Choog Seng Boon, Yokohama-Shi JP

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110141372VIDEO EVALUATION DEVICE, FRAME RATE DETERMINATION DEVICE, VIDEO PROCESS DEVICE, VIDEO EVALUATION METHOD, AND VIDEO EVALUATION PROGRAM - A frame rate is determined in accordance with the smoothness in movement of a video. An amount of change detection section extracts an amount of change based on a plurality of frame pictures included in an input video signal input as a moving picture signal from the outside and outputs an amount of change to an evaluation value calculation section. The evaluation value calculation section computes an amount of change in time between each of the frame pictures based on the amount of change and the time interval between frame pictures based on frame rate information and evaluates an evaluation value for evaluating the smoothness in movement of an input video based on the amount of change in time. The evaluation value is output to the outside as a factor for determining a frame rate.06-16-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100234417THYROTROPIN RELEASING HORMONE RECEPTOR-OREXIN RECEPTOR HETERO-DIMERS/-OLIGOMERS - A hetero-dimeric or hetero-oligomeric receptor, comprising at least one thyrotropin releasing hormone receptor subunit associated with at least one orexin receptor subunit.09-16-2010

Ian Charles Boon, Victoria AU

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080250986Pallet Having Reinforcing Members and Movable Covers for Access Openings for Rollers - A pallet has a generally planar weight bearing floor of generally square or rectangular plan, at least two reinforcing parallel members extending transversely beneath the floor at locations on opposite sides of and generally parallel to a line bisecting the floor, the reinforcing parallel members providing a box section. The pallet also has an opening for two of the at least two reinforcing parallel members provided in the vicinity of an edge of the pallet to allow access of a tyne of a forklift into the box section, and locomotion means beneath the floor extending to a level below the box section, the locomotion means adapted to facilitate movement of the pallet over a surface.10-16-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090274993PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF A DENTAL COMPONENT AND ARRANGEMENT OF SUCH COMPONENT - A manufacturing method and dental component are provided in which first and second cast parts are used with a casting material, such as a gel slurry, to form the dental component. The first cast part can be positioned in a space of the second cast part and a gel slurry can be applied intermediate the first and second cast parts. The gel slurry can then be solidified to form a solidified gel slurry. The first cast part can then be removed together with the solidified gel slurry from the second cast part. The solidified gel slurry can then be machined to form an exterior shape corresponding to a desired exterior shape of the dental component. Finally, the solidified gel slurry can be sintered.11-05-2009

20100093860HYDROXYBUTYRATE AND POLY-HYDROXYBUTYRATE AS COMPONENTS OF ANIMAL FEED OR FEED ADDITIVES - This invention relates to the use of hydroxybutyrate and poly hydroxybutyrate as components of animal feed or feed additives, as well as to compositions, feed additives and feed containing them. The inventors surprisingly found that hydroxybutyrate and poly-hydroxybutyrate, preferably 3-hydroxybutyrate and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate, have a great potential for use in animal feed for modulation of the gut flora. More precisely, it has been found that poly-3-hydroxybutyrate or a microbial strain capable for producing poly-3-hydroxybutyrate can be used as a potential growth promoter or gut flora modulator by releasing SCFA, preferably 3-hydroxy butyric acid, in the gut micro flora. Further, the inventors found that 3-hydroxybutyrate and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate have a great potential for suppressing or inhibiting pathogenic bacteria in the gastro intestinal tract, e.g. have a antimicrobial activity against strains of 04-15-2010
