Title: Improvements relating to the control of ions
Inventor: RAPTAKIS EMMANUEL
IPC: H01J49/04
Filed: 2010-05-24
Abstract: A mass spectrometer comprises an ion pulse means for producing ion pulses in a first vacuum chamber, ion trap means for receiving and trapping the ion pulses for mass analysis in a second vacuum chamber, and ion-optical lens means arranged between the ion pulse means and the ion trap means for receiving the ion pulses and outputting ions therefrom to the ion trap means. A first lens electrode and a second lens electrode collectively define an optical axis and are adapted for distributing a first electrical potential and second electrical potential therealong. Lens control means vary non-periodically with time the first electrical potential relative to the second electrical potential to control as a function of ion mass-to-charge ratio the kinetic energy of ions which have traversed the ion optical lens means. This controls the mass range of the ions receivable by the ion trap from the ion optical lens means.

Title: Replacing low quality heart rate measurements with a simulated signal generated form a relationship between measured activity level and heart rate
Inventor: BERCKMANS DANIEL
IPC: A61B5/0205
Filed: 2012-03-28
Abstract: The heart rate of a human or animal is monitored by measuring at least one heart rate or electrocardiogram (ECG) signal and measuring at least one activity level signal. When the heart rate or ECG signal is of low quality it is rejected and replaced by a simulated heart rate or ECG signal. The simulated heart rate signal is calculated from a previously determined relationship between the activity signal and the heart rate or ECG signal. The relationship is determined at times when the heart rate or ECG data is of good quality. The heart rate signal may be of low quality or unreliable due to poor electrode contact. The rejection of an unreliable the heart rate signal may be determined based on quality criteria (e.g. skewness, frequency content of signal). Physical activity level may be measured using an accelerometer, camera system or GPS system.

Title: Multi camera shutter release
Inventor: LAI PENG-CHENG
IPC: G03B17/38
Filed: 2012-08-15
Abstract: A device for extending and controlling signals of a camera shutter release cable through an isolated switch is provided. A single short signal is generated to a camera shutter release cable by a manual button, another control device or a computer command, and extended into a multiple short signal with well isolation, good stability and enough voltage level through multiple isolated switches, so as to simultaneously activate several cameras connected in parallel to focus and snap. Therefore, it is able to prevent that the voltage levels provided by a single short signal are too low to simultaneously activate all of those cameras connected from the interference between them. Moreover, the foregoing multiple short signal can further be individually, partially or together controlled by a computer, a USB and a CPU, so as to simultaneously activate the cameras connected in parallel to focus and snap rapidly.

Title: Monitoring video waveforms
Inventor: ADAMS PHILLIP
IPC: G01R13/34
Filed: 2013-02-22
Abstract: A video signal waveform monitor receives an input video signal 401 composed of video lines. A video signal digitizer 402 samples the input video signal at video sample points to generate a sequence of video pixel data. An acquisition framestore 403 is organized into a video pixel array into which the sequence of video pixel data is written so as to represent a raster of the input video signal. A level analyzer 405 reads the video pixel data row-by-row from segments of the video pixel array and increments video level data at addresses in cache memory 406 in response to the serially read video pixel data, from which a sequence of video level data is generated. An output framestore 407 is provided into which the sequence of video level data is written, and which when read for display represents the level of the waveform of the input video signal. The level analyzer may be further configured to read video level data from the pixel array into the cache memory. This video level data corresponds to a previous analysis of a matching segment of the video pixel array so as to provide a persistence effect.
