Inventor: FRAZIER JAMES A
IPC: G02B23/02
Filed: 1995-06-21
Abstract: An optical system having the features of a wide angle lens, a deep field lens and a close focusing lens in comprised of an objective lens, a field lens and a relay lens aligned on an optical axis in that sequence for the objective lens to form an intermediate image at or near the field lens and for the field lens and relay lens to transmit that same image to a smaller final image at the plane of the film of a film camera or charge coupled device of a video camera. The objective lens preferably has a fixed focal length and a wide open aperture for forming the intermediate image of a larger size than is otherwise normal for an objective lens of that focal length. Preferably, the relay lens has the iris and focusing mechanism whereby the objective lens and field lens are not required to be used for aperture control and focusing. The optical system provides an extended optical axis for accommodating lighting of a near object being photographed. In modifications of the basic optical system, the optical axis is turned 90° one or more times and rotatable joints are provided in the lens barrel for versatile positioning of the objective lens relative to the camera with appropriate prisms for inverting and reversing the orientation of the final image at the film or CCD detector plane.

Abstract: A displacement detecting apparatus includes an error correcting circuit through which a pair of sine wave signals detected by a detecting head unit are corrected. A signal detecting circuit receives the pair of sine wave signals whose phases are shifted by about 90°, and detects a magnitude of one of the two sine wave signal when the other one of the two sine wave signals crosses with a reference voltage level. The error correcting circuit calculates an error correction amount of each sine wave signal according to the detected magnitude of the signal and eliminates the calculated error correction amount from the signals. Therefore, the sine wave signals of position information are accurately corrected in direct-current component, voltage ratio and phase difference.

Abstract: There is provided a method and apparatus for reproducing data which allow a reduction in the time required for recovery from the occurrence of an error. 
     In a method and apparatus for reproducing data wherein data read from a disc is demodulated and written in a memory and data read from the memory is decoded to reproduce the original data by employing an arrangement wherein data is recorded in the disc on a sector basis; sector information associated with the sectors of demodulated data is detected; and writing and reading operations on the memory means are controlled based on the detected information. Control over the memory and distribution of data is performed on the basis of units (sectors) for data access to a disc. Therefore, even if the synchronization of data at the distribution device and decoder is disturbed, the synchronization on a sector basis can be recovered.

Abstract: Data decoding apparatus decodes data reproduced from a record medium (1) and stored in a memory (7). Since decoding requires a sufficient amount of data to be stored in memory, especially when the data is, for example, predictively encoded, a system controller (21) inhibits previously read data from being overwritten in the memory (7). Thus, when a reverse reproduction operation is suddenly initiated during a forward reproduction operation, a sufficient amount of data is reserved in the memory (7) for decoding the data in the reverse direction. Similarly, the system controller (21) inhibits the memory (7) from writing over previously read data during reverse reproduction and a sufficient amount of data is reserved for decoding when forward reproduction is resumed.
