Abstract: A force/torque sensor (1) is used as a switch, whereby, depending on the introduction of forces and torques to an operating piece (5) of the force/torque sensor (1), various software or hardware functions are triggered in a controlled device (2, 2'). The output signals from the force/torque sensor (1) are evaluated by comparison with threshold values. The selection of a device or one of several functions of a device must not be pre-selected but rather occurs as a result of the introduction of a force or a torque to the sensor. The introduced forces or torques are thus evaluated within each degree of freedom afforded the sensor. The selection of the device or the function is coincident with the triggering. The device can thus be simplified, as no dedicated device for the selection of devices or functions need be provided. Furthermore, the selection and triggering is speeded up as a result of the coincident operation.

substrate temperature, the oxygen partial pressure and the like
in proper ranges, respectively, and the photocatalyst material
is provided with excellent decomposition and hydrophilization
capability.

Inventor: TAKAHASHI HIROSHI
IPC: G06T5/00
Filed: 2003-02-26
Abstract: The present invention accurately reproduces an image pattern by referring to neighboring pixels upon determining the threshold value of a target pixel so that a delay in dot generation can be prevented while emphasizing an image transition portion so that both graininess and sharpness are improved in the image. To this end, a neighboring pixel density difference detection part obtains an absolute value of the density difference between a target pixel and its neighboring pixels and selects the density of a neighboring pixel with a large absolute value as a reference pixel density. Further, a threshold value quantity determination part determines a threshold value corresponding to the density selected by the neighboring pixel density difference detection part. Then, a quantization part outputs an output value based on a comparison between the threshold value and a corrected value obtained by adding a pre-calculated error value of neighboring pixels to an input value.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to the processing of
measured data. Especially the invention applies to the
binning procedure of data, which is measured with a CCD
(Charge-Coupled Device) sensor unit. It is the objective of
the present invention to create a solution for measurement
of radiation, in which a good signal-to-noise value is
achieved, and still it is possible to exploit standard CCD
units. This objective is achieved by selecting the binning
areas on the basis of position of defected pixels (461, 462)
in a CCD unit (411). One idea of the invention is to
determine the locations of the defected pixels and to use
this information for determining pixel groups that form the
super pixels. In a preferable embodiment of the invention
super pixels (A1-A5, B1-B5, C1-C5, D1-D5, E1-E5) are
first determined using a selected binning factor, and those
super pixels that would be affected by defected pixels are
then reduced into one or more smaller super pixels (B2i-E2i,
B2k-E2k, C4i-E4i), which are not affected by the
defects.
