Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to generate blue noise masks for real-time image rendering and enhancement. In at least one embodiment, a vector-valued noise mask is generated and applied to one or more images to generate one or more enhanced images for image processing (e.g., real-time image rendering). In at least one embodiment, the noise mask includes vector values per pixel and is able to handle the temporal domain (e.g., add time to the spatial domain) to improve image quality when rendering images over multiple frames.

Abstract: A carton for containing a product. The carton comprises a plurality of panels that extends at least partially around an interior of the carton. The plurality of panels comprises a first end panel, a first side panel, a second end panel, and a second side panel. At least one top flap can be respectively foldably connected to a respective panel of the plurality of panels. The at least one top flap comprises at least an end top flap foldably connected to the second end panel. A dispenser can comprise at least a portion of the end top flap, a tear feature extending at least partially across the end top flap, and a dispenser pattern extending in at least a portion of the end top flap and the second end panel. The dispenser can be positionable between a dispensing position and a closed position after tearing the tear feature.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and method of synchronizing data streams from data acquisition processors. The system and method utilizes a common signal to data acquisition processors to trigger a measuring of the data sampling signal. These measurements are averaged and compared to an expected phase, whereby either of the data acquisition processor's data delivery rate are adjusted if the compound shows a difference greater than a maximum drift rate.

Abstract: An adsorbent is disclosed which uses an iron-containing metal oxide as an adsorbent for removing heavy elements from contaminated waters and method for the use of the same. The bed includes a non-stoichiometric ferrous oxide Fe1-xO, which is structurally in a Wustite crystal phase form having the rock salt, face-centered cubic lattice.

Abstract: An optical filter includes an array of light-transmissive beads in a matrix of light absorbing binder that surrounds one portion of the beads to provide light entrances and exit apertures for incident light to pass substantially only through the beads. A transparent layer under the light absorbing layer may serve to increase the diameter of the exit apertures. A structure or layer of light-dispersing material that exhibits anisotropic dispersion of incident light along orthogonal axes is disposed relative to the beads to disperse light within a wider output angle along one of the orthogonal axes than along another of the orthogonal axes.

Abstract: High spatial frequency optical noise in the form of intensity contrasting picture elements in the display of a projected light image on a bead-oriented image-enhancing filter is significantly reduced by interposing light-scattering material in the optical path between a source of the projected light image and the display in order to inhibit formation and interference of coherent light waves, and to mask the appearance of separate or discrete beaded apertures.
