  • Patent number: 10623881
    Abstract: A method, a computer readable storage medium, and an apparatus for determining a target sound scene at a target position from two or more source sound scenes. A positioning unit positions spatial domain representations of the two or more source sound scenes in a virtual scene. These representations are represented by virtual loudspeaker positions. A projecting unit then obtains projected virtual loudspeaker positions of a spatial domain representation of the target sound scene by projecting the virtual loudspeaker positions of the two or more source sound scenes on a circle or a sphere around the target position.

  • Publication number: 20170245083
    Abstract: A method, a computer readable medium, and an apparatus for multichannel audio playback adaptation. A user input defining a listening region relative to a loudspeaker arrangement is received via an input. A distance calculating unit determines minimal distances between the listening region and the loudspeakers. A comparator compares the determined minimal distances with a critical distance. A parameter setting unit then adapts output parameters for those loudspeakers for which the determined minimal distance is below the critical distance.

  • Patent number: 8142594
    Abstract: A method for the multi-track tailoring of transdermal therapeutic patches having at least a one-layer, adhesive reservoir foil containing an active ingredient, which is disposed between an adhesive back foil and a removable protective foil. The reservoir foils are applied per track with their adhesive layers on a transport element moving discontinuously in the longitudinal direction of the reservoir foils. After separating sections of the size of a patch or band aid the same are transferred to a further transport element that is moved continuously for depositing the same thereon in spaced relationship. The present invention provides a method for multi-track tailoring, wherein web-shaped reservoir foils, which can be unwound from rolls, may be utilized without producing any waste containing the active ingredient.

  • Patent number: 8005337
    Abstract: A synchronisation of the presentation or reproduction of video data with audio data is described, which data each are processed on two non-synchronised computers. An MPEG-type stream is separated into video data and audio data, wherein the video data is processed utilising the first processing means and the audio data is timestamped and forwarded to the second processing means which compares the received time-stamp to the local time. The transmission time periods of sending audio data packets from the first processing means to the second processing means are calculated based on the local system time and timestamp is inserted into the audio data packets. Subsequently, synchronised audio and video presentation or reproduction is performed.

  • Patent number: 7869466
    Abstract: The invention relates to the technical field of data transmission via a transmission link according to the TDM method, corresponding to time division multiplex. Such a method is used in an audio mixing console in order to transport the sample words of a plurality of audio channels jointly to an audio DSP processor and, after processing, to transmit them back from said processor to an output processor. Since the data output process is performed in an automated manner with the aid of a DMA unit, severe interfering noise can occur in cases of error, said noise also being output via the loudspeakers. The invention is based on the aim of avoiding such interfering effects. An error detection method based on the marking of data frames is used for this. For this purpose, a number of marking bits of the time slot of the data frame are set, the bit pattern of the marking bits being alternated in a defined sequence.

  • Patent number: 7175172
    Abstract: A process for introducing a plurality of segregated sheet-like administration forms into a dispenser under formation of a multilayered stack for individually dosable removal, with sheet-like tapes wound-up on rolls being present as starting material, utilizes the following steps. In a first step, a number of sheet-like layers of said tapes, which number corresponds to the stack, is simultaneously drawn from a plurality of rolls. In a further step, the individual tapes are united, using guide means, to form a multilayered strand, which in yet another step, is drawn forward to a cutting station where one length of stack is severed at a time, and wherein a length segment of the multilayered strand corresponding to the stack is substantially in the dispenser prior to being severed from a remainder of the multilayered strand by the cutting device.

  • Patent number: 6797105
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing hot-seal packs, in particular for transdermal therapeutic systems, by welding to one another, at predetermined linear regions and at polymer layers facing towards one another, two laps of continuous pack material composed of two or more layers. To this end, one (or two) sealing tool(s) are used to bring the pack material into contact with pressure and heat. To improve the quality of the welded seams without altering the cycle rate, according to the invention the sealing time is doubled and the temperature of the sealing tool(s) (1, 2) is reduced so that there is a considerable reduction in the temperature reached within the pack material (3, 4), this temperature then being only slightly above the melting point of the polymer used. An example of a sealing tool (1, 2) is given (FIG. 1).

  • Publication number: 20040017826
    Abstract: So that listeners can compile their radio service on an individual basis, broadcasts are classified according to the respective information content, and the broadcasts in each information class are sent in a respective data stream at parallel times. At the reception end, the data streams are simultaneously picked up, are possibly buffer-stored, and are forwarded to a reproduction device according to individual stipulations.

  • Patent number: 6571983
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for dispensing flat forms, such as labels, stickers, transdermal therapeutic systems, flat medicaments for oral application, etc, in a controlled manner. According to said method, the outer contour of the flat form (103) is punched out from a strip-shaped starting material and connecting bridges (105) hold the flat form (103) and the edge of the punched layer together. These connecting bridges (105) break when the flat forms are dispensed via a deflector edge (106). The inventive method can be advantageously used for packing individual flat forms in primary packaging. The invention also relates to a specialised punching device used in the method.
