A gasket assembly and method of construction is provided. The assembly includes a carrier body having opposite planar surfaces with at least one media-conveying opening extending through the planar surfaces with at least one through opening spaced radially from the at least one media-conveying opening. Further, the carrier body has at least one projection formed of the material of the carrier body. The at least one projection extends from the at least one through opening outwardly from at least one of the planar surfaces. The assembly further includes an elastomeric material encapsulating the projection.

An electronic coupon or voucher display includes a dynamic time-limited visual indicator that permits personnel at a vendor or merchant to confirm the validity of the coupon or voucher based solely on visual inspection of the dynamic time-limited visual indicator, without the need for scanning of the coupon or voucher, input of a coupon or voucher code, or communication with the coupon or voucher issuer. Display of the dynamic time-limited visual indicator is store or location specific and initiated following selection of a store or location, notification that a coupon or voucher is available and indication by the user of an intention to redeem the coupon or voucher, and a determination that the coupon or voucher is accepted at a detected location of the portable electronic device on which the coupon or voucher is to be displayed.

An image processing method and system removes block artifacts in compressed image / video. Block artifacts are detected based on content analysis performed based on knowledge of the contents of the image / video. Then, a set of priority conditions is evaluated to generate a detection decision for each pixel at the block boundary. A higher priority is given to a short-term temporal processing result and a spatial processing result. The long-term temporal processing result and quantization information are treated as auxiliary information to adjust the strength of filtering. Depending on the result of the detection decision, appropriate filtering is applied to the pixel to remove the block artifacts.

Disclosed is a black matrix for a liquid crystal display device (LCD) having an impedance about equal to or more than 105Ω, a specific resistance about equal to or more than 1011 Ωcm, and a relative dielectric constant about equal to or less than 20 at a driving frequency of about 1 kHz to 100 kHz. The black matrix as disclosed has dielectric properties that minimize parasitic capacitance between the black matrix and the circuitry of the LCD, thereby preventing a signal delay in charging pixel electrodes that degrades the LCD image.

An apparatus and method for low noise imaging uses an image sensor, such as an EMCCD in which charges are accumulated and shifted out using analog clock signals. A sensor controller generates the clock signals from digital waveforms stored in memory units that provide outputs to digital-to-analog converters that, in turn, convert the signals to analog form. The analog signals are then amplified and applied to the sensor. The specific waveforms are determined by a digital signal processor and stored in the memories, and the desired waveforms are read out the memories using addressing provided by a field-programmable gate array. The clock signals may be sinusoids, or may be more complex waveform shapes, and the waveform shapes may be varied by a user. The clock signal rise times may be made gradual so as to minimize noise contributions.

Interactive media systems and methods are provided for substituting pause-time content in place of media that has been paused. The user may pause media such as real-time media, video-on-demand media, near video-on-demand, or recorded media. If the user pauses real-time media or near video-on-demand media, the interactive media application may store the media. The interactive media application may also provide the user with the ability to rewind, resume play of, and fast-forward the media. The pause-time content may be audio or video media and may be an advertisement, trivia, program summaries or any other suitable pause-time content. The interactive media application may provide customized pause-time content specific to the user or specific to the media paused by using media data associated with the media. The interactive media application may also prevent the user from accessing features (e.g., fast-forward) of the system.
