摘要:
Apparatus and a method for processing image data where row data is received corresponding to a target row of pixels and to one or more reference rows of pixels. A target row average is generated based on the target row data and a reference row average is generated for each of the one or more reference rows based on each reference row's respective row data. A row correction value is generated based on the target row average of the target row and the reference row average of the one or more reference rows. Corrected target row data is generated by applying the row correction value to the target row data.

An active pixel sensor (APS) image sensor comprises an array of pixel circuits corresponding to rows and columns of pixels, a plurality of amplifiers that buffer signals output by the array of pixel circuits, and a plurality of sample and hold circuits that read the buffered signals. A routing mechanism is positioned between the array of pixel circuits and the plurality of amplifiers. A controller selects a set of the pixel circuits for sampling and is configured to control the routing mechanism to couple each pixel circuit in the set to a different one of the amplifiers during a normal mode of operation and to couple each pixel circuit of a subset of pixel circuits in a first set of pixel circuits to a different amplifier of a first subset of the amplifiers, to couple each pixel circuit of a subset of pixel circuits in a second set of pixel circuits to a different amplifier of a second subset of the amplifiers, and to connect the amplifiers of the first and second subsets of amplifiers in pairs to a common one of the sample and hold circuits during a sub-sampling mode of operation.

A grave site protection and marking apparatus comprising two longitudinal frame members and two lateral frame members; wherein each end of the lateral frame member is connected to a longitudinal frame member at one end of the longitudinal frame member, thereby forming a rectangular frame; wherein each longitudinal frame member comprises a top panel and two side panels that are perpendicular to the top panel and that extend downward; and wherein the top panel and side panels of each longitudinal frame member form an anchoring channel that anchors the frame to the ground when the apparatus is installed on a grave site. The frame formed by the longitudinal and lateral frame members lies nearly flush with the ground surface when the frame is installed on the grave site.

In one embodiment, the present invention is a method and apparatus for efficient electronic document management. One embodiment of the inventive method involves generating one or more user-specific administrator setup files comprising a plurality of parameters pertaining to tasks and steps that users are authorized to perform on electronic documents, wherein some of the parameters are encoded using a private key so that only an authorized user having the corresponding private key can access the encoded parameters. These administrator setup files are retrieved by the corresponding users, who implement their respective administrator setup files to allow performance of at least some of the authorized tasks and steps on a selected electronic document or group of electronic documents. The inventive method substantially eliminates the potential for human error and security breaches in the performance of document management tasks.
摘要:
A distributed power supply delivery network includes an analog biased circuit array having current sources for delivering current to adjacent circuits, and a resistive ladder of resistor elements, where each resistor element is disposed between adjacent current sources. A tuned IR voltage drop network is included to match voltage drops across the resistive ladder. The tuned IR voltage drop network includes series connected resistors and a static current draw to induce the IR drop. The resistors may be matched with respect to the distributed power supply delivery system. The current source providing the static current for the IR drop may be programmed based on the power supply delivery load, in order to adjust the voltage drop across the biasing delivery route and match the voltage drop in the referenced power supply.
