Abstract: The method involves recording an image by an image recording device i.e. digital video camera, and producing a gradient image (25) from the image recorded by the device. An image area exceeding a preset measure of symmetry or a part of the image area is determined in the recorded image. A relevant image section for shape detection of the image is determined based on the image area of the part of the image area, and the shape detection is executed in the image section for detecting potential imaging of symmetrical objects. Edge detection is executed for producing a processed image. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a computer program with a program code unit for executing steps of a symmetric object detecting method (2) a computer program product with a program code unit for executing steps of a symmetric object detecting method (3) a device for detecting a symmetric object.

IPC: G01N21/64
Filed: 2007-03-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a microelectronic sensor device for the detection of target components that comprise label particles, for example magnetic particles (1). The sensor device comprises a carrier (11) with a binding surface (12) at which target components can collect and optionally bind to specific capture elements. An incident light beam (L1) is transmitted into the carrier and totally internally reflected at the binding surface (12). The amount of light in the reflected light beam (L2) and optionally also of fluorescence light emitted by target components at the binding surface is then detected by a light detector (31). Evanescent light generated during the total internal reflection is affected (absorbed, scattered) by target components and/or label particles (1) at the binding surface (12) and will therefore be missing in the reflected light beam (L2). This can be used to determine the amount of target components at the binding surface (12) from the amount of light in the reflected light beam (L2, L2a, L2b). A magnetic field generator (41) is optionally used to generate a magnetic field (B) at the binding surface (12) by which magnetic label particles (1) can be manipulated, for example attracted or repelled.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wireless transmission system capable of exerting a maximum path diversity effect by using combinations formed by a plurality of symbol waveforms even when a maximum number of effective branches is limited to a small number. A transmission timing controlling section (23) determines a timing delayed from a reference timing by a predetermined delay amount as a transmission start timing. A modulating section (21) modulates a signal, by using one symbol waveform among a plurality of symbol waveform candidates, utilizing a modulation scheme in which a phase transition of a symbol waveform, which exerts an anti-multipath property by demodulating the signal on the receiving side, represents a waveform being changed, and then transmits the modulated signal at a transmission start timing. A predetermined delay amount is set such that the number of reception timings, each indicating a timing at which a receiving station (12) receives a signal, is a plural number and is less than or equal to a predetermined maximum number of effective branches for each symbol waveform, and such that each time difference between the reception timings is greater than or equal to a predetermined delay resolution and less than or equal to a predetermined maximum delay.
