Abstract: A method of dispensing a therapeutic fluid from a line includes providing an inlet line connectable to an upstream fluid source. The inlet line is in downstream fluid communication with a pumping chamber. The pumping chamber has a pump outlet. The method also includes actuating a force application assembly so as to restrict retrograde flow of fluid through the inlet while pressurizing the pumping chamber to urge flow through the pump outlet. A corresponding system employs the method.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electromagnetic spring pressure brake comprising a coil carrier (1) provided with a coil (2) fixed therein for ventilating the brake, and a co-operating armature disk (3) which is axially pushed away from pressure springs (12) arranged on the periphery, by said pressure springs, and is axially guided on bolts (13). The invention is characterised in that the form and the material of the coil carrier (1) are optimised in terms of weight and magnetic flux with the coil (2) contained therein. The aim of the invention is to obtain a high level of torque with a small structure and to structurally integrate the brake into a very narrow region e.g. a robot arm. To this end, light materials such as aluminium and thin disks are used, but magnetic and friction properties must be maintained in order to achieve a high level of torque.

Abstract: An anti-copy programme signal is prodded. Copies of the anti-copy video pulses made on a video recorder experience reduced quality and interference in playback making them unpleasant to watch. The uncopied signal can be viewed without any material effect on picture quality. The signal comprises a first modulated wave-form 34 added to the vertical synchronisation pulses 16 of the signal and a second modulated wave-form 36 added to several lines 6 of the picture signal before the vertical blanking section 12. The presence of these features together has been found to be provide a surprising accumulative effectiveness in causing interference in the reproduction of the modified video signal during playback of the copied video signal, that is greater than the effectiveness provided by the different features taken separately.

Abstract: The method involves reducing the size of an initial image for obtaining a reduced image, and detecting the red eye on the reduced image by localization of a candidate of the red eye and obtaining corresponding coordinations. The candidate is validated or rejected based on the size criteria, form and presence of skin with reduced and average proximity of the candidate. The coordinates of the valid red eye are converted into a scale of the initial image, and the red spot of the candidate of the valid red eye is corrected by replacing the red spot by appropriate color for obtaining final image.
