Abstract: The present invention provides an exterior skin for a vehicle that includes angularly distributed, individual, fiber-optic elements formed into the exterior skin of a composite, metal, or other material matrix. The vehicle exterior lighting system includes a central light source for providing optical energy of a desired luminescence. A plurality of optical channels of the lighting system transmit the optical energy and are formed from an optically conductive material. The optically conductive material associates through the outer skin of the structural material. The optical channels include terminating ends of the optically conductive material and are essentially flush with the outer skin of the structural material. This permits transmitting the optical energy through the structural material. The invention also includes means for transmitting the optical energy from the central light source to the optical channels. This allows the optical channels to distribute the optical energy from the structural material in the desired directions and at desired intensity levels.

Abstract: A method and system for electonic entry of information uses an electronic reading device that includes an optical detector for detecting a portion of an address pattern on a specially formatted surface that is adjacent to the electonic reading device. The address pattern is designed such that an exact position of the electronic reading device with respect to the specially formatted surface can be determined by detecting only a small portion of the overall address pattern. The electronic reading device can include a sensor for detecting contact between a tip of the electronic reading device and the specially formatted surface. In addition, a processor in the electonic reading device receives the detected positional data at least when the sensor detects contact between the tip of the electonic reading device and the specially formatted surface. In addition or as an alternative, the electronic reading device can include a writing means that can be selectively activated and deactivated, wherein positions are detected regardless of whether the writing means is in an activated or deactivated mode.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of signal coding includes an analysis-by-synthesis algorithm for sinusoidal modeling. An input signal to be modeled is divided in time to produce a plurality of frames. Functions from a dictionary are selected to form an approximation of the section of the input signal contained in each frame, with the selection carried out based on a psychoacoustic norm. The function dictionary is made up of complex exponentials and these are selected iteratively to make up the section of the input signal contained in each frame. The psychoacoustic norm adapts after each iteration according to the changing masking threshold of the residual signal to be modeled in the next step.

Abstract: To automatically and continuously conducting the layout, the blocking and the process of grinding an edge of three types of lenses, i.e., a single-vision lens, a progressing multifocal lens and a multifocal lens. The prism amount and the like values are measured at a position A0 on the optical surface of an uncut lens and a position for calculation of the optical center A1 is obtained by calculation. When the distance between A0 and A1 is equal to a specific value or smaller than the specific value, A0 is temporarily decided as the blocking position and A1 is decided as the optical center. When the distance exceeds the specific value, the position for the measurement of the prism amount and the like is changed to A1 and the second position for calculation of the optical center A2 is obtained by calculation similarly in accordance with an equation using the values obtained by the measurements. By conducting similar steps, the optical center is decided and the position of the blocking is temporarily decided. It is examined whether a processing interference takes place at the temporarily decided position of the blocking. When the absence of the processing interference is confirmed, the blocking is conducted at the decided position. When the processing interference is estimated to take place, a position without the processing interference is selected from the positions obtained as above and the blocking is conducted at the selected position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A waveguide component has a slab waveguide (104), a rib waveguide (101), and a mode transition section where the rib waveguide and the slab waveguide are adjacent, and where the rib waveguide is tapered (110), to provide optical coupling, and lateral confinement rib waveguides (102,103) are provided along the slab waveguide in the mode transition section to confine light spreading laterally. The lateral confinement ribs can be formed in the same step with the same mask as used for the taper, to ensure alignment with the taper. They can be arranged on either side of the taper. The lateral confinement ribs are significant for enabling a mode transition section which couples with low loss. In particular, it reduces the need for the taper to be so fine, or the taper to be made in both vertical and horizontal axes, both of which cause fabrication difficulties. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A ribbon used in binding and decorating includes two separate superposed flat films of polyolefin plastic, which are bonded or glued together to form an intimate union, the films differing form each other by their elastic elongaton and/or heat-shrinkage properties such that, on leaving the production equipment, the difference between the films results in a different extent of shortening between the two films, to thereby cause curving of their constituted assembly. The curving is contained within a range of elastic deformation compatible with the curvature of the subsequent winding of the ribbon and such as to create spontaneous curling of the ribbon at the ambient temperatures at which it is used, as soon as it is unwound.
