  • Publication number: 20070121013
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising one or more delay circuits, a shimmer detector circuit, an averaging circuit, and a multiplexer. The delay circuits may be configured to have a delay of one or more frame periods based on the format of the input video signal. The shimmer detector circuit may be configured to (i) determine which pixel locations in the input video signal exhibit the YC-interference noise oscillation pattern based on the input signal and the output of the delay circuits and (ii) generate a control signal in response to the output of the delays circuits and the input signal. The averaging circuit may be configured to calculate an average of the input signal and the output of the first delay circuit. The multiplexer may be configured to present (i) the input signal when the control signal is in a first state and (ii) the average signal when the control signal is in a second state.

  • Publication number: 20050230465
    Abstract: A container body with a container opening and a flap partially secured to the container body and completely covering the container opening is disclosed. The flap is secured to the container by a hinge or fold line and formed from the same substrate as the container body. The container body contains a first magnetic region adjacent to and surrounding the perimeter of the container opening. The flap contains a second magnetic region aligned with and opposite the container body's first magnetic region. The first and second magnetic regions are magnetically attracted to each other. The flap is held in a closed position by magnetic attraction between the flap's magnetic region and the container body's magnetic region.
