Abstract: An interactive device is provided including a user interface arranged to define at least one display request including at least localization and display data, a network interface for transmitting a Web page data request correlated with a display request, a memory to receive the Web page data including mapping and/or object data. The device includes a Web interpreter for displaying a Web page, a three dimensional (“3D”) engine for calculating three-dimensional display data, and a display engine for displaying Web page data in three dimensions. The Web interpreter includes a driver operating in execution cycles for determining a list including at least one operation that may be a request for object and/or mapping data or processing by the 3D engine or the display engine of the received data, the driver executing the operation(s) according to the order of the operations, the number of requests, and the duration of the execution cycle.

Abstract: A process for increasing the scratch resistance of a composition comprising a thermoplastic organic polymer and a scratch resistant polymer composition per se. The process for increasing the scratch resistance of a composition comprising a thermoplastic organic polymer (P) comprises reactively mixing a thermoplastic organic polymer (A) and an organopolysiloxane (B) in a first step (I) at a temperature at which the thermoplastic organic polymer (A) and the organopolysiloxane (B) are in liquid phases to form a masterbatch. The organopolysiloxane (B) contains at least one functionality capable of reacting with the thermoplastic organic polymer (A) so that a copolymer of components (A) and (B) is formed in the masterbatch during the reactive mixing. The process further comprises a second step (II) of mixing the masterbatch with the composition comprising the thermoplastic organic polymer (P).

Abstract: An interactive device comprises a user interface (8) for defining display requests comprising at least location data and display data, a network interface arranged to issue a request for web page data corresponding to a display request, a memory (4) for receiving corresponding web page data, and a web interpreter (10) for displaying a web page from web page data. The web interpreter (10) comprises at least a WebGL interpreter and a 3D motor arranged to calculate, for given web page data comprising map data and object data, face data of at least one object associated with the object data, to group together said face data in face block data and transmit the face block data to the WebGL interpreter for the calculation of three-dimensional display data of said at least one object while maintaining a correspondence between at least some of the objects associated with the object data and the face data that corresponds thereto in the face block data.
