When a gain correction is performed for the radiographed object image, the acquisition of the object image having a high grade quality and no artifact is realized. For that purpose, an image storing unit is provided for storing an image for correction radiographed based on conditions set with the table in a state in which no object exists to each operation modes of the plurality of operation modes; and an image processing unit is provided for performing a gain correction processing of the radiographed object image and performs the gain correction processing of the radiographed object image obtained based on the conditions set in the table of the operation mode selected by the selecting unit in a state in which the object exists using a corresponding image for correction extracted from the image storage unit based on the operation mode selected by the selecting unit.

A radiation image pickup apparatus which selectively executes a first reading operation driving a detection unit irradiated with the radiation to read a first signal value, a second reading operation driving the detection unit without being irradiated with any radiations before the first reading operation to read a second signal value, and a third reading operation driving the detection unit without being irradiated with any radiations after the first reading operation to read a third signal value, and subtracts a signal value produced by the processing of the second signal value and the third signal value from the first signal value, thereby reducing an offset component and random noises without lowering a frame rate and its control method are provided.

A touchscreen controller system determines the actual locations of multiple simultaneous touches by eliminating mutual capacitance between adjacent rows and columns during self-capacitance measurements and selectively enabling mutual capacitance during mutual capacitance measurements. During the self-capacitance measurements, the controller system generates a set of candidate touch locations, which includes the locations of real and ghost touches. During the mutual capacitance measurements, only the locations in the candidate set are measured and, from these measurements, the actual touch locations are determined. By limiting the mutual capacitive measurements to only a small subset of the locations over the entire touch panel, real touch locations are determined on a linear order. Also, by using on-chip integration capacitors, embodiments of the invention are able to perform each measurement in a single cycle.

Systems and methods for fast and sensitive standoff surface-hazard detection with high data throughput, high spatial resolution and high degree of pointing flexibility. The system comprises a first hand-held unit that directs an excitation beam onto a surface that is located a distance away from the first unit and an optical subsystem that captures scattered radiation from the surface as a result of the beam of light. The first unit is connected via a link that includes a bundle of optical fibers, to a second unit, called the processing unit. The processing unit comprises a fiber-coupled spectrograph to convert scattered radiation to spectral data, and a processor that analyzes the collected spectral data to detect and / or identify a hazardous substance. The second unit may be contained within a body-wearable housing or apparatus so that the first unit and second unit together form a man-portable detection assembly. In one embodiment, the system can continuously and without interruptions scan a surface from a 1-meter standoff while generating Raman spectral-frames at rates of 25 Hz.

Techniques and systems are provided for tracking objects in one or more images. For example, a trained network can be applied to a first image of a sequence of images to detect one or more objects in the first image. The trained network can be applied to less than all images of the sequence of images. A second image of the sequence of images and a detection result from application of the trained network to the first image are obtained. The detection result includes the detected one or more objects from the first image. A first object tracker can be applied to the second image using the detection result from application of the trained network to the first image. Applying the first object tracker can include adjusting one or more locations of one or more bounding boxes associated with the detected one or more objects in the second image to track the detected one or more objects in the second image. A second object tracker can also be applied to the second image to track at least one object of the detected one or more objects in the second image. The second object tracker is applied to more images of the sequence of images than the trained network and the first object tracker. Object tracking can be performed for the second image based on application of the first object tracker and the second object tracker.

A bi-stable active matrix (AM) display apparatus and a method for driving a display panel thereof are provided. The bi-stable AM display apparatus includes a bi-stable AM display panel, a scan driver, a data driver and a controller. A frame period is divided into a resetting phase and a determining phase. The controller resets pixels on a plurality of scan lines of the bi-stable AM display panel to a homotropic state in the resetting phase through the scan driver and the data driver. The controller writes frame information into the pixels on the scan lines in the determining phase through the scan driver and the data driver.

The present invention is directed to a method, computer program product, and system for performing physics simulations on at least one graphics processor unit (GPU). The method includes the following steps. First, data representing physical attributes associated with at least one mesh are mapped into a plurality of memory arrays to set up of a linear system of equations that governs motion of the at least one mesh depicted in a scene. Then, computations are performed on the data in the plurality of memory arrays using at least one pixel processor to solve the linear system of equations for an instant of time, wherein modified data representing the solution to the linear system of equations for the instant of time are stored in the plurality of memory arrays.
