20140348198 | LASER WITH IMPROVED RADIO FREQUENCY ENERGY DISTRIBUTION - A carbon dioxide slab laser includes a top electrode and a bottom electrode. The top electrode has a socket formed at a geometric center and receives a contact ring in the recess of the socket. The contact ring includes radially inward extending biasing fingers. The biasing fingers contact a radio frequency (RF) energy feed through plug and engages the outer wall of the plug and retains it in the socket. The fingers disperse RF energy radially outward to the laser and provide for more even energy distribution that allows for more power. Grounding is also improved through grounding bars spaced apart longitudinally along the length of the bottom electrode. The transverse extending bars include contact elements having spaced apart fingers along the length of the contact element and providing multiple ground points to prevent focusing at a single grounding point. | 11-27-2014 |

20110007089 | METHOD AND SYSTEM OF PROCESSING IMAGES FOR IMPROVED DISPLAY - Image processing may be performed to generate a color image for display on a color display screen and a monochrome image for display on a monochrome display screen, where an overlap of the images may produce a resultant color image at one or more depths. The one or more depths may be determined by an amount of blur applied to one image and an amount of sharpness applied to other. The one or more depths may be determined by a gamma value of the monochrome image. Since the monochrome display screen may have fewer or no color filters and/or a lower resolution, the monochrome display screen may pass more light than conventional color display screens. As such, less light can be used to illuminate color images displayed at different depths using a color display screen and a monochrome display screen, thereby reducing energy consumption of the display device. | 01-13-2011 |
