The invention concerns a method for production of components comprising a Schottky diode by means of printing technology. The method involves a step of application and deposition of a semiconductor-nanoparticle dispersion on a first electrode, which is disposed on a substrate, the step of exposure to laser light of the deposited semiconductor-nanoparticle dispersion to form a mu-cone with a bottom and a tip, wherein the bottom of the mu-cone is joined to the first electrode, the step of embedding the thus-formed mu-cone in an electrically insulating polymer matrix, and the step of applying a second electrode, so that the tip of the mu-cone is joined to the second electrode.

A method comprises receiving a signal containing an environmental cue; correlating the environmental cue to a user interface control element; and generating a user interface control command based on the environmental cue. A device may be controlled by receiving a visual image, processing the image to identify a visual cue, correlating the visual cue with a user interface control, and controlling the device using the user interface control. The visual image may be received from a camera that is part of an automobile, and the user interface control may include a control for a radio to tune to a radio station; a speed control for controlling a speed of the automobile corresponding to a speed sign visual cue; or a navigation system control for controlling a navigation system based on traffic signs. Other variations include an apparatus and computer-readable media including instructions for performing the methods.

The present invention disclosed a method for operating a software radio receiver. Said method comprises receiving a radio signal, determining a signal quality of said radio signal, selecting a suitable algorithm for a function in the receiver in accordance with said determined signal quality and applying said selected algorithm to the radio signal.

The invention relates to a processing of a data word in a plurality of processing cycles. In order to improve the efficiency of the processing, the data word is divided for each cycle into a plurality of successive data blocks. The blocks are shifted by one block from one cycle to the next. In each of the cycles, each of the successive blocks is processed in sequence. In the first cycle, the processing results for successive blocks are moreover stored in a memory at memory addresses which change uniformly from one processing result to the next. In each subsequent processing cycle, the processing results for the successive blocks of the subsequent cycle are combined with processing results stored in the memory during a preceding cycle at memory addresses which change uniformly from one processing result in the subsequent cycle to the next.
