Title: Rotating milking platform for goats
IPC: A01K1/12
Filed: 1995-02-17
Abstract: The rotating platform has a radial human passageway between two animal housings (6). To make the passageway entirely free the reinforcing rims (5) located on the internal circumference of the platform are discontinued over this sector. The local weakness generated by this discontinuity is compensated for by enlarging the platform (4) and moving the lower roller track (1) outwards. Upper wheels (2) compensate for the weakening of the platform. Off-centring the roller track and the stabiliser and guide support feet (3) increase the space reserved for the milking equipment (7) and its different circuits.

Title: Measuring displacement in sequence of images for moving object discrimination
Inventor: FERRE THIERRY
IPC: G06T7/20
Filed: 1995-07-13
Abstract: In the displacement measuring method, each image is segmented into homogenous regions, delimiting each region by ridges formed by the luminance gradient, and measuring the displacement of a region between one image N and another image M in the same sequence. The measurement is by displacement and correlation in the image M of a window taken from the image N and superposed on the image M. The images are segmented by computing the luminance gradient and smoothing the gradient. A morphology operator is then applied to separate the image along lines of peak luminance gradient.
