Abstract: A method for processing an encoded pattern, a storage medium, and an electronic device are disclosed in this application. An electronic device acquires a first encoded pattern to be recognized, the first encoded pattern being a pattern obtained after predefined information is encoded therein. The electronic device increases resolution of the first encoded pattern through a target model to obtain a second encoded pattern, the target model being obtained through training by using a predetermined third encoded pattern as an input and a predetermined fourth encoded pattern as an output, the third encoded pattern being obtained by decreasing resolution of the fourth encoded pattern, the third and the first encoded patterns being encoded in the same manner. Finally, the electronic device decodes the second encoded pattern using a code recognition module to obtain the predefined information. This application resolves the technical problem that an encoded pattern cannot be accurately recognized.

Abstract: Each of a horizontal chart generating unit and a vertical chart generating unit generate eight charts #0 to #7, the bright/dark sections being placed sequentially in equal distances. Each pattern of each charts #0 to #7, is shifted little by little. Each chart #0 to #7 is sequentially projected on a screen, and each of the sensor controllers obtains an average phase difference, by obtaining the sensor data obtained by the result of measuring, from the distance-measuring sensors, and obtains the angle between an ideal screen that is vertical to a center line of distance-measuring sensors and the screen, by obtaining the distance to the two distance-measuring points on the screen, based on the obtained average phase difference. A projector control unit replaces the angles that each of the sensor controllers obtains, to inclination angles ?H and ?V of the screen, and supplies the angles to a trapezoidal correction unit.

Abstract: A slide body of a rigid transparent material is sized to be received within a slide transparency projector. The slide body includes a bubble level indicator having a narrow arcuate chamber which is filled with a liquid to create a bubble of air trapped within a band of fluid. The bubble is displaceable within the arcuate chamber and remains at the highest point therein. When the slide is level, the bubble rests at the mid-point of the band. The slide body is also provided with a pattern of concentric rectangles and a pattern of markings to indicate the extent of deviation of the bubble from its position at the mid-point of the band. The arcuate band, bubble and pattern of markings are projected onto the screen by a projector to permit a projectionist to readily ascertain whether or not the projector is in focus and is level. The projector can then be focused and leveled by adjusting the focusing and leveling system of the projector.

A transmission mechanism within the base is responsive to movement of the platform for causing pivotal translation of a graduated transparency. A beam of light from a light source is projected along an optical path through the transparency and reflected to a projection screen carried by the platform for read-out of weight. The light source is carried on a support plate which is mounted to the base by means disposed at two points on a line at least substantially parallel to the optical axis and coincident with the optical axis substantially at a fixed axis of the graduated transparency. The transparency is pivotally mounted on the support plate and presents a convex face toward the light source.
