"It is my heart-warmed and world-embracing Christmas hope and aspiration that all of us, the high, the low, the rich, the poor, the admired, the despised, the loved, the hated, the civilized, the savage (every man and brother of us all throughout the whole earth), may eventually be gathered together in a heaven of everlasting rest and peace and bliss, except the inventor of the telephone. "
Mark Twain ; Christmas greetings, 1890

| 6133947 | Image processing system capable of displaying photographed image in combination with relevant map image In an image processing system utilized with a car navigation system, an image photographed by a digital camera is coordinated with a map image in relation to this photographed image, so that a driver can readily confirm where this photographed image has b... | 10/17/2000 |
| 5673839 | Real-time fastener measurement system A real-time fastener measurement system includes an anvil (10) having a striking surface (16) that engages a fastener as it is upset. Three proximity sensors (20) are disposed at 120° intervals around a striking surface of the anvil. A computer system (1... | 10/07/1997 |
| 5640201 | Film cartridge and film image input system thereof A film cartridge which can be looked up easily and a film image input system which can obtain a high quality image by using the film cartridge wherein the image signal of each frame image, of which the image quality is adjusted, is recorded in the EEPROM ... | 06/17/1997 |
| 5557322 | Telecines with simultaneous scanning of a plurality of frames A continuous-motion flying-spot telecine has twin objective lenses (13,14) which provide beams to scan two adjacent film frames simultaneously. Two sets of light detectors (16,17) are provided, one for each frame being scanned. The detector outputs are ap... | 09/17/1996 |
| 5406326 | Video system for producing video image simulating the appearance of motion picture or other photographic film Digital signals are generated and stored for each pixel of a frame of a preferably high definition video originated material. A computer reads the digital signals and converts them to binary image data by employing a selected look-up-table program to reas... | 04/11/1995 |
| 5276522 | Electronic film editing with system having telecine mode and film writing mode A telecine can be adapted to write video signals onto film.
