Abstract:
A more efficient triangular shape for metal wood clubs or driver clubs is disclosed. This triangular shape allows the clubs to have higher rotational moments of inertia in both the vertical and horizontal directions, and a lower center of gravity.
Abstract:
A golf club head comprising a strike face having a heel portion, a toe portion, and an intermediate portion. The intermediate portion includes one or more score lines. At least a portion of one or more score lines include a different average surface roughness and associated surface reflectance than at least the intermediate portion. A method for producing such a club head is also provided.
Abstract:
The operability of light-based semiconductor die analysis is enhanced using a method and arrangement that directs light between a light source and a die. In one example embodiment of the present invention, a light source is directed to a die in a semiconductor analysis arrangement using a fiber optic cable. The analysis arrangement is adapted to use light received via the fiber optic cable to analyze the die. The analysis includes one or more light-based applications, such as stimulating a selected portion of the die with the light and detecting a response therefrom. In this manner, light can be directed to a die in a variety of analysis implementations, such as for analyzing a die in a test chamber.
Abstract:
The operability of light-based semiconductor die analysis is enhanced using a method and arrangement that can detect light leakage between a light source and a die. In one example embodiment of the present invention, a light source is directed to a semiconductor analysis arrangement using, for example, a fiber optic cable. The analysis arrangement is adapted to use light from the light source for analyzing the die. A light detection arrangement detects a condition of light leakage from the system and generates a signal representing the condition of light leakage. The generated signal can then be used to control the semiconductor analysis arrangement, such as by deactivating the light source in response to a detected leak, or by allowing the light source to function in response to not detecting a leak.
Abstract:
An iron-type golf club including a golf club head having improved mass distribution characteristics. The golf club includes a golf club head that is constructed from multiple pieces and that has a multi-material construction.

Abstract:
Semiconductor die analysis is enhanced using a system that is adapted to perturb a die in a test chamber and to detect a response from the die to the perturbation. According to an example embodiment of the present invention, a semiconductor die analysis system includes a test chamber and a docking arrangement adapted to dock with the test chamber. A die is held in the docking arrangement and is presented inside of the test chamber when the docking arrangement is docked with the chamber. Two or more perturbation devices are used to perturb the die, and controller is adapted to control the perturbation. A data acquisition arrangement receives data from the die in response to the perturbation, and the data is used for analyzing the die.
Abstract:
A muscle-back iron golf club head includes a blade-like upper mass, a muscle-like lower mass, a planar front surface, a top surface, a sole surface, a heel surface, a toe surface, and a rear surface having a first contour. A recess is in the rear surface, the recess having a first portion in the blade-like upper mass and a second portion in the muscle-like lower mass. An insert may be provided in the recess, and such insert may substantially fill the recess and may include a back surface having a second contour which is different from the first contour of the club head rear surface.
Abstract:
A system provides automatic modem dialing for a dial-up connection to a computer network with an automatic dialer when a network application attempts to communicate with the network. The automatic dialer is installable in a network programming interface to monitor the network application's requests to communicate on the computer network through the network programming interface. Dialing user interfaces and dialogs are installable in the automatic dialer on a per dial-up connection basis. Their installability allows the automatic dialer to be implemented separately from the network programming interface, and the dialing user interface and dialogs to be implemented separately from the automatic dialer. The network application has an offline browsing mode which allows viewing of information recently accessed from the computer network while being disconnected from the computer network.
