Patent CA-2634671-A1 (CA)
Title: Appareil et methode permettant le controle de la qualite de signaux optiques
Inventor: OTANI AKIHITO
IPC: H04B10/079
Filed: 2007-12-11
Abstract: Une section de génération d'impulsions optiques d'échantillonnage émet des impulsions optiques d'échantillonnage d'une période différente d'un multiple entier du cycle d'horloge pour un signal de données modulant un signal optique qui fait l'objet de la surveillance par un temps de décalage prédéterminé. Une section d'échantillonnage optique échantillonne le signal optique par l'utilisation d'un modulateur optique d'électroabsorption qui se caractérise par le fait que l'absorptivité à la propagation de la lumière à travers le trajet optique varie avec la grandeur du champ électrique. Le signal optique est amené à entrer dans l'une des deux bornes optiques du modulateur optique d'électroabsorption. Les impulsions optiques d'échantillonnage sont amenées à entrer dans l'autre borne optique à travers un coupleur optique. En raison de la caractéristique de saturation d'absorption mutuelle du modulateur optique d'électroabsorption provoquée lorsque les impulsions optiques d'échantillonnage pénètrent dans l'autre borne, l'absorptivité au signal optique est diminuée, et ainsi le signal optique subit un échantillonnage. Il en résulte que le signal d'impulsion optique est amené à quitter l'autre borne optique à travers le coupleur optique.

Abstract: Le pinceau est un outil nécessaire dans le domaine professionnel et autre du peintre.  Sachant qu'un pinceau est très dispendieux et avec le temps et il devient de plus en plus performant avec l'usure car ces poils deviennent fins et peu en devenir un objet de qualité s'il est nettoyer adéquatement. Le pire ennemi de ce dernier est l'accumulation de peinture séchée à la base du pinceau, ce qui réduit considérablement sa longévité.   Sur le marché présentement il n'existe pas de moyen efficace pour nettoyer un pinceau en profondeur. La façon la plus commune utilisée est de passer sous l'eau plusieurs fois pour enlever le plus de peinture possible et on utilise un outil à poils d'acier ou autre pour enlever les résidus de peinture. Les poils de cet outil sont tellement rapprocher qu'ils ne pénètrent pas le pinceau et comme conséquence plusieurs de ceux-ci sont mal nettoyés ou endommagés.   Dans la présente invention une plaque munie de plusieurs dents coupées en angle stratégique permettent d'enlever le maximum d'accumulation de peinture sur les pinceaux tout en redressant les poils à leurs position initiale et en éliminant du même coup les poils superflus qui collent sur les murs lors des travaux de peinture et le tout en quelques minutes.   Cette accumulation ne fait que s'aggraver et peut devenir inutilisable après seulement quelques applications de peinture.   Non seulement la longévité du pinceau est réduite mais on a à considérer le temps investi au nettoyage du pinceau pour en arriver à un résultat qui n'est pas adéquat et inefficace.  Moi-même peintre décorateur depuis 15 ans j'ai passé par les même problèmes jusqu'au jour où  j'ai découvert ce moyen de nettoyer mes pinceaux qui n'existe pas du tout sur le marché. Je peux maintenant faire un bon nettoyage de mes pinceaux ce qui empêche de laisser des résidus sur les murs peinturés donc un travail beaucoup plus professionnel.

Title: System and method to force a mobile device into a secure state
Inventor: BROWN MICHAEL K
IPC: G06F21/00
Filed: 2006-12-21
Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for implementation on a mobile device to force the mobile device into a secure state upon detection or determination of a triggering event. Once it is determined that a triggering event has occurred, each application operating on the mobile device is caused to immediately unreference sensitive objects and a secure garbage collection operation is performed upon the unreferenced sensitive objects to render data associated therewith unreadable. The mobile device is then caused to enter a secure state, in which the mobile device cannot be accessed without authorization. A microprocessor within the mobile device is configured to determine the existence of the triggering event according to a configuration data structure and to perform the secure garbage collection.
