Abstract: A wireless vehicle burglar-alarm system formed of an on-board main unit and a wireless communication is disclosed. The on-board main unit obtains the CGI (Cell Global Identity) of a wireless communication base station from its broadcast and stores the CGI in a memory, and sends a re-location signal to the on-board main unit when the storage CGI is changed during an alert mode of the on-board main unit, causing the on-board main unit to start the at least one alarm. The on-board main unit sends an alarm signal to an alarm and drives the wireless communication apparatus to send an alarm message to the car owner wirelessly upon detection of an abnormal condition of the car through a sensor.

Abstract: A mesh structure of tetraode field-emission display and a method of fabricating the same are disclosed. The mesh has a gate layer, an insulation layer and a converging electrode layer. The converging electrode layer is fabricated from a metal conductive plate adhered to one side of a glass plate, and a conductive layer is formed on the other side of the glass plate. The glass plate serves as the insulation layer, and the conductive layer serves as the gate layer. The converging electrode layer, the insulation layer and the gate layer are perforated with at least one aperture to establish a path of electron beam between an anode and a cathode of the tetraode field-emission display.

Abstract: A simple navigation system is disclosed in which a remote customer service center calculates an optimal route and selects a geo area covering all traveling routes of the optimal route. The geo area is defined by two boundary points, and equally divided by a pair of 2D grid number into multiple geo zones each defined with a respective pair of 2D index. The remote customer service center sends the two boundary points, the pair of 2D grid number, and multiple pairs of 2D indexes of traveling zones arranged orderly from a starting point to a destination to a car wirelessly. The car reconstructs a 2D grillwork with two boundary points, divides the 2D grillwork subject to the 2D grid number, defines each grid a pair of 2D index, and fines a guiding direction by comparing the pairs of 2D indexes of the current grid and the next traveling grid.
