Abstract: An endodontic apparatus and related method for
the instant detection of the anatomical structure of a
tooth and for the restoration of a dead or severely
decayed tooth using induced fluorescence spectroscopy. A
root canal probe having an optical fiber through its
center transmits excitation light into the tooth's root
canal. The excitation light induces the tissue within
the root canal to fluoresce. The fluorescent light is
collected by the optical fiber and transmitted back to a
sensor that generates electrical signals indicative of
the intensity of light within predetermined wavelength
bands. The electrical signals are processed to identify
the tissues within the root canal. The probe may include
a slightly conical metal surface having flutes for
shaving and removing dentin from within the root canal.
Using the fluorescent emission properties of the tissues
of components of a tooth, the entrance of the root canal
is located. The root canal is cleaned and shaped and the
apex of the root canal located using the difference
between the fluorescence spectrum of the apex and the
root canal. The root canal is sealed and filled by a
light cure restorative delivered into the root canal
through a tube. The light cure restorative is activated
by light transmitted into the root canal by an optical
fiber. The light activation and polymerization of the
light cure restorative can be controlled by monitoring
the intensity of the restorative's fluorescence spectrum.

Abstract: The apparatus for encoding a plurality of digital information signals, having at least a first input unit for receiving a first digital information signal and a second input unit for receiving a second digital information signal. A signal combination unit combines the first and second digital information signal to generate a first combination signal. First and second data compression units compress the first and second digital information signal so as to obtain first and second data reduced digital information signals. First, second, and third masked threshold determining units determine first, second and third masked thresholds respectively from the first, second digital information signals and the combination signal respectively. A selection unit selects one masked threshold from the first and third masked threshold so as to obtain a first selected masked threshold. Preferably, the first selected masked threshold is the smallest of the first and third masked thresholds. The first data compression unit compresses the first digital information signal in response to the first selected masked threshold. A formatting unit combines the first and second data reduced digital information signals into a transmission signal for transmission via a transmission medium. The choice is made between at least two masked thresholds, including the masked threshold derived from the information signal itself and the masked threshold derived from another signal. The other signal may be a combination signal that includes the information signal.

Abstract: A diffuser for aerating a fluid, and particularly for aeration in waste water treatment tanks, is formed in an elongate configuration by manufacturing a base plate from an extrusion cut to the desired length. A perforated elastomeric membrane is secured to the base plate by pressing sealing strips along the elongate edges of the membrane into corresponding grooves formed in the base plate extrusion. The ends of the membrane are sealed to the base plate by end strips or clamps. Air is introduced through apertures in the base plate causing the membrane to inflate away from the base plate forming an interior compartment for the passage of air along the diffuser. Apparatus for securing the diffuser to a horizontal header pipe is also described.

liquid crystal sheet 2 is used to write a signature, the
handwriting of the signature is liquid crystal
representation on the display area of liquid crystal sheet
2 and this handwriting of the signature will disappear by
itself after a predetermined period of time. Further,
signature verifying apparatus 6 reads the handwriting
coordinate information of a signature output from coordinate
input unit 3 for detecting the handwriting coordinate
information of a signature and verifies this handwriting
coordinate information with the handwriting coordinate
information of signatures which have been registered
beforehand.
