IPC: G06T9/00
Filed: 2002-08-08
Abstract: A method is provided for the quantization of a coefficient. The method comprises: supplying a coefficient K; supplying a quantization parameter (QP); forming a quantization value (L) from the coefficient K using a mantissa portion (Am(QP)) and an exponential portion (x Ac(QP) ). Typically, the value of x is 2. In some aspects of the method, forming a quantization value (L) from the coefficient K included L = K* A(QP) = K* Am(QP)*(2 Ac(QP) ). In other aspects, the method further comprises: normalizing the quantization value by 2 N  as follows: Ln = L/2 N  = K*Am(QP)/2 (N-Ac(QP) ). In some aspects, forming a quantization value includes forming a set of recursive quantization factors with a period P, where A(QP+P)=A(QP)/x. Forming recursive quantization factors includes forming recursive mantissa factors, where Am(QP)=Am(QP mod P), and forming recursive exponential factors, where Ae(QP) = Ae(QP mod P) - QP/P.

Title: Method and system for collecting optical data for use in time resolved optical imaging of a turbid media
Inventor: MINCU NICULAE
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2011-07-08
Abstract: There is provided a method and a system for collecting optical data for use in time resolved optical imaging wherein excitation light of a tunable wavelength is directionally propagated to impinge on a plurality of illumination points at the surface of a region of interest in a turbid media, comprising for example a biological tissue such as that comprised in small animals or in human organs. Light re-emitted with a different wavelength from a fluorescent marker present in the tissue is collected and directionally propagated towards a detector.

Title: Wireless laser power transmitter
Inventor: ALPERT ORTAL
IPC: H02J17/00
Filed: 2009-01-04
Abstract: An optical power beam transmission systems, with a directional light transmitter and receiver. The transmitter contains an amplifying laser medium, and this together with a retroreflector in the receiver, forms a laser resonator. When lasing sets in, the receiver can extract optical power through an output coupler and convert it to electrical power. The gain medium may be a disc having a thickness substantially smaller than its lateral dimensions. The laser resonator is operated as a stable resonator to ensure safe operation. This is achieved by use of an adaptive optical element, for reducing the diameter of the energy beam impinging on the gain medium, thereby increasing the overlap between the energy beam and the gain medium. As the transmitter-receiver distance is changed, such as by movement of the receiver, the adaptive optical element focal length changes to ensure that the cavity remains within its stability zone.
