Title: Methods and apparatus for imaging using a light guide bundle and a spatial light modulator
Inventor: MACAULAY CALUM E
IPC: G02B26/08
Filed: 2000-12-14
Abstract: Endoscopes and other viewing devices that control the light that contacts a sample and/or that is detected emanating from a sample. The viewing devices are particularly well suited for <i>in vivo</i> imaging, although other uses are also included. The viewing devices, and methods related thereto, comprise a spatial light modulator in the illumination and/or detection light path so that light transmitted to the target via a bundle of light guides or optical system is transmitted substantially only into the cores of the light guide bundle and not into the cladding surrounding the light guides, filler between the light guides in the bundle, or undesired light guides. Also, methods and apparatus for mapping the pixels of the spatial light modulator to the cores of the light guides in the bundle (preferably at least 3 pixels (e.g., at least 3 mirrors for a digital micromirror device) for each core), as well as for mapping the light guides of one light guide bundle to another.

Abstract: In a data communication system, data is transmitted from a control device (2) to a communication interface (6) and from there via a communication bus (8) to additional communication interfaces (12) of trigger devices (9, 10). The communication interface (6) on the control device side has inputs, to which signals from said control device (2) and a disarming switch (26) can be assigned. The disarming switch can be circumvented by a bypass switch (34) which is controlled by the control device. The state of the signal at the inputs of the communication interface on the control device side (6) is transmitted to corresponding outputs of the communication interfaces (12) of the trigger devices. A trigger device has a safety unit which is used to test at least one trigger unit, when the state of the signal of the outputs authorises such a test and the trigger voltage source is not yet charged with the full trigger voltage. In said state, the safety unit also blocks triggering as soon as the trigger voltage has been reached. The inventive system ensures a high degree of functional safety and flexibility.

Abstract: To provide an automatic vending machine capable of preventing,
at the time of carrying out a commodity from a commodity column to a
commodity receptor, the commodity from falling down due to a change
in posture of the commodity, and mitigating falling shock of the
commodity. When the commodity is carried out of the commodity column
to the commodity receptor, the commodity is caused to abut on a commodity
supporting member located on one side of the commodity receptor, and
the commodity is moved toward the other end side of the commodity
receptor with the commodity supporting member abutted thereon, whereby
the commodity is received by the commodity receptor while the commodity
is being supported by the commodity supporting member. Therefore, it
is possible to reliably prevent the contents from being damaged due
to falling down or falling shock caused by a change in posture of the
commodity during carrying-out.

Abstract: An image inputting unit (12) inputs a first image and a
second image. A matching processor (14) computes the pixel
matching between those images, so that a corresponding point
is obtained on the second image with respect to lattice
points of the mesh taken on the first image. A result
thereof is recorded as a corresponding point file. An
intermediate image generator (18) generates an intermediate
image of the first image and the second image, based on the
corresponding point file. Since the corresponding point file
is composed by lattice points alone, the amount of the data
becomes significantly small, and thereby the implementation
and application to various image effects, motion picture
compression, on-line commodity introduction, and portable
telephones can be easily realized.

Abstract: A grain aggregate is formed by bonding a plurality
of cross-linking polymeric grains via a substance
(binder) having a reactive functional group, and
alternatively, the grain aggregate is formed by bonding
at least two different types of a plurality of grains,
thus providing the grain aggregate having the improved
heat resistance, solvent resistance, strength and light-diffusing
properties. Further, a light-diffusing agent
made up of the grain aggregate has the improved light-diffusing
properties. Therefore, when applying a light-diffusing
mold article including the light-diffusing
agent to, for example, a backlight of a liquid crystal
display device, high brightness and a wide angle of
visibility can be attained. Further, by spray drying of
a dispersion liquid containing the grain aggregate, the
grain aggregate can be produced with ease.
