  • Publication number: 20240134261
    Abstract: A projection device, including a light source module and a color wheel, is provided. The light source module includes a plurality of solid-state lighting sources driven by a DC drive power to sequentially provide a first light generated by a first number of light sources, a second light generated by a second number of light sources and a third light generated by a third number of light sources within a response cycle, wherein the number of light sources to be turn on is less than or equivalent to a total number of solid-state lighting sources. The color wheel has a first block, a second block and a third block, respectively corresponding to the first to third lights, so that the projection device sequentially outputs a first color light with a first brightness, a second color light with a second brightness and a third color light with a third brightness.

  • Patent number: 6676936
    Abstract: The invention includes a chimeric virus for use in a vaccine preparation having a genome comprising nucleic acid sequences encoding at least one structural protein from one flavivirus and nucleic acid sequences encoding nonstructural protein from another flavivirus. The genome preferably includes mutations within the viral genome that reduce virus virulence and in a particularly preferred embodiment these vaccines are directed to flaviviruses such as dengue virus, tick-borne encephalitis virus and Japanese encephalitis virus. The invention also includes a baculovirus having a recombinant dengue cDNA sequence which encodes: (1) dengue virus capsid protein, pre-matrix protein, envelope glycoprotein and NS1 and NS2a nonstructural proteins or (2) dengue envelope glycoprotein or (3) dengue non-structural proteins NS1 and NS2a.
