18 Dec 1995TL;DR: In this article, a two-way voice messaging terminal for communicating with a receiving terminal which may or may not be capable of reproducing a voice message transmitted from the voice messaging system is described.
Abstract: A two-way voice messaging terminal for communicating with a receiving terminal which may or may not be capable of reproducing a voice message transmitted from the voice messaging terminal. A voice message is digitally encoded and stored in a memory. A receiving terminal selection unit connected to the first memory preferably allows for the selection of the receiving terminal(s) to which the voice message is to be transmitted. The receiving terminal selection unit then receives the stored, digitally encoded voice message and determines whether the selected receiving terminal(s) is(are) capable of reproducing the voice message. If the receiving terminal(s) can reproduce the voice message, the voice message is transmitted to the selected receiving terminal(s). If the terminal(s) is(are) not capable of reproducing the voice message, the voice message is converted into a text message in a speech-to-text converter in the voice messaging terminal and then transmitted to the selected receiving terminal(s). The voice messaging terminal may also have a text-to-speech converter to convert a response text message into a synthesized voice message, the response text message being sent from the selected receiving terminal(s) in response to the voice message transmitted by the voice messaging terminal.

TL;DR: A 1/1.8-inch 6.4 MPixel 60 frames/s CMOS image sensor fabricated in a 0.18-mum single-poly triple-metal (1P3M) process is described, which has 38% fill factor and 12ke-/lux sensibility.
Abstract: A 1/1.8-inch 6.4 MPixel 60 frames/s CMOS image sensor fabricated in a 0.18-mum single-poly triple-metal (1P3M) process is described. A zigzag-shaped 1.75 T/pixel architecture and a 10-bit counter-type column parallel ADC enables 2.5times2.5 mum2 pixels. The resulting pixel has 38% fill factor and 12ke-/lux.s sensibility. In addition, full frame and 2times2 binning modes are interchangeable without an extra invalid frame

07 Dec 1999TL;DR: In this article, a multi-layer porous structure including two or more porous layers having different porosities is formed in a semiconductor substrate, and a thin film is grown on the porous structure.
Abstract: The present invention provides new and improved methods for making crystalline semiconductor thin films which may be bonded to different kinds of substrates. The thin films may be flexible. In accordance with preferred methods, a multi-layer porous structure including two or more porous layers having different porosities is formed in a semiconductor substrate. A semiconductor thin film is grown on the porous structure. Electrodes and/or a desired support substrate may be attached to the grown film. The grown film is separated from the semiconductor substrate along a line of weakness defined in the porous structure. The separated thin film attached to the support substrate may be further processed to provide improved film products, solar panels and light emitting diode devices. These thin film semiconductors are excellent in crystallinity and may be inexpensively produced, thereby enabling production of solar cells and light emitting diodes at lower cost.

17 Jun 2011TL;DR: A display device with a touch detection function includes, a plurality of display elements performing display operation based on a pixel signal and a display drive signal, a touch detector element detecting an external proximity object based on the touch detection drive signal as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: A display device with a touch detection function includes, a plurality of display elements performing display operation based on a pixel signal and a display drive signal, a touch detection element detecting an external proximity object based on a touch detection drive signal, a scan drive section performing display scanning by sequentially supplying the pixel signal and the display drive signal to the plurality of display elements in a time-divisional manner, and the scan drive section supplying the touch detection drive signal to the touch detection element, and a touch detection circuit performing touch detection by sampling a detection result from the touch detection element with a period shorter than a period of the display scanning. The scan drive section supplies the touch detection drive signal to the touch detection element in a touch detection operation period different from a display operation period for performing the display scanning.
