Abstract: A method for coding information in an electronic circuit and an electronic circuit for coding information uses at least two electrically coupled signal paths (X0, X1). Cross-talk between two electrically coupled signal paths (X0, X1) can be utilized to perform logical computation. A signal is propagating on two signal paths (X0, X1) in the form of either rising or falling transitions. The relative delay between the transitions on the two paths (X0, X1) determines the logic value of the output signal (X) to be produced. If the signal on the first paths (X0) propagates faster than the signal on the second path (X1), an output signal (X) having a first logic value is produced. If the signal on the second path (X1) propagates faster than the signal on the first path (X0). an output signal (X) having a second logic value is produced.

Abstract: A method for compressing a sequence of digital images includes: comparing a reference image of the sequence of digital images to a subsequent image of the sequence of digital images. In response to the reference and subsequent images being the same within a predetermined threshold, 1) a count of a number of images discarded is incremented, 2) the subsequent image is discarded, and 3) the comparing step is repeated with a next subsequent image. In response to the reference and subsequent images not being within the predetermined threshold, 1) the count is initialized and 2) the comparing step is repeated using the subsequent image as the reference image. Rather than comparing whole images corresponding portions of the images can be compared and compressed independently.
