Abstract: The number of high luminance lines whose luminance value
is equal to or greater than a predetermined value among the
lines contained in a thinned image of an image picked up by
a telephoto camera oriented toward the iris position of an
authentication object is compared with a set value. In case
the number of high luminance lines equal to or greater than
the set value exists, an iris illuminating direction is switched
to obtain the illuminating direction where the number of high
luminance lines is smaller than the set value, the iris is
illuminated in the illuminating direction thus obtained and
a focus position of the iris is searched for using a thinned
image of an image picked up by the telephoto camera to acquire
an iris image as an object of authentication. This rapidly
acquires an iris image containing only a small amount of
illuminating light.

Filed: 2002-06-05
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de rétrécissement de raie basé sur un réseau de diffraction, destiné à des lasers de rétrécissement de raie produisant des faisceaux laser haute énergie. Une fixation de réseau de diffraction en flexion est obtenue, qui élimine virtuellement la tension sur le réseau causée par une dilatation thermique différencielle entre le réseau et la structure d'enveloppe. Le réseau de diffraction, qui est constitué d'une surface en aluminium très mince disposée sur un substrat de verre épais à très faible pouvoir de dilatation, est fixé à une structure d'enveloppe en aluminium au moyen d'une fixation de réseau en flexion. Au moins un raccord souple est installé dans la fixation de réseau pour permettre la dilatation et la contraction thermique du substrat. Dans certaines formes de réalisation, la fixation comprend une plaque métallique, et le raccord souple est un connecteur flexible en H (124) muni de quatre pattes (126), qui est usiné dans la plaque métallique. Dans une autre forme de réalisation, l'objet de l'invention comprend deux connecteurs flexibles en H. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, le raccord souple est un assemblage à queue simple qui permet de faire coulisser une extrémité de la fixation relativement à l'autre extrémité.

Abstract: A control system for operating a hydraulic system (10) includes a user input device (47) which generates an input signal indicating desired movement of a hydraulic actuator (16). A mapping routine (50) converts the input signal into a velocity command indicating a desired actuator velocity. A valve opening routine (56) transforms the velocity command into a flow coefficient which characterizes fluid flow through the valve assembly (25) and from the flow coefficient produces a set of control signals designating levels of electric current to apply to valves (21-24) within the valve assembly. A pressure controller (64) regulates pressure in the supply line (14) in response to the velocity command. When the hydraulic system (10) has a plurality of functions (11,20), the control system adjusts each velocity command to equitably apportion fluid to each function, when the aggregate flow being demanded by the functions exceeds the total flow available from a source.
