Abstract: In a distance information obtaining device comprising an image pickup device (10) for picking up an optical image of an object to produce a picture signal, and a signal processing unit (18) for processing the picture signal to produce a processed signal representative of distance information between the image pickup device and each point of the object, the signal processing unit produces a reference signal by using a reference picture signal derived from the image pickup device on a preliminary process. Responsive to the reference signal, a preliminary processing unit (26) preliminarily processes the reference signal to produce a preliminary processed signal as a calibration signal. In a measuring process, the signal processing unit processes the picture signal with reference to the preliminary processed signal. Preferably, the reference picture signal should be given in the form of first and second reference picture signals derived from first and second reference optical images of first and second reference plates (16) and (16′) located at first and second distances (Z a ) and (Z b ) from the image pickup device.

Abstract: A television picture magnification system which provides real-time magnified video images includes a memory system (16,18,20,22,26) which stores L horizontal line intervals of samples representing one field of the unmagnified video image during a first time interval and which provide K of those L lines of samples during a second time interval offset from the first time interval by less than one field period. The K lines of samples provided by the memory are interpolated by the system to develop L lines of samples which represent one field of the magnified image. The offset delay between the first and second time intervals ensures that any field of the magnified image includes samples from only one field of the unmagnified image.

Abstract: A suspension control apparatus for a vehicle having a plurality of suspension units S each disposed between a road wheel and the body of a vehicle for effectively and quickly correcting any deviation of the vehicle height from a normal height level immediately upon finishing of active suspension control operations. A suspension control unit 37 responds to signals from vehicle height sensors 34, roll sensor 39, speed sensor 38, steering sensor 40 and accelerator sensor 42. It determines priority for vehicle-height control and various active suspension control operations such as roll control, nose-dive and squat control, and pitching and bouncing control so that normal vehicle-height control is stopped or inhibited while active suspension control operations are being carried out, thereby preventing the traveling attitude of the vehicle from being made unstable. Also, a vehicle-height control determining time interval from the instant when active suspension control operations has been finished until the time when vehicle-height control is restarted is substantially reduced as compared with that required in the case when the vehicle is traveling in a normal attitude without any active suspension control operation, whereby any deviation of the vehicle height from a target height level can be quickly removed to make the actual vehicle height match with a target height level in a very short time immediately after the finishing of the active suspension control operations.

Abstract: Novel antineoplastic amine-containing derivatives and methods for synthesizing such derivatives of anthracycline antibiotics are disclosed. The derivatives are useful to prepare site-selectively attached therapeutic antibody-anthracycline antibiotic conjugates which retain substantial immunospecificity of the unconjugated antibody molecule. Using the conjugates, targeted delivery of the attached antineoplastic amine derivatives of anthracycline antibiotics is achieved in vivo. Such conjugates are thus therapeutically effective against a variety of neoplastic cellular disorders when administered in vivo. Methods for preparing the antibody conjugates and for use of the conjugates in vivo are also disclosed.

Accord­ing to this method and apparatus, continuity between the roughly estimated position and the finely estimated position can be maintained, so that exact and high-resolution position detection can be performed.

Abstract: Apparatus for the creation, editing and utilising a knowledge base which contains textual information, quantitative information and pictorial images. A computer system comprised of text and image input devices, a display, a mass storage unit for the knowledge base and a programmed processor. When used as an expert authoring system, for example, in medical applications, features which are characteristic of respective conditions in a disease are established by the author and values are assigned thereto, thus creating a knowledge base of features having associated values. This created information is used by the author to evaluate what he observes in a patient or histological sample. The "valuing" of these previously established features within the parameters for values that also were established previously form a case record that also includes one or more pictorial images of valued features. The retrievability of case records and editing of valued features insures internal consistency of the knowledge base.

Abstract: For optimum bakery performance it is commonplace to hold margarines and shortenings at a temperature of around 27°C for 2-3 days. This process, known as "batch maturing", is complicated by the insulating properties of fat and requires considerable expenditure of energy and storage space. 
     It has been suggested (Oil and Fat vol 39.(12) 1986) that batch maturing may be avoided by in-line microwave irradiation during product processing. One disadvantage of using microwave irradiation is that heating of the fat is uneven and this may lead to local melting, which is undesirable, as it is necessary that the fat does not become molten during the maturing process. The specification discloses that claims, with comparative examples, a process for maturing of fat which comprises the step of illuminating a fatty body with radio-frequency radiation. This penetrates more deeply into the body and avoids uneven heating. By use of the claimed invention it is possible to dispense with batch maturing.
