摘要:
A wireless input device may negotiate a predefined transmit/receive schedule with a receiving device (i.e., PC, PDA, cellular device). To conserve power, the wireless components of the input device are powered down during periods of non-transmission. The wireless input device detects intermediate user input and corresponding data according to a detection rate during periods of non-transmission. The intermediate data is then transmitted to the receiving device during a transmission period along with a current data detected at the time of transmission. The wireless device may further discard any intermediate data which does not reflect a significant change. Additionally, the system and method may include a detection rate that adapts to degrees of user activity detected by the wireless input device.
摘要:
A method is described for the reading of a bar code consisting of a predetermined number of code elements for the generation of a binary signal with sequential high and low phases, the lengths of which correspond to the width of the sequential code elements, in particular with a reading direction extending obliquely to the code elements. The code elements are sensed by one or more sensing beams of a bar code reader along scanning lines extending substantially parallel to one another, with each region of a code element scanned by a scanning line forming a code element section. For substantially each scanning line those code segments which consist of a code element section, or a plurality of sequential code element sections, are detected, which are recognized as permissible code segments on the basis of preset decision criteria. A reference code element is found from mutually associated code element sections, each representing the same code element of the bar code for different scanning lines, and the binary signal is produced from the reference code elements. Furthermore, an apparatus is described for carrying out the method.

Naphtholactamsquaric acid dyes of the formula ##STR1## where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 independently of one another are each unsubstituted or substituted C.sub.3 -C.sub.22 -alkyl, in which the alkyl chain may be interrupted by oxygen atoms, or are each unsubstituted or substituted C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -aralkyl, unsubstituted or substituted C.sub.5 -C.sub.7 -cycloalkyl or unsubsituted or substituted phenyl, and the rings A, B, C and D are unsubstituted or substituted and/or benzofused, and optical recording materials consisting of a base and a layer which is sensitive to laser light and is composed of a thermoplastic or crosslinked polymer and one or more dyes (I).Because of the high light absorption of (I), the recording materials are very sensitive to light from the GaAlAs semiconductor laser. An excellent signal-to-noise ratio is obtained on reading the recordings.

A control apparatus (1) for controlling an electrical load (2) has a housing (28), a plug (12) mounted to the housing (28) for connecting the control apparatus (1) to the power outlet (4), a socket (10) mounted to the housing (28) for connecting the control apparatus (1) to the electrical load (2), and a receiver unit (6) mounted within the housing (28) and coupled to the plug (12) and the socket (10). In use, the receiver unit (6) receives a control signal that is indicative of an impending congestion period. Upon receipt of the control signal, the receiver unit (6) interrupts supply of power to the socket (10) and, hence, switches the electrical load (2) off.
摘要:
A method for operating an optical sensor which has a light receptor that receives line-by-line reflected or returned light for a complete picture. At least some of the received pictures are compressed with a picture compression algorithm. To process the picture and more quickly store it in a memory-saving manner, the optoelectronic sensors compress the picture simultaneously with its receipt by the receptor. Optoelectronic sensors for use in this manner can be a code laser or a laser scanner for determining distance or generating separation pictures.

Finely divided, transparent, metal-free X-phthalocyanine has a specific surface area of from 75 to 120 m.sup.2 g and not less than 80% by weight of the phthalocyanine particles have a Stokes-equivalent diameter of .ltoreq.0.12 .mu.m.The phthalocyanine is very useful as a pigment for printing inks and finishes.
摘要:
A method for operating optical sensors, particularly code readers, which have a light receptor that receives light reflected and/or returned from an object. A picture is generated from the received light and the content of the picture, such as a code, is read. At least some pictures are compressed with a picture compression algorithm of the sensor. To improve the operation of such optical sensors, especially code readers, and to improve the analysis of error detection from knowing the causes for errors, only pictures which have error information are compressed and stored. The code reader is constructed to perform these functions.
