摘要:
A display device (1) of the matrix type is addressed using partial line doubling, i.e. a method in which one or more sub-fields for pixels are doubled, meaning that the same data is used for a set of pixels. Adjacent pixels in a row are addressed using different grey level realizations by applying different combinations of subfields. Partial line doubling is performed on sets of adjacent pixels in a column that are addressed using the same grey level realization. Two different addressing schemes may be used by applying either the standard pattern A/B or the second pattern (n×1 A/B). When applying the latter pattern partial line doubling is performed in a line skipping fashion.

The optical data storage medium (20) has a substrate (1) with a surface area having tracks (4) of marks representing stored information. The information is readable by means of a scanning radiation beam (10). A reflective layer (2) is present, reflecting the radiation beam (10). The medium has a radiation beam (10) reflection larger than 50%. The reflective layer (2) comprises a compound of the formula Al100-y,Xy, in which formula Al is aluminum and X is an element selected from the group of Ge and Si. The letter y is the atomic fraction of X in at. %. The value of y is in the range 5
摘要:
A multi-layer record carrier and method of manufacturing thereof and recording thereon, includes data written in units of blocks on tracks of at least two information layers. A first guard field is written at the start of a data block and a second guard field is written at the end of the data block. The power in the focused spot in the deepest of the at least two information layers is maintained substantially at an optimal value, by setting the length of the first and second guard fields such that the end position of the second guard field of a preceding data block is located within the area of the first guard field of the succeeding data block. Thereby, gap portions between the first and second guard fields can be prevented. Alternatively, the length of the first and second guard fields is set to be approximately equal to the sum of half the diameter of a recording beam in the upper one of the at least two information layers when focused on the lowest one of the at least two information layers and a maximum allowed misalignment between the two layers. Thereby, the area through which the beam passes in the information layer is of a uniform nature, when user data is being read or written. The at least two information layers are aligned by optically measuring and aligning alignment marks, such as header spokes, at predetermined measuring points.

摘要:
A system for generating an audible message to a human includes an apparatus 100. The apparatus includes an input 120 for receiving an audio message. The audio message is stored in a memory 140. An output 150 can be used for rendering the audio message. The apparatus further includes a microphone 110 and a controller 130. If a sound is received via the microphone, the controller causes the stored audio message to be rendered via the output.
摘要:
A method for driving a PDP minimizes motion artifacts, like blur and double edges, by using an up-conversion to preferably 100 Hz as in CRTs with Natural Motion, combined with an LSC sub-field distribution. Sub-field groups from two images are combined to form a field for a display image.
摘要:
A predetermined synchronization pattern (40), a so-called VFO field, in, for example, the headers 3 of an information carrier, consists of sequences of 3T marks and spaces (41), of 8T marks and spaces (42) and of 5T marks and spaces (43). This sequence of patterns is advantageous for setting the dynamic range of an Automatic Gain Controlled (AGC) amplifier located within a device reading the information carrier.

The application relates to methods and devices for determining the optimal erase (17) and write powers for erasing and writing information on an optical record carrier (85). These optimal powers are determined from two powers, Pmin (15) and Pmax (16), found at specific points, (22) and (24), in a curve (10) where the normalized reflected power (12) is plotted versus the test power (11).
摘要:
A record carrier of a read-only type has information in a track. The information is subdivided in addressable blocks and a number of blocks constitute an information unit. The information unit is the minimal unit for error correction according to a format for writable record carriers. On the read-only record carrier a linking area is provided between information units. This has the advantage that compatibility with recordable record carriers is improved.
