  • Publication number: 20150190234
    Abstract: A Midlay component includes a plastic bearing part and a metal tray part. The upper surface of the bearing part is dished in frontal and sagittal planes, to provide a bearing surface, such that in function, the femoral contact point will remain in the central region of the bearing surface. Hence the load-bearing on the plastic bearing part will be above the thickest portion in the central region. The metal tray part features a tray-bottom that enables retention of strong cortical and cancellous portion of a tibia in the treatment of osteoarthritis of a knee joint, and supports the plastic bearing part, with the rim of the metal tray part maintaining the position of the plastic bearing part and minimizing micromotions.

    Abstract: A source driver and a Gamma correction method thereof with lower layout area and preferred Gamma correction performance are provided. The source driver includes a Gamma correction unit, a latch unit, and a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The Gamma correction unit receives an original image data, and converts the original image data to a corresponding corrected image data. The latch unit is coupled to the Gamma correction unit. The DAC is coupled to the latch unit, so as to convert the corrected image data to a corresponding analog drive signal. In the Gamma correction method, first, a correction unit to correct an original image data to a corresponding corrected image data is provided, and the corrected image data is converted into a corresponding analog drive signal.

  • Publication number: 20080231474
    Abstract: A airport runway warning system disposes a number of warning lanterns parallel to the runway by the two sides of the runway. Also, every warning lantern is at least connected to one empty sensor, to sense the nearby runway zone. All the warning lanterns and sensors are connected to a central controlling unit, disposed on the airport control tower. The central controlling unit, furthermore, connects to the main displaying light in the entrance of every communication path. By the operation in coordination via every warning lantern, sensor, central controlling unit and main displaying light, additional runway real-time information can be provided to the pilot and the people in the control tower. Particularly, the obstacles appearing on the runway abruptly can also be warned immediately.
