  • Patent number: 10488922
    Abstract: A device may be configured to provide a graphical user interface that is specifically designed for use in a person's non-foveal vision. Via a graphical user interface for non-foveal vision, a user may interact with the device without focusing his or her foveal vision on a touchscreen of the device. Thus, the user may operate the device and its applications entirely and exclusively without using his or her foveal vision. For example, the user may operate the device exclusively using his or her peripheral vision or using no vision whatsoever.

  • Patent number: 6563258
    Abstract: A color cathode ray tube has a phosphor screen and an electron gun. The electron gun includes an electron beam generating section for emitting three in-line electron beams toward the phosphor screen and an electron beam focusing section for focusing the electron beams onto the phosphor screen. The electron beam focusing section includes at least one cup-shaped electrode having a tubular portion and a flange formed continuously from the tubular portion. The tubular portion has a generally rectangular cross section having an outwardly curved portion at each side thereof in a direction of arrangement of the three in-line electron beams in a plane perpendicular to the color cathode ray tube axis, the flange has a generally rectangular cross section having an outwardly curved portion at each side thereof in the direction of arrangement of the electron beams in the plane perpendicular to the color cathode ray tube axis, and the flange is formed with a locally thinned-down portion.

  • Patent number: 5847500
    Abstract: In an electron gun for a cathode ray tube in which a focus electrode group includes a single platelike electrode having three apertures arrayed in one plane and a thickness equal to a depth of each of the three apertures, a tapered surface is formed on the entrance side and/or exit side of each of the three apertures, the tapered surface having a diameter larger than the aperture diameter and having a linear or curved shape in cross section, and a step which extends in the direction of the depth is formed around an aperture periphery of the tapered surface. With this constitution, the concentricity between each of the tapered surfaces and a respective one of the apertures can be measured with high precision on the basis of the boundary between each of the tapered surfaces and the corresponding one of the steps, thereby improving the precision of measurement of the concentricity between each of the apertures formed in the platelike electrode and the tapered surface formed around the aperture periphery.

  • Patent number: 5083180
    Abstract: A lateral-type semiconductor device is provided in which a p-emitter layer and a p-collector layer are formed on the exposed-surface side of an n-base layer. The exposed surfaces of the p-emitter layer and the n-base layer are substantially surrounded by the exposed surface of the p-collector layer. The n-base layer is connected to a base electrode or through a first heavily-doped region extending from under the n-base region to an exposed surface area on the outer-periphery side of the p-collector layer. In an alternative embodiment a second heavily-doped region for connecting the n-base layer and the first heavily-doped region can be provided.
