  • Publication number: 20090221210
    Abstract: An amusing display ornament is provided with at least one support rod disposed on a base, and a toy figurine or model suspended ornament disposed on each of the support rods. A bottom portion of each of the support rods is connected to a transmission module driven by a drive module positioned within the base. When the drive module is actuated, the support rods are caused to rotate or move in an up and down fashion by means of the transmission modules, thereby causing synchronous movement of the toy figurines or the model suspended ornaments disposed on the support rods. The base can be further installed with a control unit and connected to a USB (Universal Serial Bus) port of a computer, thereby enabling power and musical digital data to be acquired through the USB port, and enabling the suspended ornaments to play music when moving.

  • Publication number: 20090195543
    Abstract: Methods and systems of verifying an animation applied in a mobile device may include a timer module that is programmed to time-slice the animation into multiple scenes at predetermined time points along a timeline of the animation. A first capture module is programmed to capture actual data of each scene at each of the time points while the animation is running. A first comparison module is programmed to compare the actual data of each scene with expected data of the corresponding scene to determine whether the actual data of each scene matches the expected data of the corresponding scene. A first output module is programmed to generate a verification failure if the actual data of any scene does not match the expected data of the corresponding scene, and generate a verification success if the actual data of each scene matches the expected data of the corresponding scene.

  • Publication number: 20090167856
    Abstract: A reverse sensing system displaying an overhead vehicle image includes a plurality of fisheye lenses, a trip computer, and a screen. The fisheye lenses are disposed on all sides of the vehicle to shoot the surrounding scene images of the vehicle. The trip computer reads the scene images, and executes a plurality of built-in image processing procedures to combine the scene images into an overhead vehicle image. The radially distorted scene images are corrected into the normal scene images through a distorted image correction procedure. The corrected scene images are rotated into projection scene images through a planar transition procedure. The images are retrieved according to the positions of the shooting lenses of the projection scene images so as to generate the overhead vehicle image through an image combining procedure.
