Abstract: A method for processing data for display on a screen involves encoding, using a first colour space, a first portion of image data intended to be displayed on a first area of the screen and encoding, using a second colour space, a second portion of image data intended to be displayed on a second area of the screen. The encoded first and second portions of the image data are compressed, and transmitted over a link for display on the screen. By using different colour spaces to encode image data that is displayed in different parts of a screen, differences in a users vision and/or aberrations caused by display equipment may be accounted for and so provide an improved user experience. Using different colour spaces for different screen areas may also reduce the amount of data that needs to be transmitted, for example by encoding image data more effectively and/or allowing more efficient compression of data.

Abstract: A method of healing an image in a display system having a host device and a display control device includes generating healing updates corresponding to a region of the image and generating other display data at the host device, allocating, by the host device or the display control device, at least a portion of a resource of the display system to be used at least preferentially for at least one of encoding, decoding, transmitting and/or storing the healing updates rather than the other display data, encoding the healing updates and the other display data at the host device, transmitting the encoded healing updates and the other encoded display data from the host device to the display control device, decoding the encoded healing updates and the other encoded display data at the display control device, and healing the image using the decoded healing updates at the display control device.

Abstract: A method of presenting visual information on a screen (306) involves defining a boundary (314) delineating a first region of the screen (which may be towards a centre of the screen) from a second region of the screen (which may be towards a periphery of the screen), displaying a first portion of the visual information in the first region of the screen at a first display quality, and displaying a second portion of the visual information in the second region of the screen at a second, lower, display quality. The method further involves blurring the visual information for display in at least a portion of the second region. The location of the boundary (314) may change over time, and may be based on where a user is looking, or is expected to be looking, or on the type of information being displayed or based on other parameters.

Abstract: A method used in forming integrated circuitry comprises forming a stack of vertically-alternating tiers of different composition materials. A stair-step structure is formed into the stack and an upper landing is formed adjacent and above the stair-step structure. The stair-step structure is formed to comprise vertically-alternating tiers of the different composition materials. A plurality of stairs individually comprise two of the tiers of different composition materials. At least some of the stairs individually have only two tiers that are each only of a different one of the different composition materials. An upper of the stairs that is below the upper landing comprises at least four of the tiers of different composition materials. Structure independent of method is disclosed.

Abstract: Simulated motion of the papillary muscles in a heart simulator is provided that simulates natural motion of the papillary muscles. This improves heart valve simulation. This can be done with a six degree of freedom robotic actuator (e.g., a Stewart platform or the like) appropriately driven by a controller. This can also be done with a robotic actuator that provides constrained motion of its effector by including a mechanical linkage, as long as the resulting simulated papillary muscle motion includes time-varying position and orientation of the papillary muscle.

Abstract: In virtual-reality display devices it is possible to use head movement as an input to compression, which assumes that the user is looking at something that is moving at approximately the same rate in the same direction as the user's head. This method determines whether an eye of a user of a head mounted display is directed at a relatively fixed point. The method involves detecting (S51) a movement of the user's head, including a lack of movement thereof, determining (S53) a direction of the movement of the user's head, detecting (S52) movement of at least one eye of the user, including a lack of movement thereof, and determining (S54) a direction of the movement of the user's eye.

Abstract: Sensor information is received (S41) at a host device from a mobile device. A pose of the mobile device is then determined by the host device based on the received sensor information. The pose of the mobile device is compared with pose information (S42) of previous poses of the mobile device, each previous pose of the mobile device being associated with a performance level of the system for data transmitted from the host device and received and output at the mobile device having that previous pose.
