  • Enhanced nickel plating process
    Patent number: 11192822
    Abstract: A method for plating nickel onto a glass surface of a substrate by sequentially contacting the surface with a solution having an oxidizing agent, a solution containing a silane compound, a Pd/Sn solution, and a nickel ion-containing solution, thereby accomplishing an electroless nickel plating process.
    Type: Grant

  • Progressive JPEG decoding system
    Publication number: 20060067582
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for efficient decoding progressive JPEG bitstreams are invented. This invention provides a memory-efficient progressive JPEG decoding method with minimal memory requirements. Instead of storing all the DCT coefficients of at particular decoding scan, a portion of DCT coefficients and the non-zero coefficient indicators for the rest of the DCT coefficients are stored in either original data format or in a compressed format. The memory requirement for decoding progressive JPEG pictures can be minimized according to the resolution of display devices in the real applications.
