Patent number: 9140103Abstract: A releasable guidepost extension is used on the seabed together with a bottom fixed guidepost part. These parts make up a guidepost for use during the lowering of a component from the surface of the water to a subsea structure. The guidepost part includes an upward (in use position) projecting end designed for engagement with a lower (in use position) end of the guidepost extension. The guidepost extension is loosely connected to the bottom fixed guidepost part via a pin and socket part on respective ends. A gap, or clearance, exists between the pin and socket part in the longitudinal direction, and at least one friction forming device arranged in the gap on either the pin part or in the socket part. The friction forming device does not get in contact, or engaged, with the other part unless the guidepost extension is subjected to a lateral force.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2011Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: AKER AUBDEA ASInventors: Johan Larsson, Mathias Larsson

Patent number: 8097198Abstract: A method for producing an article of composite material. A female molding tool is provided. A form bag is provided. At least one prepreg is placed in the molding tool. A heel shaped hard tool part. A hard tool part is placed at the female tool close to an edge of the laminate being placed in the mold. The form bag is placed in the female tool so that the bag seals towards the heel shaped tool part, in such a way that, at a later air evacuation of the bag, an increased pressure that the bag will apply towards the laminate reaches a radius before the pressure reaches an edge.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2006Date of Patent: January 17, 2012Assignee: SAAB ABInventors: Max Krogager, Mathias Larsson, Claes Rudqvist, Jan Vaara

Patent number: 7571382Abstract: In a method and a system for retrieving images in a client-server system, images are stored as a set of independently decodable units (CU's) on the server. A client issues a series of requests for image information. Each request contain a request number, information on what image information the client wants to see next and information on what image information the client had received at the time when the request was issued. The server does not have to store any state information (e.g. previous requests). On receiving a request, the server sends a restart marker, a confirmation of the request number and incremental image information corresponding to the request. The use of the method and the system as described herein will result in that no decoding of the whole bit stream will be required in the server. This will save a lot of time at the sender side (server side), since it not needs to a full decoding of the stream.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 1999Date of Patent: August 4, 2009Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM EricssonInventors: Mathias Larsson, Charilaos Christopoulos, Magnus Jändel, Diego Santa Cruz, Touradj Ebrahmi

Patent number: 6931534Abstract: In a method and a device for partial encryption and progressive transmission of images, a first section of the image file is compressed at reduced quality without decryption, and a second section of the image file is encrypted. Users having access to appropriate decryption keywords can decrypt this second section. The first section together with the decrypted second section can then be viewed as a full quality image. The storage space required for storing the first and section together is essentially the same as the storage space required for storing the unencrypted full quality image. By using the method and device as described herein storage and bandwidth requirements for partially encrypted images is reduced. Furthermore, object based composition and processing of encrypted objects are facilitated, and ROIs can be encrypted. Also, the shape of a ROI can be encrypted and the original object can be decrypted and restored in the compressed domain.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 1999Date of Patent: August 16, 2005Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Erricsson (publ)Inventors: Magnus Jändel, Mathias Larsson

Patent number: 6804405Abstract: In a method and a system for encoding and transmission of still images having at least one region of interest (ROI), the ROI coefficients of an image transformed into the frequency domain, preferably using a wavelet transform are encoded so that they are transmitted first and can be decoded by a receiver without transmission of the boundary of the ROI. In a preferred embodiment the coefficients belonging to the ROI are shifted so that the minimum ROI coefficient is larger than the largest background coefficient. A receiver can then perform an opposite procedure and thereby obtain the ROI. By specifying how much the coefficients need to be shifted in order to avoid sending shape information several advantages are achieved. Thus, it is possible to avoid sending shape information and to avoid shape encoding at encoder side. Furthermore, there is no need for a shape decoder at receiver side, and there is no need for the receiver to produce the ROI mask.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2001Date of Patent: October 12, 2004Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Charilaos Christopoulos, Joel Askëlöf, Mathias Larsson
