In particular, when producing data of electronic program table, the cubic display is executed, partially, fitting to an object, and thereby increasing usability for a user.
Abstract:
A television operation method whereby a desired content screen can be easily shown on a TV receiver by control operation on the display of a remote terminal. When the TV display of the TV receiver shows a received program screen and the remote display of the remote terminal shows another received program screen, if the screen shown on the remote display is transferred to the TV display, a reception remote control screen to enable channel selection appears on the remote display. If buttons are operated so as to show a related web screen on the remote display and transfer the related web screen to the TV display, a web remote control screen for control of a cursor on the related web screen appears on the remote display.
Abstract:
For the purpose of obtaining a video signal by suppressing a black float while not consuming an excess electric power therein, not contributing to display of a backlight, a video display apparatus having a plural number of backlights for irradiating lights upon a display panel, comprises a histogram detector for conducting a histogram detection for each display region corresponding to that backlight from an input video signal of one (1) frame, a means for determining a control value of that plural number of backlights depending on a specific picture or video, which is detected by the histogram detector, and a video signal processor for controlling an amount of a controlled light the display panel of a display region, i.e., a put-out region, depending on the backlight control value, which is determined by the means for determining the control value of the backlight.
Abstract:
A signal processor capable of extracting evaluated values used for automatic control more appropriately, including: a feature detection unit which detects a feature change position of any target pixel and its peripheral pixels in an input picture signal; a hold unit which holds the position information; a region creation unit which creates a region by excluding the held positions from an evaluated value extraction region; and an evaluated value extraction unit which extracts evaluated values in accordance with the region; wherein unnecessary portions different in feature from the periphery are extracted in accordance with any pixel unit by detection of the feature change position so that the feature change position is excluded from the evaluated value extraction region.
Abstract:
A projection type image display unit has a housing on which a light source and an image display part for transmission or reflection of light from the light source are mounted. The unit includes a position adjusting device, by which a displayed position of an image is adjusted. The position adjusting device comprises: a manipulation member being vertically movable with a part thereof projecting from a side of the housing; a leg member projecting from a bottom of the housing and adapted to freely vary an amount of the projection thereof; and a connecting member connecting the manipulation member with the leg member to set the amount of the projection of the leg member by manipulating the manipulation member in a vertical direction. The connecting member comprises a lever member so that a movement direction of the manipulation member becomes the same as a movement direction of the housing and a movement amount of the manipulation member substantially becomes the same as a movement amount of the housing.
Abstract:
A disc drive apparatus comprises: a spindle motor 20 for hold a disc 2 and for rotate it; an optical head 7 for conducting either one of recording or reproducing of information onto/from the disc; a driver unit for moving the optical head in a radial direction of the disc; and a unit mechanism chassis 8 for supporting those thereon, fixedly, wherein the spindle motor is constructed with a rotational drive means made of a magnetic circuit, a rotor portion and a rotation shaft, which define a rotation body, and a spindle motor attachment plate to hold those thereon, and the spindle motor attachment plate has a semi-circular shaped plate configuration in a part thereof, nearly fitting to an outer diameter the rotor portion, in a direction where the optical head is provided, and has a step-like structure in thickness direction of the plate thereof, within a semi-circular shaped region with respect to a line connecting between corner portions on both ends of that semi-circular shape, and also bridging over that line.
Abstract:
The MTD has some problems. Firstly, even if an input bandwidth is widened to obtain a larger SNR gain, an increase in the SNR gain cannot always be obtained due to the clock jitter that increases clock noise. Secondly, noise is sometimes superimposed on the clock supplied to an ADC when a transmission path connecting a clock-signal source to an ADC has a certain distance or when a certain form of mounting these members is employed. The noise lowers the performance. Provided is an optical disc apparatus including: a means for regulating loosely the bandwidth of a pulsed read signal; a means for boosting high-frequency components of a waveform of a driving signal of a laser diode; and a means for synchronizing autonomously a driving clock of the ADC and a DAC with a clock of the pulsed read signal.
