A new touch screen design provides for corrections of non-uniformities, more accurate touch point measurement, and multiple simultaneous touch point measurements through the use of a grid of relatively conductive lines.

An optical reading apparatus and optical character recognition processing apparatus operating in conjunction with a magnetic ink character reading apparatus reduce the time in reading a string of characters formed in a line on a processed medium. This is done in the optical reading and recognition operations by selectively using a broad recognition area that allows for variation in character positions and a narrower recognition area where the probability of the desired character string being present is high depending on past results. An extracted image containing the character string is acquired from scanned image data and the recognition process is run. If recognition succeeds, the next matching area is set to a relatively narrow predicted range and the recognition process is applied to the predicted range. If character recognition succeeds within a specified distance, the next matching area is set to a relatively narrow predicted range. If character recognition does not succeed within the specified distance, the next matching area is set to the full width of the extracted image.

A gas turbine engine component includes a ring element and a plurality of circumferentially spaced load carrying vanes extending in a radial direction of the ring element. At least one of the vanes is made of a composite material. The at least one composite vane is fastened to the ring element. The component further includes first and second wall portions that are fixed in relation to the ring element and arranged on opposite sides of the composite vane. At least a first hole extends through the first wall portion, the composite vane and the second wall portion. The first hole is adapted to receive a first insertion member. The component is arranged such as to, with regard to the first hole, provide a tight fit for the first insertion member in the first wall portion as well as in the composite vane and to provide a loose fit with a radial play in the second wall portion.

Devices and methods for aligning a probe body and a treatment surface adjacent a target tissue. A guide shaft can be positioned in a urethra. The probe body can be positioned in a vagina and registered relative to the guide so as to position the treatment surface in alignment with the target tissue.

A ground vehicle for feeding photovoltaic modules to an automatic assembly machine is disclosed, wherein the automatic assembly machine is movable on previously installed PV modules and the PV modules that still need to be installed are fed to the automatic assembly machine above a supporting structure. The ground vehicle has six vertically movable rams arranged in spaced-apart relationship in pairs in the direction of travel, with the PV modules to be installed located above the rams. Timing of the vertical ram motion is controlled so that a retracted ram of a ram pair is always extended before the other ram of the ram pair is lowered.

An integrated motor-gear drive unit, for example an in-wheel motor, for transmitting rotational movement from a motor output shaft with cycloidal reduction to an outer rotatable body includes a mounting carrier body (3) and a secondary carrier body (2) structurally connected by at least two carrier pin devices (4, 11) forming a combined carrier body (2, 3, 4, 11); an outer rotatable body (1) rotatably supported on the mounting carrier body (3) and on the secondary carrier body (2); a motor (5) and a rotatable motor output shaft (6m), at least one cycloidal gear disc (10) and an eccentric body (8), wherein the eccentric body (8) is rotatably supporting the cycloidal gear disc (10) and wherein the motor output shaft (6m) is arranged for rotating the eccentric body (8) within the cycloidal gear disc (10), and a device to which such a unit is connected.

Heat spreading device using microfabricated microfluidic structures to cool microelectronic devices.

An OTDM transmitting method and transmitter realizing an OTDM distortion-free transmission substantially not relying upon dispersion. A time division multiplexed OTDM signal from an OTDM signal transmitter (1) enters an optical Fourier transform unit (2). Optical Fourier transform can be carried out most accurately so long as the optical pulse is a chirp-free Fourier transform limit pulse. The optical Fourier transform unit (2) converts the time waveform of the pulse into a signal on the frequency axis, and an optical inverse Fourier transform unit (2′) converts a spectral shape on the frequency axis into a time waveform (pulse). An optical fiber transmission line (3) is a transmission line having an arbitrary dispersion and a polarization mode dispersion. These dispersions may involve a time variation. An OTDM signal receiver (4) demultiplexes a transmission signal into low-speed optical signals, in a light region, receives optical pulses for respective channels and converts them into electric signals.

The present invention relates to a FinFET with separate gates and to a method for fabricating the same. A dielectric gate-separation layer between first and second gate electrodes has an extension in a direction pointing from a first to a second gate layer that is smaller than a lateral extension of the fin between its opposite lateral faces. This structure corresponds with a processing method that starts from a covered basic FinFET structure with a continuous first gate layer, and proceeds to remove parts of the first gate layer and of a first gate-isolation layer through a contact opening to the gate layer. Subsequently, a replacement gate-isolation layer that at the same time forms the gate separation layer fabricated, followed by filling the tunnel with a replacement gate layer and a metal filling.
