Abstract: L'invention concerne un système vidéo créant une ombre virtuelle d'un objet d'avant-plan filmé en face d'un écran bleu avec une caméra vidéo principale. L'ombre virtuelle est créée au moyen d'une deuxième caméra vidéo placée en tant que source de lumière virtuelle. Les images provenant des deux caméras sont traitées par un dispositif d'incrustation couleur, afin de séparer l'objet d'avant-plan. L'image vidéo provenant de la deuxième caméra est traitée de façon à créer l'ombre virtuelle et les deux images vidéo sont combinées avec une image d'arrière-plan. Des systèmes de localisation d'objet et de guidage d'acteur permettent à l'acteur de trouver facilement son chemin autour de l'ensemble et de fixer son regard sur les objets virtuels apparaissant ou disparaissant du studio. Ce système de guidage donne à l'acteur le minutage des différents événements qui ont lieu dans le studio. Les marquages spéciaux sont totalement invisibles à la caméra, ainsi qu'aux téléspectateurs, soit parce qu'ils sont projetés dans une couleur d'incrustation, soit parce qu'ils ne sont actifs que pendant les suppressions virtuelles de la caméra, telles que l'intervalle de suppression vertical ou l'intervalle de suppression horizontal en NTSC, PAL, SECAM ou dans un autre format de signaux vidéo.

Abstract: A pressurizing apparatus for pressurizing fluid contained in a patient fluid bag is described which has a novel teardrop pressurizing chamber. The pressure apparatus includes a door and base which each have complimentary teardrop cavities formed therein. When the door is in the closed position over the base, the teardrop pressurizing chamber is formed. A teardrop bladder bag is located interior to the base and can be inflated to apply pressure to a patient fluid bag. A regulator allows adjustment of the desired pressure. A gauge allows monitoring of the pressure. A valve allows the pressurizing device to be turned on and off. The teardrop pressurizing chamber allows the pressurizing apparatus to come up to pressure in a more expeditious manner. The conformance of the pressurizing means to the teardrop pressurizing chamber also adds to the efficiency of the pressurizing of the patient fluid bag and, additionally, allows for uniform pressure throughout a procedure.

Abstract: Selon cette invention, on utilise une fenêtre (157) pratiquée dans une tranchée en vue de réaliser une connexion électrique avec une couche interne telle qu'une couche de diffusion inférieure (103), cette couche possédant une bonne conductivité électrique et se trouvant à l'intérieur d'un dispositif à semi-conducteurs bipolaire isolé par des tranchées (119) et formant, par exemple, un sous-collecteur d'un transistor NPN. La fenêtre est remplie d'un matériau électroconducteur et s'étend de la surface du dispositif à la couche de diffusion inférieure (103) de sorte que le matériau électroconducteur soit en contact avec cette couche de diffusion inférieure. La fenêtre (157) est alignée sur une paroi latérale de la tranchée (119) par attaque chimique sélective et peut être formée en même temps que les fenêtres de contact pour la métallisation; elle est ensuite remplie lors de l'étape de métallisation de façon à venir en contact avec la couche de diffusion inférieure. Dans le cas d'un transistor PNP latéral, la fenêtre peut avoir la forme d'une gorge fermée constituant la limite extérieure de la surface de base et passant tout autour du transistor. La paroi latérale externe d'une tranchée fermée peut être biseautée à 45° de sorte qu'il n'y ait pas dans la tranchée de coins internes avec des angles trop petits, ce qui facilite le remplissage avec l'oxyde.

Abstract: In order to control traffic signal installations according to traffic, known vehicle sensors (12, 14) measure traffic data and transmit said data via lines to control units (3) of traffic signal installations (1). Up to now, the vehicle sensors (12, 14) are placed only up to distances of approximately 50 meters away from the traffic signal installation (1) due to increased line laying costs. As a result, additional remote existing traffic data can not be acquired for controlling. The vehicle sensors (12, 14) are equipped with a solar power device (16) and wirelessly transmit the detected traffic data via a radio transmitter (17) assigned to the vehicle sensor (12, 14) to a radio receiver (22) assigned to the control unit (3). Due to a power saving layout of the components the vehicle sensor (12, 14) works self-sufficiently. As a result, it is thus affordable to operate a traffic signal installation (1) at greater distances. The invention also relates to controlling light signal installations according to traffic.

Abstract: An acoustic wave transmission system comprises an acoustic wave generating metal tubular member (12) for converting information about the bottom of a borehole, which is obtained by a bottom hole sensor (21), into an acoustic wave. The acoustic wave generating metal tubular member includes a acoustic wave generating mechanism (25) having at least a magnetostrictive oscillator (26), which is mounted in a recess (28) formed in an outer wall of the acoustic wave generating metal tubular member, and on which a compressive load is imposed by means of a pre-load mechanism using a vise (29). The magnetostrictive oscillator is constructed of a stack of thin plates each made of a metal magnetostrictive material having a property of increasing its dimensions when magnetized, the thin plates being bonded together by a heat-resistant adhesive. The magnetostrictive oscillator can thus have a buckling strength large enough to resist the compressive load imposed thereon by the pre-load mechanism and a stress due to a strain caused in itself. The acoustic wave generating metal tubular member further includes an excitation current supplier (24) for supplying either a rectangular, sinusoidal, or triangular alternating excitation current modulated with the information about the bottom of the borehole and having a frequency that is half the carrier frequency of the acoustic wave, or a series of excitation pulses modulated with the information about the bottom of the borehole and having a pulse repetition rate that is equal to the carrier frequency of the acoustic wave, to an excitation winding wound around the magnetostrictive oscillator. <IMAGE>
