Patent CA-2740929-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOLLANDER MILTON BERNARD
IPC: G01J5/02
Filed: 2000-09-15
Abstract: The invention relates to instruments, such as radiometers, which generate a laser beam for striking a target at a distance to assist in aiming the instrument at a selected area of a target. Provision is made for splitting a single beam, used for instance for centering the instrument on the target, into a plurality of beams for creating a pattern or for defining an area on the target. When a single beam is split, the resultant plural beams produced are of relatively lower power, which may be insufficient for visibility on a target at a distance. The beam splitting apparatus may be an attachment releasably engaged on the instrument, the attachment having a body structure with a relatively movable carrier incorporating a beam splitter device.  Relative movement of the carrier serves to actuate switching means controlling the power of the laser beam.

Title: Video surveillance system
Inventor: SAUER RICKIE L
IPC: G08B25/00
Filed: 2010-06-08
Abstract: A surveillance system (10) that can be used covertly or overtly for observing a remote location (A) and providing information about events occurring at that location. Sensors (100-208) are used to obtain real time information about events at the location. The sensors include imaging devices, audio equipment and sensor detecting the presence of explosives or NBC materials. A transmitter (14) converts outputs from the sensors into a secure format and the resultant information is transmitted from the remote location to another location (B) distant from the location under surveillance. At this distant location, the information is converted into a video display format and is displayed, in real time, to one or more users of the system. This enables the users to be able to immediately respond to what is happening, or not happening, at the remote location and to undertake appropriate action in response to the immediate situation at the remote location.

Title: A water pressure transfer method and a water pressure transfer article
Inventor: IKEDA WATARU
IPC: B44C1/175
Filed: 2010-07-21
Abstract: An ultraviolet-curable resin composition (30) is coated onto a dry print pattern (22) and is impregnated thereon so as to reproduce the adhesiveness of the print pattern (22). Then, by hydraulically transferring the print pattern (22) onto the surface of an article (10), a decorative layer (22D) is formed on the surface of the article (10). Subsequently, the surface of the article (10) is pre-irradiated with an ultraviolet ray, that penetrates only the surface area of the decorative layer (22D), causing the ink of the print pattern (22) to shrink, thereby forming a section (23) having minute changes in surface height on the surface of the decorative layer (22D). Thereafter, the surface of the article (10) is irradiated with an ultraviolet ray, that penetrates the entire thickness of the decorative layer (22D), so as to completely harden the entire thickness of the decorative layer (22D) without eliminating the section (23) having changes in surface height. Thus, the matting of a decorative layer can be performed in a controlled state without applying a topcoat.

Abstract: A video teleconferencing system for controlling multiple multipoint control units (MCU) from a single apparatus. The system utilizes a Virtual MCU    (VMCU) (110) to communicate with a plurality of MCUs (135, 140, 145). A user initiates a reserve conference command with the VMCU (110). If sufficient resources are available, the reservation is made and connection numbers are assigned.  When the time for the conference arises, an MCU (135, 140 145) is assigned to the conference. The participants are then connected to the conference. By using a single VMCU (110) to schedule and coordinate multiple MCUs (135, 140, 145) the present invention is able to efficiently schedule a large number of conferences. This greater efficiency in scheduling may allow users to schedule conferences without the advance notice that is usually required.

Title: Super-resolution imaging radar
Inventor: CAPRON BARBARA A
IPC: G01S13/89
Filed: 2011-02-11
Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method are disclosed for a super-resolution imaging radar (SRIR). The SRIR employs a pulse signal generator that propagates bursts of radio frequency (RF) energy. Each burst contains a number of pulses. One pulse of each burst is an ancilla pulse, and the remaining pulses are propagated towards an object. An array bucket detector (ABD) collects pulses that are reflected from the object. Also, the ancilla pulses are propagated through a virtual lens. A virtual scanning detector detects the virtual ancilla electric field. A processor calculates a virtual ancilla electric field, which would be present at the scanning detector. Further, a coincidence circuit calculates a cross-time correlation function of the electric fields of the reflected pulses that are collected by the ABD and the virtual ancilla electric field. The coincidence circuit uses cross-time correlation function results to generate pixels of an image of the object.
