Abstract: An apparatus for generating an image to be displayed on a display screen from data defining a model including a plurality of opaque and translucent features. The image is intended to represent a view of the model from a predetermined eyepoint and is made up from an array of screen space pixels to be displayed by a raster scanning process. Each pixel is of uniform colour and intensity, and the pixels together define an image area. The image area is divided into an array of sub-areas each of which covers at least one pixel. For each feature in the model that is potentially visible from the eyepoint, a test is conducted to determine which of the sub-areas is at least partially covered by that feature. A list of feature identifiers is produced in respect of each sub-area, the list for any one sub-area identifying features which at least partially cover that sub-area. The position in screen space of at least one sampling point within each sub-area is determined. For each sub-area in turn, and for each sampling point a test is conducted to determine which of the features in that sub-area's list cover that sampling point. For each feature which covers a sampling point, a function of the distance from the eyepoint to that feature at the sampling point is determined. Feature describing data is stored for each sampling point within a sub-area, the stored data being indicative of at least the distance of the opaque feature which covers the sampling point and is nearest to the eyepoint and the distance and translucency of at least one nearer translucent feature which covers the sampling point. An output is produced for each sampling point within a sub-area, the sampling point output corresponding to the combined effects of the features identified by the stored data. An output for each pixel within a sub-area is produced, the pixel output corresponding to the combined effects of the sampling point outputs for all sampling points which contribute to that pixel, and the pixel outputs are displayed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Nach dem Verfahren wird der flüssige Stoff, z.B. der Schlamm homogenisiert und auf eine Temperatur von 30-60 °C erwärmt. Der angewärmte flüssige Stoff wird unter einem Überdruck von 2-4 bar strömen gelassen und durch unmittelbaren Einführen von einer Temperatur von 130-151 °C und einen Druck von 1-3 bar aufweisendem Dampf in den flüssigen Stoff wird dessen Temperatur innerhalb einer Zeitdauer von 1-2 Sekunden auf etwa 130-150 °C erhöht, wodurch eine Körnchenbildung im Schlamm verläuft. Der flüssige Stoff wird dann unter Aufrechterhaltung seines Druckes und seiner erhöhten Temperatur für eine Zeitdauer von etwa 60-300 Sekunden weiter in Strömung gehalten. Daraus folgend wird der flüssige Stoff durch Verminderung seines Druckes auf etwa 0,01-0,02 bar während einer Zeitdauer von 1-2 Sekunden adiabatisch expandieren gelassen. Der expandierte flüssige Stoff wird dann in Wasser, Wasser und Feststoffverunreinigungen enthaltendes Fett sowie in eine feuchte eiweisshaltige Festphase getrennt. Kennzeichnend für die Anlage ist, dass sie ein zur Erwärmung des flüssigen Stoffes dienendes Mittel, sowie zur Weiterleitung des erwärmten flüssigen Stoffes dienende Leitung (18) besitzt, die an die Erhitzereinheit (5) angeschlossen ist.

Abstract: In the improvement to a locking device (3) of this invention, a slider (11) is mounted for sliding by a card key with tumblers (21 - 25) being pushed in the sliding direction by the card key. In addition, since the tumblers (21 - 25) are pushed into the slider (11), the slider (11) does not prevent the card key from sliding. Consequently, unlocking or locking operations can be attained by sliding the card key along the tips of the tumblers (21 - 25) without stopping of the card key by a step portion. Therefore, the improvement to a locking device (3) of the invention effects smoother unlocking or locking operation than a conventional locking device. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A new and improved laser light beam homogenizer for transforming a laser beam with spatially inhomogeneous intensity into a beam with a more nearly spatially uniform intensity pattern is presented. The light beam is diverged by a lens and presented to an integrator. The integrator transforms the beam into a beam with a more uniform illumination. The uniform illumination beam is then impinged on control optics to limit the divergence of the uniform beam and control higher order distortion in the system. This beam may then be illuminated at a predetermined distance by a projecting optic lens. The laser light beam homogenizer of this invention is particularly well suited for use in an imaging lidar system. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An interactive electronic thermostat operates to communicate with an installer through an audible or visual display and keypad to instruct the installer to perform tasks and enter observations to effect proper connections at the thermostat of heater/air conditioner wires in spite of the absence of labels identifying the functions of those wires. The thermostat requires entry of coded indicia representing operator-observed conditions in the system in response to displayed instructions carried out by the operator. Control circuits are automatically assigned functional tasks in response to the operator-observed conditions entered into the system. Different program routines are invoked depending upon the number of system wires and the type of heater/air conditioner being controlled. Under appropriate circumstances, messages are displayed informing the operator/homeowner that the thermostat is incompatible, or has no advantageous use, with the heater/air conditioner. In one embodiment the installer need only connect the wires to the thermostat terminals one time; the thermostat configures its internal connection paths in response to installer-entered indicia to assure proper control of the system. Another embodiment incorporates a safety backup system to automatically activate the HVAC system in the event that normal operation of the thermostat is interrupted and the temperature in the conditioned area falls or rises beyond a predetermined range.
