  • Patent number: 10750204
    Abstract: A processing system and method are provided for reconstituting a block of pixels from bins generated by a Mojette Transform, using a processing and calculation unit (UTC), a bin memory (MB), and a pixel memory (MP). The unit is configured to carry out the operations of reconstructing the pixels, which are performed by reading the bins in the bin memory, reading the reconstructed pixels in the pixel memory, and writing the reconstructed pixels in the pixel memory, such that the steps of reconstructing the pixels do not include an operation of writing bins in the bin memory.

  • Patent number: 10644726
    Abstract: A method for reconstructing a data block of size N is proposed. The data block was encoded using an erasure code to generate a set of Ns systematic symbol vectors and a set of Np parity projection vectors from a mapping of the data block onto a two-dimensional convex support. The method comprises: for each input vector that contains at least an erasure, updating the value of each erased symbol to a predetermined value; mapping the Ns input vectors with updated values onto the two-dimensional convex support, generating a reconstruction projection vector from the mapping of the Ns input vectors with updated values onto the two-dimensional convex support using an encoding projection direction; and generating an updated parity projection vector from the reconstruction projection vector and the parity projection vector generated using said encoding projection direction.

  • Patent number: 8939479
    Abstract: A bumper absorber (9) has a squared U-shaped cross section formed of: a vertical face (11) extending in a top-bottom direction and a vehicle width direction, and a top face (12) and a bottom face (13) respectively extending rearward from a top end and a bottom end of the vertical face (11). The bumper absorber (9) is configured such that the top face (12) and the bottom face (13) thereof are supported by the bumper reinforcement (10) via multiple attachment members (23 to 27), and an interval between the attachment members adjacent to each other in the vehicle width direction is set to decrease from end portions (9b) in the vehicle width direction toward a central portion (9a) in the vehicle width direction.

  • Publication number: 20110119860
    Abstract: An auxiliary vacuum device for a central vacuum cleaning system is location specific and comprises housing mountable externally on an inlet of a mounting plate of the system, a dedicated flexible concertina hose is provided on the device and a cleaning tool mounting probe is registrable with a docking station. When the probe is removed from the docking station, a lever may be moved in first and second directions to selectively activate and deactivate the motor of the central vacuum cleaning system and the device. When the probe is parked in the docking station the probe moves the lever in one of the directions and holds the lever in a deactivated configuration, thus deactivating the motor and the device and preventing activation thereof.

  • Publication number: 20110084310
    Abstract: A method of manufacture of a optical, photonic or optoelectronic component, including a so-called photonic slab or membrane that is traversed, in at least one internal region and according to a predetermined pattern, by a plurality of through openings having a micrometric or sub-micrometric transverse dimension, the method having the following steps: structuring of the surface of a substrate by an etching that produces holes in the substrate according to the pattern; depositing at least one layer of the photonic material forming the slab or membrane, by anisotropic epitaxial growth on the structured surface of the substrate around the opening of the holes.

  • Publication number: 20080203506
    Abstract: The invention concerns a capacitive junction including a region adapted to be traversed by an electromagnetic wave, and a dielectric layer interposed between two semiconductor material layers. The dielectric layer has a reduced thickness at the region, that is a thickness at the region less than its thickness at a contact of the junction. Such a junction is for instance used to form a modulator. The invention also concerns a method for making such a junction.
