    摘要: Embodiments of the invention may be used to enhance the presentation of a virtual environment for certain users, e.g., a visually impaired user. Because users may visit, and revisit, locations within the virtual environment, the state of elements in the virtual environment may change. Accordingly, audible descriptions of an object, person or environment, may be adjusted to prevent redundant or unnecessary descriptions. For example, when the user encounters a given element a second time, rather than describe each characteristic of the element, only changes to the characteristics of the element are described.

    摘要: An assistive reading device for visually impaired users comprises a sheet-like member containing a photo-active material. The sheet-like member responds to light patterns representing data from a patterned light source to form tactile shapes on its surface. The visually impaired user obtains information by touching the tactile shapes. Preferably, the photo-active material is a layer of cross linked azobenzene liquid-crystalline polymers. The assistive reading device preferably is an output device for a computer.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide a method, apparatus, and program product to verify a program that includes a plurality of sections with a computing system that is configured to process a plurality of threads of execution. The method comprises verifying and executing a first section of the program utilizing a first thread of execution in response to activation of the program and determining a second section of the program to execute subsequent to the first section. The method further comprises verifying the second section utilizing a second thread of execution in parallel with the execution of the first section. Another embodiment of the invention provides a method of compiling program that includes program code by grouping the program code into sections based upon the execution time of the program code and based upon which program code is most commonly executed.

    摘要: Methods and systems are disclosed for registering and moving a sheet article along a path that can use an actuator to mimic a biased device such as a spring-loaded device. The actuator can include a solenoid and an arm. The movement of the arm with the solenoid can be done by pulse-width modulation by providing a high pulse-width modulation duty cycle to the solenoid to provide a resistive force on the arm and providing a low pulse-width modulation duty cycle to the solenoid to provide a less resistive force on the arm. Inserting stations use in sheet article inserting system that employ the actuator are also provided.
