| 20080196877 | Combined Heating & Air Conditioning System for Buses Utilizing an Electrified Compressor Having a Modular High-Pressure Unit - An HVAC system for heating and cooling a passenger compartment of a vehicle is provided. A first heat exchanger transfers heat between a primary loop and a secondary loop. The primary loop is a reversible loop and uses high pressure refrigerant. A compressor pressurizes the refrigerant. A second heat exchanger selectively transfers heat energy to and from the passenger compartment. The secondary loop is a low pressure liquid coolant loop that passes through the first heat exchanger. A pump moves fluid through the secondary loop. A third heat exchanger transfers heat to and from an external medium from the fluid passing through the secondary loop. A secondary heat source adds heat to the secondary loop during a heating mode. A bypass means selectively bypasses the secondary heat source during a cooling mode. | 08-21-2008 |

| 20080297657 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING TEXT IN A VIDEO STREAM - The disclosed systems and methods achieve improved communication of the text in a video stream. Text may be processed separately from the video stream to suit the capabilities of a display device or to improve the availability of the textual information to users with special requirements. The disclosed methods and systems may be used, for example, in conjunction with set-top-box decoders, mobile telephones, and portable media players with small or low-resolution display screens. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20080298769 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING COMPRESSED VIDEO TO IMPROVE REVERSE PLAYBACK - The disclosed systems and methods achieve improved quality reverse playback of video though techniques for modifying the way in which video is encoded and stored. The methods and systems may be used, for example, in conjunction with a wide variety of media playing and recording devices, such as DVD recorders, set top boxes, personal video devices (PVR), and mobile phones. Any device that allows users to record video, either from a fixed source (e.g., set top box) or from life (e.g., mobile phone with built-in video camera, or a standard digital video camera), may use the disclosed methods and systems to give users a higher quality playback. | 12-04-2008 |
