摘要： A method and system for providing a halftoned image is disclosed. The method and system comprise scaling the halftoned image by performing pel repetition utilizing an error diffusion algorithm such that artifacts are minimized. According a system and method in accordance with the present invention performs pel repetition using error diffusion technology, so that any resulting “artifacts” are realized as high-frequency image addition, making them much less visible. A system and method in accordance with the present invention provides adjustability in the computational complexity of the scaling, so that quality can be traded off continuously against the amount of processing power required.

摘要： Systems and methods for implementing a fast, color printer architecture are disclosed. A print processor comprises a plurality of processing units operating in parallel to process data for different layers or color planes. A connection can be formed between any processing unit and any print head of one or more printers. Any one of a plurality of the parallel processing units may be assigned to process one, some, or all of the colors of data. Consequently, each one of a plurality of print heads can be assigned to receive data from any one of a plurality of processing units.

摘要： The present invention is related to a method and system for transforming a datastream. The method includes parsing the datastream into a plurality of work units in a first format and processing each of the plurality of work units by at least one compute node to convert each work unit into a second format. In another aspect, the system includes a central component for receiving the datastream in a first format, a plurality of sources in the central component, where each of the plurality of sources is associated with at least one transform, and at least one compute node coupled to the central component. According to the system of the present invention, the central component instantiates at least one source of the plurality of sources that parses the datastream into a plurality of work units in the first format, and distributes each of the work units to the at least one compute node, which converts each work unit into a second format.

摘要： A disk-shaped projectile can be launched in a variety of orientations incing face-on and edge-on orientations. The launcher includes two spinning disks for receiving the projectile between them and imparting a force to the projectile. The angle between the axes of the disks can be set to zero or a non-zero value. The angle and the spin rates of the disks control the linear velocity and the spin rate of the projectile.

摘要： A foot spa is disclosed which can accommodate more than one user at once so that a shared experience and relaxing social setting is provided. The invention comprises a water-tight chamber with an open vertical surface, an element for heating water and a motorized pump and tubing for circulating water from the chamber, through the heating element and back into the chamber. Foot spas have been in common usage for therapeutic and recreational purposes. The prior art describes foot baths which accommodate one pair of human feet and hot tub spas which accommodate one or more whole human bodes. However a foot spa designed for more than one pair of feet is novel. Further features including integral seating, textured chamber surfaces, messaging jets, reinforcement to allow in-ground installation, and portability by means of attached wheels are also comprised in the current invention.

摘要： Type II photoinitiators interact with co-initiating agents to initiate polymerization in ethylenically unsaturated resins when exposed to irradiation. In the current invention, said photoinitiators are bound to the surface or synthesized on the surface of polymer or inorganic particles or molecules, creating a complex which is multifunctional with respect to the photo-initiating capability. The mixture of said photoinitiator in said monomer/co-initiator mixture will demonstrate a low level of elution of initiator species from the cured polymer in liquid media.

摘要： The Greenlist tool provides payors desiring to pay a merchant a means to locate, validate and effect the transfer of assets to another party by routing transaction requests to a third party that functions as the transaction enabler. This task is performed without divulging confidential information about transactors while assigning liability for certain risk consequences to the lowest cost risk bearers: banks. Greenlist verifies identities before making financial transactions or before obtaining access to restricted information. The Greenlist can be completely trusted by risk-bearers. Liability for risk can be transferred to the registrars of the information contained within the registry. This liability transfer substantially reduces the payor's cost of bearing risks. Banks or third parties responsible for certifying that someone or some entity claiming to be an authorized party is not an impostor can now offer new levels of service at a substantially lower cost for a variety of transactions.

摘要： A cleaning card for use in cleaning internal surfaces of machine components, including internal, rotatable idler rolls, includes a substrate having a central plane between opposed surfaces thereof, a machine direction dimension defined between opposed end edges and a transverse direction dimension defined between opposed side edges. The substrate includes an angled embossment forming angled, substantially non-collapsible, elongate raised ridges on opposite sides of the cleaning card substrate, with the raised ridges being oriented at an angle to the machine direction for incrementally engaging an idler roll surface along its axial extent as the raised ridges pass through a nip including the idler roll to aid in both rotating and cleaning one or more idler rolls. In preferred embodiments the opposed surfaces of the substrate each have a plurality of discrete, raised and collapsible working areas for engaging and cleaning internal surfaces of machine components in addition to idler rolls. In the most preferred embodiments, discrete, raised and collapsible working areas cooperate with the raised ridges for aiding in cleaning idler roll(s).
