  • Patent number: 7750790
    Abstract: The invention provides a strain gauge which includes a fabric base and at least one conductive yarn. In addition, the fabric base is weaved with a plurality of non-conductive yarns, and the fabric base thereon defines a sensing direction. Moreover, each of the conductive yarn is gimped by a textile process with one of the non-conductive yarns and is woven through the fabric base along the sensing direction. Furthermore, the at least one conductive yarn is capable of being applied by an electric power; when an external force acts on the fabric base, the geometrical property of the at least one conductive yarn alters so that a change of an electric property associated with the applied electric power is sensed to indicate an elongation of said strain gauge applied by the external force along the sensing direction.

  • Patent number: 7352814
    Abstract: Artifact detection and counting is enhanced using looping in both the horizontal and vertical direction is enhanced via a reduced bandwidth for accumulation of count values into count table entries. According to an example embodiment of the present invention, first and second loops are made for horizontal and vertical count table entries. Quotient and remainder values of a detected artifact value are used for increasing count table entries in the first looping pass, and the count table entries are increased using the quotient value in the second loop. The table increase in the first loop is limited to the length of the remainder value, and the table increase in the second loop is limited to the length of the row or column in the count table being used. In this manner, latency for additions to the count table and the bandwidth for making the additions are reduced, relative to conventional applications. In addition, each entry into the table can be reduced to one addition.
