  • Patent number: 11206393
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for measuring a display latency. A video capturing device is configured to capture a video of a reference light flash of a light emitter of a computing device. In the same video, the video capturing device is configured to capture a flash of a predetermined image displayed in a reference frame on a display screen coupled to the computing device. The video is analyzed to determine a time difference between the reference light flash of the light emitter and the flash of the predetermined image on the display screen. The determined time difference is compared with a reference time difference to determine a display latency, and the display latency may be provided to a user. In this manner, a display latency may be determined accurately and with readily available hardware, thus reducing the need to rely on expensive and specialized measuring equipment.

  • Publication number: 20020007919
    Abstract: The invention relates to labeling machines in which the labels are obtained from a reeled film and transferred by means of an aspirating roller, first against a roller that applies a vertical strip or points of heated glue, then on the container which is transported over a pan rotating about its own vertical axis and supported by a carrousel, itself rotating about an axis parallel to the axis of the pan. The aspirating roller for transferring the label comprises contact points positioned along a circumference centered on the axis of rotation of the roller between said points the roller is considerably recessed relative to the aforesaid circumference.
