Abstract: A positioning system comprises a sweeper and a positioning device arranged on a ceiling. The sweeper has a lighting component for emitting light. The positioning device at least has a height measuring unit and a plurality of light-sensitive units. The positioning device measures a vertical distance between the positioning device and a floor through the height measuring unit. The positioning device receives the light emitted from the emitting light of the sweeper through the light-sensitive units, and calculates an oblique distance between the positioning device and the sweeper based on different strengths of the light respectively received from each of the plurality of light-sensitive units. Therefore, the positioning device can calculates a parallel distance between the positioning device and the sweeper based on the vertical distance and the oblique distance, and further determines a related position of the sweeper opposite to the positioning device.

Abstract: A plant cultivation apparatus includes a box, an illumination module, a thermoelectric cooling chip, a first heat dissipation module, and a second heat dissipation module. The box has a cover and a planting space. The cover has a first space and a second space separated from each other. The first space communicates with a surrounding environment. The second space communicates with the planting space. The illumination module assembled to the cover and located in the first space provides the planting space with light. The thermoelectric cooling chip assembled to the cover has a heating side located in the first space and a cooling side located in the second space. The first heat dissipation module located in the first space is thermally connected to the heating side and the illumination module. The second heat dissipation module located in the second space is thermally connected to the cooling side and the planting space.

Abstract: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection structure with a ground ring and a plurality of pads are provided, wherein the ground ring has a ring inner area used for disposing an integrated circuit (IC) and the pads are disposed around the outer periphery of the ground ring. The ground ring has a plurality of sawtooth structures, wherein each of the sawtooth structures has a sharp end which is adjacent to the corresponding pad.

Abstract: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection structure and an electronic device using the same are provided. The ESD protection structure includes a discharge structure and a conduction structure, wherein the discharge structure and the conduction structure respectively have a pointed end, and the pointed ends thereof are adjacent to each other. The discharge structure and the conduction structure are both disposed on a bottom side of a printed circuit board (PCB) substrate, wherein the conduction structure is connected to a ground line and the discharge structure is connected to a signal line disposed on a top side of the PCB substrate through a via. Therefore, the top side of the substrate is not required to save a layout region for disposing the ESD protection structure, and moreover an original ESD protection effect is still maintained.

Abstract: A method having a summary function for a calculator is proposed. The method is matched with the operation of software program to let the calculator have both the functions of accounts check and surplus calculation. First, data of the desired items selectively recorded by the user are stored in a memory. A summary mode is then entered into to check each piece of subtotal data one by one for use of accounting of one day or one week. Moreover, each piece of data in the memory can be summed up. Thereby, the convenience in use of the calculator can be enhanced for stores or shop employees.

Abstract: Application structure of bicolor liquid crystal display including a driving integrated circuit having at least ⅛ duty period, ¼ bias LCD output and even number of common points. The segment points of the driving integrated circuit are simultaneously respectively connected to corresponding segment points of two liquid crystal panels of the bicolor liquid crystal display. Two halves of the common points of the integrated circuit are respectively connected to the common points of the two liquid crystal panels. In cooperation with a preset driving software, the liquid crystal display uses two colors to respectively display the results of operation or data processing with different properties.

Abstract: This invention relates to a display method for query by tree search which method is to have several rows of symbols (such as alphabet or character) used for query appeared on display screen first; then to click one of said rows of symbols and the clicked rows of symbols are longitudinally arrayed as column and appeared on said display screen; after further to click the symbol going to be clicked, all words saved with the same initial as said symbol clicked are appeared on said display screen; and subsequently to click the queried word to show all information related to the queried word on said display screen.
