  • Patent number: 12149744
    Abstract: An apparatus for decoding a sequence of pictures from a data stream is configured for decoding a picture of the sequence by deriving a residual transform signal of the picture from the data stream; combining a residual transform signal with a buffered transform signal approximation of a previous picture of the sequence so as to obtain a transform signal representing the picture, the transform signal having a plurality of transform coefficients; and subjecting the transform signal to a spectral-to-spatial transformation. The apparatus is configured for deriving the buffered transform signal approximation from a further transform signal representing the previous picture so that the buffered transform signal approximation has approximations of further transform coefficients of the further transform signal.

  • Patent number: 12139605
    Abstract: A mixture contains at least one polyether block amide (PEBA) and at least one poly(meth)acrylate, selected from poly(meth)acrylimides, poly-alkyl(meth)acrylates, and mixtures thereof. The mass ratio of PEBA to poly(meth)acrylate is 95:5 to 60:40. The polyalkyl(meth)acrylate contains 80% by weight to 99% by weight of methyl methacrylate (MMA) units and 1% by weight to 20% by weight of C1-C10-alkyl acrylate units, based on the total weight of polyalkyl(meth)acrylate. The mixture can be processed to give foamed mouldings. The mouldings can be used in footwear soles, stud material, insulation or insulating material, damping components, lightweight components, or in a sandwich structure.

  • Patent number: 11808713
    Abstract: An ion-jet electron-entangled pathogens analyzer imprinted on a test strip resembles the functionality of a scanning tunneling microscope as a hand-held device, to quickly detect pathogens in water and food products on their bioelectrical signature. The use of such a device does not require special training or preparation. The test strip consists of an integrated circuit which gets energized and communicates over a weak alternating electric field provided by a matchbox-sized base station, which also contains a trained machine learning module of bioelectrical pathogen signatures. The base station connects wirelessly to smart devices or networks for further processing or recording the measurement results in a blockchain. The base station can be worn as a smartwatch or attached to processing machines, transportation vehicles, warehouses, shelves and grocery stores.
