  • Publication number: 20110122139
    Abstract: A two dimensional (2D) vector graphics triangulation system and a method thereof are provided. The system includes a memory module and a triangle mesh processing module. The memory module temporarily stores a triangle mesh triangulated from a 2D vector graphics into a binary tree data structure. The triangle mesh processing module adjusts the triangle mesh, or re-performs a triangulation processing to a local region of the loop when a state of a loop of the 2D vector graphics is changed. The triangle mesh processing module includes a level of detail unit, which proportionally adjusts an error threshold according to a zoom condition of the loop, updates an error value of each boundary line when the loop is deformed, and splits a boundary line or merges two neighbouring boundary lines according to the error values of the boundary lines and the error threshold.

  • Patent number: 7823536
    Abstract: An automatic waxing apparatus and a method thereof are provided. The automatic waxing apparatus includes a movable door-shaped module, at least a waxing module and a controlling module. The movable door-shaped module includes a door-shaped structure capable of moving with respect to the vehicle. The waxing module disposed on the door-shaped structure includes a wax-supplying unit and a wax-polishing unit. The controlling module is coupled to the door-shaped structure, the wax-supplying unit and the wax-polishing unit. The controlling module, according to the information of the vehicle, determines a moving path of the door-shaped structure, a waxing path of the wax-supplying unit, and a polishing path of the wax-polishing unit with respect to the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20060218594
    Abstract: A dual-function transmitting system is provided. The dual-function transmitting system includes a receiving module, N combining modules, N transmitting modules, and M signal providers. After receiving a CATV signal and an Ethernet signal, the receiving module transfers the Ethernet signal into a RF signal. Each of the N combining modules combines the CATV signal and the RF signal transferred from the receiving module to generate a combined signal, respectively. Each of the N transmitting modules is coupled to one corresponding combining module and transmits the combined signal received from the corresponding combining module. Each of the M signal providers is coupled to one corresponding transmitting module, receives the combined signal transmitted from the corresponding transmitting module, and provides the CATV signal and the RF signal comprised in the combined signal, respectively.
