  • Patent number: 6029997
    Abstract: An airbag structure allowing less amount of air to be entered into the front part of the airbag when the airbag inflates. The airbag structure has a membrane which reduces the inflow of air expanded rapidly by high pressure gas in the airbag when the airbag inflates by an impact due to a collision or other sudden accident during driving. Thus, the airbag structure provides an effect of preventing the passengers from being suffocated or being injured by expanding air pressure of the airbag.

  • Patent number: 5818422
    Abstract: A mouse for a computer having a longitudinal slot formed in a side wall of the mouse body through which the mouse cable passes to the computer. The guide slot is notched along one edge with rounded grooves for removably receiving a connector of the mouse cable and thereby selectively adjusting the connected position of the cable at the side wall of the mouse in accordance with the size and configuration of the hand of a user. A pointer in the form of an arrow extends forwardly at the front of the mouse to enable the mouse to precisely follow an original which is to be copied on a screen of the computer.

  • Patent number: 5548662
    Abstract: Edge extracting method and apparatus using a neural network performing a function of diffusing an excitation. The method and apparatus continuously detect a variety of intensity changes of an image via a function having a variety of frequency characteristics. An edge of a fixed object is detected from images continuously input, and an edge of a moving object is selectively detected from the images. The edge extracting apparatus includes a first neural network which receives an image signal. The first neural network derives a Gaussian function representing the regularity of an excitatory response and an inhibitory response to a spot excitation of the image signal. The apparatus also includes a second neural network which detects edges of an image represented by the image signal by convolving the Gaussian function and the image signal.
