The object detection system includes a processor for defining the area of interest into at least a first and a second zone; a controller for assigning a first and a second weight to the first and the second zone, respectively, wherein the first weight is higher than the second weight; and a first image capturing device for capturing an image of the target object appeared in the first zone prior to capturing an image of the target object appeared in the second zone. With these arrangements, the detection of at least one target object appeared in more than one zone having a specific weight assigned thereto may be implemented with improved efficiency and accuracy in object selection and reduced interferences from environmental variables.

Abstract: A direct-type backlight module includes a light-guide plate. The light-guide plate has a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The first surface has at least one first groove. The backlight module may also include at least one light source. The light source corresponds to the first groove so that light emitted from the light source is reflected by the first groove.

With the light-guide plate in place, the overall thickness of the backlight module is reduced, and the lamp mura is avoided.

Abstract: A system and method for variable-resolution image saving includes an image capturing member, a data saving member, and an image data processor. A first panoramic image data is captured by the image capturing member in high resolution. The image data is then analyzed and divided into target area and background area. The resolution of background area is lowered to reduce the size of image data. A second panoramic image is then formed with the target area in original high resolution and background area in lower resolution. In this way, memory size and time required for storing and transmitting the second panoramic image data are greatly reduced without loosing important features of the target area.

Abstract: A method of blocking a SMS (short message service) message in a mobile terminal is provided. A first message indicating an incoming SMS message is received. It is first determined whether a SMS function of the mobile terminal has been temporarily disabled. If yes, a second message indicating that the mobile terminal is out of memory space is generated. The second message is later sent to a server to discard the first message.

Abstract: A method of fabricating light emitting diodes (LED) with a colour purifying diffraction lattice (CPDL) is suggested, the essence of the invention is in the use of the coherent scattering of the light by the CPDL for colour purifying of the light emitted by the LED and enhancement its extraction efficiency, the CPDL is a hexagonal two-dimensional periodical pattern on the surface of the LED structure or an internal interface resulting in the periodical variation in the refractive index with the period d The period of CPDL satisfies the equation d=m.lamda./n, where m is a positive integer number, .lamda. is the wavelength of the light generated by LED, and n is the refraction index of LED structure. The height of the hexagonal islands forming CPDL is h=.lamda.(2l+1)/2n, l is a positive integer number or zero. Use of CPDL allows to convert the laterally propagating light into the vertically propagating and simultaneously filter its spectrum.
