; detecting that the video session has been terminated; and signaling to the camera element to close the lens.

On the discharge space side of the front substrate there are disposed a metal oxide layer and magnesium oxide crystal particles. The magnesium oxide crystal particles are arranged on the discharge space side of the metal oxide layer, or alternatively, part of the magnesium oxide crystal particles are disposed within the metal oxide layer.
Abstract:
In a transmit/receive system, the carrier frequency offset (CFO), I/Q imbalance, and DC offset (DCO) can cause serious signal distortions. These analog losses can be compensated for individually or in combination of any two of them by following various methods that have been suggested. However, there have suggested no methods of simultaneously compensating, for these three types of losses that occur in actual devices at the same time. The present invention suggests a novel pilot signal that has a cyclic signal portion and a portion of two equally spaced continual signals. The invention provides a method for compensating for the CFO, I/Q imbalance, and DCO by simultaneously performing the time domain compensation and the channel estimation using those signal portions. The method also compensates for the I/Q imbalance and the channel response on the transmitter side in the OFDM scheme.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel and a drive method therefor, which can enhance a representation capability when displaying a dark image. The plasma display panel includes fluorophor layers containing magnesium oxide. The drive method includes a reset step to initialize all the pixel cells into states of one of a light-up mode and a light-off mode, and an address step in which the pixel cells are caused to perform address discharges selectively in accordance with pixel data, which are successively executed in each of a head subfield and a second subfield within a one-field display period. In reset step, a voltage that sets row electrodes on one side, in the row electrode pairs as an anode and sets the column electrodes set as a cathode is applied between the row electrodes on the one side and the column electrodes.

Abstract:
A crystalline magnesium oxide layer is placed facing the discharge space between a front glass substrate and a back glass substrate. The crystalline magnesium oxide layer contains crystal powder having particle-size distribution in which a crystal of a predetermined particle diameter or larger is included at a predetermined ratio or higher, of powder of a magnesium oxide crystal causing a cathode-luminescence emission having a peak within a wavelength range of 200 nm to 300 nm upon excitation by an electron beam.
Abstract:
A plasma display panel has a front glass substrate and a back glass substrate facing each other on either side of a discharge space, row electrode pairs formed on the rear-facing face of the front glass substrate, and a dielectric layer covering the row electrode pairs. Discharge cells are formed in the discharge space. The PDP further has crystalline MgO layers each provided on a part of portion of the face of the front glass substrate having the row electrode pairs formed thereon and facing toward the discharge space. The crystalline MgO layers include magnesium oxide crystals causing a cathode-luminescence emission having a peak within a wavelength range of 200 nm to 300 nm upon excitation by an electron beam.
Abstract:
A camera comprises a multitap imager, separate digitizing channels for each imager tap, adjustments for channel gain and black level, a pattern generator, and a channel balancer. The channel balancer compares adjacent pixels and sums the differences in levels over many frames. Any accumulated difference is used as a feedback signal to drive the summing to a minimum. If the imager is temporarily hooded, the feedback is used to balance black levels between the channels. If the imager is operating, the feedback is used to dynamically adjust the channel gain of one channel to match the other. A pattern generator is used once during calibration to generate a test pattern in the digitizing channels that makes it obvious to a framegrabber how exactly to restitching the various lanes or zones of the whole image frame back together.
