Abstract: An intraocular prosthesis for implanting in an annular void extending radially into the tissues of the eye between the anterior surface of the cornea of the eye and the posterior surface of the ciliary body of the eye, for replacing for example a diseased intraocular portion of the eye which has been removed. The prosthesis is a circular, transparent, elastomeric optical element having a peripheral edge and a non-rigid or flexible porous skirt which extends radially from the periphery of the element. The skirt encircles the element and is positioned to extend radially into the void. An annular, flexible porous portion having a pore size in the range of about 25-90 microns, and preferably about 60 microns, is included with the skirt. The porous portion surrounds the element and is disposed in contact with the tissues of the eye surrounding the void to allow fibrous growth into the pores of the porous portion. A plurality, preferably six, spoke-like, porous extensions may be included. Hence, with the prosthesis intraocular portions of the eye, such as a diseased cornea or a diseased lens, may be replaced. For replacement of the cornea, the ocular element would have a convex, anterior surface and a concave, posterior surface.

Abstract: A method and inhibitor are provided for substantially diminishing the deleterious effects of a bomb blast such as is common place with terrorist activities. A generally flexible container (2 & 3,25,36) filled with a liquid, generally water, is shaped and adapted to substantially cover a bomb (12,30) to obscure substantially all open spaces from the bomb. The water serves to absorb a large proportion of the energy of the bomb blast and therefore reduces the most dangerous effects of bombs namely that of secondary shrapnel which generally does the most damage and the container and water prevent, to a substantial extent, any primary shrapnel or other debris from being blown out with substantial force. The invention also provides special containers of various different designs as well as a method of manufacturing such containers which are preferably of a resilient nature.

Abstract: A process and apparatus are described for producing drawstring packets. The packets are produced by forming thread loops (L) with tags (T) attached to their ends and placing the packet web material (W) onto the portions of a the loops further from the tags. After securing the loops in their shaped form temporarily to one face of the web, the tags and the remaining portions of thread are placed on the other face of the web to be attached there releasably. In subsequent processing the secured loop portions lie inside the packets and the tags outside. The process allows relatively precise location of the loops so that packets can be produced with the loops in a peripheral channel (P) sealed from the contents of the packets but able to move to contract the package when the ends of the loop are pulled.

Abstract: A method is provided for enhancing a digital image without distortion of the color. The result is an adjusted image which preserves the essential color of each and every dot in the input digital image while varying the effective light gathering power - like a virtual flash. The image enhancement is performed in RGB color space and comprises determining the maximum strength of the R, G, and B of a dot's RGB triplet and similarly for all dots. The dot maximums are scaled through a scaling function which is constrained in domain and range to the system's dynamic range. The same scaling factor that is applied to a dot maximum is also applied to each of R, G and B in the triplet. Preferably, a continuous scaling function is provided which smoothly approaches the minimum and maximum of the system's dynamic range for providing an aesthetically pleasing enhancement while maintaining true color. In a forensic embodiment, a portion of the image can be selected in RGB color space and normalized, to substantially the entire dynamic range, thereby emphasizing the area of interest, all without affecting the ratios of R, G and B for maintaining true color.

Abstract: The present invention realizes a communication system between a road and a vehicle which performs communication between a road communication station and a vehicle-mounted mobile station in a cell, utilizing an OFDM modulation method, in which interference between carriers does not occur even when a vehicle runs at high speed and Doppler shift increases, which prevents occurrence of the degradation in communication quality. After detecting the velocity of a vehicle in the cell, the space between frequencies of subcarriers of OFDM is increased as the detected velocity of the vehicle becomes higher. Assuming that an occupied bandwidth of frequency assigned according to the Radio Law is fixed in a radio wave, the number of subcarriers within the occupied bandwidth of frequency is reduced (thinned out). Even when the vehicle runs at high speed, the interference between carriers does not occur, thereby allowing high-quality data communication. Moreover, since the number of vehicles present in the cell is small, a drop in the data transmission rate due to a phenomenon related to the number of subcarriers can be coped with by the present invention. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A pump used to infuse a medical liquid into a patient is autoprimed under the control of a microprocessor that monitors and adjusts a priming sequence to minimize the accumulation of small air bubbles within a pumping chamber of the cassette. Small air bubbles can be created by the agitation of liquid and air within the cassette during priming, and as a result of changing pressure conditions within the cassette. Adherence of the air bubbles on the walls of the pumping chamber can negatively affect performance of the pump. The microprocessor controls the flow of liquid into the pump cassette from a liquid supply to establish a layer of liquid at the bottom of the air trap, thereby preventing air bubbles within the air trap from moving into the pumping chamber. The layer of liquid acts as a one-way valve, allowing air to rise up from the pumping chamber and pass through the liquid layer into the air trap, but preventing air from passing through the liquid layer and down into the pumping chamber. The microprocessor then back primes the cassette until air is removed from the proximal liquid line connecting the liquid supply to the cassette. At that point, liquid is pumped from the liquid supply to forward prime the cassette until air is removed from the pumping chamber and a distal liquid line.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for the production of optically pure (S)-beta-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone through the hydrogenation of substituted carboxylic acid derivatives. A solution containing 1 to 50% by weight of a substituted carboxylic acid derivative is fed at a WHSV of 0.1 to 10 h-1, to a fixed bed reactor which is filled with a catalyst and maintained at a reaction temperature of 50 to 550° C. under a halogen partial pressure of 15 to 5,500 psig. The catalyst is composed of a noble metal as a catalytically effective ingredient which is impregnated in an inorganic oxide as a support. The molar ratio of the hydrogen to the substituted carboxylic acid derivative is maintained at a molar ratio of 1:1 to 10:1. The process can produce optically pure (S)-beta-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone with higher purities at higher yields than can conventional techniques. In addition to being relatively simple and environmentally friendly, the process is so economically favorable as to apply to industrial production.

Abstract: A postage meter (franking machine) uses a digital print head such as an ink-jet or thermal transfer or dot-matrix print head, for which it is necessary to know the velocity of the mail piece passing by the print head. Two collimated monochromatic beams strike the mail piece, one at an angle leading the mail piece velocity and the other at an angle lagging the mail piece velocity. The beams converge yielding a sensing region filled with a diffraction pattern. The mail piece, assumed to be rough at a scale that is appropriate for the velocity measurement, moves at some velocity. A detector detects light intensity (photon flux) at a small region within the sensing region, and the intensity signal has a frequency that is proportional to the mail piece velocity. The frequency is detected or measured, the instantaneous velocity is derived therefrom, and the velocity is used to control the print head. In this way a two-dimensional print image (postage indicium) is faithfully printed on the mail piece with minimal distortion even in the event of non-constant velocity of the mail piece. <IMAGE>
