Abstract: A noise reducing circuit for video images. A motion detector outputs a first difference between a first video signal and a second image signal. A compensation signal producing circuit generates a compensation signal in accordance with the first difference. The compensation signal is outputted in accordance with a third signal supplied to the compensation signal producing means. A subtracter subtracts the compensation signal from the first video signal to output a second difference between the compensation signal and first video signal. The second difference has the same image information as the first image signal with noise eliminated. An image delaying circuit or memory receives the second difference from the subtracter and outputs a delayed second difference signal. The delayed second difference signal has a delay time of at least one frame and is outputted as the second image signal.

Abstract: This invention provides a process for coloring expandable beads of polystyrene resins which comprises suspending expandable beads of a polystyrene resin and a dye in water in a closed vessel and heating this aqueous suspension at a temperature above the softening point of the expandable beads, wherein the closed vessel is filled up almost completely with the aqueous suspension and heating is conducted without further addition of any blowing agent, whereby the expandable beads are impregnated uniformly with the dye. According to this process, uniformly colored expandable beads of polystyrene resins are obtained at a high efficiency of dye impregnation without using any impregnation aid or the like, the expandable beads being capable of forming beautiful molded foams of uniform color.
