  • Publication number: 20080075433
    Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for the creation and use of voice tags in an electronic device. When tags are created an image handling unit receives a user selection of a voice tag that may be provided for locating at least one digital image, a sound recording unit records sound emitted by said user, which sound is stored as a sound file to be used as a tag for locating images. When image files are to be located the image handling unit receives the selection of searching for digital images using name tags from the user, the sound recording unit records sound emitted by said user, a voice recognition unit compares the sound with stored sound files and indicates a sound file corresponding to the received sound. The image file associated with the indicated sound file is then located.

  • Publication number: 20080036869
    Abstract: A device may include an image capture device and logic. The logic may be configured to receive voice input from a user and identify the voice input. The logic may further be configured to perform a control action associated with the image capturing device based on the identified voice input.

  • Publication number: 20070109555
    Abstract: A method and device for determining refractive index of an object compared to a refractive index of a surrounding medium. The object is exposed to a laser object beam and the scattered light interferes with a laser reference beam to obtain a hologram. The hologram is analyzed for phase information, and based thereon, it is determined if the refractive index of the object is higher or lower than the refractive index of the surrounding medium.

  • Publication number: 20070069940
    Abstract: An antenna structure including an antenna 10 with an outer main surface 11, where said antenna 10 is integrated in a surface of a surrounding material 20. Further comprising a transition zone 30 arranged along the perimeter of the main surface 11 and overlapping the main surface, where the transition zone 30 comprises a layer of a resistive material with a resistivity that varies with the distance from an outer perimeter of the transition zone 30 to enable a smooth transition of the scattering properties between the antenna 10 and the surrounding material 20.

  • Publication number: 20050259008
    Abstract: A wide band antenna array comprising patch elements and a ground plane, in which the array constitutes an infinite self-complimentary structure providing large bandwidth and utilizes dielectric slabs above the antenna elements. The dielectric slabs will match the impedance of the antenna elements to free space.

  • Publication number: 20050238118
    Abstract: A method for detecting a single or multi dimensional signal contaminated by additive Gaussian noise, and a detector using the method. The signal is an amplitude modulated sinusoid with known, but arbitrary, envelope and carrier frequency, but unknown uniform phase angle. The method comprises the step of calculating the integral for the likelihood ratio L ? ( X ) = 1 2 ? ? ? ? - ? ? ? L ? ? ( X ) ? ? ? ? ? analytically or numerically without limiting assumptions, and to make a comparison with a threshold value for deciding the question of detection.

  • Publication number: 20020023979
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a bearing arrangement for reels, primarily fly fishing reels. The device comprises a drum (11) having a bearing ring (13) which forms a side edge of the drum and which at its peripheral, outer surface has a track (16) to receive the bearing balls (5) which are held together by a ring (6), the drum being enclosed by a cage (8) having a first, inner bearing ring (7) which has a contact surface for the balls and which by a thread is connected to a second, outer bearing ring (4) which also has a contact surface or the balls. A free volume (15) is formed between the first bearing ring (7) and the second bearing ring (4). The free volume (15) may be varied by adaptation of the setting of the outer bearing ring (4).

  • Patent number: 6135557
    Abstract: The foldable stool has a triangular shaped seat with three upper legs attached to the corners of the seat. A leg holder is attached to the bottom portion of each upper leg. Lower legs are inserted into the leg holders. The foldable stool may also have additional leg segments that include a first lower engagement mechanism that is attached to the first lower leg. The first lower engagement mechanism protrudes radially outwardly from the first lower leg and is automatically movable between a lock position and a release position and insertable through the first opening of the first upper leg to lock the first upper leg to the first lower leg. The first lower engagement mechanism has a lower release surface upwardly protruding at a first acute angle relative to the first lower leg and an upper release surface so that the lower release surface and the upper release surface form a second acute angle.

  • Patent number: 5851052
    Abstract: The foldable stool has a triangular shaped seat with three upper legs attached to the corners of the seat. A leg holder is attached to the bottom portion of each upper leg. The leg holders define a lateral opening that has an asymmetrical shape. A Y-shaped central connector units holds the leg holders together. The connector has irregular shaped extensions that are insertable into the irregular shaped lateral openings of the leg holder when the leg holder is turned into a first position. After being inserted, the leg holder may be rotated into a second position to securely hold the leg holder and so that the upper leg can be inserted into the leg holder and rest on a circular seat or flange that is disposed inside the leg holder. Lower legs are inserted into the leg holders. When it is desirable to collapse the foldable stool, the lower legs are pushed into the upper leg by pressing the knob to disengage the knob from the leg holder.
