  • Publication number: 20110148326
    Abstract: A two-wired LED light adjusting system, for controlling the luminance adjustment for a LED lamp module. The light adjusting circuit includes a phase modulating circuit, a LED driving circuit and a controller. The phase modulating circuit generates a phase modulating voltage. The controller detects the phase modulating voltage of various waveforms. When the controller detects the phase modulating voltage of different waveforms, the controller controls the LED driving circuit to enable the LED lamp module to emit light of different luminance according to waveforms of the phase modulating voltage.

  • Publication number: 20100284619
    Abstract: A face detection apparatus and a face detection method thereof are provided. The face detection apparatus includes a rectangle integral image unit, a feature mapping unit and a cascade and score unit. The rectangle integral image unit provides a rectangle integral image according to an original image. The feature mapping unit determines a face candidate region according to rectangular face feature templates, and calculates feature values of the rectangular face feature templates according to the rectangle integral image. The cascade and score unit judges whether the face candidate region conforms to cascade conditions or not, and gives the face candidate region a score according to the feature values when the face candidate region conforms to the cascade conditions. The face candidate region is a non-face region if the score of the face candidate region is lower than a threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20100092689
    Abstract: A long-lasting water-repellency textile application that uses a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-containing polyurethane (PU) involves a manufacturing process of NCO-terminated PU prepolymer of PDMS diols and polyisocyanate with a catalyst for forming a moisture-curable PDMS-containing PU oligomer, or becoming an UV-curable PDMS-containing PU oligomer after a chemical reaction takes place. The PU oligomer owns PDMS moiety with water-repellent properties. The moisture- or UV-curable PU with NCO and acrylate end-groups can create cross-linked polymeric networks between fibers of textiles by exposing to the air or UV-radiation. The final cross-linked PDMS-containing PU treated textile demonstrates long-lasting water-repellent properties with an excellent soft hand feel and a breathable feature. Furthermore, the textile water-repellent treatment is cost-effective, and most importantly these two different curing processes could be carried out at ambient temperature without requiring any waste water discharge.

  • Publication number: 20080194723
    Abstract: An ambient temperature curable hydrophilic PU oligomer includes a PU pre-polymer having a hydrophilic center group and a curable terminated group. The ambient temperature curable hydrophilic PU oligomer includes the moisture-curable hydrophilic PU oligomer such as isocyanate-terminated PU pre-polymer and free-radical curable hydrophlic PU oligomer. The isocyanate-terminated PU pre-polymer is synthesized by mixing at least one multi-isocyanate, at least one polyol and one or more diol monomer with hydrophilic group. The acrylate-terminated PU oligomer is synthesized by adding 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) into the isocyanate-terminated hydrophilic PU pre-polymer. Either acrylate- or isocyanate-terminated PU oligomer can be applied on a textile or a glass surface with a thin-layer coating technology. The curing reactions of these hydrophilic thin-layer coatings are carried out with moisture or UV-radiation, respectively, at ambient temperature.

  • Publication number: 20070299211
    Abstract: Self-polymerization of mono-aziridine (or azetidine) and multi-aziridine (or azetidine) containing compounds with vinyl group containing organic acid, such as acrylic acid (AA), 2-methylenesuccinic acid, 2,3-dimethylenesuccinic acid and etc, at ambient temperature results in the new type of cross-linked and linear type copolymers, respectively. The polymerization of multi-functional aziridine (or azetidine) containing compounds with vinyl group containing organic acid results in the formation of high cross-linked polymers. The self-polymerization takes place at ambient temperature and the resultants, cross-linked polymeric networked materials, are solvent insoluble and potential for adhesive, composite matrix and other applications. These insoluble materials are hydrolyzed in an acidic or basic condition to form the water soluble ?-amino acids.

  • Patent number: 7223923
    Abstract: A PCB comprises a slender substrate, a thermal compression area and at least a slit. The thermal compression area, placed on the slender substrate, has a plurality of bonding pads for a plurality of TCPs to be mounted thereon and a plurality of dummy pads placed between the TCPs. The slit transversely crosses the thermal compression area and slices some of the dummy pads. When the TCPs are connected to the bonding pads of the PCB, the thermal compression area is heated to around 150° C. to 200° C. Therefore, the slit can block the thermal expansion to be accumulated along the longitudinal direction of the thermal compression area.
