The present invention in the form of a computer software program provides for a method for annotating over static images or annotating over active application programs. In the case of static images, user-created objects can be created, manipulated and placed over static images. In the case of annota ...
A method for facilitating the creation and maintenance of network connections over an interconnected network for the purpose of facilitating the creation and participation of on-line conferences in accordance to the peer-to-peer paradigm is disclosed. A designated location on the network (e.g. a web ...
A method for organizing frames of data into queues for prioritized transmission is disclosed. Frames in queues can be transmitted to the other computer systems, and the priority of transfer is set according to the type of data. The frame currently being viewed is provided with a high priority. If th ...
A two-dimensional random number generator for use in electronic applications is constructed of a shift-register random number generator using the coefficients of a primitive polynomial of degree k to generate sequences of random binary numbers, and a second random number generator to provide an inde ...
The present invention relates to a signaling system which provides as part of the signal an indication as to the approximate elapsed time since the activation of the signal. Furthermore, the type of service required can be indicated by a particular flashing scheme or color code. The system has both ...
A trolling motor system and method for controlling the trolling motor, including a microcontroller, a plurality of transducers, a steering motor, and an outboard motor. The user is allowed to input commands via a keypad and the selected mode of operation is displayed via an LCD screen. The microcont ...
The present invention provides a cooling security system that combines a hardware apparatus with a software routine. The cooling security system detects problems associated with the operation of the fan which is the main component for cooling or heat dissipation, and provides notification of the fan ...
A decompression method uses four coefficient inverse perfect reconstruction digital filters. The coefficients of these inverse perfect reconstruction digital filters require a small number of additions to implement thereby enabling rapid decompression in software. The method partially inverse transf ...
A semiconductor memory array and methods therefor is provided herein comprising a substrate; a plurality of memory cell field effect transistors formed on said substrate and being arranged thereon into rows and columns of transistors, each transistor includes a channel region interposed between drai ...
An expansion card for a personal computer digitizes, optionally processes and/or compresses, stores, and then relays to the personal computer video information without the use of a frame store memory. An analog-to-digital converter on the expansion card digitizes at least part of a frame of an analo ...
