Abstract: A scanner arrangement for optically scanning an object in a sequence of scanning steps with a driveable object stage and a front objective lens on a carriage moveable parallel to the object stage. The object stage is drivable during the sequence of scanning steps in order to achieve a continuous movement and the objective lens carriage with the front objective lens can be driven forwards in at least one of the scanning steps with a speed which is not equal to the speed of the object stage for a substantial period of time relative to the length of time taken for the at least one scanning step to be performed. The result is that the relative motion of the front objective lens and the object stage during the at least one scanning step allows acquisition of an unblurred image and this corrects for increased magnification and lens aberration.

Abstract: Devices and methods useful for non-invasively measuring and indicating a rate of fluid flow are disclosed. In one embodiment, a sensor housing adapted to received fluid flow therethrough is provided. A radio frequency tag and a masking element can be disposed in the sensor housing. The masking element and the radio frequency tag can be configured to move relative to one another. The relative positions or movement can alter the response of the radio frequency tag to a wireless signal (which can be emitted from an external reading device, for example) and thereby indicate a rate of fluid flowing through the housing. For example, in some embodiments, the masking element can selectively cover at least part of the radio frequency tag in correspondence to the flow rate, which can change a characteristic of the radio frequency tag's response to the wireless signal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des câbles à fibres optiques non gainés ayant des éléments de résistance, des procédés de fabrication des câbles et des procédés de fabrication des éléments de résistance. De façon spécifique, les concepts de l'invention empêchent la distorsion et/ou l'influence de la forme de section transversale des câbles à fibres optiques non gainés en raison de forces de torsion provenant des éléments de résistance. Par exemple, un câble à fibres optiques non gainé de l'invention utilise des éléments de résistance avec une structure à torsion morte pour empêcher la distorsion de celui-ci. Un autre agencement de câble à fibres optiques non gainé utilise des éléments de résistance sur des côtés opposés de la cavité où les forces de torsion provenant des éléments de résistance sont dans des directions opposées pour influencer la forme de section transversale de celui-ci. D'autres aspects de l'invention concernent des procédés de fabrication des câbles à fibres optiques non gainés.
