The present invention relates to a high-performance computer vision system and method for measuring the wings deformation of insects with high flapping-frequency, large stroke-amplitude and excellent mobility during free-flight. A geometrical optic unit composed of a polyhedral reflector with four reflection-planes and four planar reflectors is used to image one high-speed CMOS camera to four virtual cameras, combined with double laser-sheet sources, multiple virtual stereo and structured-light sensors are available to observe the free-flight of insect at different viewpoints simultaneously. In addition, an optoelectronic guiding equipment is included to lead the free-flight of insect and trigger the camera to capture the image sequences of insect-flight automatically. The deformation of insect-wings can be reconstructed by the spatial coordinates of wing-edges and the distorted light-lines projected on the surface of wings.

The present invention relates to a system and a method for creating hardware and/or software test sequences and in particular, to such a system and method in which modular building blocks are used to create, sequence and schedule a large scale testing sequence using a matrix like platform.

A system for plastic surgery comprises entering patient information into a database; computing a video sequence template for the patient based on the information and a synthetic video model.

There is provided a multi-finger hand device which can perform smooth bending and stretching operations of finger mechanisms in holding work of an object or the like while reducing the number of actuators as driving sources of the bending and stretching operations of the finger mechanisms. Wires 29a and 29b, and wires 30a and 30b extending from the finger mechanisms 2b to 2e biased to the stretching side by springs 16, or the like are joined to joining element 32 and 33, respectively. A wire 31 provided extensionally from the finger mechanism 2a is wound onto a pulley 36 and drawn from the base side of the hand 3. The joining elements 32 and 33 are rockably held by a holding element 43 via spindles 44 and 45. The holding element 43 is provided movably and rockably around a spindle 42. The pulley 36 is held by the holding element 43 and moves together with the holding element 43. By pulling the wire 31, the bending operations of the finger mechanisms 2a to 2e are performed collectively. During bending and stretching operations of the finger mechanisms 2a to 2e, even if any of the finger mechanisms touches an object or the like and is disabled to move, the bending and stretching operations of the other finger mechanisms can be performed.

The invention relates to a procedure for linking cognate pairs of VH and VL encoding sequences from a population of avian cells enriched in particular surface antigen markers. The linking procedure involves a multiplex molecular amplification procedure capable of linking nucleotide sequences of interest in connection with the amplification (multiplex PCR). The method is particularly advantageous for the generation of cognate pair libraries as well as combinatorial libraries of antibody variable region encoding sequences from chickens or other birds. The invention also provides methods for generation of chimeric human/avian antibodies and expression libraries generated by such methods.

An immunoregulatory molecule that regulates costimulatory signal transduction through interaction with the molecules involved in costimulatory signal transduction present on antigen presenting cells and/or T cells in the activation of T cells by antigen presenting cells and a process for preparing the same are provided. Said immunoregulatory molecule comprises a peptide which has two cysteine (Cys) residues forming Cys-Cys linkage and comprises at least six amino acid residues between said Cys-Cys linkage. Said immunoregulatory molecule is obtained by screening a phage random peptide library with a monoclonal antibody to CTLA-4 on T cells involved in costimulatory signal transduction.

A mesh receiver has a wakeup receiver for reception of a wakeup sequence formed by keyed RF or a sequence of wireless packets and gaps, a transmitter forming low speed RF wakeup sequence to other mesh stations, a mesh receiver for reception of high speed WLAN packets, the transmitter sending a wireless ACK packet in response to a wakeup sequence, the mesh receiver thereafter receiving wireless packets from a remote station, the mesh transmitter sending an ACK, the mesh station thereafter identifying a next hop station, and sending a wakeup sequence to that station, after receipt of an ACK, sending the data, the mesh receiver and mesh transmitter thereafter going to sleep.

An apparatus is provided for managing communication among a plurality of process means respectively operating on given control programs realizing functions necessary for a vehicle. The plural process means includes a first process means issuing requesting messages for requesting a function and a second process means receiving the requesting message, performing a process requested by each requesting massage, and sending back a response indicating results of the process to the first process means. In the apparatus, storage means stores therein, of the requesting massages issued, only response-waiting messages issued by the first process means and received by the second process means. A measuring component measures an elapse of time from a time when the request stored in the storage is received by the second process means. A determining component determines whether or not the elapse of time measured by the measuring component reaches a preset value.

A temporary-storage system that includes a temporary-storage belt, a control unit and signalling means. The temporary-storage belt comprises a plurality of regularly distributed sensors. During a loading phase, the control unit receives information coming from at least one of the sensors when an object is deposited on the temporary-storage belt and records a trace of the deposition of the object in association with a reference to each of the sensors activated by the deposition. During an unloading phase, the control unit determines a sequence of removal of the objects and, for each object to be removed, identifies the sensors referenced, transmits to the signalling means signalling information identifying the position of the object, and receives information coming from at least one of the sensors when the object is removed.

Trp cage binding domain polypeptides are disclosed. The Trp cage binding domains have the generic formulas of SEQ ID NO: 2, 7, 10 or 11. They can be efficiently produced and screened using phage display technology.

An aspect of the present invention provides a rearview mirror designed to enhance assembly workability. When assembling a mirror unit of the rearview mirror, a lamp unit is dropped in an opening provided on a mirror holder from an inner surface side of the mirror holder in a condition in which side object detection symbols face upward. Thereafter, a circumferential edge of a reflective mirror is fitted into a recess-shaped fit portion of the mirror holder. The lamp unit is thus simply clamped and fixed between a lamp unit receiving portion (tab portions) and the reflective mirror. When the lamp unit is assembled in the mirror unit, therefore, adhesive is not used, so that workability is extremely good.
