  • Patent number: 5493653
    Abstract: A computer graphics system and method for capping a polyhedron made up of a plurality of polygons after the polyhedron has been sectioned by a designer to thereby provide a realistic display of the polyhedron. The computer graphics system first comprises at least one processor and at least one memory unit configured with the computer graphics system to process data. The computer graphics system further comprises an input device configured with the computer graphics system to allow the designer to specify the at least one sectioning plane. The computer graphics system further comprises a polyhedron capping module configured in the computer graphics system to instruct the at least one processor how to section and cap the polyhedron against the sectioning plane. The computer graphics system further comprises a display device configured with the computer graphics system to display the capped polyhedron.

  • Patent number: 4926879
    Abstract: A device for electrically stimulating the skin in response to an electrical signal includes a flexible substrate on one surface of which is formed an electrically conductive pattern having a number of electrodes. Each of the electrodes is coated with a layer of a corrosion resistive material, such as titanium. An insulating layer extends over this surface of the substrate and has apertures therethrough aligned with the electrodes. A conductive ground plane layer is then applied over the insulating layer and also has apertures therethrough which are aligned with each of the electrodes. The stimulator is placed against the user so that the coated electrodes are in contact with the skin. In response to the received electrical signal, each electrode is sequentially stimulated by a negative and a positive electrical pulse.
