Abstract: A non-invasive method for determining the articular point of a knee joint is disclosed. The method uses a surgical navigation system having stereoscopic cameras which track the positions of infrared emitting or reflecting markers attached to leg portions on either side of the knee joint. A movable marker is used to palpate known landmarks on the leg portions to determine their positions. The leg portions are moved to determine the trajectories of the landmarks relative to the joint. Positional information from the cameras is fed to a data processing system with resident software which uses the positional information and trajectories to mathematically determine the positions of the knee joint articular point according to the laws of kinematics.

Abstract: There are described an excimer laser unit (1) and a method of controlling the unit to perform cornea ablation to reduce presbyopia, wherein the excimer laser unit (1) is controlled to form on the cornea a photoablative pattern inducing a fourth-other ocular aberration, in particular a positive spherical aberration. More specifically, an aberrometric map of the eye is first acquired indicating the visual defects of the eye, which include second-order visual defects such as hypermetropia, astigmatism, and myopia, and higher-order visual defects such as spherical aberration; if the detected spherical aberration is negative, it is reduced by numerically increasing its absolute value to obtain an overcorrect photoablative inducing positive spherical aberration; conversely, if the detected spherical aberration is positive, its sign is changed and its absolute value increased numerically to obtain an overcorrect photoablative pattern inducing positive spherical aberration; and the photoablative pattern so generated is supplied to the excimer laser unit (1) for implementation on the cornea.

Abstract: A coefficient sequence of a spreading sequence is
sequentially shifted one pitch at a time, transmission data
is multiplied by a plurality of coefficient sequences to
produce a plurality of transmission data, and the plurality
of produced transmission data are added up to produce a
transmission data sequence. Alternatively, the
coefficient sequence of the spreading sequence is multiplied
by the transmission data, the result is sequentially shifted
one pitch at a time, and a plurality of transmission data
are added up to produce a transmission data sequence.
Transmission data is multiplied by the coefficient sequence
of a spreading sequence to produce a finite-length signal
and this finite-length signal is repeated an infinite number
of times to produce an infinite-length signal. Transmission
data, which is longer than the coefficient sequence, is cut
out from this infinite-length signal to produce a
transmission data sequence. This makes it possible to
include transmission data into a spreading sequence and,
therefore, when the transmission data is modulated through
spread spectrum, an increase in the amplitude of a signal
is reduced and the dynamic range of an amplifier on the
receiving side is reduced.

Abstract: An injection manifold has a main runner provided with a supply inlet intermediate opposite ends of the runner. A number of branches intersect with the runner along its length so as to be disposed at unequal distances from the inlet. In order to achieve more simultaneous delivery, uniform fill rate, and identity of temperature of hot melt across all cavities of a multi-cavity set to achieve more uniform cooling of the preforms, restrictor pin assemblies are provided in association with certain of the branches to adjustably constrict the space available for melt flow from the runner into the branch. In a preferred form each restrictor pin assembly includes a pin aligned axially with the branch and passing transversely through the runner, the pin being adjustable between a fully extended, maximum constriction position in which the tip of the pin is located within the branch and a fully retracted, open position in which the tip is withdrawn out of the branch and is spaced below the opening of the branch.
