Title: Foveated panoramic camera system
Inventor: CUTLER ROSS G
IPC: H04N7/14
Filed: 2005-07-26
Abstract: A foveated panoramic camera system includes multiple cameras oriented so that individual images captured by the cameras can be combined to form a panoramic image. Each of the cameras includes a lens having a focal length that corresponds to a field of view for the camera. A field of view for a camera overlaps with the field(s) of view of each adjacent camera. At least one of the cameras has a field of view that differs from fields of view of other cameras for capturing images that are situated at a greater distance from the camera system than are images captured by the other cameras. As a result, a more uniform resolution is achieved across all images captured by the multiple cameras. A mirror assembly is utilized to reflect object images into the multiple cameras to achieve a near center of projection for the camera system.

Abstract: A nonwoven papermaker~s fabric, usable in the dryer section of a paper machine, has a spiral wound machine direction (MD) base layer of raw stock which is wound around a pair of parallel rolls or cylinders until the desired length and width is achieved. The spiral wound MD layer is overlaid with a cross-machine direction (CD) layer of similar or dissimilar raw stock and mated by any of a number of means. The spiral wound MD layer can also be mated to another MD layer spiraled in the opposite direction and in one embodiment further mated to a CD layer. The fabric is preferably produced so that its neutral line is oriented toward the paper side of the fabric so that the paper sheet will stretch less than when typical dryer fabrics are used to turn the paper sheet and fabric around the dryer cylinders.

Patent CA-2532432-A1 (CA)
Title: Humidifier
Inventor: BARTHELSON STEPHEN H
IPC: F24F6/12
Filed: 2006-01-09
Abstract: A humidifier (10) is provided having a housing (11), a conventional electric motor (12). a fan blade assembly (13), a conical suction tube (14), and a cylindrical water droplet diffusing screen (15) mounted concentrically about the suction tube. The housing defines a downward air channel (32) commencing at an air inlet (33) and which extends about the bottom edge (34) of a barrier to an upward air channel (37) terminating at an air outlet (38).      The suction tube has a bottom opening (22) through which water may enter the interior space of the suction tube and a series of water outlets (23). The housing has a lower housing portion (25) which defines a water reservoir (28) adapted to hold a supply of water having a maximum water line (MWL). In use, water is drawn through the suction tube and expelled into the downward air channel as droplets. These droplets travel downwardly along the downward air channel wherein the airstream is then diverted upwardly, thereby causing heavier droplets to be withdrawn from the airstream. As the airstream continues upwardly within the upward air channel the heavier remaining droplets are also withdrawn from the airstream. As a result, the airstream exiting the humidifier contains only the smallest water droplets.
