  • Publication number: 20140024503
    Abstract: A martial arts training system has a solid body formed of resilient material with a front surface, a back surface, side surfaces, a top surface, and a bottom surface. The front surface has a number of holes arranged thereon for receiving at least one accessory member. The system has at least one accessory having an attachment section shaped and sized to be received in a hole of the front surface and a training section adapted to extend from the front surface to form a contact target, such as an arm, leg, or weapon.

  • Patent number: 8578323
    Abstract: A method, a system and a computer program product for hierarchical program source management retrieve a main program from a memory and initiate a layer representing a portion of the main program for editing on the display. Program code is edited within the layer in response to detected user programming inputs. A layer abstract syntax tree corresponding to the edited program code is generated. The layer abstract syntax tree is compared with a main program abstract syntax tree and a layer file is generated including the differences between the layer abstract syntax tree and the main program abstract syntax tree.

  • Patent number: 8478013
    Abstract: As an illustration of generating a motion map, although the cardiac CT is described for selecting an optimal phase, the disclosure is not limited to the cardiac CT. For the cardiac CT, the cardiac phase map is efficiently generated based upon helical scan data, and the optimal phase is selected within a reasonable time. At the same time, the optimal phase is accurately determined based upon complementary rays as indexes for minimal movement so as to select the projection data for minimizing artifacts in reconstructed cardiac images. The helically scanned data reflect motion within the same cardiac cycle or over the continuous cardiac cycles. The application of the complementary ray technique to the helically scanned data is accomplished by three-dimensionally determining a pair of the complementary rays in order to take into account motion within the same cardiac cycle or over the continuous cardiac cycles.

  • Patent number: 8270559
    Abstract: A method of reconstructing a volume image of an object includes receiving circle projection data collected by a detector along a circular path with respect to the object; receiving line projection data collected by the detector along a linear path with respect to the object; producing a reconstructed circle path volume image of the object from the pre-processed circle projection data using a reconstruction algorithm that includes a ramp filter; producing a reconstructed line path volume image of the object from pre-processed line projection data using a reconstruction algorithm that includes a Hubert filter; and combining the reconstructed circle path volume image and the reconstructed line path volume image to produce the volume image of the object. An apparatus and computer program product are also described.

  • Patent number: 7671428
    Abstract: A method for forming a MEMS device is disclosed, where a final release step is performed just prior to a wafer bonding step to protect the MEMS device from contamination, physical contact, or other deleterious external events. Without additional changes to the MEMS structure between release and wafer bonding and singulation, except for an optional stiction treatment, the MEMS device is best protected and overall process flow is improved. The method is applicable to the production of any MEMS device and is particularly beneficial in the making of fragile micromirrors.
