The vision inspection system includes a level block having an upper surface whose opposite end regions are defined as a first position and a second position. A first transfer device has a table for supporting the workpiece. The first transfer device is installed on the upper surface of the level block for rectilinearly moving the table between the first position and the second position. A camera is arranged above the level block for taking an image of the workpiece to output image data. A second transfer device is installed on the upper surface of the level block for rectilinearly moving the camera between the first position and the second position. A computer is connected to the first transfer means, the camera and the second transfer means to control them in a specified manner. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20090087168 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REPRODUCING MEDIA CONTENTS USING NON-VOLATILE STORAGE MEDIUM - The invention relates generally to a method for reproducing digital media content, and more particularly but without limitation, to a method and apparatus for reading a boot code and digital media content from a non-volatile storage medium other than a conventional hard disk drive. In embodiments of the invention, power is limitedly supplied to an apparatus required for reproducing digital media content. Additionally, in embodiments of the invention, the digital media content is reproduced using a non-volatile storage medium other than a conventional hard disk drive (HDD); in particular, embodiments of the invention utilize a solid state drive (SSD) such as a non-volatile cache memory inside a hybrid hard drive (HDD) or an on-board cache memory. Embodiments of the invention also provide an apparatus for performing the method. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20090089501 | METHOD OF PREFETCHING DATA IN HARD DISK DRIVE, RECORDING MEDIUM INCLUDING PROGRAM TO EXECUTE THE METHOD, AND APPARATUS TO PERFORM THE METHOD - A method of prefetching data in a hard disk drive includes searching for a logic block address (LBA) of data requested by an external apparatus in a history of a non-volatile cache of the hard disk drive, and if the LBA of the data is stored in the history, storing data recorded in a LBA stored after the LBA of the data requested by the external apparatus from among LBAs stored in the history in a buffer of the hard disk drive. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20090094299 | Apparatus and method for defragmenting files on a hydrid hard disk - An apparatus and method for defragmenting files on a hybrid hard disk are provided.
