  • Publication number: 20070231765
    Abstract: Traditional orthodontic treatment often involves the use of basic repositioning devices, such as braces, and the use of supplementary devices, components or accessories to achieve desired end results. Such components may be mounted on fixed, non-removable devices or they may be part of a removable appliance typically worn prior to the application of the fixed devices. As with traditional treatment, it may be desired to utilize similar components when repositioning teeth with removable elastic repositioning appliances. Due to the nature of elastic appliances, such components may take a variety of forms ranging from readily available traditional accessories to specially created devices. Thus, traditional components may be mounted on or embedded in an elastic appliance, or the appliance may be formed to provide similar components. Likewise, the appliance may be modified to provide additional features for specific orthodontic treatments.

  • Publication number: 20070098215
    Abstract: A method and device for generating and decoding an image code without a direction finder pattern are provided. In the method of generating an image code, a two-dimensional image is generated by encoding the configured basic information and the error correction information, and disposing the encoded basic and error correction information in predetermined regions, respectively. It is determined whether the two-dimensional image can be decoded for directions which are different from a basic direction of the two-dimensional image, respectively, and the two-dimensional image is output as a physical or electronic image code when a result from decoding for the directions which are different from the basic direction of the two-dimensional image is the same as a decoding result for the basic direction, or when decoding cannot be performed for a direction which is different from the basic direction.

  • Publication number: 20060146245
    Abstract: Disclosed is a thin film transistor substrate for a fringe filed switching type liquid crystal display device, and a fabrication method thereof, that reduces the number of required mask processes, and thus improves fabrication efficiency. The fabrication method involves three mask processes, wherein the masks are partial transmitting masks, and the resulting photo-resist patterns have varying thicknesses. By having photo-resist layers of varying thicknesses, structures can be formed in multiple etching steps using the same photo-resist pattern by incrementally removing the photo-resist according to its thickness. The thin film transistor substrate has a common line, a common electrode, a gate line and a gate electrode formed directly on the substrate. The common electrode overlaps the pixel electrode in the pixel area.
