Abstract: The invention concerns an ultra broadband radar: It also concerns a modulator in particular for microwave switching over a very short period. The radar comprises a modulator modulating a carrier microwave, said modulator comprising: a microwave mixer (21), means for generating a modulation signal (23). The microwave is inputted on the mixer input and the modulation signal (22) on the other input, the mixer output signal being supplied to the radar transmitting means. Advantageously, the modulation signal can be pulsed and of very short duration. A local oscillator (1) operating as a free oscillator, supplies the microwave to be modulated. The invention is particularly useful for assisting parking of motor vehicles. More generally, it is applicable to all operations requiring low-cost range high resolution detection.

Abstract: The performance of a double-cone device (1) is increased,
not only by moving the gap or inlet openings (22) a short
distance into the exit cone (47), but also by making the
conicity  3  (55) of the so-formed small diffuser less than
the conicity  2  (109) of the remaining part (53) of the exit
cone. Double cone units (7, 60), particularly the ones with
this improved diffuser, may be used in pump installations

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant d'éliminer de manière sélective des ions métalliques d'intérêt d'une solution (12), telle que les eaux résiduaires provenant d'un processus de polissage mécanico-chimique. Le procédé consiste à mettre en contact une solution (12) renfermant des particules solides, un agent oxydant et une première concentration d'ions métalliques avec une résine d'échange ionique (20), telle qu'une résine de poly-4-vinylpyridine réticulée. Cette dernière résiste aux dommages occasionnés par l'agent oxydant et est opérationnelle lorsqu'elle rentre en contact avec la solution (12), de manière à échanger des ions métalliques sélectionnés dans la solution destinée aux ions préférés sélectionnés dans la résine d'échange ionique, ce qui produit ainsi une solution traitée (22) dotée d'une seconde concentration d'ions métalliques qui est inférieure à la première. La présente invention concerne également un appareil (100) et un système (500) utilisés conjointement avec le procédé de cette invention.

Abstract: The invention provides a device for reproducing a
three-dimensional image with a background, which device
reproduces a three-dimensional image standing out from a
background picture. 
     The device includes a white-color point light source
array and a color transmission spatial distribution filter
having a function of specially weighting intensity and color
of light. These components reproduce a three-dimensional
image by generating a group of light rays which can be seen
as if a three-dimensional color object standing out from the
background picture is present actually. Color and/or
intensity weights are imparted to the color transmission
spatial distribution filter, except for a transmission
portion thereof, in such a manner that the background picture
of the three-dimensional image can be seen at the vicinity of
the white-color point light source array or the color
transmission spatial distribution filter. 
     The device can be applied to standing-out displays,
standing-out signboards, and wall-mounted show windows.

Abstract: To authenticate an Internet web site, the web site is verified each time it is accessed by a user browser (12). On receipt of a page request, the web site generates a web page into which is embedded a URL site address or other unique identifier. A cookie, link to an image or java applet or similar, for execution of the verification process may also be embedded or may be resident on the user browser. At the user, the browser instantiates the cookie, link to image or applet and extracts the URL site address or unique identifier which is sent, together with user ID to a verification server (16). The server performs comparison, comparing the URL address or unique identifier with a record of the correct identifier and/or URL address. Based on the comparison, an approval status is generated and sent back to the browser. This is displayed as a graphic in the browser or in any other way. The graphic includes an animated portion to increase security. The graphic also includes a user generated code or challenge which is stored on the verification server and which is sent back to the user upon successful authentication.
