Patent EP-1590729-A1 (EP)
Inventor: COUVILLION WARREN C JR
IPC: G06T19/00
Filed: 2003-02-06
Abstract: Virtual reality system transposes a user's position and movement in real space to virtual space. The virtual reality system includes a locomotion interface that outputs signals indicative of a user's position in real space. The locomotion interface includes a pressure-sensing mat having a base layer, a plurality of pressure sensing elements and a counter-force generating layer formed over the base layer, and a top layer formed over the plurality of pressure-sensing elements. The plurality of pressure sensing elements output a signal indicative of pressure applied to the top layer. A virtual reality processor uses the signals output by the locomotion interface to produce an output indicative of the user's position in the virtual space corresponding to the user's position and movement in the real space. A display uses the output from the virtual reality processor to produce an image of the virtual space.

Abstract: In a personal identification device using blood vessel patterns, means capable of downsizing the device is especially provided. The personal identification device comprises an infrared ray source and a light receiving element row containing a plurality of light receiving elements. In personal identification, a finger is passed over the light receiving element row. An image containing a two-dimensional blood vessel pattern of the finger is created from an output of the light receiving element row and displacement information of the passing finger. The blood vessel pattern thus obtained is checked for a match with a previously registered pattern to perform the personal identification. The device can be downsized and can be easily mounted in a place having a limited mounting space, such as in cars and cell phones.

Title: Centrifugal pump for washing apparatus
Inventor: SADAKANE KOUICHI
IPC: F04D13/06
Filed: 2004-01-26
Abstract: A pump (1) of the present invention includes a
circular stator (10) at the outside of a peripheral wall of
a casing (41). A pump chamber (20) is formed inside the
casing (41). Furthermore, a circular rotor magnet (24) is
arranged inside the casing that faces with the stator (10)
in the radial direction with a radial gap , and a
peripheral wall of the casing (41) is located in between
the radial gap. The rotor magnet (24) is fixed to an
impeller (27) integrally and is supported in the pump
chamber (20) in a rotatable manner. An end of the casing
(41) is opened so as to form an inlet (21) that
communicates with the pump chamber (20). In addition, the
other end of the casing (41) is sealed with a bottom plate
(42). A part of the peripheral wall that is close to the
sealed end of the casing (41) is opened and connected to a
delivery pipe (45) so as to open to an outlet (22). Thus, a
small size, a low cost and a long life of the pump (1) are
achieved. In addition, the pump (1) having this structure
is used for a washing apparatus, e.g., a dishwasher (2) so
that the entire apparatus can be realized with a small size
and a low cost.

Patent EP-1505684-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LANDOLT OLIVER D
IPC: H01P3/02
Filed: 2004-04-26
Abstract: A lossless (or low loss) transmission line can be constructed using an auxiliary conductor
12 inductively coupled to the primary conductor 11 and driven by the primary conductor through
an active shunt network distributed along the transmission line. The auxiliary conductor is
placed close enough to the primary conductor so that the two conductors have a substantial
amount of mutual inductance compared to their self-inductance. The transmission line can be
operated in differential mode. In one embodiment, a combination of conductance G2 and
transconductance Gm2 are used to cancel losses and control dispersion in the transmission line
for high frequency signal transmission. Transconductance is achieved in a differential
transmission line by inducing a signal from each transmission line into closely coupled parallel
lines, adding active elements between each of the coupled lines to a common ground plane 13
and controlling the current through each active element by the signal on the opposite
transmission line.

Abstract: The present invention combines bending mode mechanical (f<SUB>rm</SUB>) and electrical (f<SUB>re</SUB>) resonances, whereby a relatively good efficiency can be achieved within a relatively broad frequency range (Deltaf<SUB>3</SUB>). An electrical resonance (f<SUB>rc</SUB>) or mechanical resonance is designed to be situated in the same order of magnitude as another mechanical resonance (f<SUB>rm</SUB>), but separated therefrom. Preferably, the separation (Deltaf<SUB>2</SUB>) is smaller than 2f<SUB>1</SUB>/Q<SUB>1</SUB>, where f<SUB>1 </SUB>is the resonance frequency for the resonance having lowest quality value, and Q<SUB>1 </SUB>is the corresponding quality value of the mechanical resonance. An electromechanical motor comprising a driving element and electrical resonance circuit according to the above ideas may comprise a double bimorph driving element having one single actuating point influencing a body to be moved. The double bimorph driving element is excited in bending vibrations perpendicular to a main displacement direction, whereby both tangential and perpendicular motions are created by bending mode vibrations.
