Abstract: A wireless headset is provided, comprising: a microphone for receiving a first audio signal and for generating a corresponding microphone electrical signal; a portable receiver/transmitter electrically connected to the microphone for transmitting a first carrier frequency modulated according to the microphone's electrical signal; a remote receiver/transmitter for receiving and demodulating the modulated first carrier frequency to generate a first electrical signal corresponding to the microphone electrical signal, the remote receiver/transmitter also for transmitting a second carrier frequency modulated according to a second electrical signal; the portable receiver/transmitter also for receiving and demodulating the second modulated carrier frequency to generate a speaker electrical signal; and a speaker electrically connected to the portable receiver/transmitter for transforming the speaker's electrical signal into a second audio signal, one of the first and second carrier frequencies being above 900 Megaher

Abstract: A method and apparatus for cropping an image in digital form. The image to be cropped is represented as a first digital array which is operated on by an edge enhancement transformation to generate a second, binary digital array wherein edges of the image are emphasized. The second digital array is then partitioned into predetermined segments which are typically rows and columns of the array and the pixel values of each row and column are summed to generate brightness sums. The second digital array is then partitioned into a first, brighter, central group of rows and a second, less bright group consisting of upper and lower borders of rows; and a third, brighter, central group of column and left and right borders of columns in accordance with predetermined criteria relating to the brightness sums.
