Abstract: Dispositif de visualisation omnidirectionnelle d'images fournissant l'orientation horizontale et verticale, la rotation et le grossissement au sein d'un champ de vision hémisphérique, non doté de parties mobiles. Ledit dispositif de formation d'images repose sur l'effet selon lequel l'image produite par une lentille à grand angulaire extrême (1) qui produit une image circulaire d'un champ de vision hémisphérique entier, peut être corrigée mathématiquement à l'aide d'un circuit électronique à grande vitesse (5, 6, 7, 12 & 13). Plus spécifiquement, une image à grand angulaire extrême issue d'une source quelconque d'acquisition d'images (2) est saisie dans la mémoire (4) du dispositif, une transformation est effectuée pour la région de vision concernée et pour la direction de vision et une image corrigée est produite en tant que signal d'image vidéo, afin d'être vue, enregistrée ou analysée. Par conséquent, ce dispositif peut effectuer les fonctions d'orientation horizontale, et verticale, d'inclinaison, de rotation et de prise de vue en zoom dans l'intégralité d'un champ de vision hémisphérique, sans qu'aucun mécanisme mécanique soit nécessaire. Le mode de réalisation préféré dudit dispositif de transformation d'images peut fournir des images corrigées en temps réel, compatibles avec un équipement vidéo standard. Ledit dispositif peut être utilisé pour toute application où l'on pourrait envisager un mécanisme conventionnel de mobilité horizontale et verticale ou d'orientation, entre autres à des fins d'inspection, de contrôle, de surveillance et l'acquisition d'images ciblées.

Abstract: A probe station is equipped with an integrated guarding system which facilitates the use of the station for low-current measurements, as well as integrated Kelvin connections to eliminate voltage losses caused by line resistances. The station has a chuck assembly (20) which consists of at least three chuck assembly elements (80, 81, 83). A first element (80) supports the test device, while an underlying second element (81) acts as a guard to reduce leakage currents. These elements are electrically insulated from each other and from their underlying supporting structure, which is the third element (83). Ready-to-use, selectively detachable electrical connector assemblies (108, 110) provide for signal and guard connections to the first and second chuck assembly elements (80, 81) respectively, as well as providing Kelvin connections thereto. The capacitance between the respective chuck assembly elements (80, 81, 83) is extremely low due to the provision of air space as the primary electrical insulator. Unique electrical connectors (128, 130) for individually-positionable probes (30) provide both guarding and Kelvin connection capability together with separate EMI shielding movable in unison with each probe individually.

Abstract: A battery charge controller and fuel gauge which accurately monitors the voltage, temperature, and charge and discharge current of a rechargeable battery, and calculates the battery's charge capacity and charge level. Each time the battery is fully discharged, any calculated charge level remaining is divided by two and subtracted from the previously calculated charge capacity. When the battery is fully charged, the charge level is set equal to the charge capacity. During subsequent charge and discharge, the current is converted to a coulomb count and added or subtracted from the charge level to maintain an accurate charge level. Fast charge inefficiency due to temperature is considered by subtracting a temperature proportional factor before the charge level of the battery is updated. The charge level, voltage and temperature are used to determine the optimal fast charge termination point to achieve full charge and prevent temperature abuse and overcharge. A fast charge is applied only if the battery is within proper voltage and temperature ranges. The charge controller includes a microcontroller circuit within the same battery pack as the battery, which is powered by the battery when AC power is unavailable. The microcontroller circuit consumes very little power, measures circuit errors to assure data accuracy, times periods of self-discharge and updates the charge level accordingly. The microcontroller circuit also includes memory to store the battery charge information and a communication port to provide the charge information to a computer system connected to the battery pack.

La lumière réfléchie tombe sur un réseau de diffraction (70) et est rétroréfléchie vers la surface sphérique (65) qui la renvoie vers un dispositif à couplage de charges (75) afin d'effectuer l'analyse du spectre généré. Le système est pourvu d'une fente (60) et d'un diaphragme de champ (56) dimensionnés de sorte que parmi tous les types de lentilles susceptible d'être testés avec les tolérances indiquées, aussi bien d'ordre sphérique que cylindrique ou prismatique, le spectromètre (S) voit toujours uniquement une partie de la source de lumière étendue uniforme (50).

Abstract: This invention pertains to a method for controlling wound scar production by administering a calcium antagonist, alone or in a combination with or followed by a steroid, to the wound site. The method can be used to minimize wound scars, such as hypertrophic wound healing disorders, keloids and burn scar contractures in humans or other mammals, particularly those individually prone to excessive scarring. Calcium antagonist treatment can also be used to control diseases associated with excessive scarring, such as cirrhosis of the liver, constructive pericarditis, Dupuytren's disease of the hand, plantar fibrosis of the foot, and various other fibromatoses.
