  • Publication number: 20140258849
    Abstract: A plurality of content items for a content stream is determined by a system. The system estimates size dimensions for the content items, and determines a multidimensional layout by placing the content items into two or more adjacent containers based on the size dimensions. The system determines a difference in size between the two or more adjacent containers and adjusts an aspect of one or more of the content items to substantially equalize a size of the two or more containers.

  • Patent number: 4922386
    Abstract: A projection-type vehicle headlight includes a sheet metal support (11) which provides a light shield (3) between a convex lens (2) and a reflector (1). The support is rigid and has arms (12) which are fastened to the ellipsoid-formed reflector. The arms are appended to a lens frame (13), which receives the lens, of the support. The light shield is in the form of a spherical bulge which extends, or is convex, toward a light source (5), the bulge being produced by "drawing out" areas of the support lying within the lens frame. A light shield edge (6) is formed by "blanking out" an opening in a top half of the spherically shaped bulge.
