  • Publication number: 20220330739
    Abstract: A press device for pressing powders in a container is provided. The press device has a compact structure that can be operated by one hand of a user and comprises an operation element, a pressing element, a body and at least one elastic element, wherein the at least one elastic element is provided between the operation element and the pressing element. A surface of the pressing element is urged by the force provided by the at least one elastic element to press the powders in the container.

  • Patent number: 9648234
    Abstract: A 360 degree camera system includes a support structure, a plurality of image capture devices, a plurality of lens systems, and an image processing system. The image capture devices are positioned such that their height is greater than their width. The image processing system includes a rotation module for remapping the pixel addresses of the image data to join the captured images along their long edges.

  • Patent number: 8866913
    Abstract: Systems and methods for calibrating a 360 degree camera system include imaging reference strips, analyzing the imaged data to correct for pitch, roll, and yaw of cameras of the 360 degree camera system, and analyzing the image data to correct for zoom and shifting of the cameras. Each of the reference strips may include a bullseye component and a dots component to aid in the analyzing and correcting.

  • Publication number: 20070189098
    Abstract: A memory module with independently adjustable power supply is disconnected from a main board of a computer using the memory module, and includes a rectification circuit provided thereon. The rectification circuit is connected to a power supply of the computer, so that a supply voltage of 12V of the power supply is rectified by the rectification circuit and then supplied to the memory module, so that the memory module obtains stable and sufficient power. Wherein, the 12V voltage is input to the rectification circuit via a 12V 4-pin connector for a 1.44 MB floppy disk drive of the computer. The rectified power can be changed to different voltage values by a variable resistor in the rectification circuit to satisfy memories of different brands.

  • Publication number: 20010041012
    Abstract: The invention provides a parallel data processing device having an array of parallel processing elements (LPA1 . . . 320) for processing a signal to obtain parallel streams of data, and means (TSMM1 . . . 80) for shuffling the parallel streams of data in a block-wise manner. The data shuffling means (TSMM1 . . . 80) have an array of addressable switch memory matrices (TSMM1 . . . 80) which are each coupled to a predetermined number of processing elements (LPA1 . . . 320). The array of switch memory matrices (TSMM1 . . . 80) solves data flow limitations of highly parallel linear array processors as well as intermediate storage requirements of image processing algorithms. In a camera system the parallel data processing device is combined with a sensor array (S).
