Abstract: To improve the quality of the demodulated signal without altering the form in which an AM radio wave is transmitted, the received amplitude-modulated signal is converted to a single-sideband signal, and the information signal demodulated from the phase term of this converted single-sideband signal.

Abstract: Disclosed hereby is a microscopic system integrated with wide-screen television in which a medical information is combined with an image signal picked up by an imaging device including a microscope, a wide-screen television camera and an adaptor for mounting the camera on the microscope; the synthesized image signal is transmitted to be recorded/reproduced and the synthesized image is displayed as a stereoscopic image.

Abstract: A 3D object graphics display device for storing information about 3D objects such as works of art or buildings, and for displaying them on a 2D display. The "3D shape data" and "texture data" of a 3D object is stored in a memory in advance. When an operator operates a manipulator, a 2D image is generated, which would be acquired when the 3D object is seen from a viewpoint indicated by the manipulator, by using the 3D shape data and the texture data in every 1/60 sec or less interval (that is, a minimum display interval of the display device). The 2D image is shown on the display, giving the operator a virtual-reality-like feeling as if he was actually holding the 3D object.
