  • Publication number: 20120167129
    Abstract: A multimedia content output apparatus for filtrating multimedia content signals according to audience age includes an image capturing element, an age identifying module and a control circuit. The control circuit receives an image signal and a content-classification identifying message. The image capturing element captures an audience image for the age identifying module to analyze the audience image and obtain an age identification value according to the audience's age. The control circuit loads plural age identification value ranges, and preset content-classification codes corresponding to each of the age identification value ranges. Then the control circuit determines whether the content-classification identifying message matches with the preset content-classification code corresponding to the age identification value range. If matched, the control circuit transforms the image signal as a display driving signal and outputs to a display unit for displaying images.

  • Publication number: 20120005694
    Abstract: The present invention is to provide a breakproof tray structure of an optical disc drive, which includes a tray and a resilient member. The resilient member has one side connected to an end of the tray and an opposite side connected to a loading/ejecting mechanism of the optical disc drive. The resilient member is made of a flexible material such as rubber. Thus, when the tray is subjected to an external force while being pushed out from an opening of the optical disc drive by the loading/ejecting mechanism, the resilient member will deform elastically for absorbing the external force and support the tray Effectively preventing the tray from being damaged by the external force and, once the external force is removed, the resilient member will return to its original shape for allowing the tray to be pushed back into the optical disc drive by the loading/ejecting mechanism through the opening.
