  • Patent number: 10569169
    Abstract: Data processing method and apparatus for a network system are provided. The method includes collecting, by a recording module at a socket interface of a front apparatus of the network system, data packets transmitted between the front apparatus and a server, sequentially recording the collected data packets in a binary file in chronological order, and saving the binary file; and disconnecting, by a playback module, transmission communication between the front apparatus and the server, sequentially parsing the data packets in the binary file in chronological order, and sending the data packets to an upper-layer logic processing module of the front apparatus without using the socket interface. The present disclosure can implement a demonstration (Demo) technology of a network system in a simple processing manner, thereby reducing system complexity and storage space occupied, and improving universality.

  • Patent number: 10569543
    Abstract: In one example, a printhead assembly module includes an upstream row of printheads and a downstream row of printheads and a flow structure to distribute printing fluids to the printheads. The upstream and downstream rows of printheads are offset from one another such that a printhead in the upstream row extends past the downstream row at one end of the module and a printhead in the downstream row extends past the upstream row at the other end of the module. The flow structure includes a plate, slots in the plate to carry printing fluid to the printheads, and corresponding channels in the plate to distribute printing fluid to the slots. The slots and channels are arranged on the plate such that the arrangement is the same when rotated 180° about an axis of symmetry located at the geometric center of the arrangement.

  • Patent number: 10568982
    Abstract: Articles can be provided with odor resistance by applying a dispersion of a halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine in an inert liquid carrier onto the surface of the article and allowing the inert liquid carrier to penetrate into it. The N-halamine accordingly becomes deposited on the surface of the article after the inert liquid carrier penetrates into the article. This method can be used to provide odor resistance to a variety of substrates, including garbage bags. It can also be used to deposit other functional particulates onto the surface of substrates having sufficient porosity to take up the vehicle. For instance, such functional particles can be oxidants that display antimicrobial and/or enzyme inhibitory efficacy or particles having toxin interaction potentials through oxidative degradation or adsorption of toxic substances in air and/or water, such as fluoride uptake by metal oxide microparticles.

  • Patent number: 10573007
    Abstract: Edges of layers are detected from an input image to create a boundary line candidate image that represents the detected edges. A luminance value of the input image is differentiated to create a luminance value-differentiated image that represents luminance gradient of the layers. An evaluation score image is created which is obtained by weighting calculation at an optimum ratio between a boundary line position probability image and the luminance value-differentiated image. The boundary line position probability image is obtained from the boundary line candidate image and an existence probability image that represents existence of a boundary line to be extracted. A route having the highest total evaluation score is extracted as the boundary line. According to such an image processing apparatus and image processing method, boundary lines of layers can be extracted with a high degree of accuracy from a captured image of a target object composed of a plurality of layers.
