Abstract: A caption translation system is applied in an electronic device equipped with a display unit. The system comprises a controlling module, an obtaining module, a translating module and an integrating module. First, the controlling module issues a command initiating the obtaining module to obtain a caption signal from the original video signal received by the electronic device; the translating module the translates the caption signal obtained by the obtaining module; last, the integrating module integrates the translation result generated by the translating module with the original video signal and delivers it to the display unit for outputting, so as to solve the language difficulties for the audience viewing a non-native language television program or a pre-recorded program such as on a VCD or DVD etc.

Abstract: A micro liquid cooling device including a radiator, a thermal conductor, an actuator, and a circular path is proposed. The actuator includes a cavity sealed with a thin film, an inlet diffusion port connected to the cavity, an outlet diffusion port connected to the cavity, a magnetic body connected to the thin film, and a pole acting on the magnetic body, such that circulation of a liquid coolant in the circular path can be effected. By such design of the actuator, vibration and noise can be reduced and reliability can be improved, and thus problems caused by the use of a prior-art technique which employs a piezoelectric pump as an actuation source for the liquid coolant can be solved.

Abstract: A multi-level query system and method can be applied to an information device to perform lookup and translation of a vocabulary of a foreign language. Firstly, a vocabulary to be inquired and translated is inputted via a screen of the information device to the system. Then, the system determines whether there is enough space for storing content from query of the vocabulary, and adjusts an assigned storage node according to the determination result so as to record an assignment condition of the storage node. Subsequently, the system stores the inputted vocabulary and assigns it to a corresponding position according to the storage node as well as displays a definition of the vocabulary. This can achieve multi-level query of continuous chains of vocabularies of a foreign language and also allow the query results to be switched between different levels.

A subtitle rolling module displays content of the list of sentence units. When the speech file is played, the subtitles in the sentence unit index are clearly marked, and every letter or character of the subtitles is highlighted. A waveform displaying module marks positions of sentence pauses and playing progress on an oscillogram for the speech file by lines.
