20080283169Pneumatic Tire - A pneumatic tire is provided in which markings shown on surfaces of side walls thereof have superior visibility and the effect of increased visibility can be maintained over a long period of time. In a pneumatic tire having a marking provided on a side wall, a marking area which includes the marking and a background portion of the marking is formed into a recessed plane which is recessed further inwards than the surface of the side wall in an axial direction of the tire, and the marking is formed in the marking area in the form of a projecting plane which is provided in such a manner as to project relative to the recessed plane. The surface of the marking is made up of a specular surface portion having a surface roughness in which a center line average surface roughness (Ra) is in the range of 0.4 to 1.5 μm, and the background portion is made up of a rough surface portion whose surface roughness exceeds a surface roughness in which Ra is 1.5 μm.11-20-2008
20090266459Pneumatic Tire - An object of the present invention is to provide a pneumatic tire having low rolling resistance and higher resistance against irregular wear. To achieve the above object, a pneumatic tire includes a tread portion comprising a plurality of block arrays each of which is constituted of a plurality of blocks that are partitioned by a plurality of main grooves extending in a circumferential direction of the tire and a plurality of lateral grooves crossing the main grooves, wherein at least one of the block arrays is provided with a thin rib that continuously extends in the circumferential direction of the tire in a central area of the block array as viewed in a width direction of the tire and is partitioned by two sipes extending in the circumferential direction of the tire, the depth of the sipes extending in the circumferential direction of the tire is 0.7 times or less of the depth of the lateral grooves.10-29-2009
20120067478PNEUMATIC TIRE - A pneumatic tire has a tread pattern including a lateral groove extending in a direction intersecting a tire circumferential direction and a shoulder block comparted by the lateral groove. A depression region in which a plurality of depressions extending in the tire circumferential direction are arranged in a tire width direction are formed on a surface of the shoulder block in an outer side in the tire width direction than a ground-contact end. The depressions are open to the lateral groove, and are segmented in a center portion in the tire circumferential direction of the shoulder block.03-22-2012

20120176404METHOD, APPARATUS AND PROGRAM FOR PROCESSING IMAGE DATA FOR DISPLAY BY A DISPLAY PANEL OF A DISPLAY DEVICE, AND A DISPLAY DEVICE - A method is provided of processing image data for display by a display panel of a display device. The method comprises receiving main image pixel data representing a main image and side image pixel data representing a side image, and performing a mapping of the pixel data to signals used to drive the display panel. The mapping is arranged to produce an average on-axis luminance which is dependent mainly on the main image pixel data and an average off-axis luminance which is dependent at least to some extent on the side image pixel data. A compression of the main image pixel data is performed in advance of or at least partly incorporated into the mapping, the compression being performed at least partly in dependence upon the main image pixel data and at least partly in dependence upon how the off-axis luminance varies with pixel data input to the mapping.07-12-2012
