Patent EP-0800082-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SMITH JOHN L
IPC: G01N31/22
Filed: 1997-04-03
Abstract: A reagent test strip is adapted for use in a blood glucose meter. A sample
of whole blood is applied to one surface of a matrix on the strip and the meter
measures the reflectance of the opposite surface of the matrix at about 635 nm
and 700 nm and calculates from the reflectances the concentration of glucose in
the sample. The portion of the applied sample that penetrates the matrix and is
visible from the testing surface does not absorb to any appreciable extent at
700 nm. Nevertheless, the glucose-containing sample interacts with the
components of the reagent-containing matrix to cause a change in reflectance at
700 nm that simulates the effect of the blood color. As a result, the strip can be
used in meters that measure glucose concentration in whole blood samples in
the presence of optically visible hemoglobin.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method for controlling the shutter speed
of a digital still camera and a method thereof. An optical
block unit opens/closes a shutter according to the shutter
speed and condenses light received from an object during a
predetermined exposure time, and a photoelectric conversion
unit forms the light received through the optical block unit
by a photoelectric conversion. In addition, a movement
detection unit detects a movement variation between the
present image signal and an image signal previously applied
prior to the present image as a shutter button for
opening/closing the shutter is turned on, and a shutter speed
control unit controls the shutter speed of the optical block
unit proportionally to the movement variation detected by the
movement detection unit.

Abstract: Methods and associated apparatus for using a dual-boot capable programmable device and for updating programmed information in such a dual-boot capable programmable device. The apparatus of the present invention includes a primary boot memory device (108), a secondary boot memory device (110), and means for selecting between the two memory devices for purposes of "booting" the dual-boot mode device (100, 114..122). In particular, a reset switch (122) of the apparatus of the present invention resets devices in the dual-boot capable programmable device and is coupled to a selection device (114..120). The selection device (114..120) multiplexes signals from the two boot memory devices onto the corresponding bus signals of the dual-boot capable programmable device. When a "long" reset switch activation is sensed (118), the selection device selects a first of the two boot memory devices for coupling to the programmable device. A "short" activation (120) of the reset switch selects the other boot memory device. The present invention also includes methods (200..214, 400..410) for updating the contents of the two boot memory devices so as to avoid an inoperable state encountered due to failure of the update process in a single boot memory device. In particular, both boot memory devices are updated in sequence. The second memory update (206..214) is prevented if the first memory update (200..202) is determined to have failed (204).

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling air-fuel ratio in an engine

system sends the fuel vapor in a fuel tank (1) to an intake
passage (10). The actual air-fuel ratio is computed from the
oxygen concentration (VOx) of the exhaust gas. An electronic
control unit (ECU 51) adjusts the amount of fuel injected
from an injector (7). The ECU (51) sets a feedback
correction coefficient FAF to correct the difference between
the actual air-fuel ratio and a predetermined target air-fuel
ratio. The feedback correction coefficient FAF is feedback
controlled. The ECU (51) further considers fluctuations of
the air-fuel ratio caused by the purging system in accordance
with the operating state and operating history of the engine
(8).
