The present inventions relates to electrophoretic displays that are switchable between a grayscale updating mode (502) and a monochrome updating mode (501). The monochrome updating mode (501) provides for extreme pixel states only (e.g. black and white), whereas the grayscale updating mode (501) provides for intermediate grayscale pixels states as well. According to the present invention, a suitably selected transition signal (504) is applied when switching from the grayscale updating mode (502) to the monochrome updating mode (501). The transition signal (504) involves a drive pulse that serves to reduce the level of remnant DC voltage otherwise occurring in each pixel due to differences in the grayscale updating mode (502) and the monochrome updating mode (501).

A software application that enables secure storing, displaying, organizing and transferring of electronic medical records (EMR) at a health care provider's office for future visits, storage, billing, insurance audits, and follow up of prescriptions and prescribed treatments. The EMR consists of physician notes, dictation, lab reports, images, patient histories, records, and can be stored and transferred in a plurality of manners. A smart card contains a microprocessor and includes an embedded chip that requires a PIN for access. In use the smart card is accessible by the health care provider entering their key card and PIN as well as the patient entering their own smart card and PIN. The patient then receives updated information on their smart card from their doctor. Next the patient can use the card to provide information to their insurance company, a pharmacy, hospital, or another health care provider.

A driving support device, a driving support method, and a computer program provide an image of the peripheral environment of a vehicle which is captured by a camera. The traveling state of the vehicle is obtained and, based on same, a blind spot region for a driver created by a right front pillar, as it would appear after a predetermined period of time, is calculated by taking into consideration the time lag between capture of an image by the camera and projection of that image by a projector. An image corresponding to the calculated blind spot region is extracted from the image captured by the camera, and the extracted image is projected onto the inside surface of the right front pillar.

A method for managing a non-violate memory is provided. The non-violate memory has a number of blocks, and each block has a number of sub-blocks. The method includes a number of steps. First, a last physical address is obtained. The last physical address corresponds to a sub-block which is close to another sub-block where data is newly stored. Next, it is determined, for each sub-block of at least one block, the validity of data being stored. The at least one block is at least one neighboring block of a block containing the corresponding sub-block of the last physical address. Then, a mapping table is produced according to the step of determining the validity of data.

The present invention provides a method, a control terminal and a system for accessing a network of devices based on wifi Beacon frames. The method includes receiving auxiliary network distribution information that can assist devices to be connected to the network, and filling the auxiliary network distribution information into the wifi Beacon In the frame, the wifi Beacon frame carrying the auxiliary distribution network information is sent out in the form of a wifi broadcast packet. When the device to be connected to the network monitors the wifi broadcast packet, it uses the auxiliary distribution network information carried by the wifi Beacon frame in the wifi broadcast packet. into the corresponding wireless router. In the process of sending wifi broadcast packets, the control terminal does not need intermediate routers for forwarding, which not only effectively solves the compatibility problem of different wireless routes, but also effectively avoids the problem of discarding broadcast packets caused by wireless routers when the network is very congested.
