Abstract: The present embodiments relate to an address generator circuit for addressing a storage circuit. The address generator circuit may generate address signals for read and write access operations at the storage circuit. The write access operation may store a two-dimensional array in the storage circuit and the read access operation may retrieve a transpose of the two-dimensional array from the storage circuit. The address generator circuit may include a status flag generation circuit that generates status flag signals, a modulo adder circuit that receives first and second signals and computes a modulo adder output signal, and an address processing circuit. The address processing circuit may receive the modulo adder output signal from the modulo adder circuit and the plurality of status flag signals from the status flag generation circuit and provide the first and second signals to the modulo adder circuit.

Abstract: Circuitry that accepts a data input and an enable input, and generates an output sum based on the data input includes an input stage circuit that includes an input register. The input register accepts the enable input. The circuitry further includes a systolic register operatively connected to the input stage circuit, and the systolic register is operated without any enable connection. The circuitry further includes a multiplier connected to the systolic register, which is configured to generate a product value. The circuitry further includes an output stage circuit that includes an adder that calculates the output sum based least in part on the product value.

Abstract: A method and system are provided in which average vehicle speeds of tolled and non-tolled road segments between two locations are monitored and saved for reference in providing dynamic adjustment of the toll amount to be charged for use of the tolled segment in order to insure an efficient use of the tolled segment and a determination of an appropriate toll amount to be charged drivers in the tolled segment in view of real time traffic conditions of the tolled and the non-tolled segment. The toll adjustments are determined based upon the difference between actual average speeds of the tolled segment and actual average speeds of the non-tolled segment such that the toll adjustments are dynamic and depend upon real time traffic conditions in both the tolled and non-tolled segments of the travel route.

Abstract: An apparatus, system and method of using RFID systems to help blind and visually-impaired individuals function efficiently in society without the use of canes and/or seeing-eye dogs are provided. Generally, each object may contain an RFID tag affixed thereto. The tag will include information needed to help a blind or visually-impaired individual. The individual may create a profile within which the individual may have indicated the means to use for conveying the information. It is envisioned that the individual will carry a battery-operated RFID reader for reading information from the RFID tags and for conveying the information in accordance with the conveying means indicated in the profile.

Abstract: A system, computer program product and method of preventing recordation of true keyboard acoustic emanations are provided. In an embodiment, it is determined whether a user has stricken a key on a keyboard. In response to the stricken key a keystroke sound from a mask which is dissimilar to a keystroke sound produced by the stricken key is emitted to drown out the keystroke sound of the stricken key. In another embodiment, when a plurality of keys is stricken, a random keystroke sound is emitted between keystroke sounds made by two stricken keys to blur out word boundaries.

Abstract: An interactive electronic device is disclosed, wherein the device includes a body, a controller disposed within the body, a touch-screen input coupled with the body, wherein the touch-screen input includes a transparent viewing field, a display output coupled with the body, wherein the display output includes a transparent portion positioned within the viewing field of the touch-screen input, and a background disposed behind the touch-screen input and the display output, the background including activity content, wherein the controller is configured to accept an input from the touch-screen input and to control the display of an output on the transparent portion of the display output.

Abstract: A toy for producing a three dimensional aesthetically pleasing illuminated image. The toy includes a handle, a light source, a rotary drive mechanism, and a plate-like member having an outer surface at least a portion of which is a holographic diffraction surface. The plate-like member is arranged to be rotated about a longitudinal axis so that light received by the holographic diffraction surface produces an aesthetically pleasing illuminated three-dimensional image. The plate-like member can be mounted so that it moves along the axis with respect to the handle as it is rotated and can include a transparent sphere containing a three dimensional object, e.g., a cartoon character, therein.
