A method for eliminating errors in foreground object detection in digitized images comprises providing a reference camera and a secondary camera, vertically aligning each said camera with a baseline that is approximately perpendicular to a ground plane, wherein said reference camera is placed lower than said secondary camera, selecting a foreground pixel in a reference view of a first point in a foreground object, finding a conjugate pixel of the foreground pixel in a secondary view, using the foreground and conjugate pixels to determine an image base pixel of a base point in the reference view, wherein said base point is a point on the ground plane below the first point, and using the foreground and image base pixels to find a location where the ground plane is first visible.

A system for displaying comment documents within a parent document that avoids replication / save conflicts regardless of the number of users having local document replicas. The graphical user interface to a parent document provides the user with the ability to enter a comment with regard to the parent document. In response to indication that a comment is to be entered, the user interface to the parent document allows the user to enter content to be included in the comment. In response to indication that the entered comment should be saved, the system operates to capture the comment contents and store it into a newly created comment document associated with the parent document. After a comment document has been created, its contents are presented through a predetermined display region within the user interface to the parent document. In response to detection of a transition of a parent document from a state in which comments can be added to a state in which comments cannot be added, the system locates all comment documents associated with the parent document, copies the contents of those comment documents into the parent document such that they are displayed as part of the parent document, and deletes all associated comment documents for that parent document.

Formation of sidewalls on a gate structure in layers having a differential etch rate for certain etchants allows metallization and salicide formation annealing of a gate electrode and source / drain regions prior to shallow impurity implantation and impurity activation annealing at the location of a removable portion of a sidewall spacer establishing a gap between source / drain regions and remaining sidewalls of a gate structure. Therefore, diffusion of impurities to a greater depth and impurity deactivation during salacide formation annealing is avoided in a high performance semiconductor device such as a field effect transistor of extremely small dimensions.

A semiconductor device comprises a substrate including a first region and a second region of a first conductivity type and a third region between the first and second regions of a second conductivity type opposite to the first conductivity type, and being covered by a dielectric layer. A plurality of trenches laterally extend between the third and second region, are filled with an insulating material, and are separated by active stripes with a doping profile having a depth not exceeding the depth of the trenches wherein each trench terminates before reaching the dielectric layer and is separated from the third region by a substrate portion such that the respective boundaries between the substrate portions and the trenches are not covered by the dielectric layer. A method for manufacturing such a semiconductor device is also disclosed.

A tool for a vacuum cleaner that includes a nozzle and a bristle assembly. An elongate suction opening is provided in a base of the nozzle. The bristle assembly is mounted within the nozzle and includes a carrier to which a strip of bristles is attached. The carrier pivots or flexes relative to the nozzle and has a pair of wings located on opposite sides of the bristles.

A multi-personal area network (PAN) transceiver includes two or more receiver modules for simultaneously monitoring traffic broadcast on different PANs, but a shared transmitter that switches between the different PANs as needed for transmitting data. The shared transmitter reduces the circuitry that would otherwise be required to transmit on multiple PANs while the multiple receiver modules preserve the ability to monitor traffic on multiple networks.

A two-dimensional self-RAID method of protecting page-based storage data in a MLC multiple-level-cell flash memory device. The protection scheme includes reserving one parity sector across each data page, reserving one parity page as the column parity, selecting a specific number of pages to form a parity group, writing into the parity page a group parity value for data stored in the pages of the parity group. The parity sector represents applying a RAID technique in a first dimension. The group parity represents applying a RAID technique in a second dimension. Data protection is achieved because a corrupted data sector can likely be recovered by the two dimensional RAID data.
