Abstract:
An input apparatus including an electronic pen and a terminal having a foldable display unit is provided. An electronic pen generates an ultrasonic signal and an infrared signal. A terminal detects the ultrasonic signal and the infrared signal and calculates coordinate information of the electronic pen based on the received ultrasonic signal and the infrared signal. The terminal determines coordinate information of the electronic pen with respect to the foldable display unit by measuring a folding angle of the foldable display unit.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an optical sheet for use in liquid crystal displays, which simultaneously functions to uniformly diffuse light emitted from a light guide plate and a diffusion plate and to increase brightness, decreases the loss of light, and enables the fabrication of thinner liquid crystal displays.
Abstract:
A method to use a user interface includes when the user grips the apparatus in a standard shape, the controller identifies the griping fingers, perceives a commanded function based on the operations of the identified fingers, and executes the perceived function. Thus, a desired application or application function can be easily and quickly executed only by the operation of the fingers even when the handheld device is put in a bag or pocket, or when the user cannot check or handle the screen and buttons of the handheld device because the user is talking on the phone or in conference.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for serving multimedia contents and a system for providing a multimedia content service using the same, the apparatus including: a display unit to display multimedia contents and supplementary information; and a controller to control the display unit to display the supplementary information appended to a section of the multimedia contents when the section is reproduced, to retrieve a section including selected supplementary information from the multimedia contents stored in the memory when the supplementary information is selected using the input unit, to display section information of the retrieved section, and to reproduce the section corresponding to selected section information when the section information is selected using the input unit. Thus, it is possible to easily perform movement to a scene in which the user is interested and provide manipulation convenience and usability to the user.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a two-piece golf ball having a core and a cover, wherein the core comprises at least one unsaturated polymer, at least one cross-linking agent, at least one co-cross-linking agent, and at least one peptizer (comprising one or more organic sulfur compounds, or one or more metal or non-metal salts of an organic sulfur compound), and optionally at least one weight adjusting filler. The improved two-piece balls have optimal velocity and distance performance, as well as excellent shot feel, the called “long and soft” combination. The balls also demonstrate excellent durability properties, and ease of manufacture.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an apparatus for producing nitrogen equipped in a marine structure such as a liquefied natural gas regasification vessel (LNG RV) and a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU), and a method for producing nitrogen in a marine structure using the apparatus. The apparatus for producing nitrogen equipped in a flowing marine structure produces nitrogen to be mixed with natural gas to be supplied to consumers after regasification. The floating marine structure in which the apparatus is equipped has an LNG regasification facility for compressing the LNG stored in a storage tank using a high-pressure pump and then vaporizing the LNG into natural gas in a vaporizer to supply natural gas to consumers. The apparatus for producing nitrogen secures cold heat necessary to produce nitrogen using the LNG supplied from the storage tank.
Abstract:
A golf ball incorporates nanofiller material in its core, cover, or intermediate layers. Also, a method includes a step of blending into a composition for a golf ball nanocomposite material, nanofiller material or both. The nanocomposite and/or nanofiller materials impart favorable properties to materials used for golf balls, and they provide for greater versatility in usage than materials previously used. Particular compositions incorporating nanocomposite material also are described as suited for use in golf ball compositions.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a piezoelectric actuator drive system for forward or backward driving a piezoelectric actuator for zooming and/or focusing in a camera module. The piezoelectric actuator drive system comprises a power supply for supplying an operating voltage, a drive controller for controlling generation of a forward/backward drive signal for a piezoelectric actuator in response to an operation ON select signal and a forward/backward driving select signal, a clock generator for generating a first clock signal in response to the operating voltage from the power supply, and a drive signal generator for generating and supplying the forward or backward drive signal to the piezoelectric actuator in response to the first clock signal from the clock generator and the operating voltage from the power supply under the forward/backward drive signal generation control of the drive controller.
Abstract:
Sports equipment incorporate thermoplastic compositions including urethane and a nitroso reaction product of a nitroso compound and a diisocyanate or polyisocyanate. The invention allows for the processing advantages of a thermoplastic urethane with the superior performance characteristics of a cross-linked polyurethane.
Abstract:
A method for making a polymer blend composition includes combining at least one component A incorporating at least five percent by weight of anionic functional groups in its structure, at least one component B, preferably free of such functional groups, and at least one component C, which is a metal cation. The method allows for greater flexibility in preparation of polymer compositions than methods previously known.
